Customizing your mailbox initial view

In your Preferences Mail page, Default Mail Search specifies the initial view when you log into your mailbox. The default search is your Inbox folder. Therefore, when you sign in, the results of your Inbox display.

You can change this to have another folder, tag, or a saved search displayed when you first open the web client.

  1. Go to the Preferences > Mail page.
  2. In the Displaying Messages > Default Mail Search text box specify which messages are displayed when you open your mailbox. Enter the search keyword, followed by a : and folder, tag, or a saved search name.
  3. Click Save.

The table below lists some examples to enter in the text box.
is:unread To display only unread messages
tag:< tagname > To display email messages that are tagged with specific tags. For example, to display only messages marked with the ToDo tag, type tag:ToDo
in:< foldername > To display messages that are sent to a specific folder via an email filter

Note: Use quotes if the folder or tag is more than one word. For example in:”Unread Email”
