Autoresponder

D asked:


aweber, getresponse, ect… are expensive. if i remember correctly… one can only set a monthly email to go to members of a yahoo group. wouldn’t it be great to have the ability to send out a 5 email course to new member? send once/day or once/week? that would make yahoo groups priceless to most small business marketers.
Michael, ok, that could work if the files could be sent on day x of becoming a new member…

eg. new member joins group…
1. file a goes out immediately
2. file b goes out next day
3. file c goes out following day.
4. file d goes out day x.

if yahoo groups would implement this, at least for upto 10 files, for the free usage… i think that yahoo would benefit from wider usage from small business who need a free/inexpensive method of distributing email courses over a 10-30 period.

!imitate & !autoresponse

I answered a question yesterday upon the hypothetical question af how much room one needs to swing a cat, someone didnt like any of the answers to it, because the question and more than 20 answers have been removed. My answer was the mathematical formula required to solve such a quandary, and i get a violation notice stating “not an answer or a question”
Have you experienced violation notices that dont make any sense/not relevant?

fix my autoresponder

simplydisappointed asked:


some unhappy spammer put my faked email address on autoresponder and flooded my group with messages containing my faked email address, message containing virus. Yahoogroup, without confirming the message originality, simply disabled my Yahoogroup account. As being the owner-moderator of the group, I am not able to operate/moderate my group messages and also unable to change ownership of the group as I am the only onwer/moderator of the group. My group is still there, but my account is disabled. Is there any way to change ownership of my group, by confirming personal details or any other ways?

Only yahoogroups has disabled my account. But, I can log into my Yahoo! Mail account. My Yahoogroup is also still there. But, my Yahoogroup account is disabled. I have posted the matter via a form in Yahoogrups’ help site and have also mailed to abuse@yahoo.com and abuse@yahoogroups.com Still waiting for their reply.

I have an autoresponder service and they said that I can not send out e-mails because of the pop-up block service I am using.

What causes an Auto Respond status? The e-mail that I received from Yahoo states “Please know that if your email account sends 50 or more messages to the same group within 20 minutes, Yahoo! Groups will suspend your account with the status of Auto-responder.” However, I do not send 50 messages a DAY. This is the second time in less than 24 hours that I have been kicked out of Yahoo! It is more convenient for me to read my messages from my e-mail box. So two parts:

1) Why do you think this happened to be so quickly?
2) What would be your advise to avoid this in the future?

How would I convert this code into an asynchronous response. I know you use BeginGetResponse() but am unclear, even after reading the MSDN, as to how to specifically use it. Code examples are what I am looking for. Thank you

(I am using Visual Studio 2005)

CODE:
Try

Dim wrp As HttpWebResponse = _
DirectCast(myHttpWebRequest.GetResponse, HttpWebResponse)

Dim sr As New StreamReader(wrp.GetResponseStream)

Call surf()

Dim text As String = sr.ReadToEnd
RichTextBox2.Text = text.ToString
sr.Close()
wrp.Close()

Catch ex As Exception

ListBox4.Items.Add(ListBox3.Text + ” : ” + ex.Message)
ListBox3.Items.Remove(prox)

End Try
