Getting Started with NetMail Lite
After you click the NetMail Lite link from the Sun Java System Portal Server Desktop, you can read, compose, or reply to messages through the NetMail Lite main window.
For more information, see:
Viewing Message Headers
The main window displays your message headers. Each message header includes the message header number, the status of the message, the sender's name, the size, the date/time the message was sent, and the subject (as a clickable link). To view the other message headers, you can use the navigation links at the top of the window.
Reading Messages
To read a message, click the message subject. The message appears in the same window.
You can view the previous or next message from the current folder by clicking the Previous or Next links located at the top of the window.
Viewing an Attachment
To view an attachment, click the attachment link. Attached messages appear in the same window, while other files (for example, graphics) appear in a separate browser window.
If your browser does not recognize the type of the attachment, it prompts you to save the attachment to a file, so that you can view it with a different program.
To close the attachment, close the browser window in which the attachment is displayed. This returns you to the message window.
Deleting a Message
To Delete a Message
Select the "Select all displayed messages" checkbox and click Delete, to delete all the messages that are currently displayed.
The message status is marked as Dele. Click Clean Folder to remove the message from the list permanently.
Recovering a Deleted Message
The Delete button on the message window can be used to toggle between Delete and Undelete.
To Undelete a Message
The message is no longer marked as Dele.
Destroying Deleted Messages
When you delete a message, the message status is changed to Dele, but the message is not removed from the list in the current folder. To completely destroy deleted messages in the current folder, click the Clean Folder button located at the bottom of the view folder page. Once the folder mailbox is cleaned, your deleted messages can no longer be recovered.
You can configure NetMail Lite to automatically destroy deleted messages when you log out.

Retrieving New Mail
New mail is loaded automatically every time you browse to a new page within the mail window.
You can also click the Check New Mail link in the menu at the left side of the window to retrieve new messages.
Printing a Message
This option works only if a printer is configured for the computer on which you are checking your messages.
