Enabling Email on an Individual Basis

About this task

If you change an individual subscriber's COS profile fields on Edit a Class-of-Service page, you remove any association between the subscriber and any other Class of Service options you may set up in the future. If only a few subscribers need email access, you can enable each subscriber individually, as described in this procedure. However, if you have administered, or are planning to administer, a special COS for email, do not use this procedure. Instead, follow the procedure under Enabling Email by Defining a COS.

Note

The following procedure contains instructions relating only to the one or two fields on a particular screen that you must administer. See Subscriber Administration for complete field descriptions.
