    1. The Send an e-mail window should open (if it doesn't your pop up blocker may be on).

        10. The "to" field will display (Default Recipient) and is      greyed out. 

              a. add any cc necessary - always a good idea to cc            yourself so that is the default setting. To not copy              yourself, click to remove the check box in front of              "Copy to sender." This default is recommended so            you can check the message went as desired and                in case you need to resend a copy to anyone else              later.

              b. Enter a subject line. 

              c. Optionally, choose a file to attach. Click the                    green check mark to save the uploaded file to the              message.

              d. Enter your message in the text field. 

              e. Enter priority by clicking to place a check mark              in front of High or Low - normal is the default


        11. Click Email to selected staff. (a red message                   indicates please wait while the message is generated,       then a green background message should say                   "Status: the email message was sent to x selected              staff.")

         12. Click "close window."
