Dear Veterans,
1. I have been interacting with you all from time to time on our mailing groups "THE BIGGER FAMILY" AND “THE SIGNALS FAMILY” giving you all details in the past ON HOW TO POST YOUR MAILS . Please permit me to once again mention the details so that one can save them and post one’s messages to the Signals Fraternity without any hassles. We are now a net worked “SIGNALS PARIVAAR”.
2. MAILING GROUPS. We have two mailing groups of your concern:-
2a. First one is my global “SIGNALS FAMILY” (Gp Mail ID - signalsfamily@googlegroups.com) We have over 2400 veterans incl Senior officers of our Corps mostly veterans but for few serving ones as well. Any of the members can post his/her mails to the entire group concerning matters of interest to the signal veterans all over, their mail will be delivered instantly to all the 2400 members after scan clearance. There is, however, a very strict policy of how and what all can be posted by the members which has been passed on several times to all members.
2b. The second one is limited to Delhi and NCR “SIGNALS NCR FAMILY” (Gp Mail ID - signalsncr@googlegroups.com ) . There are approx. 500 mail Ids in this and is used to interact on domestic matters and events limited to NCR incl Delhi NOIDA, Faridabad and Ghaziabad. The said policy is also applicable here as well, so that no FALTOO ,mails by trigger happy members do not reach hundreds of inboxes of the recipients.

3. POLICY – In order to ensure that only relevant mails reach the recipients, all mails posted by the members are auto scanned in our system e-filters which has been developed by a good colleague and donated to us. The system scans all mails and looks for some parametersin the text and trashes / blocks the mails without giving any notification to the sender or to us. The sender must ensure following for his/her mail to be cleared to the group:-
3a. It should be a mail composed by the sender and not be a copy pasted or forwarded mail.
3b. Should be only and singularly addressed to Gp mail ID in the “TO” address field and no where else.
3c. There should be NO mail ID in “TO, CC or BCC” address fields, which is currently the main cause of most of the rejections by the system.
3d. Please note that direct replies to the gp mails received by the recipients are also blocked. However if one needs to reply the replies should be separately addressed as a forwarded msg to the sender or any one else, one wishes to address but not to the group mail ID in addition.
3e. The subject line must be clean without any special characters, so done to block forwards.
3f. The text must not contain such words or combination of words which get related to Politics, religion, governance, personal opinions, controversial issues etc so that unconcerned mails for all members are not transmitted. This module is regularly updated by us to incl additional text combinations.
3g. There should be no business like promotion of any kind.
3h. There should be no reference to Facebook, WhatsApp or Twitter and must not contain any hyperlinks or shortened URLs in the text or the attachments.
3j. The pictures if embedded in the mail must not exceed 100Kb to avoid any hidden virus in them.
3k. If the system suspects any kind of malware in the email the same is blocked.
4. SPECIAL NOTE – All mails addressed to mgr.grps@gmail.com are seen by three of us and replied accordingly. Irrespective of the policy we have the provision to by pass and clear mails in emergency or messages which need immediate attention such as demise of a veteran or schedule of any Corps Event etc if informed through a separate mail or WhatsApp.
