Hi -
I'm trying to set up commit notifications for the OpenQwaq project on Squeaksource and so far I've managed to add an email address to the project and (after enabling commit notifications by email I've successfully received the messages on my private email account. However, when I was trying to add the sender email of said commit notifications ([hidden email]) to the Google group in order to allow it to post I'm getting an error saying "Google Groups will not add 1 user with a restricted address" and googling that message makes me end up at http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Groups-Basics/browse_thread/thread/ab088f0df820cb97 which recommends to "ask the prospective member to use an e-mail address Google groups will accept". So is there a way of changing the sender address? I notice that source.squeak.org sends messages from "[hidden email]" but shouldn't commit messages generally come from "<projectname>@domain"? Any help is greatly appreciated. Cheers, - Andreas |

I've never been able to send email to a google group unless I use Google's smtp server. One way to do that would be to set up a gmail account, and set it to forward mail from squeaksource to the google group. Gmail naturally uses google's smtp server, or some other shortcut to google groups |
Thanks Matthew! Creating a proxy account on GMail and have it forward to
the Google group did in fact do the trick.
