Banning Google Group Members from Receiving Email

At KIS, we assign our school-owned iPads Google accounts. But since they’re in our staff domain, they’re automatically added to our allstaff email group and receive all the email sent to that group. We don’t want these emails to show up in the iPad mail app and needed a way to remove those addresses from the group mail list. This is the method we use:

First access Google Groups Service for the allstaff group by selecting the group in the Google Admin Control Panel, clicking “Manage users in allstaff” and clicking “View in Groups service”.  On the next screen, click on the Manage link.

On the left-hand menu, select Direct add members.

Add the accounts you wish to eliminate from the list.

Select those recently added members and from the Actions menu select Ban.
