+Certificate Information and Decisions
+
+
+
+
+
This document is provided for your information only.
+ It may help you take certain steps to protect the privacy and security of
+ your personal information on the Internet. This document does not, however,
+ address all online privacy and security issues, nor does it represent a
+ recommendation about what constitutes adequate privacy and security
+ protection on the Internet.
+
+
Certificate Information and
+ Decisions
+
+
This section describes how to use various windows displayed at different times by
+ Certificate Manager. The additional information given here appears when you click
+ the Help button in one of those windows.
The Certificate Viewer displays information about a certificate you selected
+ in one of the Certificate Manager tabs. The General tab summarizes
+ information about who issued the certificate, its verification status, what
+ the certificate can be used for, and so on. The Details tab provides complete
+ details on the certificate's contents.
+
+
If you are not currently viewing the Certificate Viewer, follow these
+ steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Manage Certificates.
+
Click the tab for the type of certificate whose details you want to
+ view.
+
Select the certificate whose details you want to view.
When you first open the Certificate Viewer, the General tab displays several
+ kinds of information about the selected certificate:
+
+
+
This certificate has been verified for the following
+ uses: See
+ certificate verification
+ for a discussion of how the Certificate Manager verifies certificates. Uses
+ can include any of the following:
+
+
SSL Client Certificate: Certificate used to identify
+ you to websites.
+
SSL Server Certificate: Certificate used to identify
+ a website server to browsers.
+
Email Signer Certificate: Certificate used to
+ identify you for the purposes of digitally signing email messages.
+
Email Recipient Certificate: Certificate used to
+ identify someone else, for example so you can send that person
+ encrypted email.
+
Status Responder Certificate: Certificate used to
+ identify an online status responder that uses the Online Certificate
+ Status Protocol (OCSP) to check the validity of certificates. For more
+ information about OCSP, see
+ Validation Settings.
+
SSL Certificate Authority: Certificate used to
+ identify a certificate authority—that is, a service that issues
+ certificates for use as identification over computer networks.
+
+
+
Issued To: Summarizes the following information about
+ the certificate:
+
+
Common Name: The name of the person or other entity
+ that the certificate identifies.
+
Organization: The name of the organization to which
+ the entity belongs (such as the name of a company).
+
Organizational Unit: The name of the organizational
+ unit to which the entity belongs (such as Accounting Department).
+
Serial Number: The certificate's serial
+ number.
+
+
+
Issued By: Summarizes information (similar to that
+ provided under Issued To; see above) about the certificate authority
+ (CA) that issued the certificate.
+
Validity: Indicates the period during which the
+ certificate is valid.
+
Fingerprints: Lists the certificate's fingerprints.
+ A fingerprint is a unique number produced by applying a mathematical
+ function to the certificate contents. A certificate's fingerprint can
+ be used to verify that the certificate has not been tampered with.
+
+
+
Details Tab
+
+
Click the Details tab at the top of the Certificate Viewer to see more
+ detailed information about the selected certificate. To examine information
+ for any certificate in the Certificate Hierarchy area, select its name,
+ select the field under Certificate Fields that you want to examine, and
+ read the field's value under Field Value:
+
+
+
Certificate Hierarchy: Displays the certificate chain,
+ with the certificate you originally selected at the bottom. A certificate
+ chain is a hierarchical series of certificates signed by successive
+ certificate authorities (CAs). A CA certificate identifies a
+ certificate authority
+ and is used to sign certificates issued by that authority. A CA certificate
+ can in turn be signed by the CA certificate of a parent CA and so on up to
+ a root CA.
+
Certificate Fields: Displays the fields of the
+ certificate selected under Certificate Hierarchy.
+
Field Value: Displays the value of the field selected
+ under Certificate Fields.
+
+
+
The Certificate Viewer displays basic ANSI types in human-readable form
+ wherever possible. For fields whose contents the Certificate Manager cannot
+ interpret, it displays the actual values contained in the certificate.
