CHAPTER 15 Sending and Receiving Email Messages

Tip

If you perform a soft reset or synchronize during send retry, the retry cancels. You must manually send any messages in the Outbox.

Modifying messages in the Outbox

A message in the Outbox waiting for the next automatic send retry can be edited, moved, or deleted. However, if you edit the message, you must manually send the message. If the manual send fails, you can choose to store the message in the Outbox to wait for the next automatic send retry.

During automatic send retry, any message that the VersaMail application is trying to send is in a locked state. You cannot edit, move, or delete these messages. If you try to modify a message in the locked state, an error message appears.

If a send retry fails after the third try, the message is stored in the Outbox in the error state. You can send the message again manually, or edit, move, or delete the message. However, if you edit the message, you will need to manually send the message. If the manual send fails, you can choose to store the message in the Outbox to wait for the next automatic send retry.

Outbox icons in the VersaMail applications

The icons to the left of a message in the Outbox show the message’s status.
