WebClient Tablet Interface

WebClient Tablet interface is optimized for touchscreens and the default choice for tablet browsers such as Safari on iPad, Chrome on Android tablets, or Silk on Kindle Fire. When you login from these devices, you will be automatically redirected to Tablet Interface.

Tablet interface doesn't depend on JavaScript and is therefore compatible with old or mobile browser versions that cannot handle Full WebClient. All operations require only the left mouse button and clicking standard web elements like checkboxes, buttons and pull-down menus. There are no context menus or window pop-ups.

Tap



The icon toolbar gives you finger-friendly access to all the essential mail and groupware functions- divided into scopes that correspond to the colored icons in the upper menu.

To receive new messages, click the envelope icon at the top of the screen.



To start composing a new message, create new contact or distribution list, new event or meeting invitation, new task, new note or upload a new file, click the corresponding icon in the toolbar and click the prominent New button.

For today's messages, only the time is shown. For older emails, only the date is shown. If you want to see both the information, hover the mouse over it- the date and time is displayed. To see full headers, click the Details button.

Rotate



Horizontal View shows all your favorite folders in a list on the left side. The current folder is in bold with a dot. To add more folders to the list, use Folder Management option. Vertical View collapses the folder list into a drop-down selection to the right. Tap the button with the name of the current folder to access other folder options.



The Folder Management option allows you to access or create a shortcut to a folder that is not listed yet, and have it quickly accessible. It also allows to add, rename, remove folders or make a folder default.

Swipe



Natural direction swiping is supported in all paging views (list of emails, contacts, all calendar views and so on) and allows you to advance and go back in the lists just like flipping through pages in a book:

Next page: from right to left
Previous page: from left to right (as on the picture above)



As an alternative to swiping with your finger, you can use paging controls at right (repeated at the top and bottom for easier access), which also show the current position and total number of pages.



You can swipe between messages, contacts, notes and so on. As an alternative there are arrows to go to the next message or the previous one after opening a message.

Fast Reply



When you don't need special formatting or set delivery options, the Fast Reply gives you exactly that- a text area to reply to the original sender of the message you are currently viewing.

Select



This only applies to items on the current page
Or use the individual checkboxes next to each item in the list to make your selection and then perform actions with them.

To select all messages in the folder, you may need to increase the number of listed items in Settings - General.

Manage



After having selected one or more items (the checkbox is ticked), you can carry an action on them using the actions buttons (e.g. Delete, then you will be asked to confirm the deletion).



You can select other infrequent actions from the Action: pulldown menu (e.g. Mark As Unread, Blacklist).

Search



Type a phrase to search for and search in all aspects of the data currently displayed (in email subjects/senders/recipients, in contact names/addresses etc.) or use keywords to limit the search to a specific criteria (for example, subject:office). The list of available keywords is at the end of this help.

To cancel the search, tap any toolbar icon or folder, or delete everything in the search toolbar and click Search.

Fight Spam



Use the Quarantine option in folder list to access your whitelist and blacklist. Here you can see email addresses that are always allowed or always rejected. You can delete the addresses or move them from blacklist to whitelist and vice versa.

To add spam or unsolicited commercial message sender to a blacklist:
To make sure you can access your Spam folder from Copy/Move menu, use the Folder Management option and Link the Spam folder to pin in into your favorite folders list.

Manage Folders



Link folder means to create a link to this folder in the favorite folder list. A link allows you to have your most important folders easier accessible from folder list and in Copy/Move options. You can also name the link with a descriptive name– it doesn't need to correspond with the actual folder name. The custom name will then appear in parenthesis in Folder Management tree.



Open folder by clicking the folder name is useful to access a folder that is not linked in the left menu, but you are not accessing the folder too often. The folder will open like any linked one.



Add folder creates a new folder. You need to specify the folder type- whether you will want to store mail, contacts or other types of items in the new folder.



Rename folder will rename the folder. If there is a link to that folder in left menu, the link will not be affected.



Make default folder will change to where messages are received, sent or saved. Default folders are always accessible from the favorite folders list and cannot be renamed or deleted.



Remove folder will permanently delete all contents of the folder (when you click "Empty") or permanently delete all contents of the folder and the folder itself (when you click "Delete").

Customize



Settings button (between the Help and the Logout icons in the top right corner) allow you to customize the Tablet interface. Various settings are organized into categories that appear as folders (on left side in tall view or on the right dropdown in wide view).



Cancel



Use the browser Back button to return where you were or cancel editing a message, contact, calendar. Any edits you did will be lost. Or just click any toolbar icon.

Switch



Using the links to Advanced Interface, Mobile Interface, you can quickly switch between interfaces, without needing to give your login name and password again. Advanced interface may not work if you are using an older or mobile browser.

Smart Attach



On Android tablets and in desktop browsers you can upload attachments to messages. Ticking the checkbox "Use SmartAttach" attachments will be stored on the server (and in your Files) and delivered via download links embedded in the email. This makes delivery to mobile users faster and more efficient.

Search Keywords



Not all keywords apply for all scopes, e.g. subject: applies only to email, while in calendar you need to use the title: keyword. Multiple keywords are by default linked with AND operator (no need to specify it) and all criteria must be met, or you can use OR and NOT logical operators so that the following criteria can be made optional or to find items not meeting the criteria.

from: Used to specify the sender (from:Amy)
