Main window
This is the window in which you do your mail reading and handling. It
consists of two main areas, the list of messages and the contents of the
current message. It also contains menus, buttons and miscelaneous
indicators.
Compose window
This is where you write your letters. The builtin editor has functions like
automatic line-wrapping and spell checking. You can also use an external
editor of your choice to edit messages. You can also add (and remove)
attachments to the messages.
You can also always suspend composition of a message and move it to the hold. Then you can resume composition at a later date. You can of course have multiple messages in the hold.

This is the window where you manage your folders. You can drag folders
around add submenus etc, create new folders and import existing
ones. The structure here will be used in the different menus where you
can select folders.
