Managing folders

View folders: Your folder list appears on the left side (Inbox, Sent, Drafts, Trash, and any custom folders you've created).

Move a message: Select a message and click Move, then choose the destination folder. Or drag and drop the message into a folder.

Create a new folder: Look for a New Folder option (usually in a menu or folder list context menu). Name it and save.

Delete messages: Select a message and click Delete. It moves to Trash. To permanently remove it, empty the Trash folder.

Searching your mailbox

2. Type a sender name, subject, or keyword from the message body.
3. Press Enter or click the search button.
4. Results show matching emails. Click any result to open it.
5. To search only the current folder, use the folder's search option before running a mailbox-wide search.

Quick tips

• Drafts folder: Messages you compose but don't send are saved here. Return to them to finish and send later.
• Sent folder: Copies of all emails you've sent are stored automatically.
• Starred or flagged messages: Some versions let you mark important emails with a star or flag for quick access.
• Read vs. unread: Click a message to mark it read; unread messages are often highlighted so you know what's new.
