The e-mail address used in Learn@UWSuperior is automatically your University of Wisconsin-Superior address (example: astudent1@uwsuper.edu).  All messages sent to you will go to your UW-Superior mail box, not a Learn@UWSuperior mail box.

To receive a copy of the emails you send, either include your UW-Superior email address in the "Cc" box or from the My Home page, in My Preferences click on the Email tab, then check the "Send a copy of each outgoing message to (your email address)" box. (See image)  All messages sent to you will go to your UW-Superior mail box.

There are two places you can send an email from in Learn@UWSuperior - the Navigation bar on both the My Home and Course Home pages (See image) and the Classlist inside your courses (See image).
