Sent
- As you send an email message, the email is displayed in the Sent folder (expanded view), with its
status just to the left. In the illustration above you’ll see the status indicators showing the top email is
being sent (
), the second is waiting to be sent (
), and the third was not sent due to a delivery
problem (
).
After a message has been sent, it disappears from the Sent folder, unless you specify in the Email
Preferences screen that you want to
Save outgoing messages in Sent folder
. If you’ve set this
preference, a copy of every email you compose and send will be saved in the Sent folder.
•
Drafts
- If you start composing an email but want to pause in writing it or wait to send it, then you can
save the email in the Drafts folder and later open it and continue. (Read more in
•
Trash
- Every message you discard from other folders is moved to the Trash folder. Discarded emails
accumulate in the Trash until you explicitly use the menu option to
Empty Trash
. As long as an email
stays in the Trash, however, you can restore it to another folder. (Read more in
page 87.)
Sort Email Messages

1
Open the Browse Email screen and click
Sort...

By default, messages are sorted by date & time, with newer messages appearing at the top.
