Advanced mail tasks

In addition to sending and receiving email, there are many other tasks that you can perform with Web Mail Cloud email. Web Mail Cloud is a lightweight web client that allows you to work with your mail, contacts, and calendar from anywhere, without requiring an IBM® Domino® back end. Web Mail Cloud is a separate product from SmartCloud Notes® and does not access your SmartCloud Notes mail. For help on SmartCloud Notes, a more robust version of mail, and the browser client SmartCloud Notes web, refer to the SmartCloud Notes product documentation.
