Are blackboard e mails supposed to be sent to my inbox

Blackboard emails are typically sent to the student's Blackboard email address, which is usually a unique email address created by the institution for each student. This email address is often used for official communication between the institution and students, and it's not necessarily the same as the student's personal email address.

When you receive an email from Blackboard, it's likely that it's being sent to your Blackboard email address, which is usually in the format of [your username]@blackboard.com or [your username]@yourinstitution.blackboard.com.

If you're not receiving Blackboard emails in your inbox, it's possible that:

  1. Your institution has set up a different email address for Blackboard notifications.
  2. Your email client or spam filter is blocking the emails from being delivered to your inbox.
  3. You haven't checked your Blackboard email account recently, or you're not aware that you have a Blackboard email account.

To resolve the issue, you can try the following:

  1. Check your Blackboard email account: Log in to your Blackboard account and check your email inbox to see if the emails are being delivered there.
  2. Check your institution's email settings: Contact your institution's IT department or Blackboard administrator to see if they have set up a different email address for Blackboard notifications.
  3. Whitelist Blackboard emails: Add the Blackboard email address to your email client's whitelist or safe senders list to ensure that the emails are delivered to your inbox.
  4. Check your spam filter: Check your email client's spam filter settings to see if it's blocking the Blackboard emails. You can try marking the emails as "not spam" or adjusting the filter settings to allow emails from Blackboard to be delivered to your inbox.

If you're still having trouble receiving Blackboard emails, you may want to contact your institution's IT department or Blackboard administrator for further assistance.
