\item Functionality Blocked?
-Choose communication and/or collaboration functions in LON-CAPA to block for non-privileged users, i.e., users without the ``Evade communication blocking'' (evb) privilege (Course Coordinators or Instructors). The only LON-CAPA messages a non-privileged user can display are ``Critical Messages'' sent by course personnel or by a Domain Coordinator. Users will still be able to send regular LON-CAPA messages, but they will not be viewable by non-privileged recipient(s) also subject to IP-based communication blocking. For functions subject to blocking, a ``Communication blocked'' link will be shown, which when followed will pop-up open a window to explain the cause of the block.

+If IP-based blocking of ``Messaging'' is in effect, the only LON-CAPA messages a non-privileged user can display are ``Critical Messages'' sent by course personnel or by a Domain Coordinator. If "Blocking" is in effect, one of two buttons: (a) ``Move to Inbox'' or (b) ``Confirm Receipt'' will be displayed below each new critical message, but their equivalents with the reply option will not be. Users will also be unable to send regular LON-CAPA messages, except via ``Send Feedback'' (in course context) to send questions to an instructor or other designated course personnel. If ``Send Feedback'' is used within a session subject to IP-based blocking, subject and content originally sent will be replaced in the sender's ``Sent Messages'' Folder with the text: "Not shown due to IP block". Lastly, if the ``Ask helpdesk form settings'' for the domain include the``Cc e-mail'' field as an optional field, that will not apply in the case where IP-based blocking of ``Messaging'' is in effect fo
r a logged-in user who is completing the help form.
