Convergence polls for new Email message every few minutes. You can also force Convergence to poll for new Email message by clicking Get Mail.

You can configure Convergence to play a sound when you receive new Email message. See How Do I Set Sound Notifications? for more information.

All the Email messages are listed with the following information:

• Subject, Sender's name, date and time of receipt, and Email message size.

• Email messages with the Subject text in bold indicate unread Email message.

• A red flag indicates email that are marked urgent.

The Mail selector panel displays the total number of currently unread Email messages. The unread Email message count gets updated whenever you receive a new Email message.

To view other mail in the Inbox, press the Up/Down arrows to select other mail.

A server error appears if an error occurs when retrieving new Email messages.
