HeyUU Community Google Group FAQ

Here are answers to the frequently asked questions about our community email list. If you have questions that aren’t answered below, please send them to admin@heyuu.ca.

What is it?

It is a private email list where any member can send a message to the group, and all members can receive all messages sent to the group by email. This a place for our community to share announcements, have thoughtful discussions, and ask questions about our annual event.

Currently the group is open to all past Men’s Gathering attendees.

How does it work?

Any member can send an email to heyuu@googlegroups.com which will be sent out to all other group members.

When you send a message, your original message is not sent back to you, but any replies to your message will be sent to your email inbox.

When you reply to someone’s message, your reply is sent to everyone in the group.

Our list runs on Google Groups.
