Standard Emails

• Posts. Every new post on P2s will be emailed to every P2 member, unless you have opted out of email notifications.
• Comments. Comments on posts can also be emailed but only if an member has opted in by clicking on the follow button at the bottom of a post.

• Likes. You will also recieve an email whenever someone likes one of your posts or documents.
• Invitation accepted. If you are an admin you will receive an email whenever someone has accepted your invitation to join your P2.
• Access requested. If you are an admin you may receive emails with the message: “user requested access to your private site.” Clicking through you can allow or ignore the email. This happens in some cases where you have invited a user with one email address and they prefer another one

What if the emails are not getting through?
