Ensure you're always updated with your chats by turning on email notifications for new messages. This feature ensures you never miss an important message, even when you're away from the messenger.

Good to Know

  • If you have already read a message in the messenger, you won’t receive an email notification for that message.

  • Email notifications for multiple messages will be bundled into a single notification.

  • Each chat sends a separate notification, so private messages and group chat messages are not combined into a single email.

Enabling Email Notifications

  1. Go to Settings > Additional Options > Messages.



  2. Expand the Email Notifications setting.

  3. Enable Send email notifications.



  4. Choose the types of messages you want to receive notifications for: either messages in private chats or in both private and group chats.



    Email notifications arrive within 30 minutes of receiving a message.


    To respond to a message from an email notification, click on Open Messages or on the user's profile photo in the email notification. You will be redirected to the chat in the messenger, where you can write your response.



    Messages from group chats will not be displayed in the email. To read these, click on Open Messages.
