That's strange because I just went and subscribed with my iinet e-mail address.
I'm unclear on what the 'strange' part is, and wonder if you perhaps might have fundamentally misunderstood what I said upthread.
Anyhow, the link at my knowledgebase (and I now have two, one for the Web method, one for the e-mail-only one) aims to help people by supplying the documentation missing from Google itself about how to subscribe from non-GMail subscription addresses. Yr. welcome.
I didn't read any documentation. I just clicked the Join button and filled in the blanks. Perhaps they've changed something more recently.
I've subscribed non-gmail addresses to google groups, even years ago. It's been fine. I do note that when you create a list, you could choose to disallow regular email subscriptions, which then makes people jump through hoops to join.. but it wasn't selected by default, and I don't know what sort of list admin would turn that on.. -T
