    Displaying full header information
    By default, Mail displays abbreviated header information, which 
    comprises only the From: and Subj: fields. The full header provides 
    complete information about the sender, receiver, and copied 
    recipients, in addition to the subject and date the e-mail item was 
    created. Mail uses the header type you select for all your e-mail items.
    To display full header information:
    1. Open an e-mail item.
    2. Tap the Complete Header icon.
    Tip:To redisplay the abbreviated header, tap the Abbreviated 
    Header icon. 
    Creating e-mail items
    You create e-mail items with your organizer the same way you create 
    e-mail with your desktop E-mail application: you identify the 
    recipient(s) of the e-mail item, define a subject, and create the body of 
    the e-mail item.
    You create original e-mail items and replies in the New Message 
    screen. All e-mail items must, at the very least, contain information in 
    the To: and Subj: fields.

    To create an e-mail item:
    1. Tap New.
    Tip:You can also create an e-mail item by tapping New from 
    the Message menu.
    2. Enter the e-mail address of the recipient.
    Note:Enter the address as if you were entering it from your 
    desktop E-Mail application. For example, network users 
    sending an e-mail item to a user on the same network do 
    not need to add Internet information, such as 
    @mycorp.com.
    3. To send a copy of this e-mail item to additional recipients, tap the 
    CC: field, and then enter the e-mail addresses of the additional 
    recipients, separating the addresses with a comma followed by a 
    space.
    4. Tap the Subj: field and enter a subject for your e-mail item. 
    5. Tap the Body: field and enter the text of your e-mail item.

    of the screen display, tap the name of the field (for 
    example, tap “To:”) to expand that field. Tap the Done 
    button to return to the New Message screen.
    To reply to an e-mail item:

    Looking up an address
    To identify the recipient of an e-mail item, you need to enter that 
    person’s e-mail address. You can do this either by entering the data 
    directly into the field or by using the Look Up command to access the 
    information in your Address Book. 
    To look up an e-mail address:
    1. Tap either the To: or CC: field name to expand it.
    2. Enter the first few letters of the last name of the person whose 
    address you want to find. 
    3. Tap Lookup. 
    4. If the letters you enter identify a unique listing from your Address 
    Book, your organizer completes the address for you. If not, the 
    Lookup dialog box appears and lists all records that contain 
    information in an E-mail field.
    Tip:You can also open the Look Up dialog box in the New 
    Message screen by tapping Lookup from the Options 
    menu or by using the Graffiti
    ® Command stroke /L. 
    5. Enter the first letter of the entry you want to find to scroll to the 
    first entry that begins with that letter. If you write an additional 
    letter, the list scrolls to the first entry that starts with those two 
    letters. For example, writing an “s” scrolls to “Sanders,” and 
    writing “sm” scrolls to “Smith.”
    6. Tap an address to select it.
    7. Tap Add.
    Tap Lookup

    Adding details to e-mail items
    Before you send your e-mail item, you can attach additional attributes 
    to it, such as a signature or a priority level. These features are 
    dependent on the desktop E-mail application you use. If your 
    application does not support the attribute you select, your organizer 
    cannot attach that attribute to the e-mail item.
    The following details are available:
    Note:The Priority and BCC settings are valid only for the current 
    e-mail item and must be set for each item you create. Priority
    Flags an e-mail item as High, Normal, or Low 
    priority.
    BCC
    Creates a blind carbon copy field in the New 
    Message screen. 
    Signature
    Attaches previously defined text as the closing of an 
    e-mail item. See “Adding a signature to your e-mail 
    item” later in this chapter.
    Confirm 
    ReadRequests a confirmation telling you when the 
    e-mail item was read.
    Confirm 
    DeliveryRequests a confirmation telling you when the 
    e-mail item was delivered.

    2. Tap the Priority pick list and select the priority you want.

    To add a BCC field to your e-mail item:
    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Tap the BCC check box to select it.

    4. Tap the BCC: field and enter an address. 
    Adding a signature to your e-mail item
    A signature consists of information about yourself that is appended to 
    your e-mail item as its closing. For example, a signature can contain 
    your name, address, phone and fax numbers, and any other text you 
    want to include. By defining such information as a signature, you save 
    yourself the trouble of having to enter it every time you create an 
    e-mail item. 
    Adding a signature to your message is a two-part process. First, you 
    create your signature. Then you select the Signature option. 
    To create a signature:
    1. Tap the Menu icon  .
    2. Tap Options, and then tap Preferences.
    3. Tap the Signature text field and enter the text of your signature. 
    4. Tap OK.

    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Tap the Signature check box to select it and add your signature to 
    the e-mail item.
    Note:The check box stays selected, so all subsequent e-mail 
    items you create will also contain your signature until you 
    deselect the Signature option. 
    3. Tap OK.
    Note:The signature does not display in your e-mail item; only your 
    recipient sees the signature.
    Requesting confirmations
    To receive a confirmation when your e-mail item is read:
    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Tap the Confirm Read check box to select it. 
    3. Tap OK.
    To receive a confirmation when your e-mail item is delivered:
    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Select the Confirm Delivery check box to select it. 
    3. Tap OK.
    Storing e-mail to be sent later
    When you send e-mail from your organizer, it actually stores the 
    e-mail in the Outbox folder until the next time you synchronize your 
    organizer with your computer. During synchronization, all e-mail 
    stored in the Outbox folder is transferred to the Outbox folder in your 
    desktop E-Mail application. E-mail created on your organizer is sent 
    out the next time you send mail from your desktop E-Mail application.
    To send e-mail:
    nAfter you create an e-mail item, tap Send. 
    Editing unsent e-mail
    You can make changes to an e-mail that has not yet been sent, as long 
    as you have not yet performed a HotSync operation. When you edit an 
    e-mail item, your organizer removes the item from the Outbox folder 
    and takes you back to the New Message screen, where you can edit the 
    item and resend it, save it as a draft, or delete it. 
    						
    							Chapter 5 Page 121
    To retrieve an e-mail item:
    1. In the Message List, tap Outbox from the pick list in the upper-
    right corner.
    2. Tap the e-mail item you want to retrieve.
    3. Tap Edit.
    Draft e-mail
    Sometimes you may not want to send an e-mail item immediately; for 
    example, you may want to add additional information before sending 
    it. Your organizer stores such e-mail items in the Draft folder until you 
    are ready to edit them again.
    Note:When you’re creating or editing an e-mail item, you can also 
    save the item as a draft by canceling it. When you cancel an 
    item, your organizer opens a dialog asking if you want to save 
    the e-mail item. If you tap Yes, your organizer saves the item 
    in the Draft folder.

    3. Tap Edit.
    4. Enter your changes; then either save the e-mail item again as a 
    draft, or tap Send to move the item to your Outbox folder.
    Filing e-mail
    Your organizer can store e-mail you receive or create in the Filed 
    folder. The contents of this folder do not automatically synchronize 
    with your desktop E-Mail application during a HotSync operation. 
    Your organizer, however, stores a backup copy of the Filed folder on 
    your computer hard disk.
    To file e-mail:
    1. Open an e-mail item.
    2. Tap the Menu icon  .
    3. Tap Message, and then tap File.
    4. Tap No to save the e-mail item and move it to the Filed folder, or 
    tap Yes to file the item and keep a copy in the Inbox.
