Netscape Messenger is full-featured, open standards-based email. Create rich email messages that look like web pages, complete with graphics, images - even Java applets. Find the email address of anyone you want to communicate with, whether inside your company or on the Internet, and add them to your address book with a click. And encrypt your confidential email for the highest levels of privacy for your messages.
Messenger displays your mailbox in one window, the rich text of the selected message in the other.
Send and receive messages with rich text and graphics: -
Support for HTML mail allows you to send email messages that look and act
like web pages.
-
Full integration with Composer's HTML
editing allows you to mail Composer documents.
With Messenger you can send and receive MIME HTML (MHTML) messages, which
actually include graphics, Java applets, and other objects. That means
you won't see the broken graphic icon representing an image or object;
you'll see the full message with rich graphics, text, and hyperlinks. You
can even view your messages with full graphics and links while reading
offline.
Find email addresses easily and quickly, and save them in a personalized
address book: -
Messenger's Personal
Address Book is a full-featured tool for organizing electronic addresses
of all kinds.
-
Support for the LDAP
directory standard allows you to search any open standards-based online
directory.
-
Users can personalize messages with vCard
digital business cards.
The Search Directory menu in Address Book lets you search public email directories without exiting Messenger.
Just follow these steps:
- From the Communicator menu, select Address Book.
- Click the Directory button.
- Choose any of the public Internet directories from the pull-down menu.
- Type the name of the person you are seeking.
- Highlight a name or group of names, and click on the name or group to add it to your address book.
Protect confidential email: -
Support for S/MIME
provides data encryption, which protects messages as they are transmitted
over the Internet, and digital signatures, assuring your recipients that you are the author of the message.
Encryption is similar to putting your message inside an envelope so
others cannot read your mail. Digital signatures authenticate senders by
reading their digital signatures. Within Messenger, recipients can see
who signed the message and view the certificate for additional detail.
S/MIME also uses a secure hashing function to detect message tampering.