+
+
Choose Security Device
+
+
A security device (sometimes called a token) is a hardware or software
+ device that provides cryptographic services such as encryption and decryption
+ and stores certificates and keys. The Choose Security Device window appears
+ when Certificate Manager needs help deciding which security device to use
+ when importing a certificate or performing a cryptographic operation, such as
+ generating keys for a new certificate. This window allows you to select one
+ of two or more security devices that Certificate Manager has detected on your
+ machine.
+
+
A smart card is one example of a security device. For example, if a smart
+ card reader connected to your computer has a smart card inserted in it, the
+ name of the smart card will show up in the drop-down menu. In this case, you
+ must choose the name of the smart card from the menu to let Certificate
+ Manager know that you want to use it.
+
+
The Certificate Manager also supplies its own default, built-in security
+ device, which can always be used no matter what additional devices are or
+ aren't available.
+
+
Encryption Key Copy
+
+
Certificate authorities (CAs)
+ that issue separate signing and encryption email certificates typically make
+ backup copies of your private
+ encryption key during the
+ certificate enrollment process.
+
+
The Encryption Key Copy dialog box allows you to approve the creation of
+ such a backup or cancel the certificate request. A CA that has archived a
+ backup copy of your encryption key has the potential capability of
+ decrypting any messages you receive that were encrypted with your
+ corresponding public key.
+
+
You can take these actions from the Encryption Key Copy dialog box:
+
+
+
View Certificate: To view the certificate identifying
+ the CA that is requesting the backup copy, click View Certificate.
+
OK: If you trust the CA identified by the CA certificate
+ to decrypt encrypted messages that you receive, click OK.
+
+
If you are not sure whether to trust the CA that is requesting the
+ backup copy, talk to your system administrator.
+
+
Cancel: If you don't trust the CA that is
+ requesting the backup copy, don't request a certificate from it. Click
+ Cancel to stop both the backup procedure and the request for a
+ certificate.
+
+
+
After your CA makes a backup copy of the encryption key, you will be able to
+ use that key to access your encrypted mail even if you lose your password or
+ lose your own copy of the key. If no backup copy of your encryption key
+ exists and you lose your password or the key, you will have no way of reading
+ email messages that were encrypted with that key.
+
+
Certificate Backup
+
+
When you receive a certificate, make a backup copy of the certificate and
+ its private key, then store the copy in a safe place. For example, you can
+ put the copy on a floppy disk and store it with other valuable items under
+ lock and key. That way, even if you have hard disk or file corruption
+ problems, you can easily restore the certificate.
+
+
It can be inconvenient, at best, and in some situations catastrophic to lose
+ your certificate and its associated private key, depending on what you use it
+ for. For example:
+
+
+
If you lose a certificate that identifies you to important websites, you
+ will not be able to access those websites until you obtain a new
+ certificate.
+
If you lose a certificate used to encrypt email messages, you will not
+ be able to read any of your encrypted email—including both encrypted
+ messages that you have sent and encrypted messages that you have received.
+ In this case, if you cannot obtain a backup of the private encryption key
+ associated with the certificate, you will never be able to read any of the
+ messages encrypted with that key.
+
+
+
Like any other valuable data, certificates should be backed up to avoid
+ future trouble and expense. Do it now so you don't forget.
+
+
User Identification Request
+
+
Some websites require that you identify yourself with a certificate rather
+ than a name and password, because certificates provide a more reliable form
+ of identification. This method of identifying yourself over the Internet is
+ sometimes called
+ client authentication.
+
+
However, Certificate Manager may have more than one certificate on file that
+ can be used for the purposes of identifying yourself to a website. In this
+ case, Certificate Manager presents the User Identification Request dialog
+ box, which displays two kinds of information:
+
+
This site has requested that you identify yourself with a
+ certificate: This section of the dialog box lists the following
+ information:
+
+
+
Host name: The name of the server requesting
+ identification, used as part of its URL. For example, the host name for the
+ Netscape website is home.netscape.com.
+
Organization: The name of the organization that runs the
+ web site.
Choose a certificate to present as identification: The
+ certificates you have available for the purposes of identifying yourself to a
+ website are listed in the drop-down list in this section of the dialog box.
+ Choose the certificate that seems most likely to be recognized by the website
+ you want to visit.
