The Moodle Quickmail block is a block that appears on the right side of your course and allows you many RRU courses, allowing course participants to send email to other participants or instructors in your courseof the course or the instructor.

Info

Email can be sent through Quickmail even if the course is hidden (course visibility is set to hide).


Info

Email sent through Quickmail with multiple recipients will use BCC for all participants, so it may not be clear to recipients who the email was sent to and recipients will not be able to do a 'reply-all' to reply to everyone the email was sent to. If emailing multiple participants it may be best to exchange email addresses in advance and use a regular email client.
