Why don't my group at <span title="[e-mail],">MYFLORIDAFOROBAMA08@yahoo...</span> have no section for sending and receiving messages?

Question

messages are not being posted to this group, nor do I reeive emails from subscriptions that I've subscribed too because there's no message option in the table of contents, or the tool-bar, or message icon.

Answer 1

Hmmmmm.  I went to the Group&#039;s home page on the web to check, and there is a way for people to post messages, but I also see that previously posted messages aren&#039;t even available to Group members (meaning the Group owner must&#039;ve turned the Group&#039;s archives off or set them to Moderators only).  I further see that 14 messages have been posted so far this month.  Are you a member of this Group?  If so, are you set to Individual Email or Daily Digest or one of the other settings?  And how long have you been a member of this Group?

If you want to check the answer to my second question here, then log in to the Group&#039;s web site and go to its home page.  Then click Edit Membership in the middle of the top line (just below the ad if there is one).  Then scroll down to Step 2 Message Delivery, and see what the default selection is there.  If you want to change it, then select the choice you want to change it to; don&#039;t forget to click the Save Changes button near the lower-right-hand corner when you&#039;re done.

If you checked your message delivery settings per my previous paragraph and you were already on Individual Email or Daily Digest, plus you&#039;ve been a member since at least the beginning of May, and you haven&#039;t gotten any of those 14 messages in your Inbox, then you&#039;re having mail delivery issues.  If so, and my second Source below doesn&#039;t help, then it&#039;d probably be best for you to contact Yahoo Groups Customer Care, as they could provide the best help with these mail delivery issues; to do so, fill out the form at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/groups/... .

Answer 2

Unless its a private group it doesn&#039;t show in the group registry.

Answer 3

A Democrat who speaks poor English??  Now I&#039;ve seen it all!

Maybe they don&#039;t want you sending emails because you&#039;re ignorant and clearly uneducated.  Just a thought.

Answer 4

from looking at your group, if you&#039;re the owner-

posting tab is there and anyone can post

management- under group settings click messages- Posting and Archives (Edit) &lt;-- cick the edit- scroll to Archive Options, select members, click save changes

that&#039;ll fix that right up

if you&#039;re just a member, e-mail the owner- they have the archives closed which means there is no web reading of posts, must select individual or digest mail
