How does one connect to sources such as email? Thanks.

[GlennFleishman]

@we2change You enter the IMAP or POP information just as if GoodReader were an email client. It scans the inbox and displays attachments as available downloads. You can then tap to download the attachments and store within GoodReader's storage area.

Hi.

Can you put your PDF's/document's etc. in folders?

[GlennFleishman]

@manchesterunitedvind Not yet, that I'm aware of. But the developer is very responsive to feature requests, so you could ask for that.

The lock button doesnt lock orientation it locks scroll so you can only scroll vertically not horizontally

[GlennFleishman]

@barbro66 Ah! Thanks for that clarification.
