Notes:
If you send an e-mail message To: All, it may be marked as spam and not delivered to some recipients. For more information, see About sending e-mail messages To: All.
Neither All Observer Users nor Single/Select Observer users from the Control Panel are functional in CourseCompass.
To communicate with students in your course, consider using messages instead of e-mail.
You cannot receive e-mail messages within CourseCompass. E-mail messages are sent to the e-mail address that appears on your Account Summary page.
When you send e-mail from a course, the e-mail message is sent to each recipient's current e-mail address. Recipients will not receive the message until they check the inbox of their external e-mail account.
