Stewart, thanks for your reply. I've always had all of those boxes
checked. On receipt of your message, I went back and looked at them,
and they're still checked.
I think that I'm getting notified if an application makes it to
Pending, and anyhow I check Pending regardless of any notification.
It's just that many applications for memberships just don't get from
"E-mail Commands" to "Pending"!! And Yahoo doesn't seem to care!!

I moderate quite a few groups on Yahoo and I always get notified.'
Here are a couple of things to check.
Go into your group (Make sure you are logged on with your proper ID)
Click members, then click moderators.
Click the pencil looking thingy under your ID name (Yahoo)
This will get you into preferences for that email address.
Make sure that Notify this moderator when is checked. There are
three the top two need to be checked.
Then scroll down and there are a bunch of other boxes to make sure
are checked.
when you are done click the box that says save changes.
I have two to three address that I have in my groups, one home, one
work, and another backup. I usually get notification on all of
these, but I have gone in and set them up for this.

Part 1
Is anyone else a YahooGroups moderator in a group where the
moderator must approve each applicant?
If so, have you had this [see below] problem, where the email
request for membership is received by yahoo, but is not transferred
to the "Pending" page, where a moderator can deal with it?
Have you complained?
What happened?
I have this problem over and over, and prospective members are
angry, since they apply and are not approved.
Have you found some other way to get around the problem?
FAQ: Why do you want to approve each membership application?
Ans: The Group is for our neighborhood only, and we disapprove any
applicant outside of our boundaries.

Part 2
Is AOL any better?
Is there a way to transition to AOL and not need to have all the
members reapply?
Thanks,
Alvin
