Common Folders in Mailbox
Some of the common folders of mailbox are:
• Inbox: It contains the list of mails received in a mailbox. The unread mails are in bold. Most recent mails are
arranged on the top of the list. It provides us with different options to rearrange the mails in different order.
• Sent: It contains the list of the mails sent. The most recently sent mails will be arranged on the top of the list.
• Draft: It contains the list of the mails created but not sent. Sometimes, we write an incomplete mail and wish to send
it later, then, we can save it as a draft. Later, when we send it, then, it automatically gets removed from the draft.
• Spam: Spam refers to junk, unwanted, unsolicited mail sent to a large group of people for the purpose of
advertising their commercial, non-commercial or prohibited products. It is a way of marketing through the
Internet where millions of users are getting the same mail. A person who creates spam is called a spammer.
Email service automatically keeps spam mails in a spam folder of the mailbox.
• Trash: An email deleted by the user will be stored in the trash folder for a specified time. Also, a user has a
choice of recovering it back in case needed.
