E-mail systems are used by almost everybody but not necessarily well understood by all. Chris Taylor, President of the Ottawa PC Users’ Group will cover the basics of webmail and E-mail clients, POP/IMAP, and settings required to access mail servers. We will discuss the evils of spam, spoofing & phishing and how to detect & deal with them. We’ll look at mail folders and filters for organization. Find out how portable and disposable addresses can be used to make it easier to change Internet Service Provider and safeguard your privacy when giving your email address to those you don’t entirely trust.
Event Moderation & Tips
Event Moderation & Troubleshooting Tips
1. New Events Not Appearing in Search
We’ve seen an increase in cases where newly created events do not appear in the Events search. If this happens, please try the following:
- Re-save the event’s schedule. This is especially important for events with single schedule entries, which may not index correctly on first save.
Re-saving triggers a refresh of the event data and usually resolves the issue.
2. Reminder: Moderation Process for Edited Events
Please remember that when an existing event is edited:
- Any update places the event back into moderation.
- A moderator must review and approve the changes before they become publicly visible.
If your updates don’t appear right away, the event is likely still awaiting moderation.
