Email/Mate was designed to allow email access through your Auto/Mate server.

Email/Mate is laid out in two main sections called frames. The left frame lists the current folders. On the right is where most of the action will take place. At the top of the page is a menu bar. Sign out will safely log you out of the program when you are finished. The Current Folder displays which of the folders listed in the left frame you are currently in. Right after you log in, by default your INBOX will be shown.

One of the great things about Email/Mate is the degree to which it may be customized. Depending on the configuration, you may have several choices of themes, languages, folders, and other preferences. All of these may be changed without affecting any other users on the system.

There are at least five main parts to the Options: Personal, Display, Message Highlighting, Folders and Index Order. More parts may be available depending on your Email/Mate installation.
