Sending Email to Students from Self-Service

Issue/Question

How do I send an email from Self-Service?

Environment

  • Self-Service

Additional Details

 Note: The self-service "email all" button will use your default email client on your PC to send out your roster emails.  Faculty that have Macomb Outlook as their default email on their PC will not have an issue using the "email all" button on their rosters.  All Macomb issued PC's will work properly.  If an adjunct is using a personal PC without Macomb Outlook as the default mail client (Google, Yahoo, etc...) then they will need to copy their roster (bcc: line) and paste it into their Macomb Outlook email on Office 365 to email their entire roster.

Resolution

  • Login to MyMacomb.
  • Select Faculty and Self-Service.
  • Select the Faculty tile in Self-Service.
  • Select your course/section.
  • Select the Roster tab.
  • Select Email all.

  • The bcc: line of the default email application you are using will populate with your roster email addresses.

  • If you are using Macomb Outlook email then you are all set, send your email. 

If you are NOT using Macomb's Outlook email then take these additional steps:

  • Copy the entire roster from the bcc: line. (Ctrl-A to select all, Ctrl-C to copy).
  • Go to Outlook.Office365.com
  • Log in with your Macomb credentials.  
  • Create a new message.
  • Then select bcc: (top right of email window).
  • In the bcc line your paste your roster (Ctrl-V).
