Frank, 

Yes, members may subscribe using non-Google email addresses. In fact, most members are subscribed in this way. 

No Google email address is needed for membership, for receiving group posts as email, or for posting to the group via email.  

On the other hand, in order to use the web interface and functions, members do need to have a a Google sign-in account. This does mean that they need to create a Google account and sign in with it when using web functions. 

Even in this case, though, members do not need to use a Google email address. A member who has a Google sign-in account can associate any email address with that account (more than one, in fact). If they do this, their Group membership can use their preferred email address. They can also then use their Google sign-in account to access the Group web functions, and they will be recognized as a member based on the association between that sign-in and the address that has membership in the group. 

Best,
Amanda

Sorry for the simplistic question but members subscribe to Google Groups with non-Google email addresses?

Subject: [ontolog-forum] Why is ontolog-forum moving to Google Groups?

Hello everyone,

This is Matthew M. Kaufman - I occasionally post on the list, and have always been a huge fan of many of you, especially Peter Yim.  I know he managed a lot of the technology infrastructure, and I know that he has retired.  

Why is the list moving to Google Groups?  

I'd think this is a horrible idea, and would like to propose some other methods, perhaps even a phpBB hosted bulletin board, or to at least maintain the current mailing list!!!!  Is there any danger in the old mailing list archives, and / or web content being lost?  If so, I'd like to start a preservation effort to mirror all of this and re-host it.  I can provide major infrastructure and self-hosted server and storage resources in NYC physically in the Financial District, if necessary!

Thanks guys,

Just hate to see another mailing list go into Google Groups.
