The display consists of the navigation side-bar, the file and folder list and the Group Properties side-bar. The Group Properties area has four selectable displays:

  • Messages

  • File

The default display is to show the most recent messages (if any) that have been sent by members of the group. The Folder and File panels become active when a file or folder is selected from the central file list.
