1.5.1 Home Folder

Your Home folder (indicated by your name) represents your GroupWise database. All folders in your Main Window are subfolders of your Home folder. The Home folder can be organized into panels to display your most important folders. For more information, see Section 2.4, Using Panels to Organize Your Home Folder.

1.5.2 Mailbox Folder

The Mailbox displays all the items you have received, with the exception of scheduled items (appointments, tasks, and reminder notes) you have accepted or declined. By default, scheduled items and tasks are moved to the Calendar when you accept them.

Your received items are stored in your GroupWise Mailbox. You can quickly change what is displayed by clicking a setting on the Find drop-down list. See Section 7.1, Quickly Finding Items in a Folder for more information.

You can organize your messages by moving them into folders within your Cabinet, and you can create new folders as necessary. For more information, see Section 2.3, Using Folders to Organize Your Mailbox.

You can also organize your messages by assigning categories to them. Each category displays as a different color in your Mailbox. You can find items based on categories. For more information, see Using Categories to Organize Items.

The Calendar folder shows scheduled items (appointments, tasks, and reminder notes) that you have accepted. There are several calendar view options.

1.5.10 Junk Mail Folder

All e-mail items from addresses and Internet domains that are junked through Junk Mail Handling are placed in the Junk Mail folder . This folder is not created in the Folder List unless a Junk Mail option is enabled.

While Junk Mail options are enabled, this folder cannot be deleted. However, the folder can be renamed or moved to a different location in the Folder List. If all Junk Mail options are disabled, the folder can be deleted. The folder can also be deleted if the Junk Mail Handling feature is disabled by the system administrator.

For more information about Junk Mail Handling, see Handling Unwanted E-Mail (Spam).

1.5.11 Trash Folder

All deleted mail and phone messages, appointments, tasks, documents, and reminder notes are stored in the Trash folder . Items in the Trash can be viewed, opened, or returned to your Mailbox before the Trash is emptied. (Emptying the Trash removes items in the Trash from the system.)

You can empty your entire Trash, or empty only selected items. Items in the Trash are automatically emptied according to the number of days entered in the Cleanup tab in Environment Options, or you can empty the Trash manually. The system administrator can specify that your Trash is emptied automatically on a regular basis.

For more information, see Section 16.6, Managing Trash.

1.5.12 Shared Folders

A shared folder is like any other folder in your Cabinet, except other people have access to it. You can create shared folders or share existing personal folders in your Cabinet. You choose whom to share the folder with, and what rights to grant each user. Users can post messages to the shared folder, drag existing items into the folder, and create discussion threads. You can’t share system folders, which include the Cabinet, Trash, and Work In Progress folders.

If you place a document in a shared folder, people with rights to the shared folder don’t automatically have rights to edit the document. Before they can edit the document, you must give them Edit rights on the Sharing tab.

For more information, see Using Shared Folders.
