Tagging messages

When you create a message you can tag it to indicate that you want it handled in a special way. There are five message tagging options in use at the Institute:

  • Urgent Urgent messages are announced when the recipient logs in.
  • Standard Standard messages are sent by default with no special announcement.
  • Private Private messages may not be forwarded by the recipient.
  • Acknowledge If you tag a message for acknowledgment, you receive a confirmation message when the recipient plays your message.
  • Timed Delivery You can tag a message to be sent at a specific time. The Institute system uses a 12 hour time format for timed delivery. For example, for delivery:
Today at 3:00 p.m. At 8:05 a.m. on November 15
