<title>Menu Reference</title>

|
<para>
|
|
<application>Evolution</application>'s menus may not hold the
|
|
secret to happiness, they do hold every ability that
|
|
<application>Evolution</application> has. This section will serve
|
|
as a reference for all those menus, and the capabilites that they
|
|
offer you.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
In addition, the editor tools for messages, appointments, and
|
|
contacts all have menu bars of their own. From left to right, the
|
|
menus available to you when you are reading mail are:
|
|
<guimenu>File</guimenu>, <guimenu>Edit</guimenu>,
|
|
<guimenu>View</guimenu>, <guimenu>Settings</guimenu>,
|
|
<guimenu>Message</guimenu>, <guimenu>Folder</guimenu>and
|
|
<guimenu>Help</guimenu>.
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Menus in <application>Evolution</application> are
|
|
context-sensitive, which means that they vary depending on what
|
|
you're doing. If you're reading your mail, you'll have
|
|
mail-related menus; for your calendar, you'll have
|
|
calendar-related menu items. Some menus, of course, like
|
|
<guimenu>Help</guimenu> and <guimenu>File</guimenu> don't much, if
|
|
at all, because they have more universal functions. But you'd
|
|
never mark an address card as "read," or set the recurrence for an
|
|
email message you've recieved. depending on whether you're looking
|
|
at mail, contacts, or calendar information.

<para>
|
|
Note that the <guimenu>File</guimenu> menu and the
|
|
<guimenu>Help</guimenu> are identical within the
|
|
<application>Evolution</application> main window, regardless
|
|
of what features you are using.
