Google Group Add Member Who Can Post Without Receiving Posts

Overview

To allow an email address to post to a Google Group they typically must be a member and will therefore receive a copy of most posts to the group; however, there are times when an account needs to post messages but does not need to be a recipient of any messages otherwise sent to the group. The information below will help a Google Group manager to enable an email address to send messages to the group, and if the group is moderated by default optionally enable posts from that address to be automatically accepted.
