Public Inbox portlet
The Public Inbox portlet displays a list of the work items in a specific Public Inbox, similar to the Public Inboxes view from the standard Tasks page. The work item name and a description are displayed for each item in the set of public inboxes. You can click a work item name to open the Task Step page, or you can click the Get Info button to view the properties for the work item. You can customize the number of items displayed and the display style by clicking the Edit button in the portlet toolbar.
