Emails, chatroom messages or activities are listed further to the right and their actual contents can be viewed on the far right part of the interface, in a larger area.

Emails and messages can be marked and processed in various ways. For example, you can add them to a favorites folder, pin them to the sidebar, assign them to one or more persons, merge them and more. You also get a snooze option, which enables you to postpone something for one or more days. Additionally, messages can be snoozed automatically if nobody replies within a certain time frame.
