- Sending/Forwarding Mail
- ───────────────────────
-
- Mail in your Outgoing Mailbox can be Sent to
- others. Mail in your Incoming Mailbox can be
- Forwarded to others. The screens and actions
- of Sending and Forwarding are the same. To
- simplify this discussion, the following refers
- to both Sending and Forwarding unless otherwise
- stated.
-
- The menu selections on the Send Screen are made
- a bit differently from those on the other
- screens. This is to prevent accidental
- Sending, and to maintain consistency on the
- Send menu. On the Send Screen, one or more
- recipients may be selected to receive the
- highlighted mail item.
-
-
- Send Screen Elements
- ────────────────────
-
-
- The Send Screen is made up of four elements;
-
-
- ╒══════ 1 ══════╕ 1 = Title and Menu lines
- │ ┌─2─3─4─┐ │
- │ │ │ │ │ │ 2 = Tag column
- │ │ └───┘ │ │
- │ └───────┘ │ 3 = Full Names of Mail users
- └───────────────┘
- 4 = Tag Statistics
-
-
-
- 1 - Title & Menu lines
- ──────────────────────
- The top line on the screen, or Title Line,
- displays the program name and version number.
- The second line, or Menu Line, displays the
- currently available menu options. The
- highlighted letter of each option is the one
- which invokes the action. For example, pressing
- <Alt-T> at the Send Screen lets you Tag a name.
-
- HINT: The first option of every menu may be
- also selected be pressing <Enter>.
-
-
- 2 - Tag Column
- ──────────────
- An asterisk in this column indicates that a
- name has been Tagged to receive a copy of the
- highlighted mail item.
-
-
- 3 - Full Names of mail users
- ────────────────────────────
- The names in this column are the Full Names of
- users as entered in the Novell Syscon utility,
- usually by your network administrator.
-
-
- 4 - Tag Statistics
- ──────────────────
- The Tag Statistics indicate how many names have
- been tagged out of the total number available.
- For example, assuming there are a total of 20
- names on the Send list;
-
- Number of Tag
- names Tagged Statistics Display
- ───────────── ──────────────────
- 0 (0/20)
- 3 (3/20)
- 10 (20/20)
-
-
- The Send window can only display 18 names at a
- time, so the Tag Statistics can tell you if
- there are names tagged (or untagged) that are
- not currently visible in the window.
-
-
- Send/Forward Menu
- ─────────────────
-
-
- There are five options on the Send/Forward
- menu. The options are selectable by typing the
- highlighted letter, or by pressing <Enter> to
- select the first menu option. The Send/Forward
- Menu options are explained below.
-
-
- Tag/Untag One
- ─────────────
- Position the cursor on the desired name. To
- toggle the Tag mark (which is an asterisk)
- press <Alt-T> or <Enter>. Do this once and the
- Tag mark appears. Do it again and the Tag mark
- disappears, thereby untagging the name. You
- can continue to Tag or untag as many names as
- you wish.
-
-
- Tag/Untag All
- ─────────────
- Press <Alt-A> to Tag or Untag all names on the
- list. You can verify the results of your
- action by checking the Tag Statistics.
-
-
- Quick Find
- ──────────
- You can quickly move through the list of names
- by typing the first letter of a desired name.
- For example, pressing the letter <S> will move
- the cursor immediately to the first name in the
- list that begins with that letter.
-
-
- Tagging Group Members
- ─────────────────────
- If you wish to Tag members of one or more
- Novell Groups, pressing <Alt-G> will bring up a
- menu of Group names. When you Tag a Group on
- this menu, you are returned to the Send Screen
- and all the members in the selected Group are
- Tagged. You may make as many selections from
- the Group menu as you wish. Also, individual
- selections may be combined with Group
- selections.
-
-
- Send Mail
- ─────────
- When you are finished Tagging names, press
- <Alt-S> to Send the higlighted mail to the
- selected recipients. If the recipient is
- currently logged in, a Novell message will
- appear at the bottom of their screen indicating
- that you have sent them mail. If they are not
- logged in, you will receive a message that
- indicates this, but the mail will still be
- sent. It is useful to know that since the a
- recipient is not logged in, an immediate reply
- is unlikely.
