Introduction
Spec-Net Mail
on the Web lets you send and receive your email from any computer
with a Web browser. Whether you're at work, on the road or away from
your computer, just go to Spec-Net and click on email to read and
send your mail.
Logging In
All sessions begin at the Login screen. Before
you can use any of the webmail features, you must connect to your email account
using the
username and password assigned to you by Spec-Net.
Begin by entering your user and password in the appropriate fields. You'll then
need to select the mail server to which you'd like to
connect.
Once you've filled in these three fields, click the "Login" button
to proceed.
The Inbox Listing
The contents of your Inbox folder will be
displayed immediately upon logging in. The Mailbox Listing shows the contents
of each message's header (message status, date sent, sender, subject, and size).
Each column has a heading. Clicking on the heading will cause the listing to
be sorted by that
column.
To view the contents of a message, click on the message's subject. You'll be
taken to the Message screen.
The Message Screen
The Message Screen displays the contents of
the selected message. From here, you can browse message attachments, reply to
the current message, delete the current message, or advance to the next message
in your
current mailbox.
The Compose Window
You can send mail in a variety ways. You might
choose to compose a new message or perhaps to reply to an existing message. Whichever
method you choose, however, will open the standard Compose Window.
The Compose Window allows you to set, among other things, the message recipient's
address (who you're sending mail to), the message subject, and the message contents.
Simply fill out the appropriate fields at the top of the window (only the To:
address is required, but the Subject: is suggested) and type your message in
the large lower field. Once you've completed entering your message, you may choose
to Spell Check your message text. Once you're done composing your new message,
click the "Send" button to send the message to the
recipient.
Conclusion
This has hopefully given you a general understanding
of how the web mail interface works. You'll surely become comfortable with it
after seeing how easy and convenient it is for reading and sending mail, as well
as managing
your Spec-Net mail account.
