John is still unable to post. If I understand correctly, the root cause is a known issue with the software of Google Groups. At least one other contributor has been shut out as well.

A possible resolution is to start a new group from scratch.

Other ideas?

Another option would be for John (and anyone else with a problem id) to
create a new email address and join ishmailites from that address.
Safest bet would be to create a gmail (aka Google Mail) account (one
would suppose that gmail addresses would have a high degree of
compatibility with Google Groups).

Here's a link to the gmail account creation page:

I have been unable to gain access to the moderation space where I could affect people's access, so I vote for a new group. What should it be called? I am willing to create it and moderate it, but only if at least one other member is willing to co-moderate (hopefully making a recurrence less likely). 'Pip's Avengers'? 'Stubbites'?

Hmm, I was going to suggest deleting the old group and then recreating it, but I suppose if you can't 'moderate' it you also can't delete it...?

Isn't there any way to communicate with support people at Google to regain your moderator access? Apparently not... :-(

If we need moderators, I can lend a hand.  For a new group name, how about Typeers ?

Dear List:

I’m not able to give any technical advice or help. If nobody can erase Ishmailites, will it just go on existing and possible creating confusion by pretending it’s active?

                As for a name, I loved the name Ishmail and once moderated it for a spell. Mailville? Naw!

                Thank you for your efforts to solve the glitch, getting everyone on board who wants to get on board.

                                Gordon Poole
