Menu Item
Description
Connect
Connects NetMail to the mail server.
Disconnect
Disconnects NetMail from the mail server. Choosing Disconnect automatically loads messages into NetMail according to the cache settings in your preferences.
Save Cache to Disk
Copies messages from NetMail and saves them on your disk. By saving your messages on your disk, you can switch off your computer, and access your messages later using a local installation of NetMail. See Using NetMail in Disconnected Mode for details.
Discard Cache & Restart
Discards cached information and restarts NetMail. Use Discard Cache & Restart if the cached information is no longer valid. (This option is available only if you’re running NetMail from a local installation).
Preferences
Provides various options to customize the behavior of NetMail. See "Setting NetMail Preferences" for details.
Personal Address Book
Create, delete and edit aliases. Use the personal address book to simplify email addressing. An alias is a name that you choose to refer to one or more email addresses. When you send mail to an alias, NetMail sends the message to the actual addresses listed under the alias.
Exit
Terminates the NetMail applet and automatically logs out from your IMAP mail server. Exit can also download selected messages, and save cached information to your disk according to the cache settings in your preferences.

Menu Item
Description
Purge Deleted Messages
Removes all messages marked as deleted. This command purges all messages that are marked Deleted in a folder even if they have not been downloaded. This command applies only to the current folder.
More Message Headers
Displays additional headers if you have chosen to limit the number of initial headers that NetMail downloads at one time. Selecting More Message Headers doubles the number of headers that NetMail displays based on the value of Initial Headers that you specified in your preferences. For example, if you have specified the Initial Headers as 5, selecting More Message Headers displays 10 message headers.
Load Selected Messages
Downloads selected messages from your mail server and stores them in NetMail. Use Load Selected Messages if you want to read, compose, and organize your mailbox in disconnected mode. You can load your messages with their attachments, or without their attachments.
Select All
Selects all message headers. This command applies to the currently displayed folder.
Select
Selects message headers by type. For example, you can select all Unread messages. This command applies to the current folder.
Sort by
Determines how NetMail sorts your message headers. NetMail sorts your message headers according to one of the following values: IMAP message number, Status, Cache, From, Size, Date, or Subject.
View
Controls what message headers NetMail automatically displays. For example, Found displays those message headers that match your most recent find command. When you select a message type to view, NetMail saves that setting and displays messages of that type in subsequent sessions.
Find
Searches for messages in the currently displayed folder. Fill in the search criteria, then click Find to start the search. Choose Next to move to the next found message. See "Finding Messages in NetMail" for details.
Move To Folder
Moves a selected message or messages to a specified folder. Moving a message marks it as deleted from the current folder.
Copy To Folder
Copies a selected message or messages to a specified folder.
Note
Load Selected Messages does not save your messages to your disk. If you end your browser session or turn off your computer, you lose the messages stored in NetMail's memory cache.
