*Illustration: Course settings – E-mail notifications*

In this section, you can choose to receive an e-mail notification if:

* a user subscribed to your course (this feature has to be enabled by the platform admin),
* a new file is submitted in the *Assignments* or the *Dropbox* tools,
* a test is passed by a learner.

It is also possible to set an e-mail notification to all users when a new assignment is created.
