(G.R. Edizioni)(IT)[!][issue 1999-03].iso/earkit/mail/airmailpro/airmailprodocs/pics/newmail.gif)
How to Compose a complete message
To compose a new message you will need to add recipient(s) to your message, a subject describing your message and optionaly any attachments and the body of the message.
To add a recipient(s) click on the TO: or CC: string gadget, you can type
the users email address directly if know it. If you want to select the users
from the Address Book then click on the Address Book icon at the right of
the TO: or CC: string gadget.
This will open the Recipient window.
Once you have added recipient(s) to your message you need to type in the subject
of the message. Click on the string gadget besides the Subject: text and enter the
message subject.
Next press the TAB key to move the cursor down to the textfield gadget or click inside
the text editor and type the body of the message. When you are done composing your
message you can select Queue to queue the message in the Out Box or select the Send
button to send the message right of way.
Note: Do not Queue or Send an incomplete message. Incomplete message is when there is no recipient. You need atleast one recipient.
