Introduction to Folders
Your pager has a system of folders in which you can save and organize specific messages. The folders are:
• Quickview Folder ( access (see page 28 for more information)
•Personal(
• Phone List (
• Task List (a)—used to create a “to do” checklist for specific messages
• Event List (
•Trash(b)—used to store messages to be deleted
Note: The empty trash function (C) must be used to actually delete the messages from your pager. For more information, see page 43.
Most of these folders require the same procedures to move messages to them from the Status screen andbetween them (except for the Event List, which has additional procedures). The procedures in this section apply either to all folders (as in “Moving Messages to Folders”) or to specific folders (as in “Deleting Messages from the Pager (Emptying the Trash)”).
