Preview
The Preview window gives you a quick view of a message on the server.

When you click the preview button (or double-click a message) PopTray will show the Preview window and then start retrieving the message fro your POP3 server. If your connection is slow, or the message is huge, this can take quite a while. During the download, the Preview window will show a progress meter in the top right-hand corner:

You can abort the download process by clicking the "Stop" button.

Once the entire message has been downloaded you will see different message parts.
From From whom the message was sent.
To To whom the message was sent (usually it's you).
Subject The subject line of the message.
Headers The raw message headers.
Body What you see in the box depends on the "Decode Preview Message" option. If the options is switched off, the raw body text will be shown. When you switch on the option, Preview will decode the Mime parts and show the first plain text part in the body box. All other Mime parts will be show as attachments. e.g..

You can save your message to disk too. Clicking the Save button will ask for you to specify the filename and file type. When "Decode Preview Message" option is on, you can only save the current text body to a TXT file. With the raw message you can also save it to a MSG/EML file, which can be opened by most e-mail clients.
