<title>Menu Reference</title>
<para>
This section will serve as a reference for every capability that
<application>Evolution</application> has. When menu items are
repeated in <application>Evolution</application>, they're repeated
here too.
</para>
<para>
From left to right, the menus available to you when you are
reading mail are: <guimenu>File</guimenu>,
<guimenu>Edit</guimenu>, <guimenu>View</guimenu>,
<guimenu>Tools</guimenu>, <guimenu>Actions</guimenu>, and
<guimenu>Help</guimenu>. The last of these doesn't change, but
the rest of them have contents that will change depending on
whether you're looking at mail, contacts, or calendar information.
In addition, the editor tools for messages, appointments, and
contacts all have menu bars.
</para>
<sect1 id="menuref-universal">
<title>Menus that are the same everywhere</title>
<para>
The <guimenu>File</guimenu> and <guimenu>Help</guimenu> menus in
the main <application>Evolution</application> window do not
change, because they refer to universal items. Other menus have
contents that change depending on context.
