4.1. Email Notification of Student Submissions

By adding a notify attribute to the root <assignment> element, you can specify an email address to which a short message will be sent whenever a student submits. For example,

<assignment notify="cs361@cs.odu.edu"> 
  <title>CS361: Keeping Your Distance</title> 
    ...
</assignment>

In this case, an email message would be sent to (and from) cs361@cs.odu.edu each time a student submits this assignment. A typical message will look like

from: cs361@cs.odu.edu
to: cs361@cs.odu.edu
subject: Submission #1 from jdoe on editd
