+# Notifications
+___
+
+Notifications in Mattermost alert you to unread mentions and messages.
+
+## Types of Notifications
+
+#### Email Notifications
+These are emails sent to your primary email address for any mentions you receive while offline or inactive.
+- Users are offline when they do not have Mattermost open.
+- Users are inactive when they have Mattermost open but haven’t performed an action for a set amount of time.
+- You can change the email to which these notifications are sent in **Account Settings** > **General** > **Email**.
+- You can turn email notifications on or off in **Account Settings** > **Notifications** > **Email Notifications**.
+
+#### Desktop Notifications
+These are browser notifications that are by default sent for all activity.
+- You can adjust this setting in **Account Settings** > **Notifications** > **Send Desktop Notifications**.
+- Channel specific notifications are automatically set to the global default but can be modified in **Channel Settings** > **Notification Preferences** > **Send Desktop Notifications**.
+- Desktop notifications are available on Firefox, Safari, and Chrome.
+
+
+#### Sound Notifications
+These accompany each desktop notification by default.
+- You can change this setting in **Account Settings** > **Notifications** > **Desktop Notification Sounds**.
+
+
+#### Browser Tab Notifications
+These appear in the Mattermost tab and inform you of any unread messages and alert you to the number of mentions you have.
+- Unread messages are denoted by an asterisk (*) next to the Mattermost icon.
+- Mentions and replies are denoted by a red Mattermost icon.
+- The total number of unread mentions and replies are shown in brackets next to the Mattermost icon. For example, if you have 3 unread mentions, you’ll see a (3) in the browser tab.
