Creating and sending an email

Creating an email

If you have not already done so, you first need to Log In to EasyMail Plus so that your Inbox is displayed.

1. Click the Create button.

   The create message page is displayed.

   

2. In the To: box, enter the email address of the recipient.

   As an exercise enter the following address: easymail@rmplc.co.uk

3. In the Subject box, enter a subject for your email describing its contents.

   For this example enter About email.

4. In the Message box, type your email message.

   For this exercise enter the text: Please tell me about using RM EasyMail Plus.

   The Create Message page should now look like this:

   

Sending an email

All you need to do to send the email message is click the Send button:

The email you created has now been sent. If you have been following this exercise you should shortly receive an automatic reply from RM. It will be added to the top of your Inbox.

EasyMail Plus automatically checks whether you have new email every three minutes. However, rather than waiting, you can click the Check button to see whether you have new email.

Note: You might occasionally receive an email with ‘Filtered’ included in the subject. It will tell you that an email you sent has not been delivered, and that a copy has been sent to the Filter Master. This will be because the email you sent broke the restrictions set by your school's EasyMail Plus administrator. For example, you might receive such a message if you tried to send an email to someone outside the school when you are only allowed to send emails locally.
