Notes:

• The larger the contact the more messages have been "Sent To" or "Received By" that contact.
• Moving the mouse over a contact will indicate the flow of the messages from and to the contact.
• The different colours mean:
  • Blue: contact in question (under cursor)
  • Orange: contacts that Blue has sent emails to, plus the link arrows.
  • Green: contacts that Blue has received emails from, plus the link arrows.
• If there has been two-way traffic then you get both colour arrows.
• Zoom in and out by holding down the Ctrl key and rolling the mouse wheel or using the slider.
• Pan by holding down the left-click mouse button.
