Mailboxes

WorldClient can be set to collect mail from any number of additional POP mailboxes to which you have access. For example, you may have separate email accounts for home and work but wish to collect mail from both at once. The Mailboxes area (on the Mailboxes page in Options) is used for editing and adding those POP mailboxes from which you wish to collect email messages. For each mailbox entry you will specify the following items:

Mailbox Name
This is a descriptive name to be used for referring to the mailbox (e.g. "Home Mail", "My ISP mail", "Work", etc.). This name will be listed on the Mailbox Color Legend at the bottom of the Message Listing (Standard Theme) or in the section of the Navigation bar (Globe Theme).

Full Name
This is the text that you wish to appear in the From: box of your outgoing mail.

Email Address
This is the email address of this Mailbox account. This is the address to which recipients of messages from this address will reply - unless you designate an alternate "Reply To:" in the Compose page's Advanced options.

POP Server
On the Mailboxes page, this is the mail server from which you wish to retrieve your email messages. This will be a domain name or IP address (e.g. mail.company.com, myisp.com, 127.0.0.1, etc.).

POP User
On the Mailboxes page, this is your account name/login ID on the POP server from which you will be retrieving your mail.

POP Pass
On the Mailboxes page, type into this box the password of the account on the POP server from which you will be retrieving your mail.

Port Number
On the Mailboxes page, you can use this control for specifying the port on which WorldClient Pro will retrieve your email. In most cases, you should leave this control on the default setting of 110.

Delete
This drop-down list box is used for controlling when WorldClient Pro will delete the messages from the POP mailbox on the POP server listed above. The Delete control has three options to choose from:

• Leave on Server - When this option is chosen, messages will not be deleted from the server from which they were collected. This feature is useful if you wish to leave mail in this POP mailbox so that it can be collected at a later time with another client.

• When Emptying Trash - This option will cause messages to be left on the server until you delete them from the Trash folder. When you delete a message from your Trash folder, WorldClient will delete the message from the POP mailbox. This feature is also useful for leaving messages on a server so that they can be collected at a later time with another mail client. However, the difference between this feature and the Leave on Server control above is that you have the option to delete messages if you choose to do so.

• When Retrieved - Choose this option if you want messages to be deleted from the POP server at the time that they are retrieved.

Active
On the Mailboxes page in Options,click this control to turn on/off mail checking for this POP mailbox. When you have made mail checking inactive, WorldClient Pro will still retain all of the information for this POP mailbox.

Default
Click this box in the Mailbox entry that you want to be your default Mailbox. The Name and Email Address information for this Mailbox will appear in the "From:" header when you go to the Compose page.

Color
When you have set up WorldClient to collect mail from multiple mailboxes (on the Mailboxes page in Options), the messages will be displayed on the Message Listing in rows with differing background colors. This control is for assigning your desired color to each POP mailbox. You may assign the same color to more than one POP mailbox. Click the option button beside the color of your choice and then click Finished or .
