Sending and receiving email using Oncourse CL Email Archive
The Email Archive gives your course site or project
site its own email address that participants can use for
communicating with each other. When you first access the site, if you
do not see the Email Archive tool on the menubar,
you will need to add it. For instructions, see Adding Email Archive to your site.
Note: You must use your Indiana University email account to send email to your site's Email Archive. For more information, see Why did the Email Archive reject my message?
Sending email messages
You can send email to your site's participants from your email
account with your preferred email client (e.g.,
Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora,
Mac OS X Mail, or Thunderbird). All email messages
will be stored in the Email Archive and visible to all
participants. To view your site's email address, in the menubar, click
Email Archive. For more information, see Sending mail to site participants via Email Archive.
Note: Email sent to the site's email address will go to all participants (i.e., you can't send email to individual participants using Email Archive). To send messages to individuals, use the Messages tool; see Sending, forwarding, and replying to messages.
Receiving email messages
Email messages are sent to the email address in your profile. You do not need to log into the application to read your mail. However, if you do not wish to receive mail from the site, or if you'd rather receive mail in a daily digest format, you can change your notification preferences from My Workspace. For instructions, see Changing notification preferences.
