This is what you call you the group of folders
that store all your email. These folders will
contain several standard folders with special
uses.
| Inbox |
|
All email you receive will first
appear in this folder. |
|
|
|
| Outbox |
|
All email you send will initially
queue up in this folder ready to be sent to
your service provider. To actually send an
email to it's destination, you will need to
click on the button called 'Send and Receive'.
The email willthen move into the 'Send Items
' folder. |
|
|
|
| Sent
Items |
|
All email will, by default,
will be recorded in this folder. If you're
not sure if you send an email to a particular
person, take a look in this folder. If it's
there, then you have sent it. |
|
|
|
| Deleted
Items |
|
When you delete an item in your
mailbox, those item(s) get moved to this folder.
They only get truly deleted when you 'Empty
the deleted items folder'. |
|
|
|
| Drafts
|
|
If you're writing an email and
save it, the saved email will be stored in
this folder. |
| |
|
|
| If you use more complex email
applications, then you might have some of
the following folders in addition. |
| |
|
|
| Calendar |
|
This is as it reads, a calendar.
You can make events in your calendar, and
as the event gets close, it will remind you. |
|
|
|
| Contacts |
|
This is like a glorified address
book, which stores more information on a person
than just the email address and name. |
|
|
|
| Tasks |
|
You can create a list of tasks
to do, and you can plan your schedule. This
is not a lot of use unless you're using it
for work related tasks and managing others. |
|
|
|
| Notes |
|
This is basically the electronic
version of the post-it note. |
Those are only the folders that are already created
for specific purposes. You can also create your
own folders, which are very useful for keeping
your mailbox tidy.
