Utilizing the Top Options
At the top of the Conversations list, three options are available to you: - **Mark all as Read**: This button marks all your messages as read, including notification messages. - **Messages and Meetings Filter**: This filter allows you to sort conversations by name, unread messages, meetings, or muted chats. - **New Conversation Editor**: This feature enables you to start a new conversation easily.
Customizing Conversation Options
Additionally, you can customize options for a specific person. This includes: - Marking their conversation as unread. - Disabling notifications when you receive a message from this person. - Adding or removing a shared application. - Deleting the conversation. Most of these options can be found in the menu at the top right of the conversation.
