List nannies - get your act together - some people seem to be having trouble signing up and once signed up they have no clue as to how to unsubscribe. I'm signed up for this list but want the digest mode. How do I get it? OK, here are some clarifications from what I did experience. There seems to be some confusion on the Google website about how to subscribe to groups and manage your subscription from a non-Google email account. For those that are subscribed from their Gmail account, please ignore this. For all the others, here is what I did again. You first need to send an email from the account you want to subscribe to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. You'll receive a confirmation email and you just have to reply to it. Then, go to http://groups.google.com/. From that page, click the Join link next to New users. On the next page, enter your current email address, the one you just subscribed. Choose a password and customize your profile if you want. Then, click the I accept. Create my account. button at the bottom of the page. You will get another confirmation for your account creation. You can again reply to that confirmation or click the hyperlink in it. When creating an account for my Fannie Mae email address, I did click the hyperlink. Then, open a new browser tab or window or enter the Google Groups link http://groups.google.com/. From that page, now click the Sign in link next to Members. When I want to sign in with my Gmail account, I just enter my user ID without the domain, e.g. 'laurent.daudelin' (my Google email address is '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'). If I want to manage my Fannie Mae email address account, I first sign out if I'm signed in then I enter my full Fannie Mae email address in the email field, e.g. '[EMAIL PROTECTED]', along with my password. That's working perfectly so far. Using Safari, if I type enough characters to identify my Gmail account, it sets the password for that account automatically. Very handy. Once you signed in, you should see the G-Books group under All my groups since you already subscribed to that group with your email address. Click the G-Books link. Then, if you want to change your subscription (switch to digest, email, etc.), click the Unsubscribe or change membership link next to Start a new topic. The next page should be pretty obvious.

Well, that's very disappointing. I thought I'd found a nice little community-driven mailing list, I join, and within a week it decides to downgrade and become submerged in the dank depths of the Grey Empire known as Google. I've been on four other lists in the past that started off on normal listservers, moved to Google (or Yahoo Groups in one case) only to experience frustration in its use, then watch the list stagnate eventually die because it become lost in the crowd. With reluctance I signed up; I sent off my subscription mail, then confirmed the activation via the web page, and itold me I was now a member. A few hours later, a question came in from GG, I could answer it, so I did, and hit send. A minute later, I get an autoreply. You do not have permission to post to group g-books. You may need to join the group before being allowed to post, Whiskey tango foxtrot?? Sorry guys, but I'll stick with G-Books on MacLaunch until it dies.
