Background Information
Project Server sends two types of e-mail messages
automatically:
·
Notifications
·
Reminders
The system sends a Notification message immediately
whenever an event in an enterprise project triggers this action. For example, if
the project manager changes the schedule of tasks in the project, the system
automatically sends a Notification e-mail message to all team members affected
by the schedule change.
The system can also send Reminder messages to any user
who subscribes to Reminders in Project Server. For example, a user can set up a
Reminder subscription asking Project Server to remind him/her 2 days before the
start of a new task.
To set up e-mail subscriptions for both Notifications
and Reminders, users of Project Server 2002 and 2003 must navigate to the
Project Web Access home page and click the Alert Me About My Tasks and
Status Reports link in the Actions pane on the left. On the Alert Me
About My Tasks and Status Reports page, each user can set up his/her own
subscriptions to e-mail messages from Project Server. Users of Project Server
2007 must click the Personal Settings link in the Quick Launch
menu and then click the Manage My Alerts and Reminders link.
