Hi Richard, there is a log file of emails sent from Blackboard, which on our Unix system is /usr/local/blackboard/logs/email.log. This shows date, time, staff sender email address, subject, and all the recipient addresses in the BCC field - which explains why they aren't visible in Outlook. There are privacy reasons for not wanting to disclose personal email addresses to everyone, in addition to avoiding clutter in the mail header as there could be hundreds of recipients per message. If you do log rotation you may want to check that you keep sufficient historical copies of this file. Anthony -----Original Message----- From: Blackboard/Courseinfo userslist [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Richard Hall Sent: 11 December 2007 17:38 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: e-mail through blackboard Folks, When a member of staff sends an e-mail to Blackboard, and gets a copy sent to their Outlook mailbox, they do not get a list of recipients for that e-mail. They can take a screen dump, or a printout of the receipt they get in Blackboard, which includes the list of names, but this is either a faff or an unreliable way in which to manage this data. Clearly, it is important that staff are able to clarify (for instance, at an appeal board), who exactly received a communication sent through Blackboard. How do you manage this issue? Do you implement another technical solution? Or do you have a procedural approach, which does the trick? Best wishes, Richard.
