Features > Console ConsoleThe console provides the primary user interface for all the features in Mailtraq. It also provides a real time display of Mailtraq's activities and enables all stored messages to be viewed. Also, every Mailtraq feature which is configured via property dialogs can be accessed via the console.
Opening and Closing the Console
Mailtraq's console is normally a hidden window but can be displayed by selecting Mailtraq Console from the drop down menu of the Mailtraq icon in the System Tray or simply by double-clicking on that icon. The console may also be displayed by clicking on the console loader shortcut in the Mailtraq folder installed in the Start Menu (or by its shortcut key Ctrl+Alt+M), or by launching the Mailtraq Console applet in Control Panel. The console can be removed from the desktop without affecting Mailtraq's activities in any way by choosing Close Console from the File Menu in the console.
( This view of the Console shows the Service Manager* opened ready to Add a new Service)
Console Menus
In addition to the standard menus in the console, a Commands menu can be created containing custom menu entries. The Commands menu can be configured to contain many of the menu entries which appear on other console menus. The Commands menu is created and edited in the Custom Menu Tab of the Customise the Toolbar dialog, accessed by selecting Customise... from the View menu.
Full details of the menus are available in the program Help.
 Configuration Tips
1). The column headings in the right-pane can be customized to provide more information or to allow you to change the order of the columns by selecting View | Configure Columns, which will open the 'Configure Visible Fields' dialog. The example shown is for the Outgoing Mail (the Outbox).
The items in this dialog can be moved freely by drag and drop, or by clicking on the arrowed buttons, to and from the Available Fields and Fields to Display areas to determine which columns are displayed for the currently selected object in the List View. The order of the column display can also be set by moving selected entries by drag and drop or by clicking on Move Up and Move Down.
*Service Manager: This dialog is opened from Options | Services . The Service Manager dialog, accessed by selecting Services... from the Options menu is used to configure the core services running on Mailtraq.
