YL Software

Creating a new message

In YL Mail Man, both both HTML and text messages are supported. By default, you edit an HTML message with the built-in YL Mail Edit (Email Editing Software).

A message can be reopened from a saved EML file - use the File / Open message command. You can also load a MHT or EML file created by MS Outlook Express here.

If you want to send a web page, you can load it to the message with File / Load from WWW. Type the site address there and YL Mail Edit will load this page for you.

Opening existing messages

To open an existing message, click the corresponding button on the toolbar (an open briefcase) or select the File / Open message menu item and specify the file you need. By default, you will see files with the *.EML extension. YL Mail Edit uses this file type to save messages. HTML and Text files can be loaded as well.

Another way to open a message is to select an EML file in Windows Explorer. In this case, YL Mail Edit will automatically load this file and you will be able to edit it and send mail.

Loading a message from a website

You can use File / Load from WWW to load a web page into the current editor. Just enter the path to the page and YL Mail Edit will load the page and all images from it (actually, the paths to the images will be saved and when you send mail, the recipient will load them from the site).

Saving a message

You can save messages to be able to edit and use them later. Click the floppy disk icon on the toolbar and enter the filename and location to save the message to. The default extension is .EML.

Creating a new HTML message from templates

Select the File / Templates... to browse existing templates. Select the template you want to use and click OK. The template can be edited and saved in the message editor.

Note: if you want to create a blank message, select the File / New message menu item or click the corresponding button on the toolbar.
