  • NEW: New calendar events will default to RSVP being checked.
  • NEW: New calendar events will by default populate the Organizer Name and Organizer Email fields with the person creating the event.
  • NEW: If the Organizer Email matches a different member, that member also has the ability to edit the event.
  • CHANGE: The "By" line when viewing an event has been removed.
  • CHANGE: For new single events that request an RSVP and that don't have a maximum number of attendees, I've changed the ICS attachment that's sent to the group so that Outlook and Gmail will now display the Yes/Maybe/No buttons, and will display the Organizer, if there is one.
  • CHANGE: Clicking the Yes/Maybe/No buttons in Outlook or Gmail will update your response on the Groups.io website.

  • BUGFIX: In some very rare instances, when trying to display a message on the website, we'd improperly decode a message part, causing an error and the message to not be displayed.
  • SYSADMIN: Begin warm-up process for our remaining new email servers; contact various email service providers asking them to allow email from these servers.
  • INTERNAL: Improve our email server monitoring systems to make it easier to deal with additional email servers.

February 9, 2024

  • CHANGE: Ensure that all group emails have a proper To header line, meaning we add one if it's missing, and we change it to the group email address if it doesn't already contain a proper email address (ie 'undisclosed recipients').
