Andrew, You don't have to interact with the group through and email server however. You may or may not know that, I wouldn't know, so there's that.
I've always interacted with the group though the web interface https://groups.google.com/g/rbw-owners-bunch. For myself doing it through an email server is needlessly excessive and tedious. As if I don't enough to attend to ;-). While I mostly use desktop software, I can also view it on any Android mobile device on a given web browser if needed9rarely). Doing it this way my gmail is untouched. I only use gmail for interacting with members privately/personally. FWIW, Within "my membership settings" I have both "link to my google account" and "subscribe me to email updates when I post to a conversation" *unchecked*, and "Subscription-choose how you can receive email from groups" set to "*no email*". If I want email updates to a specific conversation I can do that by checking the "subscribe" box(on the web browser version).
