  1. Begin from the Mail window.
    2. +
  2. Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account + Settings.

Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings - Server + Settings

+ +

&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups can work with two types of mail + servers: IMAP and POP. If you are not sure which server type your Internet + service provider supports, ask your service provider. If your Internet + service provider supports both, the following descriptions may help you + choose which one to use.

+ +
In this section: + +

+ +

About Internet Message Access + Protocol (IMAP)

+ +

Advantages: Your messages and any changes to them stay on + your server, saving local disk space. Also, you always have access to an + updated mailbox, and you can get your mail from multiple locations. + Performance on a modem is faster, since you initially download message + headers only.

+ +

Disadvantages: Not all ISPs support IMAP.

+ +

[Return to beginning of + section]

+ +

About Post Office Protocol (POP)

+ +

Advantages: Your messages are downloaded to your local + computer all at once, but you can also specify whether to keep copies of the + messages on the server and delete messages on the server when they are + deleted locally. Most ISPs currently support POP.

+ +

Disadvantages: If you use more than one computer, messages + might reside on one or the other, but not both. POP doesn't work as well + as IMAP over a slow link connection. Also, you can't access all mail + folders from multiple locations.

+ +

Note that more recent POP servers have features that allow retrieving only + the headers instead of the full message, like IMAP allows. Using these + features allows performance with POP to be nearly as fast as with IMAP.

+ +

+ +
    +
  1. Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You + see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.

      • +

About Certificates

+ +

The main purpose of the Security panel in Mail & Newsgroups Account + Settings is to select two certificates:

+ + + +

Depending on the policies of the + certificate authority (CA) + that issues your certificate(s), you can use one certificate for both + purposes or two different certificates. Even if you use just one, you must + specify it twice, once for digital signing and once for encryption.

+ +

The certificates you select here are included with every signed message you + send. These certificates allow your recipients to verify your digital + signature and to encrypt messages that they send to you.

+ +

Digital Signing

+ +

You use the Digital Signing area in the Security + panel to specify how you want to sign your email messages:

+ + + +

Regardless of whether the Digitally sign messages checkbox is + selected here, you can change your mind before you send an individual + message.

+ +

To change the digital signature setting for a message you are writing in + the Compose window, click the arrow below the Security icon near the top of + the window and select or deselect Digital Sign This Message. For + details, see Signing + & Encrypting a New Message.

+ +

Encryption

+ +

You use the Encryption area in the Security panel to + specify how you routinely want to use encryption when sending your + messages:

+ + + +

Regardless of which encryption option you select, you can change your mind + before you send an individual message.

+ +

To change the encryption setting for a message you are writing in the + Compose window, click the arrow below the Security icon near the top of the + window and choose the encryption setting you want. For details, see Signing + & Encrypting a New Message.
