Email and NolijWeb
Put Email into Nolij:
1. Check for Special Email conditions
 Attachments: attachments must be removed (see below) and inserted into NolijWeb as separate items.
 Secured Signatures: emails which have secured digital signatures must be copied to plain text before
being inserted into NolijWeb.
 Dancing Emoticons: any content of this sort also requires the email to be converted to plain text.
 See specific instructions, below, for dealing with each specific condition.
 NOTE: In the instructions below, messages and attachments are copied onto the desktop. During the
copying process the operating system will omit the following characters from names of files being
created: \, /, :, *, ?, “, <, > and |. This should not pose a problem to the user unless the omission of
the character would make the copied file name be the same as one already existing on the desktop. If
this occurs, simply change the name of the file already on the desktop, and repeat the copy step.
