Discussion forums, sometimes called as message boards or bulletin boards, allow your users to participate in online conversations by posting responses. These conversations differ from chatrooms in that they are organized into subject-based threads and archived.
Entityform uses the Rules module for its notification system. When editing an Entityform Type, you can select rules to be run upon saving an Entityform Submission under the Notifications Settings tab for the Entityform Type. Rules and Rules Components that are tagged with "entityform submission" will be shown in this list.
Installation
Install and enable Rules and Rules UI. Note: if Rules UI is disabled, then the Entityforms Rules will not show up.
Note: there are also settings at Configuration » Content authoring » Entityform settings. (I assume these are for defaults that will be used when creating a new Entityform Type, but this needs confirmation from the module maintainer.)
Entityforms Rules
There two default Rules that come with the module:
Email Entityform Submitter: Sends an email to the submitter.
Administrative access to your web host, including the ability to create a new database and a new database user;
An SFTP client (WinSCP and Filezilla are two good ones, if you don't have one already).
In addition to the minimum requirements for a Drupal installation, Julio requires PHP 5.3. Additionally, Julio has been tested most extensively on Linux-based systems. Julio works best with 64MB of memory or more for PHP.
Once you have all the prerequisites in hand, you can get started with the install.
Log on to your web host's control panel, and create a new MySQL database. There are many ways to do this; if you are unsure of the best way to proceed, consult with your host's help pages.
Write down name of the new database - you will need this later.
Julio is a distribution for schools, school districts, and academic departments from K-12 to higher education. Built in Drupal 7, Julio provides a solid foundation to meet the specific needs of your organization. Using Julio, different people can be given control over different sections of your site.

Julio's features include:
A responsive theme that displays cleanly across all modern browsers and mobile devices;
Customizable layout and appearance options;
Four types of user groups for administrative units, clubs, teams, and departments. You can create as many user groups of each type as you like, to suit your organizational structure;
A set of events and announcement tools for advertising events either within a specific section of the site or across the whole organization;
Slideshows and image galleries for showcasing your school's pictures and media;
Directory pages that display staff and faculty contact information, photos, and bios;
