I'm setting up a group in my company GSuite account. I want the Email-address of the group:
to be public (i.e. Info# ...) so anybody can send email to it
I want all members to get the mail
I want that any member can answer the mail
and that by default the answer will be sent to the whole group and to the public email it came from.
I've succeeded with all but the last point. I can set it so the answer goes to the whle group, or to the external address, but I want both (why?: So all in the group know that that email has been taken care of). Is that possible?
As i could see the request you have made up is possible.
First 3 are very easy and basic requirement which is common in all big organizations. Make sure you have Paid Subscription to gsuite as under Legacy/Grandfathered/Free/Standard account the feature isn't included. For the last issue state the Solution is as follows
Login to Gsuite Admin
Click on Group on Dashboard
Select the Group you would like add the role to
Click on Access Settings
Once the page is load click On Settings then Under submenu click Email options
Find option called "Post replies" and select "To Entire Group"
After doing this when some other member of the group replies to an email it will send to entire group and to the sender is already under the reply algorithm.
Please let me know if need any other assistance. For better understandings i have attached an screenshot.
Hope this helps!
2021 - now you can find this in admin.google.com > groups > "group name" > settings, there "Publish posts" tick "External". See https://support.google.com/a/thread/63946400/cannot-set-who-can-post-permissions-to-anyone-on-the-web-for-new-groups?hl=en&msgid=70496603 .

In my docusign account as shown below, I have only the option of where I only want to final, completed document sent to the sender as confirmation. However, I am still receiving all the emails like viewing and such and do not want those email. I just want the completed one. Is there a way to set this up in the API (xml) or in the Docusign account somewhere?
enter image description here
You are showing the admin setting.
Instead, go to https://appdemo.docusign.com/preferences/notifications to find your personal preferences (which you can also find from the top menu of web app, select "preferences"
and it should look like this:
In my organisation, I have tried setting up my team member as having Basic Access and Stakeholder access.
However neither allow me to assign a work item to her.
She uses an gmail address to log in.
In my organisation->Users->User I make her a project administrator but it reverts to Custom.
In my project->Teams-> MyTeam
I can see we are both members
However when I go to assign a work item there is only 1 person in the combo box.
How do I enable the ability to assign work items to her?
[Update]
I think a Microsoft Account or AD login is needed
looking at this quick start
However if gmail accounts don't work then we should be prevented from adding them as users.
because I did not realize that I need to type part of the users name and click search.
I was mislead by the combo box with just my name in it.
When you invite a user, you are only inviting an email address and that could be Gmail, Apple, or Amazon. When they select the invitation link, they are taken to the experience where they are asked to sign in with their Microsoft account (MSA).
I'm an administrator of a Google apps domain and we recently reactivated an account which was suspended for around 6 months. Regular emails to this user are working well but emails to a group to which this user belongs does not seem to reach the user.
I tried deleting the user from the group and adding him again, but to no avail.
What might be the problem? And what is the solution to this?
You may refer with this thread. It suggested to check the email delivery setting and the spam folder. Here's another reference which might also help: Not getting a group’s emails
If you’re not getting emails from your group, check your email delivery setting:
Sign in to Google Groups.
Click My Groups.
Choose a group.
At the top right, click My settings.
Select Membership and email settings.
Check "Email delivery preference." Make sure that you haven’t selected "Don’t send email updates."
After making changes, click Save.
I want to add Email Addresses to Google Groups programmatically. While there are methods of doing so, none seem to allow the addition of the Display Names, Nicknames or just the First and Last names.
For example, the code (from Add members to google groups programatically):
GroupsManager.getGroup(group).addMember(emailAddress);
works beautifully if the emailAddress is something like fred#example.com, however if I try to add the DisplayName, it doesn't. I have tried:
"Fred Surname" <fred#example.com>
and
Fred Surname
however, I just receive an unspecified error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated - in any language, as long as there is an example!
Many thanks,
Clem Clarke
It can't be done unless the person is defined as a Google User in the Domain. See this discussion: https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/apps/6Z8OpwGk7UM; specifically, the post by marcus24 on 10/10/09. It still works the same way today.
It only works if you add a user with a Google account (includes other Gsuite enabled organisations and Gmail addresses too). It does not works for users with other accounts (e.g Hotmail, iCloud, Yahoo etc).
Hopefully Google will enable GSuite admins to include the person's name with their email address for third party accounts soon.
This format for adding Display names does not work in the New Google Groups. No matter what format I enter, it puts the email name in the Display Name Field instead of the name that I use to maintain the group, i.e. First Name Last Name. Since some emails are not remotely associated with a person's name, this is very difficult to manage. The special input formula works fine in Classic Google Groups but not in the New Google Groups.
I'm admin for a Google for Nonprofits workspace. When adding members to a google group (in the form "First Last <emailaddress.domain>"), the Display Name "takes" only for those users who have accounts in our organizational domain. For the others, the email address is just repeated where I wish the Display Name would appear.
It can totally be done, I just did it and have done it before. When adding a new member to the group type the name as you want it displayed then the address in the <>'s. Ex. John Doe <email address>
Hope that helps.
I created the workflow in sharepoint designer using Collect data from user option. The approver receives three automated mail.
1) Notification to approve - Task assigned email
2) After approval, task has been changed alert
3) Another task has been changed alert
Is there an option to suppress the last two task has been changed alert? I would like to send only the Task assigned mail to approver
I faced a similar issue and after a research i found a solution that works well for me. I have used Sharepoint Manager 2007 http://www.codeplex.com/. Just use it and do the following as in screen dump:
http://sharepointburger.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/sp20071.png
The first "You've been assigned a task" email is a feature of the Task list template and can be changed in List Settings > Advance Settings > Send e-mail when ownership is assigned.
The second two emails are "Alert me" emails. (Not sure why you are getting two, I suspect you my have signed up with 2 different users accounts that could even have the same email address.)
To delete the Alert Me for the currently logged on user.
Actions > Alert Me > View my existing alerts on this site
Then select your alert and Delete.
By the way - this is not a programming related question (See FAQ top right) so you may get quicker answers by posting similar questions on sites such as superuser.com or SharePoint.SE
I guess that you created your workflow in a "Task" list that has the email alert to "Assigned To" enabled. You can disable this feature under Settings, List Settings, Advanced Settings.
Your approver likely has "Alert Me" features enabled for this list. You can delete these under Action, All Site Settings, User Alerts.
As a side note. Answer to the question this title sounds like it is asking: The "Send e-mail when ownership is assigned" feature in "Tasks" lists on SharePoint often causes problems by sending unwanted emails like the task has been changed alert this question refers to. For those of us who Own sites below the site collection level and do not have access to the top level. Here is a way to fix such problems.
Turn of the "Send e-mail when ownership is assigned" feature and design a workflow in SharePoint designer that mirrors this feature minus to portion of the functionality that is not wanted.
