  I am trying to figure out how to use Quickmail at the administrator level. Is there any documentation? I have added the block to my Dashboard and can get into "Quickmail: Compose Admin Message", but I can't seem to be able to filter a group of users based on role and category. It seems like it wants me to specify a username. There is also a blank box with no label. Any assistance would be most welcome as we plan to upgrade next week.

  Hello,
  I still have the version block_quickmail v2.2.0 2019012401
  which runs on Moodle 3.9. on my admin dashboard.
  I will try the update, hopefully it will still work!
  Sincerely
  Daniel

  Indeed, with the new version I can no longer select the recipients.
  Probably because from the administrator's dashboard the message will be sent to all the subscribers of the platform?
  On the other hand, in a course, you can select the participants of the course.

  The current quickmail version, 2.5, only support up to Moodle 3.9x. I have 3.11+ installed and Quickmail seems to work on 3.11. Ha anyone seen any issues with QM 2.5 running MDL 3.11? Thank you.

  Any chance it will be upgraded to support 3.10?

  I have the quickmail installed on 3.11, and it is working. I have not seen any issues on 3.11.

  Hello,
  
  My moodle version is 3.9.7+ and I'm using latest version of this plugin. I have one question.
  
  This plugin is sorting recipient(s) by lastname but I need to sort them with firstname. When I check the configure page, I did not see any seetings for sorting. I think, it should be optional because everyone's needs may be different.
  
  How can I sort my recipient(s) by firstname? Is there any idea or any workaround solution?
  
  Thank you.

  What are "Alternate Emails" for? Even though I've left the altsendfrom setting at the default NO, and it says on the settings page that it would need a core change to use it, I still have Alternate emails as a menu option.

  I think this feature allows you to send messages to users not enrolled in the course or to outsiders. Test it to see.
  With me for example?

  Daniel is correct. The caveat is that those included in the "Alternate Emails" won't get any email variables and will see the codes used for the email variables instead. So if we ever include outsiders for "Alternate Emails," they are more general announcements versus student specific notifications. -Ben

  We just upgraded to the latest Quickmail block (running Moodle 3.9) and I am curious about the migration task. We have a large site that has heavily used Quickmail for the better part of a decade. We keep two years of courses in our production system which comes out to about 6500 courses. I have been running the scheduled task manually on our pre-production instance for testing. I've run it about 10 times and it completes successfully each time but seems to process quite a bit and the db tables increase significantly. What has your experience been with the migration tool? What are your expectations in terms of how many times that task would need to run before conversion is complete? Thanks!

  Is it possible to get a read receipt with emails sent through Quickmail?

  I don't think Stephanie...in the current standard configuration.
