Is it possible to show the messages via web, but not allowing the "send email" link bellow the email adress?

When the messages are shown via web, the email address are incomplete, but an intruder can use the link "Send Email" to send email to any member. By example, see the group:


http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/fdpa2


You can see the link "Send Email". The email address doesn麓t appear, but if you do click in the link "Send Email" you can send email to all members one by one.


We have problems with a group: An intruder sent messages to all members of the group, writing defamer messages. We had to disable the messages shown via web. But, we really we want to show the messages but with the link "Send Email" disabled

You could set the message archive on the website to members only. That way people need to be members of the group before they can read messages and so non-members wouldn't be able to see the send email link. Another option would be to allow members to hide their email addresses. When a member has a hidden email address, there is no option to send email. However, you lose the polls section of the group and the members who choose this option can't post messages by email. So that might not be what you want.





There is no setting to disable the send email link on it's own, though.
