In Confluence, you can easily e-mail a Confluence page to recipients of your choice.

To e-mail a Confluence page,

  1. Go to the 'Information' view for the page. To do this:

    • Go to a page in the space, open the 'Tools' menu and select 'Info'. The 'Information' view will open.
  2. In the first box displayed, click the 'E-mail' link (beside 'Operations').
    (info) This may not be visible if this feature is turned off — see note at the bottom of this page.
  3. This will display a box for you to enter the e-mail details (see screenshot below).
    • 'Recipients: E-mail address(es)' — To send the email to someone who isn't a Confluence user, type their email address. You can type multiple addresses, separated by commas.
    • 'Recipients: Confluence Group(s)' — Type the name of the Confluence group (or groups, separated by commas); or click this icon to select a group from the list:
    • 'Recipients: Confluence User(s)' — Type the name of the Confluence user (or users, separated by commas); or click this icon to select a user from the list:
    • 'Subject' — (Optional) Type the email's subject line.
    • 'Notes' — (Optional) Type the text (if any) which you want to appear at the top of the email's body. This text will appear before the contents of the Confluence page.
    • 'Format' — Choose whether to send the email in 'Text' or 'HTML' format.
  4. Click the 'Next' button.
  5. A preview of your email will be displayed.
    • To change the Recipients, Subject, Notes or Format, click the 'Edit' button (at the right of the page).
    • To send the email, click 'Send' button (at the bottom of the page).
       


Optional Feature

This feature is disabled by default, to prevent it from being used as a tool for spamming or harrassment. If you want to enable the e-mailing of pages, please ask your Confluence administrator.

Instructions for enabling this feature can be found here: Enabling the 'Mail Page' plugin
