Hi not sure if anyone can help. I don't seem to be able to receive messages any longer from my Swinburne inbox even though facilitators attest to having sent them to my inbox "successfully". (They just do not appear.) I was previously able to receive such. (Last correspondence was dated 19 Dec, but since then, nothing. There was no IT Support or place where I could raise a ticket for help, in my Canvas help menu.
Could anyone here help?
Thanks.

Hi @jeynelle
I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "Swineburn inbox" If you mean the inbox in Canvas, you must be enrolled in a course for an instructor/facilitator to send you a message. The inbox is a messaging tool for while the course is active only, it's not an email system.
That's the only issue I can think of that would result in your error, outside of a bug.
