When viewing a folder entry, you might think of a co-worker who also needs the information. Vibe provides various ways to inform your friends and co-workers about entries that you think they might be interested in.
These options are functional only if you have an email account assigned to you in Vibe. To assign an email account to your Vibe profile, see Adding and Modifying Delivery Destinations.
NOTE:Notifying another Vibe user about an entry does not automatically grant the user access rights to view the entry. If the user does not already have access rights to view the entry, you can modify the access control settings of the entry, as described in Controlling Access to Entries
in the OpenText Vibe 4.0.8 Advanced User Guide.
For information about sharing an entry, see Section 4.0, Sharing Entries, Folders, and Workspaces.
You can send a notification email about a folder entry when you create the entry, or after the entry has already been created.
In the entry creation form when you are creating an entry, click Send E-Mail When Entry is Submitted.
Fill in the appropriate fields.
For information on filling in the rest of the Send E-Mail form, see Filling Out the Send E-Mail Page.
Click OK to create the entry and send the email.
You do not need to be the author of the entry to send this type of email.
Navigate to and open the entry that you want to inform others about via email.
Click Send e-mail to contributors in the entry’s Footer toolbar.
The Send E-Mail page is displayed.
A link to this entry is automatically created and is visible in the body of the received message.

For information on filling in the rest of the Send E-Mail form, see Filling Out the Send E-Mail Page.
Click OK to send the notification.
For Blog entries, you can use the Blog toolbar to send an email about the entry. For information on using the Blog toolbar, see Using the Blog Toolbar.
