yahMAIL Guide - Folder Browse

Example yahMAIL NEWMAIL folder.
  1. Page Header: often containing local site information.
  2. Folder: current username / mail file / mail folder.
  3. Message Group: messages are grouped into managable numbers. When highlighted this number-range allows other groups in the same folder to be listed.
  4. Current Date: the date/time the page was generated.
  5. Message Checkbox: allows one of more listed messages to be selected for actions such as delete, move.
  6. Check-All: selecting/deselecting this checkbox checks/unchecks all other message checkboxes.
  7. Message Number: selecting this link displays the message. To open in an separate window most browsers allow a right-click on the link. Select Open in New Window from the menu.
  8. Message Item: shows the message subject, sender and date arrived.
  9. Message Actions: set of buttons providing standard mail actions. NEWMAIL, MAIL, SENT, WASTEBASKET, represent folders. When a message is selected the button moves it to that folder. When no messages are selected the button opens that folder. EMPTY deletes all messages currently in the WASTEBASKET folder. DELETE deletes a selected message immediately (and concurrently empties the WASTEBASKET) - caution.
  10. Folder Actions: allows a folder to be created (by entering it's name) when moving or copying selected messages, or opens the selected or specified folder.
  11. CREATE-SEND: button opens the message create-send page.
  12. Auto-Wrap: specifies to message CREATE-SEND whether message lines should be automatically wrapped at 72 columns.
  13. Attachments: specifies the maximum number of attachments that can be added to a CREATE-SEND message (in that it provides that number of attachment BROWSE buttons). Note that not all sites may support this facility and so it may not be present.
  14. Pre-Edited: message text may be composed on the host system and then/later uploaded into the CREATE-SEND message text area.
  15. SHOW Setup: displays the yahMAIL setup buttons.
  16. ADDRESS LISTS: opens the separate address lists page.
  17. CHANGE PROFILE: allows the VMS Mail user's profile to be modified.
  18. Page Footer: often containing local site information, help references (such as this), etc.
