Note: The default setting for Smart Digest for students is 4 hours.
Options for email notifications:
- Real Time: receive an email notification immediately for new posts
- No Emails: do not receive any email notifications, except when an instructor bypasses this setting
- Daily Digest: receive a digest of new posts once a day
- Smart Digest: receive a digest of new posts every 1-6 hours
Note: If you disable your email notifications or drop a class, there may be one more email digest queued up to send. After that, you will not receive any more.
