Composing Email Messages
You can compose and send email messages to other users, provided those users have email addresses. You have the option of composing your email message using plain text, meaning you cannot format the text, or, if you have Internet Explorer 5.5 or later, you can compose it in the Rich Text Editor so that you can format the text. The default option is to compose messages using the Rich Text Editor.
Some of the fields and options on the Compose window are optional. To view procedures for completing specific tasks while composing an email message, select the topic from the Composing Email Messages book in the Contents tab of the help system.
