[TacAreaFC] ADMIN: UPDATES IN YAHOO! GROUPS

 

Hello Members!

We wanted to let everyone know that Yahoo! Groups has just implemented a new update to emails for all Yahoo! Group Members. This is NOT something that the Moderators with Tacoma Area Freecycle(TM) have implemented, it is from Yahoo! Groups. There is nothing we can do about it except to make our members aware of the change.

So far, it is only in beta testing stages where only certain groups will be participating (in which we do not have an option to be chosen or not).

Please read below about this new update to emails. It states that you can 'unsubscribe' to the Updates Email if you receive them.

If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to the folks at Yahoo! Groups.

Kind regards,
Your Friendly Tacoma Area Freecycle(TM) Moderators

UPDATE 4/28: The Updates Email is being enabled today for all users.

You can learn more about the Updates Email in our original post below and also find answers to many common questions on our Updates Email Help page.

We're currently beta testing a special version of group updates emails. This beta email allows you to keep up to date with what's going on across all your Yahoo! Groups in one email. This email however does not include individual messages so it is not a replacement to receiving your groups messages.

Unlike Daily Digests, group updates are only delivered when you or your Yahoo! Group members do any of the following activities in your groups:

Upload new photos
Add a link
Update (or create) a database
Create a poll
Add a new file
Add an application or an application entry

This is a brand new feature that we're testing out on a small set of users—you have the ability to unsubscribe (or re-subscribe) to these update emails at any time. Please note that this update email will not include your group's message activity.

To unsubscribe, simply click on the "Unsubscribe from the Updates Email" link in the footer of the email and you'll be unsubscribed.

We hope that you find this new way of staying updated on all the activity in your groups valuable.

Thanks.
