E-mailing a Message to a Discussion

Your groupware e-mail address must be included in your user profile. The e-mail address in your user profile must exactly match your Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Notes e-mail address; this is case-sensitive.

You can send an e-mail to a discussion using your personal computer's e-mail client, such as Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Notes. The e-mail is posted as a message in a new subject thread. Files that you attach to the e-mail are uploaded to the project and attached to the message.

You e-mail a discussion directly by sending the e-mail to the unique e-mail address of the discussion. After you do this, you receive messages from this discussion in your e-mail client and can reply directly from your e-mail client.

  1. Select a project in the My Projects or Community Projects portlet.

  2. Click the Discussions tab in the application view.

  3. Select the discussion that you want to send an e-mail to.

  4. In the details pane, click the discussion's e-mail address.
    A new e-mail message appears in your personal computer's e-mail program, addressed to the discussion.
