28 | SquirrelMail is laid out in two main sections called frames. The |
29 | left frame lists the currently subscribed folders. More information |
30 | about the left frame may be found under the "Folders" section of this |
31 | help documentation. |

34 | On the right is where most of the action will take place. At the |
35 | top of the page is a menu bar. Sign out will safely log you out of |
36 | the program when you are finished. The Current Folder displays which |
37 | of the folders listed in the left frame you are currently in. |
38 | Right after you log in, by default your INBOX will be shown. |

42 | <ul> |
