Cannot send a message from gmail?

Question

I sent a message with the following header:

From: "Byon Garrabrant" <[e-mail]>

To: [e-mail]

Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2008 10:45:00 -0800

Subject: Re: [lvbots] Sensor Data From ROD the Robot

and received the following from yahoogroups:

We are unable to deliver the message from <[e-mail]> to <[e-mail]>.

The email address used to send your message is not subscribed to this group. If you are a member of this group, please be aware that you may only send messages to this group using the email address(es) you have registered with Yahoo! Groups.

When I click on Edit Membership at yahoogroups, I see both addresses are there:

Email Address

Choose the email address that you would like group messages sent to.

* [e-mail]

* [e-mail]

[ others removed ]

* (Add new email address)

Any idea why I cannot post from gmail?

Answer 1

You can only send an e-mail posting to a Yahoo Group from the one e-mail address that is associated with the Group.  In other words, the e-mail address that Group messages are sent to is the only one you can post a message from.  If you want to send a message to the Group from your Gmail account, then you&#039;re going to have to change that selection on the Edit Membership page to your Gmail address, followed by clicking Save Changes (towards the lower-right-hand corner).
