Understanding Your Mailbox
All of your items, whether you send or receive them, are stored in your GroupWise Mailbox. You can quickly display only received items, sent items, posted items, or draft items by clicking a setting on the Display drop-down list. You can further restrict which items display in your Mailbox by using filters. See Managing Your Mailbox for more information.
You can organize your messages by moving them into folders within your Cabinet, and you can create new folders as necessary. See Using the Folder List for more information.
You can also organize your messages by assigning them categories. Each category displays as a different color in your Mailbox. You can filter on categories.
Bolded Items in Your Mailbox
All unopened items in your Mailbox are bolded to help you easily identify which items and documents you have not yet read. The icon appearing next to an item also indicates if it is unopened.
Collapsed discussion threads are marked with bold text if there are items in the thread that are unread. This saves you the time of expanding each thread to check if there are newly posted items.
Sent items are also bolded to show when they are queued but not uploaded, status information has not been received about the item being delivered, or they have not yet been transferred to the Internet.
