Hey there - 

Just a heads-up - I found at least one weird variable on the "not able to reply directly" to a seller or other group member. 

There was a variable about viewing member email addresses which I've reset, so that now group members have that ability. 

This was an added function, so I suspect some folks who had legacy memberships in this group had it turned on by default. There has been a cluster of newer group members who could not view/respond (and yes, a few older ones as well). I've reset it globally for the group, so you should be able to use the "Reply directly" option without issue now. 

Let me know via direct email - cyclofiend overat gee mail - if you are still having issues.

Thanks for your patience on this one!

- Jim

Yep, it works! Android is still lame for public replies but I figured out how to work it. You go to landscape to get the reply functions..this brings up the keyboard and blocks the screen so you can't see what you're typing. BUT, rotate back to portrait and the keyboard is under the box so you can type the reply. Easy! 🤣

Hi Jim

It might be worth checking (maybe just for us email-client users),
whether there's an option for/against forcing the "Reply-To:
rbw-owne...@googlegroups.com" onto outgoing messages.

By contrast, the [BOB] list seems to preserve the sender's address as
the Reply-To.

A small difference, but it's always made it a chore of digging into
and finding the sender's address manually overriding that, in the
email compose step.

Thanks

Thanks, Jim!
Nice to be able to clearly see the sender’s address in iPhone landscape view rather than having to search my email for earlier posts from that sender’s “handle” to connect an email address.
