2. For the group you want, in the Subscription column, click the Down arrow .
3. Select from the following:
   • Each email—Messages are sent individually as they’re posted to the group.

   • Abridged—Summaries of up to 150 messages are combined into single emails and sent daily.
   • No email—Messages from the group are not sent.

   To receive abridged summaries or digests of a group’s messages, you must turn on conversation history for the group.
