Creating a new mailbox

Overview

Mailboxes are useful to organize and view messages on a certain topic or from a particular person or group of people. Once you create a mailbox you can move messages into it from the IN box (where your new messages appear). The messages in a mail box can be viewed in their own list just like the new messages in your IN box.
