[App_rpt-users] Is this list back?

[Joe Leikhim]

I really don't understand the *_ignorance_* surrounding acceptance of 
groups.io and similar. They are like any other re-mailer.

Groups I/O provides a number of delivery options this (below) is the 
*_Digest format_* I use. You can click to reply to the group or an 
individual and it goes out just like e-mail from your mail client.

If you choose to receive individual e-mails, you receive an e-mail 
indiscernible from any other re mailer.  See example at bottom:

DIGEST Example:

INDIVIDUAL Mail Example:

Hello,

Because the group is restricted, you will need to approve their 
subscription before they can join.

NOTE: The pending subscription will expire after 14 days. If you do not 
take action within that time, the pending subscription will be 
automatically rejected.

Thank you for choosing Groups.io Groups.

Cheers,
The Groups.io Team
