Email Copies of Messages Received While the Course is Closed are not Sent to the User's Email Inbox

Email copies of messages received while the course is closed are not sent/delivered to the user's email inbox

Description

If an Instructor sends a course-wide message (or a message to a specific student) within a closedcourse, and makes sure the option to send a copy via email is selected, the user never receives that email

Steps to Replicate

  1. Log into Blackboard Learn Ultra as an Administrator

  2. Go to any Ultra course

  3. Enroll a couple of test students, and add an active/accessible email address to one of them

  4. Close the course

  5. Go to the course's Messages section

  6. Notice the banner: Recipients will receive an email copy of this message, but can't reply until you open the course

  7. Send a message to all course members

  8. Access the student email inbox and wait for the email copy

Observed Behavior:

The email never arrives

Expected Behavior:

The email copy of the message is delivered although the user can't reply to it
