= Private Calendar: email reminder =
The standard institutes calendar (=Zimbra) generates reminders, in the current Zimbra version, only via pop up Windows, if you logged into the webmail interface. Often you need a more independet way to receive a reminder.
 
Until Zimbra is more flexible, please use the following workaround to generate personal reminder emails to a specific date and time:
 1. Create a date
 * Insert {{{!Remind}}} somewhere in the title or the body
 * Save and close the date
You will receive an email if the date happens.
 
 Optional Arguments::
 :: Time before {{{!Remind:xxdyyhzzm}}} (f.e. 1d12h35m)
 :: Other email addresses {{{!Remind:name@domain.com}}}
 :: Can be combined {{{!Remind:1h20m:name@domain.com}}}

== General Events: email reminder ==
 1. research seminars
 * colloquia
 * conferences
 * Dissertationsvorträge
 * general events.

The mailing lists are divided into two parts:
 * automatically assigned e-mail addresses
 * personal e-mail subscription

 Persons who are automatically assigned to a mailing list (only members of our institute)::
 :: research seminars: all organizers, all assistants of the organizers
 :: colloquia: whole institute
 :: conferences: whole institute
 :: Dissertationsvorträge: whole institute
 :: general events: whole institute

Every institute member is free to enable/disable these 5 categories seperately. Every e-mail contains a personalized URL to subscribe / unsubscribe.

== Personal e-mail subscription: ==

On every page of the given events, there is a link 'e-mail reminder subscription' which points to an e-mail address form (if the service is not disabled for the given event). After subscribing, an e-mail will be returned to the subscriber's e-mail. The e-mail provides a personalized link, which the subscriber must open in a webbrowser to activate the subscription.

Subscription period:

The e-mail subscription to a research seminar or a colloquium is semester independent. The e-mail subscription is active as long as the seminar exists.
All other events occur only one time.

Sending reminder e-mails:

The Organizers of any event are free to choose between 0-7 days or to disable the reminder feature completely. This could be specified for all events of the current semester or on a per event basis. The default setting is 0 days, which means that the e-mails are sent very early in the morning on the day of the event.

The content of the reminder email is either generic or specific on a per event basis.
