4.1.1 Mail
The folder area to the left contains a list of your mail folders (mail boxes) indicating
the total number of messages and how many are still unread. To select a folder, simply
click it. The messages in that folder appear in the top right frame. The number of mes-
sages in that folder is also shown in the status bar at the bottom of the application win-
dow.
The subject, sender, and time of receipt of each message are listed in the header area
to the right. Click a message to select it and display it in the message window. Sort the
messages by clicking one of the column headers (subject, sender, date, etc.). The contents
of the currently selected message are displayed in the message frame of the window.
Attachments are depicted as icons at the end of the message, based on the MIME type
of the attachment, or they can be displayed inline.
