Group Messages not delivered? How to check.   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #1 of 2 < Prev |
Occasionally people ask me to check whether an email list has been quiet for a while, worried that they are somehow not getting the messages.   You can check this yourself, anytime you're online, by logging into the Yahoo Group's page.   Cut & paste or type this URL into your web browser's address field, but inserting the exact name of the group you want to check where indicated:

        http://groups.yahoo/group/INSERT_GROUP_NAME_HERE/messages

On this web page you'll see a list of all recent messages delivered to that group.   If this is consistent with the email messages you've received, than everything is probably working fine.

If you find messages on the group messages page which are not appearing your email inbox, check your Spam or Junk folder.   If you find list messages there, mark them as "not spam" and/or add the list's email address to your Address Book.   (Or adapt these instructions to whatever email application and service you use and how it filters junk mail).

Sometimes Yahoo or your ISP hiccups, and some people receive email messages hours, occasionally a day, later than others.

If you've checked everything above, and still believe messages (that are more than a day old) are getting lost in the aether, please let me know at Problems@....   If you have any other questions about email lists, or need list management services, please contact me at the email address below.

Thanks you.
