Folder Selections
Once you start accumulating large numbers of messages in your mailbox, you may find it
useful (or even necessary) to start organizing them into groups. NetMail/3000 provides “folders”
for this purpose. Folders hold messages in your mailbox and organize them into logical groups.
You create whatever folders you like (assign each folder a name) and then “File” messages into
the appropriate folder. Each message can be in exactly one folder, but you can have as many dif-
ferent folders as you wish and can keep as many messages in each folder as you wish (though
keeping messages in folders still uses up mailsystem database space). By default, the “INBOX”
folder is created for you, and all incoming mail is deposited into that folder for you automatically
- it is up to you to create other folders and file messages from the INBOX into other folders as you
like. You can move messages from the current folder (whichever one you are viewing) into any
other folder with the “File” command. You switch the folder you are viewing with the “GOTO”
folder, and create and destroy folders with the “Create” and “Destroy” commands described in the
next few pages.
