View Full Version : [Dixonary] Setup for TAPCIS.COM

Mainly for Dan: I would prefer using TAPCIS.COM for the game. So I have to
set up both it and Coryphaeus with the same Email address, according to
your instructions.

I was going to make sure that both were the same, but I don't really know
what is meant by "the same Email address" and what's worse, my notes on
what I did with TAPCIS.COM are not complete.

Anyway: I looked up the stuff I printed off when I signed up for the
Coryphaeus group, and it seems there are two Email addresses. One address
is set to one of my Yahoo accounts, and the other is my CompuServe Mail
address. I have the group messages sent to my CompuServe address for the
time being.

One of the pages I printed when I was setting this up shows this:
Yahoo! Mail Address: my Yahoo Email address
Alternate Email 1: my CompuServe Email address (primary)

Note the word "primary" after the alternate Email address.

Which of those is the one that should be set up for TAPCIS.COM?

In addition: can I change the Yahoo Email address I used for the Coryphaeus
group? I really want to set up both TAPCIS.COM and Coryphaeus with whatever
I will be using as my main Email address going forward, since I will
ultimately be cancelling my CompuServe account.

Once I get set up on TAPCIS.COM, I will change my settings for Coryphaeus
so that the messages are no longer sent by Email.

Or, alternately, you can add a second address to a yahoo "subscription".

Some folks have been posting on tapcis.com from email addresses which
are not "members" of the coryphaeus group. Those posts end up in a
"pending" queue until one of the group moderators (Paul, Chris, Me,
others...) approves it. I have been adding those users as members (with
a "no email" option) when they post, so this problem shouldn't repeat.
But it would do all the moderators a favor if the members themselves
added the alternate email address.

Whatever email address you gave TAPCIS.COM as your email is the one
which shows up as the "From:" address on echoes to this board. That
address needs to be a member of this yahoo group, even if you want your
group email delivered to another address. Don't worry too much about it
if you don't understand it. One of the moderators can add you manually
if your posts keep getting moderated.

It doesn't really matter which one you select as "primary". When you
are in the "my groups" window you can select which email address (of
your several selections) is used for each group. (As well as "no
email", "single messages" or "daily digest" modes.)

Yes, just go to your yahoo group settings, "add" a new address, and
delete your old address.

FYI: if anyone needs to know what email address was used for a tapcis.com account, just PM me at the tapcis.com forum.
