Composing Messages
Use the Compose link in the left panel to compose and send new messages to one or several recipients.
Caution
Caution: In Netscape 4.7x, resizing the Compose window will clear all the fields in the compose window.
To Compose a New Message
- Click Compose in the left panel of the NetMail Lite window.
The Compose Message window appears.
- Type the appropriate information in the following fields:
To: - Type the recipient address(es) in this field. All recipient addresses must be complete Internet mail addresses (for example, someone@siroe.com). If you are sending a message to multiple recipients or multiple aliases, separate each address with a comma. For example, jane.doe@sesta.com, richard.roe@florizon.com.
Subject: - Type the subject matter of the message in the Subject field.
Cc: - Type the addresses of any cc: recipients in the Cc: field.
Bcc: - Type the addresses of any Bcc: recipients. The To and cc recipients will not be able to see the Bcc recipient addresses in the message.
Type your message in the large unlabeled text box.
Use the Address Book to include required email addresses. See "Using the Personal Address Book" for details.
Note
You can compose and send messages directly from the Address Book. See "Using the Address Book to Send Messages" for details.
- Select the Save a copy to the sent messages folder checkbox to keep a copy of your outgoing message.
- Select the Use Signature checkbox to automatically include your signature (define your signature through the Preferences page) when your message is sent.
- Click Send at the bottom of the window.
The message is sent, and you are returned to the Inbox window.
Attaching Files to a Message
- Scroll down to the File to Attach field in the Compose Message window.
- Type the full path of the file to attach, or click Browse... to select the required file.
- Click Attach File to attach the specified file.
The Attachments field located below the message body is updated to reflect the details of the file attached. Repeat the steps to attach more files.
