Issue: Moderate a message in Google Groups

Context: Google Groups

Resolution: When a message is submitted to a Google Group with moderation all of the list owners and managers are notified via email. The message submitted is included below the notification. You have two options to take action on a message in moderation.

Option 1:

1. Click the hyperlink approve or reject in the notification. This will open a tab in a browser on your device. If you aren't logged in to your Notre Dame Google account you will have to do so.  
2. Check the box next to the message(s) that you wish to take action on.
3. Click the icon that corresponds with the action you wish to take.
   1. Approve the message
   2. Approve the message and always allow the person to post without moderation
   3. Reject the message and ban the person who submitted from future posts
   4. Reject the message

Option 2: To approve the message, reply to the email from your Notre Dame email.  Nothing is required to be in the reply message. You do have the option to add a note and copy whomever submitted the message to the list.

Notes:

1. Messages are sent immediately. If you wish to delay the approval, you can use Boomerang for Gmail to delay your approval using option 2.
2. The sender of the message will not receive a notification that their message was submitted to moderation or any notification on the action (approval/rejection).
