+ <li><strong>Only check for new mail after opening Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups</strong>: By default, &brandShortName; checks for new messages
+ even if only a browser window is open. Choose this option if you want to
+ delay checking for new messages until after the Mail &amp; Newsgroups window
+ has been opened at least once (be it automatically <a

+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>

+ want to open a new one for each.</li>
+ <li><strong>Block images and other content from remote sources</strong>:
+ Select this checkbox if you do not want to display remote images and other
+ content in received messages, except from senders in your address books
+ whom you have allowed. (This checkbox is selected by default.)</li>
+ <li><strong>Wait [__] seconds before marking a message as read</strong>:
+ Choose this option if you do not want a message to be marked as read when
+ you are only taking a brief look at it. Enter the number of seconds you
+ want a message to be displayed before it gets marked as read automatically.
+
+ <p><strong>Tip</strong>: If you do not want Mail &amp; Newsgroups to mark
+ your messages as read automatically at all, you can select this option
+ and enter a very large number of seconds.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>Plain Text Messages</strong>: Select the font you prefer for
+ viewing plain-text messages: fixed width or variable width. Choosing a font
+ style, size, and color for quoted plain-text messages can help you more
+ easily distinguish quoted text (usually a message that&apos;s been
+ forwarded to you or by you).

+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, click Notifications. (If no

+ <li class="win"><strong>Show an alert</strong>: Select this if you want
+ &brandShortName; Mail &amp; Newsgroups to display a sliding alert above
+ your system tray in the lower right corner of your screen when new
+ messages arrive. The sliding alert only appears once when new messages
+ arrive, and won&apos;t appear again until you bring the Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups window to the front.

+ &brandShortName; Mail &amp; Newsgroups to display an icon in your system

+
+<p>Composition preferences affect how you create messages (for example,
+ forwarding options and address autocompletion) in all accounts. If you are
+ not already viewing the Composition settings, follow these steps:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>
+ <span class="noMac">Edit</span> menu and choose Preferences.</li>
+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, click Composition. (If no

+ the list.)</li>
+</ol>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Forward Messages</strong>: Choose how you want forwarded
+ message text to appear: as an attachment or inline (in the body of your
+ message).</li>
+ <li><strong>Quote attachments viewed inline in replies</strong>: If this
+ option is checked, then attachments (such as images, text, or messages)
+ viewed inline are included in the quote when replying to an email.</li>
+ <li><strong>Automatically save the message every [__] minutes</strong>:
+ Choose this option if you want Mail &amp; Newsgroups to save the message
+ you are currently composing automatically at the given interval. After a
+ computer crash or program failure you can find the latest saved version of
+ the message in your Drafts folder.</li>
+ <li><strong>Confirm when using keyboard shortcut to send message</strong>:
+ Check this option if want to be asked if you&apos;re sure to be ready to
+ send the message when you&apos;re pressing Ctrl+Return in message editor.
+ This may help you avoid accidentally sending the message if you enter the
+ keyboard shortcut by mistake when composing a message.</li>
+ <li><strong>Wrap plain text messages at [__] characters</strong>: Enter a
+ number to set the right margin for text in the message area.</li>
+ <li><strong>Check spelling before sending</strong>: Select this option to
+ have Mail &amp; Newsgroups always check the spelling of your message before
+ you send it.</li>
+ <li><strong>Check spelling as you type</strong>: Select this option to have
+ Mail &amp; Newsgroups always check the spelling of your message as you type
+ it.</li>
+ <li><strong>Language</strong>: Use the drop-down list to select the language
+ you want to use to check the spelling in your messages or to download more

+
+<h2 id="send_format">Mail &amp; Newsgroups Preferences - Send Format</h2>
+
+<p>Send Format preferences allow you to specify how you want to format your
+ outgoing messages. If you are not already viewing the Send Format settings,
+ follow these steps:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>
+ <span class="noMac">Edit</span> menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.</li>
+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, click Send Format. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &amp; Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)</li>
+</ol>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Ask me what to do</strong>: This option requires Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups to prompt you to choose a format before you send the
+ message.</li>
+ <li><strong>Convert the message to plain text</strong>: This option may
+ cause your message to lose formatting such as bold text.</li>
+ <li><strong>Send the message in HTML anyway</strong>: If you select this
+ option, keep in mind that some mail programs may have trouble displaying
+ the message.</li>
+ <li><strong>Send the message in both plain text and HTML</strong>: This
+ option uses more disk space.
+
+ <p>You can always override these preferences for an individual message by
+ using the Options menu in the Mail Compose window.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>HTML and Plain Text Domains</strong>: Use the Add button to add
+ the domain names that you typically send mail to, if you know which domains
+ can display HTML-formatted mail messages, and which domains can only
+ display plain text.</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>For example, if you typically send mail to multiple recipients that have the
+ same domain name (for example, your colleagues all have email addresses that
+ end in <q>netscape.net</q>), and you know that this domain name is capable of
+ displaying HTML messages, then you can add the netscape.net domain to the
+ list of HTML Domains so that Mail &amp; Newsgroups will automatically send
+ messages in HTML format to these recipients.</p>
+
+<p>Similarly, if you typically send mail to recipients at a domain that you
+ know can only receive Plain Text messages, you can add that domain name to
+ the list of Plain Text domains, so that Mail &amp; Newsgroups automatically
+ sends messages to that domain in plain-text format.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Note</strong>: If you regularly compose HTML (formatted) mail
+ messages, keep in mind that sometimes not all recipients use mail programs
+ that can display HTML formatting properly. Send Format preferences allow you
+ to specify how you want to format messages that go to recipients who cannot
+ display HTML-formatted mail. You can convert messages to plain text, format
+ them only as HTML, or format them as both HTML and plain text. These
+ preferences apply to all your mail accounts, but only to mail messages and
+ not to newsgroup messages.</p>
+
+<p>Whenever you add a person or address card to your address book, you can
+ specify whether that addressee can receive HTML-formatted messages. However,
+ when this information is unknown, you can set Send Format preferences for how
+ Mail &amp; Newsgroups formats these messages.</p>

