I'm a group owner; our group's membership type is "Restricted" which means that I must approve each request to join. When someone asks to join, Yahoo! sends me an e-Mail to inform me of the request. I can approve either by replying to the e-Mail, or via the Membership/Pending page in the group.
Unfortunately, my e-Mail "Out-of-Office" auto-responder replies to the Yahoo! message, so the first person who asks to join each time I've turned on "Out-of-Office" is automatically approved in my absence. This presents serious membership integrity issues, IMHO.
How do I configure group membership so that approval of a "Join" request can be made only via the group's Membership/Pending page, and not via e-Mail response?
