 Toolbar Help Tips:

Go: This pull-down menu offers a number of "View" and "Transfer" options, and you would simply select an option from the menu and click "Go" to execute the request. 

  • Viewing Newsguy Email Boxes - Several options in the "Go" menu allow you to view messages within different areas of your Newsguy email account (In, Out, Save, and Trash box). As an example, if you were looking at messages within your "Trash" box, and wanted to look at the messages in your "In" box, you would select "View In Box" from the menu, and click "Go" to jump to that specific box.

  • Viewing Outside Email Boxes - Direct Read Mail also allows you to check and view messages from up to 3 different POP email accounts that you maintain. As an example, if you have an ISP email account, a work email account, and a Hotmail email account, you could set Direct Read Mail to retrieve messages from all three of those accounts, as well as your Newsguy email account. Simply go to your Direct Read Mail Preferences, locate the settings area titled "Checking Multiple Email Accounts", and click the "Edit" link to specify each of the POP email accounts you'd like to retrieve messages from. Once you've setup your additional email accounts, they will appear as a "View" option within the "Go" menu, and you can modify or delete them from your preferences area at any time.

  • Transfer Options - The "Transfer" options in the "Go" menu offer a quick way to transfer one or more messages from one mailbox to another (In, Out, Save, and Trash). As an example, if there were three messages within your "In" box that you wanted to transfer to your "Save" box, you would simply select those three messages within the "In" box, select "Transfer to Save" from the pull-down menu, and then click "Go" to complete the transfer. This menu also includes an "Empty Trash" option which will permanently delete any messages that appear within your "Trash" box.
