Private mail set-up

The CCNA web-based Forums system in essence has a Mail Program, like your Outlook Express or similar, inbuilt in the User Control Panel.

Also see the section here on Private Mail which looks at reading, composing and deleting messages.


* Remember to LOG IN

* Click on FORUMS

* Click on User Control Panel:

* Click Board Preferences tab 

The default settings should be as below.

Normally Forums are set for no email to stop spam and their use where the general public can access a Forum, as is the case in the non-Members Forums.


However the CCNA websites allow for individuals to contact each other internally inside the website via private mail, which can not be accessed by other users.

That is why "Allow users to send you private messages" should be set as Yes
Likewise "Notify me on new private messages" should be set as Yes.

This aspect maybe useful for SA NT and WA members.  Also for our international members.
