So when I went in to the link it asked for my password but I have no memory of ever receiving one.

Anyone any ideas?

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for that group membership link, that is exactly what I was looking for earlier, but they have made it quite difficult to find if you simply go to the main Google Groups website and select, for example, the Viphone group.

After checking again, I did finally find it when I realized that where it said “Conversations, more than 99 are unread

1 of 3”, it did say “1 of 3” indicating there are 2 more items in that list.

Unlike other places where the element is a menu, for example “Settings button menu ‑  collapsed” where “collapsed” indicates this can be expanded to see the menu options, the only indication with these list elements is the “1 of 3”.

Anyways, when I pressed the spacebar on that list item, I then found the other options:

About, 2 of 3

My membership settings, 3 of 3

However, even pressing enter on this which then causes Jaws to say “Loading...” and “Manage My Membership Settings for VIPhone”, still seems not to properly load the content you get when you use the direct link, I could see it with the Jaws cursor, but it’s definitely one of these things where somebody who is not very familiar with all the tricks of the screenreader trade may not find this. When I turned the virtual cursor off and then tabbed a few times, I heard some of the options available in the membership settings area and then turning the virtual cursor on again, I could finally see everything the same way as using the direct link.

Best regards,

Sieghard

Hi there,

To change your Google Groups email address:

First visit this page and add your new email address: https://myaccount.google.com/alternateemail

Then visit this page and change your email address: https://groups.google.com/g/viphone/membership

HTH,

Matthew

Dennis,

It seems you cannot change your email address any more, years ago this was possible, but I cannot find it any more and the below answer from Chat GPT would confirm this. I asked “How can I change my email address for a Google Group”:

Here’s how you can change the email address you use in a *Google Group*:

*🔑**Key Points*

  * You *cannot directly change* the email address tied to your Google
    account inside Google Groups.
  * Instead, you need to *add a new email address* to the group and
    then remove the old one.

*Step-by-Step Options*

*Option 1: Add your new email and leave with the old one*

 1. Sign in to Google Groups <https://groups.google.com/>.
 2. Open the group you belong to.
 3. Click *Join group* with your new email address (you may need to
    sign out and back in with the new account).
 4. Once added, go back with your old email and click *Leave group*.

*Option 2: Ask the group manager/owner*

  * If the group is managed by someone else, you can ask the *group
    owner or manager* to:
      o Add your new email address as a member.
      o Remove your old email address.

*Option 3: Forwarding (temporary workaround)*

  * If you want to keep receiving group emails at your new address
    without rejoining:
      o Set up *email forwarding* from your old account to your new
        one in Gmail settings.
      o This won’t let you post to the group from the new address, but
        you’ll still receive messages.

**

*Important:*Google Groups ties membership to a specific Google account. If your new email is a completely different Google account, you’ll need to rejoin the group with that account.

Would you like me to walk you through the exact steps for *joining with a new email* in your current group tab (since you have Google Groups open), so you can do it right away?

I guess these AI’s are getting pretty smart because I did have indeed Google Groups open in another tab.

If you don’t want a delay, I would simply subscribe with your new email address while you are still subscribed as well with the old one, then once your new request to subscribe is approved, unsubscribe with the old one.

    I am not sure which screenreader you use and if you are trying to
    do this on the iPhone or on a computer with Jaws or NVDA.
    Personally I find it is not so difficult on a computer using Edge
    or Chrome and Jaws. I never tried on the iPhone and there is
    little point to give detailed instructions for a computer and Jaws
    if that is not what you use.

    Alternatively you could always unsubscribe with the email you no
    longer which to use and then resubscribe with the new email.

    Does anyone know how to do this?  The Google groups interface is a
    peace of shit!  Why this list isn’t on Groups.io I have no idea!!!
