Using Multiple and Default Read Windows
You can open more than one Read window at one time. This
lets you read multiple messages at once or read new mail
without disrupting the message you are currently reading.
The first Read window you open is your default Read window.
It is identified by the symbol [D] in the window's title bar.
Additional Read windows are identified by the number in
their title bar; for example, Read 2, Read 3, and so on.
The default Read window is used to display messages unless
you specify another window. For example, clicking on the
Read New Mail button or double clicking on a message in
the main window displays the message in your default Read
window.
New mail cannot be added to the INBOX if you are reading
a message in the INBOX in a Read window other than the
default Read window or if you are replying to a message in
the INBOX.
To read an old message in another Read window, select the
message and choose In New Window from the Read menu.
