Notes Overview

SmarterMail's notes feature provides users with the electronic equivalent of paper sticky notes. Use notes to jot down questions, ideas, reminders or anything else you would write on note paper. This feature is especially convenient when used to save bits of information you may need later, such as directions or text you want to reuse in other items or documents.

To access your notes, click the notes icon. By default, the notes in My Notes will load. Note: To view different notes (such as shared or mapped resources), click the Notes menu at the top of the navigation pane and select the desired list.

For help understanding the different areas of the notes section, see the notes diagram.

For help creating a new note, see Creating New Notes.
