- INTERNAL: Optimized the bounce system.

- CHANGE: We no longer send any email to 'typo' domains as well as domains that are hosted by known domain parking servers. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/wednesday_update/105185583?p=,,,50,0,0,0::recentpostdate/sticky,,,50,2,0,105185583,previd%3D9223372036854775807,nextid%3D1709747170770269984&previd=9223372036854775807&nextid=1709747170770269984
March 25, 2024
- BUGFIX: We were incorrectly adding a Bounced User log entry when we sent bounce notice messages to bouncing members.
March 22, 2024
- CHANGE: We now log when a user is set to the red Bounced state, and we now log all instances when a user is set to the blue Bouncing state. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/104774546#msg37951
March 21, 2024
- CHANGE: When a user who is going through the reverification process visits the site, they are now redirected to a special page which lets them change their email address or send a new reverification email. Simply visiting the website no longer automatically reverifies someone.
- CHANGE: The reverification email now includes a link to a new web page, which when visited, reverifies the user. Simply responding to the reverification email will also still reverify the user.
March 20, 2024
- CHANGE: When a bouncing user visits the website, they are now directed to a special page which lets them change their email address or send a bounce probe email. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/104774546#msg37751
- CHANGE: We now always send an email notification to a member when they RSVP to an event, regardless of what the RSVP is. Also, events with a max number of attendees now also have ICS files formatted with METHOD=REQUEST so that members can RSVP directly in Outlook and other calendars. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/37722
March 15, 2024
- BUGFIX: Include descriptions in #file-notice messages when adding new links.
- SYSADMIN: Started sending email through remaining new servers.
March 14, 2024
- BUGFIX: We weren't saving BCC Me checks properly in drafts. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/message/37776
- SYSADMIN: Upgrade our load balancer instances because they were running out of memory.
March 13, 2024
- BUGFIX: In some cases we were improperly encoding the 'To' header line for group & sender replies, leading to bounces from GMX associated servers.
March 12, 2024
- SYSADMIN: Started sending email through a fourth email server.
March 11, 2024
- CHANGE: Reverted the change where we re-write the Date header of emails. Instead, we now add a Resent-Date header.
- MISC: Began new reverification process for some groups confirmed to have spam trap addresses.
March 8, 2024
- BUGFIX: When a member leaves or is removed from a parent group, causing them to also be removed from any subgroups they are a member of, it was not logged in the activity logs of the subgroups that they had been removed or left.
- BUGFIX: In some instances, it was not possible to edit extra member data fields in a member's group profile page.
March 7, 2024
- BUGFIX: When replying to a message on the website, don't delete the draft until we have successfully sent the message. https://beta.groups.io/g/main/topic/unacceptable_and_illogical/104778871?p=,,,50,0,0,0::recentpostdate/sticky,,,50,2,0,104778871,previd%3D9223372036854775807,nextid%3D1708377556600277976&previd=9223372036854775807&nextid=1708377556600277976
