I have mentioned to others we need to look at groups.io, I'm subscribed to several amateur radio related groups there. One thing I wasn't aware of, for what BVARC needs to be capable of it isn't free so this will need to be discussed by the board in detail

I recently joined BVARC so as a newbie please forgive me if these questions have been asked before:

 1. Does the mail reflector have an option to get a daily digest of
    messages instead of getting each individual message?
 2. If it doesn’t, has moving to groups.io ever been considered?

Thanks,

The Discord server sure did just that!

It locked up my box and I had to power cycle.

    I have attached the flyer once more below.

    It acts as an organized chat system, and it is much cleaner and
    easier to keep up with than a long chain of emails. I highly
    recommend using it for conversing with other members of BVARC.
    There are already over 60 members on there to speak with, and
    several different organized topics to choose from. You can message
    in specific channels pertaining to equipment sales, parks on the
    air, local nets, and more.

            Blog  we keep track of the conversations an avoid to
            receive many email back in force. My opinion is email is
            not made for chat. Only a suggestion.

                If you agree with Pump, not having time to read a blog,

                Then why do you want us to have a blog??

                We have had a blog before and no one used it

                If you do set up a blog, make it independent of the
                email system.  I don't

                think I will have time to read a blog.

                We can install a blog on the website if there is
                enough interest..

                We currently have facebook, its kinda like a blog and
                fairly active..

                What kind of threat are you talking about??

                Im not sure if you are talking about the reflector or
                not... Every once in a while

                when it gets real busy or a hot topic pops up,  then a
                lot of emails come pretty

                quickly.. Once in a while someone complains that the
                reflector is filling up their inbox.

                From the reflector point of view it is nice to see it
                very active...

                solution or advice: Every email the reflector sends
                out has "[BVARC]"

                in the title... almost ANY email client can be set up
                to filter the [BVARC]

                and drop it in a BVARC folder in your mail
                program....then it does not clog

                your inbox or interfere with your normal emails and
                you can go read the

                BVARC folder at your leisure..

                OR

                You can set the reflector to send you the reflector
                emails in digest mode...

                one big email instead of a bunch of individuals..

                Hope this helps

                Happy Sunday, July 24, 2022; there is no way to add a
                blog page on the website? Like this, will we not
                receive lots of emails from everyone responding to the
                threat?

                I see an email for content or sent a specific message
                but not as a blog—just my 2 cents.