+
+
To help you decide, the following details of the selected certificate are
+ displayed:
+
+
+
Issued to: Lists information about the person identified
+ by the certificate (for example, your name and email address) and the
+ certificate's serial number and validity dates.
+
Issued by: Summarizes information about the CA that
+ issued the certificate, such as its name, location, and state.
+
+
+
New Certificate Authority
+
+
The certificates that the Certificate Manager has on file, whether stored on
+ your computer or on an external security device such as a smart card, include
+ certificates that identify
+ certificate authorities (CAs).
+ To be able to recognize any other certificates it has on file, Certificate
+ Manager must have certificates for the CAs that issued or authorized issuance
+ of those certificates.
+
+
When you decide to trust a CA, Certificate Manager downloads that CA's
+ certificate and can then recognize the kinds of certificates you trust that
+ CA to issue.
+
+
Before downloading a new CA certificate, Certificate Manager allows you to
+ specify the purposes for which you trust the certificate, if at all. You can
+ select any of the following options:
+
+
+
Trust this CA to identify websites: Website certificates
+ for some sites, such as those that handle financial transactions, can be
+ extremely important, and inappropriate or false identification can have
+ negative consequences.
+
Trust this CA to identify email users: If you intend to
+ send email users confidential information in encrypted form, or if accurate
+ identification of email users is important to you for any other reason, you
+ should consider carefully the CA's procedures for identifying
+ prospective certificate owners and whether they are appropriate for your
+ purposes before selecting this option.
+
Trust this CA to identify software developers: Selecting
+ this option means that you trust the CA to issue certificates that identify
+ the origin of Java applets and JavaScript scripts requesting special access
+ to your computer, such as the ability to change files. Since such access
+ privileges can be misused, for example to destroy data stored on your hard
+ disk, be very careful about selecting this option unless you are certain
+ that you trust the CA for this purpose.
+
+
+
Before you decide to trust a new CA, make sure that you know who is
+ operating it. Make sure the CA's policies and procedures are
+ appropriate for the kinds of certificates it issues. For example, if the CA
+ issues certificates identifying websites you use for financial transactions,
+ make sure you are comfortable with the level of assurance the CA
+ provides.
+
+

View: Click this button to view the CA certificate you
+ are about to download. If you decide you don't want to download this
+ certificate, click Cancel.

+
+
Website Certificates
+
+
One of the windows listed here may appear when you attempt to go to a
+ website that supports the use of SSL for
+ authentication and
+ encryption.
Many websites use certificates to identify themselves when you visit the
+ site. If Certificate Manager doesn't recognize the
+ certificate authority (CA)
+ that issued a website's certificate, it displays an alert that allows
+ you to examine the new website certificate and decide what to do.
+
+
Use the buttons to perform the following actions:
+
+
View Certificate: Examine the website's
+ certificate.
+
Cancel: Cancel the operation. Certificate Manager
+ will not recognize the certificate as legitimate identification and will not
+ connect to the website.
+
OK: Accept the certificate and connect to the website.
+ Choose for how long the certificate should be accepted:
+
+
Accept this certificate permanently: Certificate
+ Manager will recognize the certificate as legitimate identification
+ until the certificate expires.
+
Accept this certificate temporarily for this session:
+ Certificate Manager will recognize the certificate as legitimate
+ identification only during your current &brandShortName; session. You
+ will see the alert again if you restart &brandShortName; and attempt to
+ visit the website.
+
+
+
+
+
Important note for server administrators: This alert may be
+ triggered by a server that is not configured correctly. To find out if this
+ is the case, the server administrator or webmaster for the site you are
+ attempting to visit should check the status of any required intermediate CAs
+ and if necessary, install the missing certificate in the server.
+
+
If you decide to contact the website's webmaster about this issue, you
+ can include the following information:
If the server is using a VeriSign certificate, the server administrator
+ can download the appropriate certificate from here:
+ SSL
+ Certificates Support
+
+
+
For advanced users: To ensure that Certificate Manager
+ trusts all certificates issued by a given CA, you can edit the trust
+ settings for the corresponding CA certificate. To do so, follow these
+ steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Manage Certificates.
+
Click the Authorities tab.
