UpMessaging
§1 General
Along with the planning tools themselves (scheduling), the planner also includes three tabs entitled Sent box; In box, and To send box, who gives access to the trays Sent messages; Received messages and Messages pending to send of the Zator messaging system (see an introduction to this service in Sending messages).
The ability of send messages is on the init screen (toolbar button 
),
and except the option to forward messages from the tray Messages pending to send, the options available
in these tabs refer exclusively to the maintenance of the respective trays.
Should also remember that the existence of messages in the tray Sent messages,
depends on the state of the corresponding switch in the Initial
settings, because of the fact that the elements stored in this tray are what we have
called local copy of the sent messages.
The tabs Sent messages and Received messages only allow the option of erasing, as neither the copy of the messages sent or received can be modified. For his part, the tray of pending messages, represents those that where unable to reach its destination because being inaccessible at the time. In these cases, the date marks the first attempt, and the menu offers the possibility to try to resend and modify, although in the latter case, only is possible to change the subject and body (is not possible change the initial destination address).
When a message from the pending tray is sent successfully, is removed from this tray, and if they were connected the adequate switch in the initial settings, is creates a copy of it in the Sent messages tray.
§2 Location of the files
When discussing the remaining elements of the Planner (Appointments, Pending, Events, Etc.) we have indicated that the elements in a tab corresponding to the dBase of the work area connected at the time (whose nickname appears in the title bar), and that by default is the dBase of the local area, the file zDB1 located in the directory where is the executable ZatorX.exe. However, in the case of messages from the mail system, the default position is indicated by the parameter Message-box path of the Initial settings. Only when this parameter is empty (not explicitly specifies a direction), the direction of the mailbox coincides with the dBase of the local area [1].
§3 Browsing
The tray's windows appear empty if has not been received/sent any message or there is nothing in the pending tray. On the contrary, appears a line for each message in the corresponding tray showing the contents of its fields. The inspection of its content is the usual in Windows applications. Can be made horizontal/vertical scroll with the corresponding slide bars to inspect hidden elements. The title bars are resizable, so that you can drag them to widen. At the same time, successively clicking with the mouse on the title of any column, lists the content of the selected column in direct/inverse alphabetical order.
The context menu that appears when you click with the right mouse button on the window, includes options for Go home; Go to end; Page forward and Back page. These movements also can be made with the keyboard:
- [Home] Position in the first line.
- [End] Position on the last line
- [Page Up] Backward a page
- [Page Dn] Forward page
Note that the Memo column indicates the number of characters in the cell
(----- if it is
empty). The actual content of this field to the line that has hotbed at the time,
can be found at the bottom window (which indicates <Empty Memo>
if it do not have content). At the same time, the left window of the bottom
status line (purple) contains the entire field Subject, which
is useful if the text is too long for current width of the column.
§4 Maintenance
The maintenance is as usual; by right clicking on the window, you can get a contextual menu. The options that relate to maintenance are three in the best case, in the To send box tray, because the other two, Sent box and In box only allow to delete the corresponding item (sent and received messages can not be modified):
- This item > Modify (only in the To send box tab)
- This item > Delete
- This item > Resend (only in the To send box tab)
These options are also available via the keyboard:
- [Del] Delete the message pointed out by the cursor
- [Alt]+[M] Modify the message pending to send.
- [Alt]+[T] Resend (Transmit) the message indicated by the cursor (only in the To send box tab)
Top.[1] Another way to see this is considered that the local area has an extension (mailbox) that can be physically in a different direction that the file zDB1 of the local directory of the application.
