Ben, if you're meaning pre-scheduled in that you set them up whenever you have a minute and then they post themselves at the appropriate time, then you (and the rest of us) will be hoping that this will be one of the things that appears in the 5.5 upgrade in June, where time-release should be coming in. However, whether time-release will only apply to content areas and therefore NOT to email.............. Carl is on this list, maybe he can find out for us - Carl? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kate Boardman Learning Technologies Team IT Service University of Durham South Road Durham DH1 3LE tel.: 0191 374 1502 [log in to unmask] <mailto:[log in to unmask]> -----Original Message----- From: A list to promote discussion amongst MLE Blackboard/Courseinfo users in UK [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of ben hyde Sent: 17 May 2001 11:48 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: pre-scheduled announcements Dear BB Users, Is it possible to send pre scheduled announcements (via email) in BlackBoard? You can't do this in the free version and this would seem like a very simple but obviously useful feature. I was quite surprised not to find it; I had sort of assumed it would be available (and hope it is in the 'paid for' version). tanks, in advance, ben -- IT Research and Development Unit THE LONDON INSTITUTE 65 Davies Street London W1K 5DA phone: 020 7514 8107 fax: 020 7514 8050 email: [log in to unmask] web: http://www.itrdu.linst.ac.uk --
