Guest guest Posted December 7, 2008 Report Share Posted December 7, 2008 this IS spam. I've been getting regular requests to register at grouply the last month. I check out the website grouply, and looked around to see what people said about it.. all I can say is be very wary. They want your password, and if you do any shopping, I would advise not joining this " grouply " site. My opinion.. > > Hi everyone, > > Hope this is ok to post here...

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Irene, how do you 'opt out'? I have looked at the web page and don't see where I can do that. Also, I evidently do not know how to trim these posts. I can totally delete an email, but do not seem to have the ability to delete certain parts of them. Thanks. ________________________________ From: Irene de Villiers <furryboots@...> Sent: Monday, December 8, 2008 12:35:16 AM Subject: Re: OT: My list of On Dec 7, 2008, at 6:58 PM, Maureen Moulden wrote: > I am not the moderator, but this is NOT an okay post..... this is > right up there with SPAM.

Here’s how: Go to http://www.grouply.com/owner_controls.php, type in your group name, and click Send Email. An email containing an Owner Authorization Code (OAC) is sent to your group’s owner address. (All of the owners and moderators of your group will receive this email, so you should let them know that you sent it!) Open this email and copy the OAC to your clipboard using Ctrl-C or the “copy” command. Return to the Owner Access Controls page. If the page does not display “Enter Owner Authorization Code for Grouply Access Controls”, then go to http://www.grouply.com/owner_controls.php?c=1 . Paste the Owner Authorization Code into the box and click Submit. You are taken to the “Set Grouply Access Controls for Your Group” page. In Step 2, select Invites Disabled and click Save. I do not want my group members to use Grouply to access a group that I own. What do I do? A group owner can block her group from being accessed through Grouply at any time. Here’s a link to the Grouply Owner Controls page that will enable you to block your group from Grouply: http:// www.grouply.com/owner_controls.php . You do not need to register with Grouply to use Grouply Owner Controls, and you do not need to submit any personal information. You can use Grouply Owner Controls whether or not your group is already in Grouply. The process to block a group is relatively straighforward and should take only about a minute to complete. Here are the steps: Go to http://www.grouply.com/owner_controls.php, type in your group name, and click Send Email. An email containing an Owner Authorization Code (OAC) is sent to your group’s owner address.

Your group is blocked. To verify that your changes were accepted, repeat step 3 above, and note that the button is set to Disabled. After you block your group from Grouply, all current Grouply users will no longer be able to use Grouply to access this group, and they will receive an email to this effect. Group members who join Grouply in the future will not be able to start using Grouply for the group. Here is an example of what group members will see for a blocked group on the Update Group Access page in Grouply. To enable access to a group you previously blocked, repeat steps 1 to 4 above, select Enable on the “Set Grouply Access Controls for Your Group” page and click Save. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------- > Also, I evidently do not know how to trim these posts.
