Sending and Receiving E-mail

Managing e-mail is done from the Mailbox page in Web Mail. The Mailbox page is the first page you see after logging into Web Mail and looks like this.

Reading Messages
To read a message, click the message subject heading in the Item List. The message will open in a separate browser window. If there are more messages than will fit on one page, you may click the Next and Back buttons at the bottom of the page to switch pages. To view messages in a different folder, click the folder's name in the Folder List.

Figure 2: Read Mail Toolbar

When a message window is open, several options are available to you:

Close - Close the message window.

Previous - Move to the previous message in the folder.

Next - Move to the next message in the folder.

Forward - Forward the message to another user. Clicking this button opens a Compose window where you can add additional message text and specify the recipients of the forward. See Sending Mail below for more information.

Reply to Sender - Opens a Compose window to reply to the sender of the message only.

Reply All - Opens a Compose window to reply to the sender of the message and all recipients.

Move - Allows you to move the message to a different folder. After clicking Move, WebAccess will prompt you for the desired destination folder. Select the folder to which you wish to move the message and click OK.

Delete - Deletes the message.(Use Purge All in the toolbar to trash the messages that have been marked for deletion.)

Read Later - Marks the message as unread in the folder. It will appear in boldface in the message listing as if you had not yet read the message. This is useful if you wish to remind yourself to read certain messages when you next check your mailbox.

Accept - If the message is an appointment, task, or note, informs the sender that you have accepted the item and places the item in your personal calendar. See Using the Calendar for more information on Au-Net Mail Calendaring.

Decline - If the message is an appointment, task, or note, informs the sender that you have declined the item. The item is not placed in your personal calendar. See Using the Calendar for more information on Au-Net Mail Calendaring.

View Source - View the complete message headers and source code of the message.

Attachments - If a message has attachments, they will be listed under Attachments in the message header. Click the name of an attachment to download it to your computer.
