The members of the class are listed with their IDs and whether they are emailed or the message needs to be Posted.
a summary is then shown giving the number of members on the wait list (these do not receive the email), the number of students enrolled, the number of students emailed, the number of students posted.
Do not leave the page until all class members have been listed.
