Java Desktop System Email and Calendar User Guide

Using Mail Folders

You can store your messages in folders. By default, Email and Calendar provides the following folders for your messages:

Folder	Description
Drafts	The default folder for draft messages. When you compose a message, then choose File -> Save Draft, the message is saved in this folder. When you complete and send the message, the message is deleted from this folder.
Inbox	The default location of your incoming messages.
Outbox	Contains messages that you sent, but which `Email and Calendar` has not sent yet because you have not connected to the mail server.
Sent	The default folder for messages that you send.
Trash	Contains messages that you deleted.

To organize your messages, you can create folders, and move or copy messages from your Inbox folder to the other folders.
