Reading an Email Message
From the Email screen, select a specific email message by moving the cursor on the left
side of the screen up or down until it points to the message you want. Do this by using
the and arrow keys on the keyboard, or the large up/down scroll keys to the right of
the display screen. Then press the function key labeled
r
eaD
, or simply press the
Enter
key on the keyboard. As a shortcut, you can simply press the small key on either side of
the display that lines up with the email you wish to read.
Once you have opened an email message, you can scroll up and down through the
message (if it is longer than the screen can show) by using the up and down scroll keys
to the right of the display, or the and arrow keys on the keyboard. While reading the
message, the function keys at the bottom of the screen give you several options from
which to choose:
r
eplY
– Send a reply email to the sender of the currently displayed message. Use this
to automatically create a new email message addressed to the sender, and with the
same subject line with
“Re:”
inserted before it. The text of the original message is
automatically included in your reply message. The original email remains unchanged.
This key is only present when viewing emails that you have received, not those that
you have sent.
r
eplY
a
ll
(only visible when the
Ctrl
key is held down)
– Allows you to send a reply email
to all of those addresses shown as recipients of the original message. You can add
or delete additional addresses by moving the cursor to the
To:
line and making those
changes manually, or you can add email addresses by using the
a
DDreSS
function.
Tip:
You may want to delete your own email address from the
To:
line.
f
orwarD
– Send a copy of the email message to another email address. You may replace
the subject line with your own words, add your own preface to the forwarded mes-
sage, and/or edit the content of the message. Enter the addresses by manually typing
them or by using the Email Address Book, which you can access by pressing the
a
D
-
DreSS
key. The original email remains unchanged.
D
elete
– Deletes an email message from your MailBug. This can be done either
while reading the email message, or directly from the Email mailbox screen. For more
information on deleting email messages from memory and the options available, see
the section “Deleting Email Messages” below.
N
ext
– Allows you to move to the next message on the email summary list and open it for
viewing without having to first return to the Email mailbox screen. The
Enter
key can
also be used to advance to the next message. The
N
ext
key does not appear when
you are viewing the last message in your email mailbox.
4.5.2
Adding an email address to the message you are already
composing or forwarding
When composing or forwarding an email message, you can select email addresses from
those already in your Address Book instead of typing the email addresses explicitly. This
will save you time and reduce typing errors when addressing your email messages. Simply
press the
a
DDreSS
function key to enter the Address Book, scroll to the address you want
to add, and then press the appropriate function key to specify how you want that address
used (To:, CC:, or BCC:). The address you selected will be added to the
To:
line of the
message you were working on, and you will be returned to the message you had open for
viewing, composing, or forwarding.
The function keys available in the Address Book screens are:
t
o
:
place the selected email address on the “
To:
” line of a
message and return to the composing email screen
CC:
do the same as
To:
but also add “
cc:
” in front of the address
BCC:
do the same as
To:
but also add “
bcc:
” in front of the address
c
reate
make a new entry in the Email Address Book
c
HaNge
make changes to (edit) an existing Address Book entry
D
elete
remove entries from the Address Book
Note:
You can un-delete the most recently deleted Address Book entry by holding
down the
Ctrl
key and then pressing the
UnDelete
function key, provided you have
not left the Address Book screen.

Printing Email
If you use a MailBug in addition to a computer, then you can print any of your MailBug
email by using your computer to access MailBug’s webmail site
(webmail.mailbug.com)
, or
by forwarding your email to other email accounts and printing it from there. But if you use
only your MailBug, and you don’t use a computer, you can still print your email. However,
because MailBug is not a computer, it does not print directly to a computer printer. Instead,
you can use your MailBug to print to a fax machine.
It’s as easy as sending email. To print an email to a fax, or just to compose and send a fax
by email, all you need to do is send an email to a special email address, and the MailBug
system will fax it for you.
