3.2.1. What is the E-Mail module for?

In the E-Mail module you can

  • display E-Mail messages,

  • send E-Mail messages,

  • manage E-Mail messages, e.g.: search, move, and copy.

3.2.2. What is the purpose of the E-Mail folders?

E-Mail folders give a structure to E-Mail messages.

The following E-Mail folders are available by default:

  • Inbox. By default this folder receives all incoming E-Mail messages.

  • Drafts. Contains all E-Mail messages that you have saved as drafts.

  • Sent items. Contains all E-Mail messages sent by you.

  • Trash. By default contains all E-Mail messages deleted by you.

You can create additional E-Mail folders in the Inbox folder. You can not create subfolders in the other E-Mail folders.

Information on folder management can be found in 8.5: Folder Management. Information on sharing folders can be found in 8.6: Permission management.

If you use additional E-Mail accounts besides your Open-Xchange E-Mail you can set up further E-Mail accounts. Each E-Mail account gets a folder in the folder tree.

Information on how to set up additional E-Mail accounts can be found in 8.2.5.3: Additional E-Mail accounts.