+
Select the CA certificate whose trust settings you want to edit.
+
Click the Edit button and select the appropriate trust settings.
+
+
+
Server Certificate Expired
+
+
Like a credit card, a driver's license, and many other forms of
+ identification, a certificate is
+ valid for a specified period of time. When a certificate expires, the owner
+ of the certificate needs to get a new one.
+
+
Certificate Manager warns you when you attempt to visit a website whose
+ server certificate has expired. The first thing you should do is make sure
+ the time and date displayed by your computer is correct. If your
+ computer's clock is set to a date that is after the expiration date,
+ Certificate Manager treats the website's certificate as expired.
+
+
If your computer's clock is set correctly, you need to make a decision
+ about whether to trust the site. This decision depends on what you intend to
+ do at the site and what else you know about it. Most commercial sites will
+ make sure that they replace their certificates before they expire.
+
+
You can take these actions from the Expired Server Certificate dialog
+ box:
+
+
+
View Certificate: To examine information about the
+ certificate, including its validity period, click View Certificate.
+
Continue: If you have reason to believe the
+ certificate's expiration is an inadvertent error, you may choose to
+ click Continue to accept the certificate anyway for this session, and let
+ the webmaster for the site know about the problem.
+
+
Be cautious about any actions you take while you are visiting the
+ site.
+
+
Cancel: If you suspect that there may be a significant
+ problem and you don't want to risk visiting the site at all, click
+ Cancel (in which case Certificate Manager will not connect you to the
+ site).
+
+
+
Server Certificate Not Yet Valid
+
+
Like a credit card, a driver's license, and many other forms of
+ identification, a certificate is
+ valid for a specified period of time.
+
+
Certificate Manager warns you when you attempt to visit a website whose
+ server certificate's validity period has not yet started. The first
+ thing you should do is make sure the time and date displayed by your own
+ computer is correct. If your computer's clock is set to the wrong date,
+ Certificate Manager may treat the server certificate as not yet valid even
+ if this is not the case.
+
+
If your computer's clock is set correctly, you need to make a decision
+ about whether to trust the site. This decision depends on what you intend to
+ do at the site and what else you know about it. Most commercial sites will
+ make sure that the validity period for their certificates has begun before
+ beginning to use them.
+
+
You can take these actions from the Server Certificate Not Yet Valid dialog
+ box:
+
+
+
View Certificate: To examine information about the
+ certificate, including its validity period, click View Certificate.
+
OK: If you have reason to believe the problem is an
+ inadvertent error, you may choose to click OK to accept the certificate
+ anyway for this session, and let the webmaster for the site know about the
+ problem.
+
+
Be cautious about any actions you take while you are visiting the
+ site.
+
+
Cancel: If you suspect that there may be a significant
+ problem and you don't want to risk visiting the site at all, click
+ Cancel (in which case Certificate Manager will not connect you to the
+ site).
+
+
+
Domain Name Mismatch
+
+
A server certificate specifies the
+ name of the server in the form of the site's domain name. For example,
+ the domain name for the Mozilla website is www.mozilla.org. If the
+ domain name in a server's certificate doesn't match the actual
+ domain name of the website, it may be a sign that someone is attempting to
+ intercept your communication with the website.
+
+
The decision whether to trust the site anyway depends on what you intend to
+ do at the site and what else you know about it. Most commercial sites will
+ make sure that the host name for a website certificate matches
+ the website's actual host name.
+
+
You can take these actions from the Domain Name Mismatch dialog box:
+
+
+
View Certificate: To examine information about the
+ certificate, click View Certificate.
+
OK: If you have reason to believe the problem is an
+ inadvertent error, you may choose to click OK to accept the certificate
+ anyway for this session, and let the webmaster for the site know about
+ the problem.
+
+
Be cautious about any actions you take while you are visiting the site,
+ and treat any information you find there as potentially suspect.
+
+
Cancel: If you suspect that there may be a significant
+ problem and you don't want to risk visiting the site at all, click
+ Cancel (in which case Certificate Manager will not connect you to the
+ site).
+
+
+
If you decide to accept the certificate anyway for this session, you should
+ be cautious about what you do on the website, and you should treat any
+ information you find there as potentially suspect.
