8.4 Modifying Notification Settings for Messages

E-mail notifications are a good way to stay informed about messages that you receive in Vibe.

If you want to further customize the default notification settings that are described in Section 8.1, Understanding the Default Notification Settings, you can modify them to suit your personal preference.

  1. On any page in Vibe, click Settings in the upper right corner of the page.

  2. Click Notices.

  3. In the Send a Copy to my Email for section, select the notification options that you want.

    You receive e-mail notifications for each of the options that are selected.

    Direct Messages to me: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user sends you a direct message.

    ...and replies: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user replies to a direct message thread that you are participating in.

    For more information on direct messages, see Section 2.1.2, Sending a Direct Message to Another Vibe User.

    New Posts to My Feed: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user posts a message to your personal feed.

    Replies to My Feed: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user replies to a message that you posted to your personal feed.

    ...from only those I follow: You receive an e-mail notification each time a user that you follow replies to a message that you posted to your personal feed. When a user you are not currently following replies to a message that you posted to your personal feed, you do not receive a notification.

  4. Click Save.
