How to avoid spamming the group with out of the office messages

[Guest guest]

As often happens on this and other groups, a member can accidentally

spam the entire group with " out of the office " messages when they

leave town. This happens because they are either receiving a daily

digest to their email account, or they are receiving individual

emails from every post. This causes a daily or multiple daily

messages to be sent out to the entire group.

 

Here is a simple way to avoid sending " out of the office " messages

to the CHA group:

 

1. Go to the main CHA page and sign in if you're not already:

 

http://health./

 

2. At the top of the page, click on " Edit Membership " .

 

3. Under Step 2, Message Delivery, select " Web Only " .

 

4. At the bottom of the page, click on " Save Changes " .

 

That's all you need to do! Your email program can still send out

your " out of the office " email, but it will no longer get sent to

the CHA group. When you are back in town, go back to the web site

and select your preferred mode of message delivery under Edit

Membership. Everything will go back to the way it was before you

left town. Just don't forget to also disable the " out of the office "

message in your personal email program when you are back in town.
