Receiving Subscription Notes

Subscribing

You can subscribe to receive notes from websites that provide this service. Each of these websites will have a subscribe button to click. You will receive Subscription notes from only the websites where you have subscribed.

You can easily subscribe to receive notes directly from 3M telling you about new features of Post-it® Software Notes when they become available. Go to the Subscription Notes tab in Preferences and click the Subscribe button.

If you use a proxy server for Internet access, you must enter the address and port of the server in the Subscription Notes tab of Preferences. Verify that you are correctly configured by clicking on the Test Settings button. Consult with your network administrator for the correct settings.

Removing a subscription

You can remove a subscription at any time by going to the application Preferences and clicking on the Subscription Notes tab. You can then select the subscription you want to end and click the Remove button. Once you click the Remove button, you will no longer receive notes from that source. To re-subscribe, you will need to go back to the original website and click on the subscribe button again.

Receiving a note...

The note will appear on your desktop. A notifier will appear on the Notepad or in the Taskbar.

Click the notifier on the Notepad or in the Taskbar to expose the received note. The notifier will remain visible until you have exposed all received notes.

If the note was sent to you with the Internet Mail Message Service, a copy will also be sent to your regular email.

Other Receiving Notes Options

Select Preferences from the Notepad Menu and go to the Sent Notes tab:

Uncheck the Enable sending and receiving notes checkbox if you do not want to receive Subscription notes from others. You will not receive notes from others via Internet mail either.

Select a sound to play when you receive a note.
