The Briefcase feature lets you save files in your mailbox, allowing you to access these files whenever you log in to your account from any computer.
You can upload documents, spreadsheets, presentations, images, pdf files from your computer or your computer network and you can save attachments sent with your email messages to a Briefcase folder. You can create different briefcase folders to organize the files and you can share the briefcase folder with others.
Files in Briefcase are copies of the original file. Changes you make to files in your briefcase do not change the original file.
Click the Briefcase tab.
Click New Briefcase
on the toolbar.
The Create New Briefcase dialog displays. Type a name for the new briefcase folder
This name must be unique within the hierarchy of your mailbox folders. Briefcase folders cannot have the same name as any top-level folder in your ETC mail, calendar, or address book. For example, if you have a calendar named Holidays, you cannot name a top-level briefcase Holidays. Holidays could be a name of a briefcase within another briefcase.
Select the folder hierarchy. You can create a new top-level briefcase, or you can place it under an existing briefcase.
Click OK. The new briefcase displays in the Overview pane.
Uploading a file transfers a file from your personal computer to your email account. This makes the file available any time you log in to your account.