This document is provided for your information only.
+ It may help you take certain steps to protect the privacy and security of

Certificate Manager
+
+
This section describes how to use the Certificate Manager. For more
+ information on using certificates, see Using
+ Certificates.
+
+
If you are not currently viewing the Certificate Manager window, follow
+ these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
The Your Certificates tab in the Certificate
+ Manager displays the certificates on file that identify you. Your
+ certificates are listed under the names of the organizations that issued
+ them:
+
+
+
If you can't see certificate names under an organization's
+ name, double-click the name.
+
To select a certificate, click its name.
+
To select more than one certificate, hold down the Control key and click
+ their names.
+
+
+
To perform the following actions, select one or more certificates and click
+ one of the following buttons:
+
+
+
View: Display detailed information about the selected
+ certificates.
+
Backup: Initiate the process of saving the selected
+ certificates. A window appears that allows you to choose a password to
+ protect the backup. You can then save the backup in a directory of your
+ choice.
+
Delete: Delete the selected certificates.
+
+
+
These actions do not require a certificate to be selected:
+
+
+
Import: Import a file containing one or more
+ certificates that were previously backed up. When you click Import,
+ Certificate Manager first asks you to locate the file that contains the
+ backup. The names of certificate backup files typically end in
+ .p12; for example, MyCert.p12. After you select the file
+ to be imported, Certificate Manager asks you to enter the password that you
+ set when you backed up the certificate.
+
Backup All: Initiate the process of saving all the
+ certificates stored in the
+ Software Security
+ Device.
+
+
Note: Certificates on smart cards cannot be backed up.
+ Whether you select some of your certificates and click Backup, or click
+ Backup All, the resulting backup file will not include any certificates
+ stored on smart cards or other external security devices. You can only
+ back up certificates that are stored on the built-in Software Security
+ Device.
+
+
+
+
Choose a Certificate Backup
+ Password
+
+
A certificate backup password protects one or more certificates that you are
+ backing up from the Your Certificates tab in
+ the Certificate Manager.
+
+
The Certificate Manager asks you to set this password when you back up
+ certificates, and requests it when you attempt to import certificates that
+ have previously been backed up.
+
+
+
Certificate backup password: Type your backup password
+ into this field.
+
Certificate backup password (again): Type your backup
+ password again. If you don't type it the second time exactly as you
+ did the first time, the OK button remains inactive. If this happens, try
+ typing the new password again.
+
+
+
If someone obtains the file containing a certificate that you have backed up
+ and successfully imports the certificate, that person can send messages or
+ access websites while pretending to be you. This can be a problem, for
+ example, if you digitally sign important email messages or manage your bank
+ or investment accounts over the Internet.
+
+
Therefore, it's important to select a certificate backup password that
+ is difficult to guess. The password quality meter gives you
+ a rough idea of the quality of your password as you type it based on factors
+ such as length and the use of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers,
+ and symbols. It does not guarantee that your password cannot be guessed,
+ however.
It's also important to record the password in a safe place—and
+ not anywhere that's easily accessible to someone else. If you forget
+ this password, you can't import the backup of your certificate.
+
+
Delete Your Certificates
+
+
Before deleting one of your own expired certificates from the
+ Your Certificates tab in the Certificate
+ Manager, make sure you won't need it again some day for reading old
+ email messages that you may have encrypted with the corresponding private
+ key.
+
+
Other People's Certificates
+
+
The Other People's tab in the Certificate
+ Manager displays email certificates you have on file that identify other
+ people.
+
+
When people send you digitally signed email messages, Certificate Manager
+ imports their certificates automatically. You can use these certificates to
+ send encrypted messages to those people.
+
+
Other people's certificates are listed under the names of the
+ organizations that issued them:
+
+
+
If you can't see certificate names under an organization's
+ name, double-click the name.
+
To select a certificate, click its name.
+
To select more than one certificate, hold down the Control key and click
+ their names.
+
+
+
To perform the following actions, select one or more certificates and click
+ one of the following buttons:
+
+
+
View: Display detailed information about the selected
+ certificates.
