Question about posting to the group

[Guest guest]

I can get my email forwarded to work and read the digest. However, I

made an attempt to respond to the group via email and I guess that

doesn't post to the actual forum? Or it didn't do it b/c it probably

showed a different email address... or my work sucks and blocked it

somehow. *grumble* I can't post via the web page at work. I'm

hoping that they will unblock Yahoo Groups b/c of its role in our work

with our patrons. Until then, is there a way to post to the group via

email that doesn't take you to the web page? What does that reply to

group email actually do or where does it actually go?

I like to be able to post as I read stuff that is meaningful rather

than 10-72 hours after the fact.

My other email from work is

cgraves(at)heitechservices(dot)com

Just in case it needs to be added to the listing or something?

Thanks!

I do know if you aren't subbed to any Yahoo Groups with that addy you will have

to add it yourself. They then send you an email back and you have to veryify it

as your email. I think you are allowed to use up to 5 email addys to sub to

Yahoo Groups. You just have to 'get the ball rolling' then you can go to the

group page and change your preferred email addy within the preferences. The bad

thing is you can only use one addy for a group. If you change it to your work

addy, you will only be able to respond from that addy. They used to have it so

you could choose more than one addy to use but I think they changed it, as I

can't find that option any longer. You COULD switch them back and forth though.

You can go in on say late Sunday night and change it to your work addy, then on

friday afternoons switch it to your home addy. It doesn't take more than a few

minutes to take effect.

Peace and Love
