{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 panel allows you to customize various aspects of EasyMail to your liking. There are two major classes of preferences you can set: }
{\f0\i\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 default }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 text fields and behavior }
{\f0\i\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 options}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 .\
Some of the defaults and options are text fields, others are switches. To edit a text field you mouse inside the text field, make any changes desired, and then you must hit the }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Return}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 key in order for the change to take effect. Mousing a switch will immediately toggle its state. Mousing the }
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Save Preferences}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 button will write the new set of preferences to the dock so they will be remembered the next time you run EasyMail.\
The }
{\f0\i\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Defaults }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 are as follows:\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . Domain Name }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the domain-form host name that will\
appear in the }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From:}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 field of your outgoing mail. This should refer to the host name at which you wish to receive mail. It is also used as the name of an SMTP server to deposit your outgoing mail with for eventual distribution to the recipients of your message. This field defaults to the name of this NeXT, but may be changed to any other name e.g., the name of an organizational mail server.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . User Name }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the user name to be used by default for login and in the }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From:}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 field of outgoing mail. By definition, this field is case-independent so you may have upper-case characters in this field to suit individual esthetic tastes (e.g. to capitalize a proper name or initials). This field defaults to your login user name on this NeXT.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
. Personal Name }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the personal name to be used in the }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From: f}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 ield of outgoing mail. This field defaults to your personal name as it appears in your account record in NetInfo and /etc/passwd.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
. Repository }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the domain-form host name of the primary mail repository (IMAP server) where your mail is stored. This is the default host name in the Mailbox Selection panel. EasyMail will attempt to connect to this server by default at startup. This field defaults to the name of this NeXT, but may be changed to any other name e.g., the name of an organizational mail server.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . MTP Server }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the domain-form host name of the primary mail transport server (SMTP server) which will take responsibility for delivering your outgoing mail. This field defaults to the name of this NeXT, but may be changed to any other name e.g., the name of an organizational mail server.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . Default cc}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is the default carbon-copy (cc) list to be used on all your outgoing mail. This field defaults to empty.\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . Outbox}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 is a mailbox file into which a copy of all your outgoing mail will be saved. This field defaults to empty (no outbox).\
The }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From:}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 field of an outgoing message is written in RFC-822 "phrase route-addr" form. That is, with the following settings:\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Domain Name}
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 CAC.Washington.EDU}
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
User Name }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 MRC}
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
Personal Name}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Mark Crispin}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
the resulting }
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From: }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 field would be:\
{\f1\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 From: Mark Crispin <MRC@CAC.Washington.EDU>\
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 The }
{\f0\i\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 Options}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 , all of which default to the off state, are as follows:\
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 . Literal Display }
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 sets the initial display state for new Read windows to be literal instead of filtered. A filtered display shows the message envelope information in a terse, human-readable "office memo" format. Literal display shows the exact RFC-822 header, which is often quite long.}
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 The following options are fields:}
{\f0\b\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 \
. Check Interval}
{\f0\fs24\fi0\li0\ql\gray0 sets the numbers of seconds between keep-alive checks on new IMAP connections. When the timer hits, a no-op is sent to the IMAP server (unless some IMAP operation is already in progress). This has two effects; it resets any inactivity autologout timer on the IMAP server and it causes an implicit check for new messages in the mailbox currently open on that server. Each open IMAP connection has its own timer. You cannot set an interval less than 60 seconds, although you can set a 0 interval meaning no checking. The default interval is 300 seconds (5 minutes).}
