OT: kinda: filter your email so that it won't bounce and you can get all the pictures etc...

January 13, 2008

If you want to see all the posts yet not fill up your inbox do the following...

1. make a folder just for the group postings.

2. go to mail options (for Yahoo it is in the upper right hand corner of the

screen.

3. go to filters and add a new filter to your email.

4. where it says " to " add the email address

" Fibromyalgia_support_group "

5. save

6. make sure you change the email options at the group site for individual

emails.

try it and see what happens. It might take some adjusting as needed.

I use this for all of my groups. I belong to many and believe it or not this is

not the most busiest.

I hope this helps some of you

feel free to email me in Private for extra help.

Hi All,

This will be a bi-weekly returning mail so after you LEARN it then

just hit the delete button. However it wouldn¢t hurt you to read it

every now and then again as a refresher! I am doing this so all new

members will be able to see it.

We are losing a lot of members for 3 reasons! #1 the amount of mail

we receive!

#2 If they join and we are all in flares and the group looks

depressing they leave without giving us a chance.

First welcome to our Family but please Understand we are a LARGE

FAMILY! Therefore the amount of mail you receive can be overwhelming. DO

NOT JUST LEAVE US!! You do have several options to help with this. You

can be set to daily digest. That is where you will receive 1 mail with

25 e-mail in one. Then you can scan the top see what you are interested

in reading go to that number and read. Some when reading through the

digest will write the number of the post down that they want to reply to

then go back and reply to each either individual or all on one post.

Depending on the day you can receive from 2 to 6 digests a day. The

downfall of digest is you miss a lot of posts. If they have a graphic

attached or such then they will not appear in the digest it will tell you it

was deleted due to graphics or attachments NON-TEXT items.
