Working with Folders

Your Exchange mailbox contains folders with specific functions for handling your e-mail messages. These foldrs include Deleted Items, Drafts, Inbox, Outbox, and Sent Items.

You can create additional folders to organize messages into different categories, like "Urgent" or "Personal," or you can organize messages by a particular project. Outlook Web Access allows you to delete folders, and to move and copy existing folders to suit your needs.

To display the contents of a folder, click the folder. All the items in that folder will be listed in the main Outlook Web Access display area.
