From your inbox you can:
• read a message
• compose a new message (this can also be
done from your Sent, Trash, Drafts or Address
menus)
• move messages into new folders
• delete messages
Inbox
When you click COMPOSE new email, you
can type in the recipients address or select it
from your address book.
After completing your email you can either
send it or SAVE it as a draft to edit later.
TIP: You can also set the priority of a
message and request a return receipt when
a recipient opens your message.
Attachments…
Although adding attachments is very easy
downloading attachments you receive might
not be…If you cannot download or save an
attachment by simply clicking it, hold down the
Ctrl key then click the link.
Continue holding down the Ctrl key until you
are prompted to save or the document opens.
Attachments can now be 5mgs in size!
Like most email systems within any open message you can:
• reply to sender, reply to all (cc) or forward the
message to another address
With your new webmail system you can also:
• add the addresses of everyone in your incoming email
to your address book with one click!
TIP: Develop a good file management system with your
new email by organizing your email into folders and
delete unneeded emails regularly.
Organization begins in the Folder
tab.
Create new folders, rename
existing ones and share your
folder with other access users!
TIP: This is also where you go to
“empty your trash”. When you
delete an email it goes into the
trashcan. Emptying the trash
actually erases the email from
your mailbox.
Once you’ve created your
folders, return to the Inbox and
select the email you want to
move.
Click on the Move to Folder box
and select the folder you want to
move to and it’s moved!
TIP: To quickly find an email use
the Revise option – it’s like a
search.
Your address book (list of
contacts) is another area you
can organize in your email
system.
Contacts can be added through
an open email Add Addresses,
but you will not see them until
you UPDATE you list. Warning –
Add Addresses adds all the
contacts in the email.
You can also add Contacts
through the New Contact
Feature…
Contact Feature…
Once you’ve added contacts to
your address book you can use
the Search option to find specific
contacts.
You can also use the “Group”
Feature to send email to a
specific set of teachers, for
example the English Dept, or
Math Dept.!
Type in the name of the group
you want to create and select
the individuals you want to add
to the group.
Now when you Compose a new
email you can select the name
of the Group rather than a list of
individuals.

Spam can still be a problem and must be
reported to [email protected] but simply
forwarding the offending email is not enough.
The report must be sent from the original email so
that the “header information” can be seen. To do
that…
Open the message, click the small
triangle to “View message header
detail”.
When the message is displayed
with the full header information,
Press CTRL A (select all)
then CTRL C (copy)
Then compose a new message to
[email protected] and
paste the header and message
body into the new message and
send.
