Quick Filter
The Quick Filter lets you perform a filter on the panel or folder that
is selected. The filter
searches on most fields that are available in the selected panel or
folder, but it does not
search message bodies or attachments.
Messenger Presence
If you have GroupWise Messenger installed, you can now see the presence
information
for users in the Quick Info. For messages that you have received, the
presence status is
located in the From field. For messages you are sending, the presence
status is located in
the TO, CC, and BC Quick Info. You can also see the presence information
in the Quick
Info for an individual in the Address Book.
Home View
The Home View is a quick view of your most important information. The
Home View uses
panels to display the information in sections. By default, the Home
View displays your
calendar for the day, your checklist items, and your unread messages
in a two-column view.
However, the Home View is fully customizable. You can create additional
panels that display
the information you need. In addition, you can select to have only
a one-column view. This
stacks the panels into one column instead of the default two columns.
As well as showing
panels, you can display your folder list and the Quick Viewer.
New Customized Navigation
Bar
The Navigation bar is designed for quick access to the folders you
use the most. By default
the Navigation bar contains the Home, Mailbox, Calendar, Contacts,
and Trash folders.
However, the Navigation bar is customizable, so you can add the folders
you use the most.
Unicode Support
Unicode* support has been added to the subject and message body of
items. Now you can
write or read messages in most languages in GroupWise.
Spell Check as You Type
Use spell checking as you type to check for misspelled words, duplicate
words, and irregular
capitalization in items you are creating. When spell checking finds
a misspelled word as you
type, the word is underlined in red. You can see a list of suggestions,
add the word to your
word list, always skip the word, or disable spell checking as you type
by right-clicking the
red-underlined word.
HTML Signatures
Use Signatures to insert a signature or tag line at the end of items
you send. For example
you can have GroupWise automatically list your name, phone number,
and e-mail address
at the bottom of every item you send. If you have a number of different
accounts, including
POP3, IMAP4, and NNTP newsgroup accounts, you can create a different
signature for
each account.
Global Signatures
In addition to personal signatures, your system administrator can create
a global signature for
everyone to use. The system administrator can require the global signature.
If the system
administrator requires the global signature, it is automatically appended
to all items that are
sent. If the system administrator does not require the global signature,
it is appended to your
signature. If you dont have a signature, the global signature is not
added to sent items if it is
not required.
Inline Quotation for Replies
When you reply to a message, you can select how the reply text should
appear. GroupWise
classic format shows the date before the original message. Include
Header format shows the
header information before the original text. Internet Standard format
adds a greater-than sign
(>) in front of the original message.
Prevent Images
from Displaying for HTML Messages
When an HTML message is received, the images are not shown by default
for security
reasons. This helps prevent viruses and other malicious attacks through
e-mail messages.
To display the images, click the message that states, GroupWise has
prevented Images
from displaying. Click here to display the image. You can set GroupWise
to always show
the warning, never show the warning, or check Frequent Contacts. If
you select to check
Frequent Contacts, it shows the images in messages from people listed
in your Frequent
Contacts address book.
Search Attachments
When you perform a search in GroupWise, the text of attachments is
automatically
included in the search.
Multiple Calendars
You can now create multiple calendars in GroupWise. Each new calendar
that is created
is assigned a color. When the new calendars display in the calendar
view, the appointment
background color matches the color of the calendar that it belongs
to.
Print Calendar in Full Color
When you print the calendar, the individual calendar colors are printed
in addition to the
category color. 202 GroupWise 7 Installation Guide
All Day Events
GroupWise now has support for all day events. All day events are displayed
at the top of
the calendar view. When you create an all day event, by default it
does not mark the time as
busy.
Edit Corporate Distribution
Lists
End users can now edit a corporate distribution list if they have been
granted access. You
edit a corporate distribution list in the same way you edit any distribution
list or group.
Default Compose and Read Views
You can now specify the default font and size for the compose and read
views if you have
text as your default read view. However, if you select HTML as your
default read view, you
cannot set the default font or font size. The default font and size
for reading HTML messages
are determined by the message that is sent.
