Using ANGEL Email
This series of webpages will walk you through using the E-mail in the ANGEL environment.
Once you've logged into ANGEL, you will be at your "Personal Home Page".
The page is organized into components called "Nuggets". In the example below, there are four nuggets: Courses, Course Mail, MercerOnline 911, and Institutional Resources.
An example of the Course Mail nugget is shown below. To view your inbox, you can click on the "View Inbox" link. If you have any new messages, the nugget will show how many new messages you have in your inbox. Clicking on this link will also take you to your inbox.
