A list of groups you are member of can be found at https://groups.google.com/a/volteuropa.org/forum/#!myforums
Delivery settings
You can configure whether you want to receive all messages individually, multiple messages together, or no updates at all.
By default, you receive all messages individually.
Posts ( = Emails)
When you click on the name of a group, you can see the posts in it. This included emails sent to it.
If you do not see any posts, either none have been created, or archiving is disabled for the group.
Manage group
If you have sufficient permissions for a group:
When you click on Group settings in the menu on the left, you can configure various settings, for example who can post ( = send emails) to the group, and who can create the posts ( = emails).
Receiving Emails
Under Group settings → General → Who can post you can decide who can post ( = send emails) to the group. For internal groups, this should be organization members. You can also restrict this for example to just managers, if the group is only used for announcements. If the group should receive emails from outside Volt, this has to be set to Anyone on the web.
Please remember that @volteuropa.org addresses should ONLY be used by Volt Europa A.I.S.B.L. for external communications! National Volt chapters and their sub-entities should use their respective domain.
Sending Emails
If you post to the group, this is done by default with your own address. Under Group settings → Posting policies → Post as the Group you can allow users with roles of your choice to post as the group.
If you want to send with the group mail address from your personal inbox you can also configure that: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22370?hl=en This is not controlled by the group permissions, but a confirmation email will be sent to the group address for each user who activates this.
Configuring a group as collaborative inbox
For a better overview who deals with which incoming email, and which are already resolved, it is useful to go to Group settings → General → Enable additional Google Groups features and apply the configurations for Collaborative Inbox there. This enables features like Topic Assignment, Topic Completion and Mark as no action needed.
Manage members
If you have sufficient permissions for a group:
When you click on People → Members, you can add and remove members, assign them roles and change their delivery settings.
By default, you can add users as owners (full permissions), managers (a bit restricted) and members (the least privileged). In general, the majority of group members should have the member role.
You can also add other groups as members: Groups as Group Members
