IconMail Page

The IconMail page lists your messages. The messages you receive can be notifications generated automatically by the system, such as a notification that you have been assigned a task, or messages created by individual users.

Your system may be configured to use email (your normal business email system) in place of IconMail.

This page is accessed by clicking > My Tools > IconMail from the global toolbar.
