How to make a Google Group "announcement only"
An announcement only Google Group is used for one-way communication between the list owner/manager to list members. Only managers will be able to send to the list. If a list member tries to send to the list they will receive a bounce-back notification. You might select this method for sending communications to students or staff where communication is intended to be one-way only – sending out a newsletter or monthly announcements, for example
- Create your group.
- Go to Group Settings (left hand column toward the bottom)
- Navigate to "Who can post."
- For "Who can post," select Group Managers.
- Navigate to "Post Replies to."
- For "Post Replies to" select Group Managers Only.
- Under "Message Moderation" select Moderate all messages.
There are other settings under Group Settings that you may wish to review as well:
- Who can see the group (under Google Groups)
- Who can join the group
- Allow external members (external to Lehigh)
Use Google Calendar with Google Groups
