In a previous article, we discussed how to log into your Redman Webmail account. Review how to do that here

The mail that is in plain text and not Bold is mail you have already read. You can delete the read messages by selecting the message
Then selecting the “Move to Trash” button. It looks like a red circle with a red line going through it
This moves that message to you Trash
To move multiple messages to your Trash, use the “Select” boxes at the bottom of your email window.
You have the option to select:

Emptying Your Trash
