Reopen the critera dialog box with the values pre-set, in order to refine or change them. When accepting this dialog, messages matching the new criteria are fetched and shown in a new page.

Open a modal dialog box asking for a query name and showing the SQL query associated with the current page.

Once saved, the query's name will appear in the "User queries" treeview for later execution.

Selection/Header Analysis
Open a non-modal dialog box called a headers groupview. The headers groupview can be used to discover header entries that are identical in a set of messages.

Otherwise, all the messages that are part of the current list are taken into account.

Message

Message/New Message
Open a new window to compose a new message.

Message/Reply All
The same than "Reply to Sender" except that if the original message had a Cc field, the recipients of this field are also copied into the new outgoing message, thus addressing all the email addresses that received the original message. This command is also bound to a double-mouseclick on the message entry in the list.

Display/Tags
Show or hide the "Message Tags" panel.

Display/Threaded
Show conversations or so-called "threads" in a tree-like representation within lists of messages, as opposed to a flat representation.

Display/Hide quoted text
Toggle on or off a a mode in which long quoted strings are reduced to their first few lines and also colored in light green.

Display/Fast browse
Toggle on or off a mode where the body and attachments of messages won't be fetched from the database unless the user clicks in the body panel (an invite to do is written in this panel while in fast browse mode). This can be used to speed up user interaction when wading through big lists of messages and/or when working remotely with a slow network link to the database.

Display/Fonts
Has submenus for each of the panels on screen whose font can be changed individually, plus an "All" choice to change the font globally for the application.

Display/Headers/None-Most-All
By default, only the most relevant headers are shown above the body of messages. Choosing "None" in this menu hides all the headers, "Most" comes back to the default (from, to, cc, date, subject are displayed), and "All" will show them all.

Display/Store settings
This stores (in the database) all the settings related to the display into the current configuration. It also includes the relative sizes of the panels, the size of the current main window, and the order of the columns in the header of the list of messages (Subject, Status, From, Priority, Date).
