  o  There are two separate processes. The first gives instructions for a
     LAN administrator to setup a completely new LAN mail system for
     users to access. The second gives the steps following this for
     individual users to sign themselves into the system from their local
     machines. An overview of each process now follows.

  o  LAN administrator:
     i   -  creates sub-directory on LAN for mail system. Gives all users
            full read/write/create/delete access.
     ii  -  LAN administrator creates LAN sub-directory for See Mail program.
            Gives read only access for users.
     iii -  runs See Mail program, sets mail system default to name of mail
            sub-directory. Changes screen defaults. Saves configuration files.
     iv  -  Copies See Mail configuration files to LAN program sub-directory,
            along with See Mail program, help, and screens.
     v   -  Selects mailbox configuration, See Mail automatically creates
            the new mailbox. Administrator creates Supervisor group with
            highest access rights. Administrator joins the supervisor group
            as the master user. Further groups for users can then be setup.
     vi  -  LAN administrator creates MAIL batch file for other users to
            access mail system.

Sharing LAN data banks:
ßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßßß
  Data banks can be shared between LAN users. These can contain anything from
  lists of client addresses to product and stock data. Users can also have
  their own private data banks at the same time.

  o  LAN administrator:
     i   -  creates sub-directory on LAN for data banks. Gives all users
            full read/write/update access.
     ii  -  creates data bank on local drive using create data bank menu
            option. Copies new data bank to LAN drive sub-directory.
     iii -  Designs screen for data bank using the SCRDEF program, and copies
            new screen to the See Mail PROGRAM sub-directory. Screen should
            have same name as data bank, (i.e. address.scr and address.rlx).

  o  LAN user:
     i   -  Use the Setup directories options to specify location of shared
            data banks. Save configuration.
     ii  -  Browse shared data bank to verify access is available.

  o  See Mail uses FOLDERS to manage your mail. These include OUTGOING,
     INCOMING, SENT, UNSENT and DRAFTS.

  o  To send mail you should first create a mail item and then save it in
     your OUTGOING folder. Then you can select the open/post Internal mail
     option from the mailBox menu to actual send the mail out.

  o  You then use the Post option to send the mail item(s) to the LAN mailbox.
     If there is a problem with your outgoing mail (such as bad address) it
     will be returned to you in the UNSENT folder.

  o  You may place mail in your DRAFTS folder to review it, or finish it at
     a later time. Once it is complete you just move the file to the OUTGOING
     folder using the file utilities. Then use the mailBox open/post Internal
     mail option as before.

  o  To receive mail, use the mailBox open/post Internal mail, and then
     select receive. You will see a list of mail items, press enter against
     each item you want to receive, and then press <F10> to action the
     receive. The mail items you marked will be read to your INCOMING folder.
