Using the Mail Sidebar Module

Overview

The Mail Sidebar module allows you to work with your most recently received email, including all new incoming messages, as you browse the web. You can also compose and send email messages from the Mail Sidebar module.

The Mail Sidebar module has two views:

• Collapsed as a mini-module

  

  The Mail mini-module displays the subject and sender of each unread email message in your inbox (or all messages, depending on your settings). Each message appears for a few seconds, and then the next one fades in to replace it. You can click a subject to display the full email message in the BT Yahoo! Mail application or click the Mail mini-module (outside of the subject link) to make Mail the active Sidebar module. As new email arrives, it appears on your Mail Sidebar module.

• Expanded as the active module

  

  When Mail is the active Sidebar module, you can view any of the messages listed by simply clicking the subject.

  

  The full BT Yahoo! Mail opens in the web content area of the Browser window and displays the selected message.

  When a new message arrives, an alert message appears.

  

  You can click the Go to Yahoo! Mail button to display the message in BT Yahoo! Mail, or click the OK button to close the alert message window and add the message to your Sidebar inbox.
