Using Folders

Outlook Express comes with the default folders

Inbox	All received messages are deposited here
Outbox	All messages queued for dispatch are stored here
Sent Items	All messages that have been dispatched are stored here
Deleted Items	All messages deleted during the current session are stored here
Drafts	Used to save drafts and templates

To achieve order in the mess, you can create your own folders. For example, you can make a folder called Family, one called Friends , one called CoWorkers and so on. Each of these folders can be subdivided into further folders, and each of those into more subfolders and so on. Plan a system and then set up the folders accordingly. If you have more than one mail account, it might be a good idea to name the highest level folders after your mail accounts and then further subdivide them into categories.

To make a new folder just right-click on the folder that is a level higher up and selectNew Folder. For example, to make top level folders on the same level as the default folders, right click Local Folders and select New Folder. Make sure the right folder is highlighted in the Create Folder window, enter a name for the new folder and then click on OK.
