1 - The Basics
If you just have a quick question, you might want to look at the FAQ.
Island Email is laid out in two main sections called frames. The left frame lists the currently subscribed folders. More information about the left frame may be found under the "Folders" section of this help documentation.
On the right is where most of the action will take place. At the top of the page is a menu bar. Sign out will safely log you out of the program when you are finished. The Current Folder displays which of the folders listed in the left frame you are currently in. Right after you log in, by default your INBOX will be shown.
Under the top bar is a row of menu choices:
- Compose - Make and send an email which may include attachments.
- Addresses - Holds a list of addresses that are contained in your personal address book.
- Folders - All folder manipulation takes place under this. You can delete, create, rename, subscribe, and unsubscribe folders.
- Options - Change settings of how Island Email responds and looks.
- Search - With this tool, you can search through a mailbox for given criteria.
