# Visão geral

Geary is an email application built around conversations, for the GNOME 3 desktop. It allows you to read, find and send email with a straightforward, modern interface.

Conversations allow you to read a complete discussion without having to find and click from message to message.

The main Geary window is divided into several areas: The folder list, the conversation list, and the conversation viewer.

# Lista de pastas

The folder list displays all folders and labels for your email accounts. Geary uses the term label for any folder that you have created to organize your email messages.

Select a folder or label to display the conversations it contains in the conversation list.

# Lista de conversa

A lista de conversa exibe uma lista de conversas na pasta selecionada. Conversas mais novas aparecem no topo.

Each sender’s name appears bold if there are unread messages from that sender. If a conversation has more than one message, Geary displays a count of messages in the conversation.

Geary does not automatically download all messages in all of your mail folders. When you first visit your Inbox or any other folder, Geary downloads the most recent messages in that folder. To see more messages, simply scroll down the conversation list and Geary will fetch more messages automatically.

Alguns comandos no Geary podem agir em um grupo de conversas. Para selecionar múltiplas conversas, seguro a tecla Ctrl e clique em cada conversa na lista de conversa. Alternativamente, clique na primeira conversa em um intervalo e, então, segure Shift e clique na última conversa.

# Conversation viewer

The conversation viewer displays all email messages in the selected conversation, with the oldest message at the top.

When you view a conversation, Geary collapses messages that you’ve already read. Click collapsed messages to expand them. Click an expanded message’s header to collapse it.

Click on any of the sender’s or receiver’s names or email address for a message to open the contact menu, which displays additional information and options for the email address. You can to start a new conversation, copy the email address to the clipboard, and search for related conversations. If the email address is present in your desktop address book, it will show the contact’s photo, preferred name, and whether they are a favourite contact. You can also open the contact in the address book. If the email address is not already present, you can choose to add them to the address book, and update the remote image loading preference for that address.

Click the star button present on each message to mark or un-mark a message as being starred. Staring a message will mark the whole conversation as starred, and Geary will display the first starred message in a conversation when returning to it.

Click the menu button present on each message to open the message menu, which allows you to reply and forward to a specific message, update which messages have been marked as read or unread, print a message, and so on.

Any attachments in a message appear at the bottom of the message. Double click an attachment to open it, or use the Open and Save buttons to open and save selected attachments.