+
Delete: Delete the selected certificates.
+
+
+
Delete Email Certificates
+
+
Before deleting someone else's certificate from the
+ Other People's tab in the
+ Certificate Manager, make sure you won't need it again some day to send
+ encrypted email to that person or to verify digital signatures on messages
+ from that person.
+
+
Website Certificates
+
+
The Websites tab in the Certificate Manager displays certificates you have
+ on file that identify websites.
+
+
Website certificates are grouped under the names of the organizations that
+ issued them:
+
+
+
If you can't see certificate names under an organization's
+ name, double-click the name.
+
To select a certificate, click its name.
+
To select more than one certificate, hold down the Control key and click
+ their names.
+
+

The dialog box contains these elements:
+
+
+
The certificate name of certificate was
+ issued by: Provides information about the
+ certificate authority
+ that issued this certificate.
+
Edit certificate trust settings:
+
+
Trust the authenticity of this certificate: If you
+ select this option, Certificate Manager will henceforth trust this
+ certificate for the purposes of identifying this website or setting up
+ an encrypted connection. If you select this option and then attempt to
+ visit the website, your browser will access the site with few, if any,
+ warnings.
+
Do not trust the authenticity of this certificate:
+ If you select this option, Certificate Manager will no longer trust
+ this certificate for the purposes of identifying this website or
+ setting up an encrypted connection. If you select this option and
+ then attempt to visit the website, you will see one or more warning
+ messages before you can access the site.
+
+
+
Edit CA Trust: Click this button to specify trust
+ settings for the certificate authority (CA) that issued the website
+ certificate. These settings allow you to trust or not to trust different
+ kinds of certificates issued by that certificate authority. For example,
+ you can choose to trust all website certificates issued by the
+ authority.
+
+
+
Click OK to confirm your choice.
+
+
Delete Website Certificates
+
+
Before deleting a website certificate from the
+ Websites tab in the Certificate
+ Manager, make sure that you won't need it again for the purposes of
+ identifying a website and setting up an encrypted connection.
CA certificates are grouped under the names of the organizations that issued
+ them:
+
+
+
If you can't see CA certificate names under an organization's
+ name, double-click the name.
+
To select a CA certificate, click its name.
+
To select more than one CA certificate, hold down the Control key and
+ click their names.
+
+
+
To perform these actions, select the certificates on which you want to act
+ and click one of these buttons:
+
+
+
View: Display detailed information about the selected
+ certificates.
+
Edit: View or change the settings that Certificate
+ Manager associates with the selected certificates. You can use these
+ settings to designate what kinds of certificates, if any, you trust that
+ are issued by the corresponding CAs.
+
Delete: Delete the selected certificates.
+
+
+
To ensure that an entire
+ certificate chain of CAs are
+ all trusted, you need to edit the root CA certifiate only.
+
+
To import the chain, you click a link on a web page provided by the CA. You
+ can then use the authorities tab to locate the root certificate and edit its
+ trust settings.
+
+
The root and intermediate CAs all appear under the same organization. The
+ root certificate is the one that lists itself as the the issuer.
+
+
If you download an intermediate CA: If you download an
+ intermediate CA certificate that chains to a root certificate already marked
+ as trusted in your browser, you don't have to indicate what purposes you
+ trust it for. Intermediate certificates automatically inherit the trust
+ settings of their roots.
+
+
Edit CA Certificate Trust
+ Settings
+
+
When you select a CA certificate from the
+ Authorities tab in the Certificate Manager and
+ click Edit, you see a window entitled Edit CA certificate trust

+ organizations.
+
+
To examine or configure the certificates you have on file, click Manage
+ Certificates.
+
+
Manage Security Devices
+
+
A security device is a hardware or software device that stores your

+
+
To examine or configure your security devices, click Manage Security
+ Devices.
Creating Web Pages with
+ &brandShortName; Composer
+
+
&brandShortName; Composer lets you create your own web pages and publish
+ them on the web. You don't have to know HTML to use Composer; it is as
+ easy to use as a word processor.
+
+
Toolbar buttons let you add lists, tables, images, links to other pages,
+ colors, and font styles. You can see what your document will look like on
+ the Web as you create it, and you can easily share your document with
+ other users, no matter what type of browser or HTML-capable email program
+ they use.
