The encryption and decryption of e-mail is just as easy. After composing the e-
mail message, go to ‘Security’ ➝ ‘PGP encrypt’ and send the e-mail message.
When you receive encrypted messages, a dialog opens to ask for the password
of your secret key. Enter the passphrase to decrypt the e-mail message.

Folders
It is often convenient to sort e-mail messages into a variety of folders. Your folder
tree is shown in the left frame. If accessing mail over IMAP, the IMAP folders are
also shown in this folder bar. For POP and most other formats, your folders are
stored locally, sorted under ‘Local Folders’.

also shown in this folder bar. For POP and most other formats, your folders are
stored locally, sorted under ‘Local Folders’.
Several folders are included by default. ‘Inbox’ is where new messages fetched
from a server are initially placed. ‘Sent’ is used for saving copies of sent e-mail
messages. ‘Outbox’ is temporary storage for e-mail that has not yet been sent. It
is useful if working offline or if the outgoing mail server is temporarily unreach-
able. ‘Drafts’ is used for saving unfinished e-mail messages. The ‘Trash’ folder
is intended for temporary storage of deleted items. ‘Junk’ is for Evolution’s junk
sorting feature.

New folders can be created under ‘On This Computer’ or as subfolders of ex-
isting folders. Create as complex a folder hierarchy as desired. To create a new
folder, select ‘File’ ➝ ‘New’ ➝ ‘Mail Folder’. In the following dialog, enter a name
for the new folder. Use the mouse to determine the parent folder under which to
place the new folder. Exit the dialog with ‘OK’.

To move a message into a folder, select the message to move. Right-click to open
the context menu. Select ‘Move to Folder’ and, in the dialog that opens, the des-
tination folder. Click ‘OK’ to move the message. The message header in the orig-
inal folder is shown with a line through it, meaning it is marked for deletion in
that folder. The message is stored in the new folder. Messages can be copied in a
similar manner.
