[pianotech] Google groups

[Dean May]

I see what you mean, they have changed that. I believe you can still set up
your Google account to send the posts to the xplornet address. It does ask
for your current email address in the sign up screen. 

You can also log into gmail, then go to account settings (accessed by
clicking the gear symbol on the top right of the screen). Click the Accounts
and Import tab and you can set up the account to access it by way of POP.
Then you configure your current email handler to also use the Gmail account
as a POP account and you should be good to go. There are also some settings
in the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab that might work.

Terry here again.

Google will not let me make an account with my xplornet address. It keeps
telling me that it has to be a gmail address. If I use a gmail address then
google groups will only accept posts from the gmail address, not my xplornet
address, and that is no better for me than HL's crap.
