How does mail work in Avenue to Learn?
</p>

<p>
Avenue Mail is currently configured to only accept incoming mail from within Avenue - so that means that if you send e-mail to your Avenue Mail address from Gmail, Hotmail or your McMaster e-mail, it will not arrive. We are currently working with UTS and D2L (the host of Avenue to Learn) to allow external e-mail.

<p>
<b>Setting up a Reply-to Email Address in Avenue </b>
</p>

<p>
Avenue to Learn is currently configured to provide users with an email account that they can use to send and receive email from other users within Avenue. Users cannot receive emails from external email accounts. The reply-to setting ensures that if mail is sent to an external address, the recipient of the email can reply to the mail, and that email will be delivered to the alternate address indicated in the reply-to field.
</p>

1. Log into your Avenue account.
</p>

<p>
2. Click on the <b>Message Alerts </b> button in the black Minibar at the top of the screen and select <b>Go to Email </b> in the drop down menu.
