Changing An E-Mail To Another Item Type - Novell GROUPWISE 8 - LINUX-MAC CLIENT Manual

Changing the Subject of an E-Mail You Receive
If you personalize a subject, the new subject displays in your Mailbox and Calendar and in the
Mailbox and Calendar of anyone who proxies for you. If you change the subject of an item in a
shared folder, other users of the shared folder still see the original subject.
1 Open an item from your Mailbox or Calendar.
2 Click the Personalize tab.
3 Type a new subject in the My Subject field.
To see the original subject, open the item and look in the Subject field in the item header.
When you perform a Find with a specific word in the Subject field, the Find results show items
whose original subject or personalized subject contains this word. When you create an Advanced
Find, use the Subject field to search for the original subject, and use the My Subject field to search
for the personalized subject.
When you create a rule that looks for a specific word in the Subject field, the rule only looks at the
original subject.
Adding a Note to an E-Mail You Receive
When you add a note to an e-mail you receive, the note is visible to you and anyone who proxies for
you. You can only view the note only by using the Personalize tab for the e-mail.
1 Open an item from your Mailbox or Calendar.
2 Click the Personalize tab.
3 In the My Notes field, type your note. The note is automatically saved when you leave the
Personalize tab.

See "Using Categories to Organize Items" on page

3.4.2 Changing an E-Mail to Another Item Type

You can use Change To to convert an item in your Mailbox to another type of item. For example,
you can change a mail message in your Mailbox to an appointment in your Calendar. The new
appointment contains all the information from the mail message (such as To, CC, and BC lists,
subject, and message text) that is applicable in the appointment.
When you change a mail or phone message to another type of item (such as an appointment or task),
the original item is removed from your Mailbox and the new item is added in the appropriate
location, such as the Calendar.
When you change an item, GroupWise displays the default item view selected in Environment
Options.
1 In your Mailbox, click the item you want to change.
2 Click Edit > Change To, then click an item type.
