Moodle plugins directory: Mail | Moodle.org
Albert Gasset, This plugin allows users to send messages to each other, using an interface and features similar to web-based mail clients.
Messages are tied to courses, so users can only send messages to other participants in courses they are enrolled in.
Users can access all mail features through the envelope icon present in the header of the site, or the main menu of the Moodle app.
Version 2.0 of the project implemented by the "Recovery, Transformation and Resilience Plan". Funded by the European Union - Next Generation EU. Produced by the UNIMOODLE University Group: Universities of Valladolid, Complutense de Madrid, UPV/EHU, León, Salamanca, Illes Balears, València, Rey Juan Carlos, La Laguna, Zaragoza, Málaga, Córdoba, Extremadura, Vigo, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria and Burgos.

We have been using the local_mail plugin for a long time but since the last update, when the course setting is "separate groups", it is impossible to select users when sending an email.
Thank you for your feedback
Great idea, thanks for your work.
Two remarks, v. 2.4 on Ubuntu 22.04.4:
1.
web notifications turned on,
once the email is received, after refreshing site,
two notifications appear: one on the bell (regular site notification), one on the envelope (Mail plugin).
Too much, I think, a user has to click five times to fully remove it.
I believe, the envelope would be enough.
2.
there are no push notifications, no pop ups or anything.
In order to see the new message one needs to refresh the website.
It would be absolutely great if there would be some push thing or a pop up.
All the best,
Piotr
We have installed version 2024021200 on our Moodle 4.1.8. Unfortunately, the problems could not be solved with the new version. Some users do not see participants in the selection list even though they are enrolled in the course. Furthermore, emails cannot be sent to groups. I think that used to work.
Best regards

We have installed this new update of the plugin on a Moodle 4.1.6 and in the tests we have seen that the app does not open the window to select a file to attach to the email.
Best regards

Please check! How can it be solved?
Thank you!
Thanks for fixing it quickly.
I am happy to report this plugin just received the "Mobile app support" award. Well done!
Ante todo, enhorabuena y gracias por el plugin; es genial!
Lo he instalado en Moodle 4.3 con el theme Adaptable. Al redactar un correo, el menú desplegable de selección de usuario "para" tiene el fondo transparente y provoca problemas de visualización. Hemos intentado tocar un poco el css, pero no vemos la manera de solucionarlo. ¿Se os ocurre algo? Muchas gracias!
Another feature/ improvement request:
course,
Compose,
To - it might be faster and more intuitive:
instead of pointing cursor precisely onto "To" button, the all verse/ line could be used as clicking area for "To";
also, after marking the recipient, subject and content are covered by drop-down users' list, and in order to close it, one needs to click a small icon in the right upper corner of the "To" window.
I think it would be easier to click just anywhere outside the drop-down list to close it.
Anyway, I use it with pleasure, hope you have time to develop this tool.
Cheers,
Piotr
