Snap Mail’s talk feature allows you to tele-conference with other users in real time.  To bring up the SnapTalk window, click on the “Talk” button.

The SnapTalk window replaces the Snap Mail main window.  This allows you to use SnapTalk while you are using other applications.

• Talking to Others

You can choose the users you would like to talk with by selecting them from the user list in the talk window or by choosing a group from the pop-up menu.  Any name followed by a diamond is not available for talking because either their computer is off or they have turned off their AppleTalk connection.

Type the text of your message into the OutBox and then click on the “Send” button or press Cmd-Enter or Cmd-Return.   Your message will appear on the talk screen of all the users you have selected.  Users who do not have their talk screens up will receive an alert telling them that they are being called.

You can use shift-click to add or remove users from your talk circle.  Only users selected in the user list at the time of sending will see your message and only they will know who else was sent your message.

• Responding to a SnapTalk Request

When someone sends you a talk message, an alert box will appear and the phone sound will be played.  To respond to the talk request, simply open Snap Mail and click on the “Talk” button.  You will see the message in the InBox and the sender’s name will already be selected in the user list so that you can immediately start typing your reply.

• Exiting SnapTalk

Clicking on the “Done” button will return you to the Snap Mail main window.  You can choose “Quit” from the Snap menu if you want to exit Snap Mail directly from SnapTalk.
