Mailbox Management

For each message in the mailbox, several message header fields are displayed. The messages are sorted by the highlighted field. The field name (link) can be used to highlight a different field and to change the sorting order.

A message can be opened using a link in the first and/or highlighted columns.

 

Display

This button tells the WebUser module to display not more than the specified number of the mailbox messages. If the Filter field is not empty, only the messages with the highlighted field containing the filter string are displayed. If the Search field is not empty, only the messages containing the search string are displayed.

 

Read

The Set button can be used to mark the selected messages as "read", the Clear button can be used to mark the selected messages as "unread".

 

Flagged

The Set button can be used to mark the selected messages with a flag, the Clear button can be used to remove the flag marker from the selected messages.

 

Copy To

This button can be used to copy the selected messages into the specified mailbox.

 

Move To

This button can be used to copy the selected messages into the specified mailbox; the original message is deleted or it is marked as deleted (if the WebUser Interface Delete Mode is set to Marked).

 

Redirect To, Forward To

This button can be used to redirect or forward the selected messages to the specified addresses. The address field below the buttons should contain one or several addresses separated with the comma signs.

 

Mailbox Management

This link can be used to open the Mailbox Management page.

The following buttons appear if the WebUser Interface Delete Mode is set to Mark

 

Delete

The Set button is used to mark the selected messages as "deleted", the Clear button can be used to clear the "deleted" markers.

 

Purge Deleted

This button is used to remove the messages marked as "deleted" from the mailbox.

If the the WebUser Interface Delete Mode is set to Via Trash or Immediately, the following button appears:

 

Delete

Click this button to move the selected message(s) to the Trash mailbox (the Via Trash Delete Mode) or to mark all selected messages as "deleted" and remove all marked messages immediately (the Immediately Delete Mode).

You can open the Settings page and specify how mailboxes should be displayed:

Mailbox Viewer

Display:

Refresh Every:

Display

This option specifies how many messages should be displayed on one Mailbox page. If a mailbox has more messages than this option specifies, an arrow links appear to allow you to "page" the entire Mailbox.

 

Refresh Every

This option specifies how often the Mailbox pages should be automatically updated.

 

Sort

This set of radio buttons allows you to select the field for initial (default) mailbox sorting.

 

Reverse

This option specifies the initial (default) mailbox sorting order.

The WebUser Interface Settings page also allows you to specify the Delete Mode:

Miscellaneous

Message Delete Method:

Move To Trash

The delete operation moves the selected message(s) to the Trash mailbox. This option available for multi-mailbox accounts only. If the Trash mailbox does not exist, the first delete operation creates it.

 

Mark

The delete operation marks the selected message(s) as "deleted". The marked messages can be removed using the Purge Deleted operation.

 

Immediately

The delete operation marks the selected message(s) as "deleted" and then immediately deletes all marked messages from the mailbox.

 

 


Mailbox Management

New Mailbox Name:

Remove Submailboxes

Rename Submailboxes

The Mailbox Management page allows you to set the ACL (Access Control List) settings for the selected mailbox, to rename, and to remove the mailbox.

To rename a mailbox, type the new mailbox name into the New Mailbox Name field and click the Rename Mailbox button. If the Rename Submailboxes option is selected, all submailboxes of this mailbox will be renamed, too. If you are renaming the mailbox Sent into Sent in 2000, and you also have the Sent/customers submailboxe, that submailbox is renamed into Sent in 2000/customers if the Rename Submailboxes option is selected.

Note: If you rename your INBOX, the new empty INBOX is automatically created.

To remove a mailbox, click the Remove Mailbox button. If the Remove Submailboxes option is selected, all submailboxes of this mailbox will be removed, too. If you are removing the mailbox Sent, and you also have the Sent/customers submailboxe, that submailbox is removed, too - if the Remove Submailboxes option is selected.

 

Note: You cannot remove your INBOX.
