Message Board FAQ

How do I stop messages from being emailed to me?

A copy of all messages that are posted to you or to your group are sent to you by default. Use Email alerts to stop messages sent to your groups from being emailed to you.

Note: Personal messages (i.e. messages addressed to you) are always emailed to you.

I've lost a message, how do I find it?

There are many way to locate a message. Try the following (not in any particular order)

• Check under expired or deleted menus.
• If you remember the recipient of the message, select it from the left side-bar of your inbox to show only those messages.
• If you have any items on the left side-bar of your inbox selected, select All Messages.
• If you have created folders and saved the message in a folder, check under your folders menu.
• From your Inbox, select email style to see all individual messages. Sort messages by sender, subject, or date to help you locate the lost message.
