Course editors can use the Communicate Settings tool, located under the Manage tab beneath the PSU Course Settings subheading, to configure the mail settings for their course. For example, by default students do not have the right to forward course mail to other classmates Internet e-mail accounts. However, instructors can grant students this ability by going into the Course Mail Settings and changing the minimum rights for the Send Internet E-mail feature from the Default setting to Students/Members. By granting them this right, students will then have the option to send a copy of the message to each course member's Internet E-mail account when they send course mail.

Instructors can also set the course mail settings so that a copy every message they (the instructor) send is automatically forwarded to their student's Internet E-mail account. By default the instructor has to manually select this option each time they send a course mail message. To change the default settings the instructor needs to select the Send a copy to each recipient's Internet email option found under the Message Options heading in Course Mail Settings.

By changing the setting at the course level this option is automatically selected whenever the instructor goes to create a course mail message.
