Why did I receive an email when someone sent me an in-app message?

Whenever a message is sent, whether it is a direct message or an announcement from the organizer, Whova sends it through the app and as an email. This feature of Whova is to ensure that you and your attendees do not miss out on an opportunity to network with the right people. By sending a message through the app as well as an email, even attendees who have not downloaded the app will get announcements and direct messages alike.
