Unwanted emails from Google Group

I set up a google group so that I could stay in contact with
members of
an on line book club without filling everyones inbox with
emails each
time someone posts, but this is not what has happened! 
Instead,
whenever someone posts a message Google Groups sends each
group member
out a copy of the message, negating the purpose of the
exercise.

Can anyone tell me, as group manager, how do I globally turn
off this
function whereby everyone is emailed the latest postings? 
Or can
individual users turn off the function themselves?

Other than that, I am a happy Gmail user!


Chad

Receit of e-mail is a per-user setting that the users can
set up, but
moderators/owners can make the change for them.

Go to the manage page of the group, browse member list, and
there you
can set each user's e-mail preference.  They can change it
themselves
also, but if you want to set a group "policy"
then that is how you'd
do it.
