How Do I Reply To an Email Message?

You can respond to a mail by tapping Reply  in the toolbar.

To reply to a message:

1. Tap Reply. To reply to the sender and all the recipients, tap the downward arrow provided.

   A drop-down list of options are displayed with the following options:

   • Reply: Select this option to reply to the sender.

   • Reply All: Select this option to reply to the sender as well as other recipients of the mail.

   The mail compose screen is displayed with the names of the recipients included in the To and Cc fields as appropriate. The subject of the original message is prefixed with Re:, and the original message appears inline.

2. If you have configured Convergence for multiple sender identities, select the identity you want to use for this message by selecting an option from the From drop-down list. If you have not configured multiple sender identities, the From field does not appear. The default identity is used. For more information, see Sender Identities.

3. (Optional) Type the email addresses of additional people who should receive your message in the To field. Use a comma to separate multiple addresses.

   Alternatively, tap the Address Book icon next to the To field to select an email address. To send a copy to a recipient, type the email address in the Cc field or tap the Address Book icon next to the Cc field to select email address.
