MAIL AND ADDRESS BOOK

Deleting, removing, or tracking messages from the Sent view
The Sent view of your mail database displays all messages you have sent, by date and name of first recipient. In the Sent view, you can either delete a message from all folders and views in your mail database or remove it from the Sent view only. You can also track sent messages to learn what servers they move through.

When you click Delete in the Sent view, a dialog box opens asking whether you want to delete or remove selected messages. This dialog box stops appearing if you select the "Don't ask me again" check box. To see the dialog box again, choose Actions - Tools - Preferences, and under Delete/Remove Preference for Sent View, select "Always Ask."

1. In the navigation pane, open the Sent view.

2. Select one or more messages.

3. Near the top of the window, click the Delete button and do one of the following:

4. (Optional) To always either delete or remove messages without seeing this dialog box, select "Make this choice my preference."

To track a message that has been sent

When you choose this command, the mail tracer appears as a message in your Inbox. The tracking result is posted as a response to the tracer message. You can track a mail message as long as all the servers the message must pass through are Release 5 or later Domino servers. Also, message tracking must be enabled on the servers.

Tip You can see all the tracking messages for one message listed together. To do so, in the navigation pane, click Views and then Mail Threads.

1. Open the Sent view and select the message.

2. From the menu, choose Actions - Tools - Send Tracking Request.

3. Select the recipient(s) to whom you sent the messages you want to track.

4. Select "Delivery status only" or "Trace entire path" and click OK twice.