+
+<h2 id="addressing_preferences">Mail &amp; Newsgroups Preferences -
+ Addressing</h2>
+
+<p>Addressing preferences allow you to control the settings for
+ &brandShortName; Mail &amp; Newsgroups address books (for example, email
+ address collection and address autocompletion). If you are not already
+ viewing the Addressing settings, follow these steps:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>
+ <span class="noMac">Edit</span> menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.</li>
+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, select Addressing. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &amp; Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)</li>
+</ol>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Email Address Collection</strong>: Select this if you want Mail
+ &amp; Newsgroups to automatically collect recipients&apos; email addresses.
+ Use the drop-down list to choose between having the addresses added to your
+ Collected Addresses or your Personal Address Book.</li>
+ <li id="address_autocompletion"><strong>Address Autocompletion</strong>:
+ Address autocompletion allows you to quickly address mail without having to
+ search for names or type names completely. Select from which location Mail
+ &amp; Newsgroups will search for matching addresses: <q>Local Address
+ Books</q> (Personal Address Book, Collected Addresses, or any other local
+ address book) or <q>Directory Server</q> (an available LDAP directory
+ server) or both. If you want Mail &amp; Newsgroups to highlight addresses
+ that do not autocomplete, then select that option.
+
+ <p><strong>Note</strong>: If while addressing mail, multiple email address
+ matches are found, Mail &amp; Newsgroups displays a list of all possible
+ choices.</p>
+
+ <p>If you select Directory Server, choose a directory server from the list.
+ A directory server lets you look up addresses that are not stored in one
+ of your local address books. The directory you select will also be
+ searched for matching certificates when you attempt to send an encrypted
+ message to one or more recipients for whom you don&apos;t have
+ certificates on file.</p>
+
+ <p>See <a
+ href="mailnews_addressbooks.xhtml#adding_and_removing_ldap_directories">Adding
+ and Removing LDAP Directories</a> for information on setting LDAP
+ directory server settings.</p>
+
+ <p><strong>Note</strong>: Directory server settings you enter from the
+ Preferences dialog box apply to all your mail accounts. You can override
+ these settings for individual accounts by specifying different LDAP
+ directory servers or server settings using the Addressing settings for an
+ account in the Mail &amp; Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box. To set
+ different addressing options for a specific account, open the Edit menu
+ and choose Mail &amp; Newsgroups Account Settings.</p>

+ when being displayed or created in all accounts. If you are not already
+ viewing the Character Encoding settings, follow these steps:</p>
+
+<ol>
+ <li>Open the <span class="mac">&brandShortName;</span>
+ <span class="noMac">Edit</span> menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.</li>
+ <li>Under the Mail &amp; Newsgroups category, click Character Encoding. (If
+ no subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &amp; Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)</li>
+</ol>
+
+<ul>
+ <li><strong>Default Character Encoding</strong>: Click this drop-down list to
+ select the character encoding you want Mail &amp; Newsgroups to use as the
+ default for incoming mail and newsgroup messages. This is recommended if
+ it&apos;s likely you might receive messages in which the character encoding
+ (MIME charset) is not indicated, such as when reading messages in
+ international newsgroups.</li>
+ <li><strong>Always use this default character encoding when messages are
+ displayed</strong>: Select this to apply the default character encoding to
+ all messages.
+
+ <p><strong>Tip</strong>: You can later view or change the character
+ encoding for a specific folder. In the Mail window, select a folder from
+ the list of Mail folders. Open the View menu, and choose Character
+ Encoding.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li><strong>For messages that contain 8-bit characters, use &apos;quoted
+ printable&apos; MIME encoding</strong>: Choose to have Mail &amp;
+ Newsgroups use <q>quoted printable</q> MIME encoding when sending regular
+ messages that use an 8-bit character encoding (for example, Latin
+ ISO-8859-3).</li>
+ <li><strong>Default Character Encoding</strong>: Select the character
+ encoding you want Mail &amp; Newsgroups to use as the default for outgoing
+ mail and newsgroup messages. Note that this character encoding is
+ <strong>not</strong> used when replying to a message. Instead, the
+ character encoding of the message being replied to is used by default.
+ Choose <strong>Always use this default character encoding in
+ replies</strong> to use the default character encoding for outgoing
+ messages even when replying.</li>
