29: Sending messages to a discussion

Now that your Intraspect Discussion is fully installed, you decide to send a welcome message to let recipients know that the discussion is available to them

Using your Intraspect Discussion is a simple extension of using e-mail functions such as Send Message and Reply.

Launch external e-mail client to use in discussion
  1. Double-click on the discussion in the Context Pane to make it the current context.
  2. Click on the New Message button in the Action Toolbar at the top of the Context Pane. The New Message dialog appears. Refer to screen shot
  3. You can use the New Message dialog to compose and send the message through Intraspect, or you can use your own e-mail client, as you will do in this practice scenario. (Review Using your e-mail client with Intraspect for a discussion of the trade-offs of using your e-mail client versus sending mail directly from the Intraspect Client.)
  4. Choose the Launch External E-mail Application button. Refer to screen shot
  5. Your e-mail client appears with the e-mail address for the discussion in its To: field.
  6. Compose a test message and send it by using your e-mail client's standard commands.
