At the bottom of the main GroupWise client window, a Mailbox Size status indicates how much disk space the user is using. As users approach the limit, messages warn them that their disk space is running out. When the limit is met, users cannot send messages until they delete or archive items. The current limit of 1000 MB was arbitrarily set until a final determination on mailbox limits is made. Messages in shared folders are only counted as disk space for the owner of the shared folder.
A new menu item called Delete and Empty has been added to the Edit menu. This option deletes and purges selected items without sending them to the Trash, which allows users to quickly clean up their disk space.
Users can now perform the following:
·
Print calendars to a file in an HTML table format
·
Print calendars from the Archive
·
Preview and print colored RTF text in calendars
·
Use Print Preview to show different form and paper
sizes
·
Print calendars with Show Appointment As
information (shading that shows availability)
·
Change the order in the Multi-User Setup checklist
·
Turn shading on and off in the print forms that
support shading
· Turn separator lines on and off between data items
Users can find detailed information about other users without needing to look them up in the Address Book. This is called Quick Info. Position the mouse pointer over any name in the To, CC, BC, or From boxes of a message and all the information for that person displays. You can turn Quick Info on or off.
Users can arrange their address book columns differently from the way the columns are arranged by the owner of the shared address book.
Company Name displays in both the Name and Organization fields. Company Phone Number displays in the Office Phone Number field.
·
The last query results list is maintained between
sessions and between switching to different address books.
·
Users can stop a query before it has finished.
· LDAP version 3 and SSL are supported.
From the Address Book, you can print address labels, lists of users, and selected fields from individual users' personal information.
A Begins With filter has been added.
Previous/Next buttons have been added in the Address Book information dialog box.
The following enhancements have been made:
·
Notify can be automatically started when GroupWise
starts. Conversely, when the GroupWise
client software is closed, the Notify application is closed as well. This is configured through the client
interface under Tools, Options, Environment, and General. By default Notify will not be enabled.
·
Alarms can be sent to a pager if it is capable of
receiving Internet pages.
·
Users can select the amount of snooze time when an
alarm goes off.
·
A Close All button is available when a user has
several notifications.
·
When users create a vacation rule to reply to
incoming items, Reply to All is disabled to avoid mass messages being sent when
the rule is activated.
· Reply rules can now handle different Accept levels.
You can now forward an item without embedding it as an attachment. You can also select several items and forward them all at once.
Menus have been added to these buttons with additional options.
Users have the option to launch a new browser window instead of having the page display in a browser window that is already open.
Users can sort the Item List by clicking a column heading. To reverse the sort order, click the column heading a second time.
A count of unread items displays in square brackets to the right of every folder (except shared folders) containing unread items.
A count of all items (read and unread) in the Trash displays in square brackets to the right of the Trash.
Users can now forward an item without embedding it as an attachment. They can also select several items and forward them all at once.
Users can undo the last text action in the Subject or Message field of messages they are composing.
Users can set up newsgroup accounts by selecting Account Options on the Accounts menu. An NNTP folder is added to the folder list for each account.
With GroupWise 6.01, Windows will recognize the GroupWise client as a valid newsgroup reader and allow it to be registered as the default reader in Internet Explorer.
Users can access off-campus POP3/IMAP4 accounts (such as Yahoo, Juno, etc) from within GroupWise, provided the Internet Service Provider allows access from the outside their private network via Internet.
Users can specify a different signature for each account they use. For example, a user could have one signature for a newsgroup account and a different signature for a POP3 or IMAP4 account.
