WebMail Mini is a simplified version of WebMail. It is designed especially for browsers where JavaScript, CSS and similar technologies are not supported. For this reason, WebMail Mini is useful especially for:
slow internet connection,
older browsers where JavaScript is not supported,
text mode based browsers, such as Lynx or Links,
mobile PDA and Smartphone devices (see chapter 3 WebMail on mobile devices).
For reasons as slow speed or missing support for JavaScript, WebMail Mini is suitable rather for basic usage of mail and contacts.
As in the full version of WebMail, there are several user settings in WebMail Mini. User can customize WebMail Mini according to their needs. For detailed description of user settings, see chapter 2.5 User settings.
Login to WebMail Mini is similar to login to the standard version (see chapter 1.2 Authentication to WebMail). If user connects for example via a mobile device or by an older browser, WebMail is switched the Mini mode automatically. If a modern browser is used, user can select a WebMail version to connect to (see figure 2.1 Users logged in).
The main page that displayed after a successful login to WebMail Mini is divided into three sections. The first part contains a tree view of folders (which can be hidden - see chapter 2.1 User folders) and the second part lists the content of the folder currently selected (based on the folder type - Mail or Contacts). The third section is the toolbar (its appearance depends on the type of folder currently selected).
