Communicate with Quickmail and messages

Moodle has a variety of communication tools. The most commonly used are forums, Quickmail and messages.

• Quickmail provides quick access to basic but essential mail options. It allows Lecturers and Programme Administrators to email all or a group of students on a module.  
• Messages in Moodle is an Instant Messaging option enabling chats with other Moodle users and groups.
• Forums allow students and staff to interact with one another even when people are taking part at different times and in different places. A separate guide, linked below, looks at forums in detail.

There is a bug in Quickmail which can result in some or all Quickmail email messages not been delivered. This means that the plugin is not currently usable.

Status

IT have reported this to the third-party developer and are looking at possibilities to fix this.
