And if you already have a Google Groups account but don't want to use the associated email address for this list, 1) sign out of google groups 2) then use the google groups link Alden provided 3) create a new google groups account with the email address you want to use 4) continue as normal
I don't know how many other people are in the habit of using multiple email addresses with a yahoo id, and selecting different addresses for different Yahoo groups. That was my problem with Google Groups, I kept looking for a similar feature that isn't there. Just create another Google Groups account with your preferred email address. -- Dennis Sherman Chicago, IL, USA ----- Original Message ---- > From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: hg@hurdygurdy.com > Sent: Friday, October 3, 2008 12:29:18 AM > Subject: [HG] The Listmaster Speaks: Reminder of how to migrate > > > Dear Listmembers, > > So far some 90 people have migrated to the new list.
