Hi all, We are using discourse as a replacement to our mailing list system whereby we email to certain email addresses which in turn post to associated categories and then notify the users. http://comms.southsudanngoforum.org/ Unfortunately when you include multiple mailing list recipients in an e…

Why not create a third category that is visible to both A and B groups ?

Id like to avoid that if at all possible as it would become very messy. To have discourse used as a replacement to mailing lists, not allowing posting to multiple categoreies/lists is a weakness. Is there not a setting somewhere that would allow duplicate posts in multiple categories?

Can you point me in the right direction for where to find this? Thanks all for your replies. Im super impressed with the quality of d…

If each group is to be isolated from the other discussion would not it be better to have separate topics? I don’t know your use case, but if it is something like What do you think of my idea? Lorem ipsum blah blah It seems it would be easy enough to make “personalization” changes something like …

It makes it very burdensome when using email in. At the moment instead of emailing a topic to Category A and B I have to email them individually and slightly change the text in the second posting to Category to avoid having it refused. Can anyone point out where i can disable the dupe check that S…

@techapj @codinghorror @sam Is there any plans to fix the email-in polling to allow it to post to multiple categories?
