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.
