your work group)
2) Write Objectives of your group on word format

address, search group categories, etc
(but don’t forget to record on a paper for future editing and alteration
etc)

your group from your alternate e mail address which you provided during your
step 2 (above)

Files ( Ref # 8)
Section
8 (i)
|
What kinds of files can I share? |
|
You can upload any type of file to the Files area. We support photo and image file formats (JPEG, GIF, BMP, etc), Microsoft Office documents, sound files (MP3, Real Media, WAV, AIFF, etc.), HTML files, and more. If we recognize the file type you are uploading, you will see a special icon denoting its type. |
|
How do I upload a file? |
Note: File upload only works with Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer, version 3.0 or higher. If you use IE v3.0, you will need to download a special software patch from Microsoft |
|
How do I organize files into folders? |
|||||
|
Before you upload to the Files area, you may want to create some folders to help organize your documents. For example, if you are starting a project and know you want to share information, create a folder within the Files area for your project files. To create a folder, click the Create Folder button, type in a name and description, and click the Create button. Your new folder is located inside whatever folder you were viewing at the time. You can create any number of folders, at any number of levels. |
|||||
|
Why can't I open a file I've downloaded? |
|||||
|
You may not have the program necessary to run the particular file type, or the file may be designed for a different kind of computer. Recheck the file description, or contact the member who posted the file for more details about the file type. |
|||||
|
|||||
|
SECTION 8(II) How do I designate files to be automatically emailed to members upon certain conditions? |
|||||
|
By checking a box in the Files area, you can set files to be mailed out upon certain conditions, (e.g., when members subscribe, unsubscribe, are pending approval, are banned, etc.). This is a great way to send out FAQ files, welcome messages, and good-bye messages. Plain text files are auto-delivered as regular email messages. Anything else is enclosed as an attachment to an email. You can choose for files to be mailed to group members as follows:
For restricted groups, you can also have them sent:
A complete list of the files you've set for auto-delivery appears in the Settings area. How much space
is there per group for files ? |
|
||||
|
Each group has 20 megabytes server space allocated for Files. You can upload any number of smaller files (up to the limit of 20 megabytes) or a few larger files. Note, however, that each individual file you upload has a 5 megabyte limit per upload. If you attempt to upload a single file that is larger than the space remaining, or that is larger than 5 megabytes, you will get an error. Note: If your group fills up the space and you want to add more files, you'll need to delete existing files. Or, you can use the Links area to point to other locations on the Web where your group stores files. |

|
What does "bouncing" mean? |
|
If your email account ("jane_doe@isp.com") refuses to accept email from other accounts, then your account is said to "bounce" email. This usually means that if someone sends you an email, their message is returned to them with an error from your Internet service provider (ISP). If Yahoo! Groups gets such an error back from your account after sending you a message, we consider your account to be "bouncing" email. |
What are
“bouncing” members ?
|
If messages sent to a member are consistently returned to Yahoo! Groups with an error, that member is considered "bouncing." Their Yahoo! Groups account is deactivated, and group messages will not be delivered to the account. Once an account is considered bouncing, Yahoo! Groups will send a series of test messages to the member. If the test messages are returned as undeliverable, then the account will continue to bounce. However, if a message is delivered and not returned as undeliverable within five days after it was sent, the account will automatically be reactivated. Members may also manually reactivate their accounts by visiting their My Groups page. |
|
How do I reactivate "bouncing" members? |
|
Yahoo! Groups uses an automated system to test and reactivate email accounts that bounce. Also, users may also make a "Reactivation Request" to un bounce their account or an account in a group that they moderate. Automatic Reactivation Yahoo! Groups periodically sends automated test ("probe") messages to bouncing members. If a test message is not returned to Yahoo! Groups with an error, we assume the message was successfully delivered and automatically reactivate the member's account. This process does not require any action but the moderator or member. Manual Reactivation To bypass Yahoo! Groups automated process and manually reactivate a member account for a group you moderate:
If you want send Re-activation request to bouncing members, you have to send request one by one. Yahoo don’t provide service to send Reactivation request to all bouncing member by one click.
Unsubscribe Member To unsubscribe bouncing members:
|
|
What is the difference between "hard
bounce" and "soft bounce"? |
|
Yahoo! Groups organizes bounces into two types: hard bounce and soft bounce. Hard Bounce
In this case, your Yahoo! Groups account will be deactivated and set to "Bouncing." You will not receive any group email until your account is reactivated. Soft Bounce |
|
Manual Reactivation To bypass Yahoo! Groups automated process and manually reactivate a member account for a group you moderate:
AN ACTIVE MEMBER ALSO DON’T RECEIVE MAIL ? |
|
Some time ISP / Hosting company load some software in their system by which members e mail account treat yahoo group mail as SPAM or JUNK. For example some software treat those address as Junk or Spam from where they receive mail daily or some software search some KEY WORDS. If those words are found then mail is treated as Junk or Spam . |
Banned Members (Ref 13-C)
Here you can Ban any member to receive
and send any mail or to avail any privileges of the group. Those Members Can be Banned (i) who don’t want to be member but you want
to keep their addresses in your listings (ii) due to any other reason.
Drawback of Banning any member : If the member want to be regular member , he
will receive SORRY Message. Instead of Banning any member their Message
Delivery Status should be changed to “ No mail”

E MAIL COMMANDS ( REF 17 B 4) The Commands activity category records all messages sent to the various command addresses (those used to administer your group via email) for your group, including:
MOERATOR ACTIVITY ( REF 17 B 5 ) The Moderator activity category records the various moderator-only actions for the group. A moderator uploading a file to the shared files area would not be recorded under Moderator activity, only under Features, but a moderator changing the group's settings will be recorded under Moderator activity.
Examples of activity recorded in this category include editing of group settings, editing of member settings, and message and member moderation.
How can I search the activity logs
?
|
Each category of the activity log can be searched individually. To search a given category, select that category by clicking on the category link, then enter a search query into the search box on the upper-right corner of the page. You can then do a substring search on the email addresses of members and moderators. Searching will return up to 1000 results. Only the latest entries will be returned.

SUBJECT TAG
By default, a text tag is added to the subject line of each message from group members, for example, "Yahoogroups_announce." This subject tag helps your members identify the message as coming from your group, and can be useful in sorting and organizing email. Yahoo! Groups recommends that you do not change the subject tag. If you must change it
, make certain that the new subject tag is consistent with the theme of your group.

Who is affected by this
change?
This change applies to all groups. However, only members who view attachments
in the Messages section will be affected by the change. Again, please remember
that email attachments will continue to be delivered to members who receive
email messages from the group.
What if I do not move
my group's files from the Messages section to the Files or Photos areas before
they are removed? Can I get them back?
Moderators should move any files they wish to keep to the Files and Photos
areas immediately. Unfortunately, once the files are deleted from the Messages
section, they cannot be recovered.
Will messages with attachments be deleted?
Please note: all of your group messages will remain. Only the attachments will
be deleted.
