Enable Touch Interface 
Rainmail Webmail is designed to be like a desktop application by default. For example, user can
  1. Quickly select emails using Ctrl and Shift keys
  2. Use Right Click context menu to act on email(s)
  3. Drag and drop emails to folders to copy
While this is very efficient, some of the keys used (Ctrl key) and muse events (Right click) are not present in devices with Touch interface like IPad, Android tablets, IPhone etc.
In that case, user can Enable Touch Interface. Once enabled, check boxes (like below) appear for selection of emails.

To substitute Right Click, a new More... button appears on the Email bar as follows:

After selecting emails using the Check box, user can click on More... button (indicated by red Oval) and the same menu that appears in the Right click context menu is displayed.

Rainmail Server, when exposed to Internet, allows users to view attachment online rather than downloading them. 38 different types of attachments can be viewed online. This option has to be enabled by Rainmail Administrator.
Once enabled, users can either download their attachments or view it online. The default is to download the attachments.
If user wants to view attachments online by default, this option should be checked. Once this is set, whenever user clicks on an Email attachment, it will be viewed online.
