Find your way around the mailbox
After you log in, XgenPlus opens your Inbox. The top bar has the menu icon, Quick Search, notifications and your account menu. The left pane lists Compose Mail, your folders, smart categories and Total New Mails. Mail, folders, search results and compose open in tabs in the main area. Click the ☰ icon to hide or show folder names.

When to use it
