Managing Mailboxes
A mailbox is like a folder. Mailboxes are often used to organize and store mail. Web Messaging automatically creates a mailbox named "Main." (Web Messaging also creates a mailbox named "Sent" if you set "Save copy of outgoing mail in Sent folder" to Yes. Likewise, it creates a mailbox named "Deleted" if you set your "Deleted messages" preference to Move to Deleted folder.
You can create additional mailboxes (or folders) as needed. For example, if you are working on a project about exotic parrots, you can create a mailbox named "Parrots" and place in that mailbox all the mail you send or receive that is related to this project.

You can also create "sub-mailboxes," or "sub-folders," within a particular mailbox. For example, a mailbox named "Parrots" can have a sub-mailbox named "Tricks" and another one named "Sounds."

You can create, rename, and delete your mailboxes.
1. On the Main Menu page, click Manage mailboxes under Options, Personal.
2. On the Manage Mailboxes page, click the Help button for more information.
