Resource Post: How to Search the Class Email List for a Particular Person's Emails

To do a search for all the emails written to the class email list from a particular person or on a particular topic:

1. Log on to your gmail account.
2. Enter this address into the address bar of your browser:

http://groups.google.com/group/eng111summer2008reynolds

3. Next to the name, "ENG111Summer2008Reynolds," you should see a box with a button named, "search this group." This box--among other things-- allows you to search all the emails from yourself or others, like me (prof.brandon@gmail.com), by entering an email address as your search keyword. By using this method, you can see all the emails you have sent to the class list. You can also make sure you are seeing all the emails I have written or those sent by your group members.

This is the method I use to look at the work an individual student or group has done on the list or to pull a particular email from the list using a keyword search.

As always, write with questions.