+
+
To start using &brandShortName; Composer:
+
+
+
Click the Composer icon in the lower-left corner of any
+ &brandShortName; window.
&brandShortName; Composer is an HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) editor that
+ allows you to create and edit web pages. Composer is a WYSIWYG (What
+ You See Is What You Get) editor, so you can display how your page will look
+ to the reader as you're creating it. It is not necessary for you to know
+ HTML, since most of the basic HTML functions are available as commands from
+ the toolbars and menus.
+
+
Composer also lets you edit the HTML source if you want. To view or edit the
+ HTML source code, open the View menu, and choose HTML Source, or click the
+ <HTML> Source tab in the Edit Mode toolbar at the bottom of the
+ Composer window.
+
+
To create a web page, use one of the methods described below. Once
+ you've started a page, you can add and edit text just as you would
+ in a word processor.
+
+
To create a new page from the browser:
+
+
+
Open the File menu, choose New, and then Composer Page. A Composer
+ window containing a blank page opens.
+
+
+
To edit a page you're currently viewing in the
+ browser:
+
+
+
In the browser window of the page you're viewing, open the File
+ menu and choose Edit Page. You see a Composer window that contains the
+ page you're viewing.
+
+
+
To create a new page in Composer:
+
+
+
Click the New button in Composer's toolbar.
+
+
+
To start from an HTML file stored on your local drive:
+
+
+
Open the Window menu and choose Composer. You see the Composer
+ window.
+
Open the File menu and choose Open File. You see the Open HTML File
+ dialog box.
+
On your local drive, locate the file that you want to edit.
+
Click Open to display the specified file in a Composer window.
+
+
+
To edit a web page:
+
+
+
Open the Window menu and choose Browser.
+
Go to a web page: type the URL of the page (for example,
+ http://www.mozilla.org) in the Location Bar and press
+ ReturnEnter.
+
Open the File menu and choose Edit Page.
+
+
+
Tip: In the Composer window you can quickly open the most
+ recent file you've been working on by opening the File menu, choosing
+ Recent Pages, and then selecting the file you want from the list.
You can save Composer documents in HTML or text-only format. Saving a
+ document in HTML format preserves the document's formatting, such
+ as text styles (for example, bold or italic), tables, links, and images.
+ Saving a document in text-only format removes all the HTML tags but
+ preserves the document's text.
+
+
To save a document as an HTML file:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Save or click the Save button on the
+ Composition toolbar.
+
+
If you haven't already given your page a title, Composer prompts
+ you to do so. Composer displays the page title in the browser
+ window's title bar when you view the page in the browser. The
+ document's page title also appears in your list of bookmarks
+ if you bookmark the page.
+
+
Composer then prompts you to enter a filename and specify the location
+ where you want to save the file. Make sure you preserve the .html
+ extension in the filename.
+
+
+
+
To change the filename or location of an existing HTML file:
+
+
+
Choose Save As and select a different filename or location.
+
+
+
When you save a page in Composer, all parts of the page (the HTML, images
+ and other files, such as sound files and style sheets), are saved locally
+ on your hard drive. If you only want to save the HTML part of the page, you
+ must change the Composer preference for saving pages. See
+ Composer Preferences - Composer for more information
+ on changing Composer's setting for saving pages.
+
+
If an image location is absolute (starts with http://) and you are
+ connected to the Internet, you will still see that image in the document in
+ Composer and the browser. However, if the image location is relative to the
+ page location (starts with file:///), then you won't see the
+ image in the local version of the document.
+
+
To save a document as a text-only file:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Export to Text.
+
Enter the filename and specify the location where you want to save the
+ file.
+
+
+
Note: Images do not appear in documents saved in the
+ text-only format.
+
+
Tip: You can choose Revert to Last Saved from the File
+ menu to retrieve the most recently saved copy of the document in which
+ you're working. Keep in mind that your current changes will be lost.
+
+
To view your page in a browser window in order to test your links:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Browse Page (or click Browse in the
+ Composition toolbar). If you have not yet saved your document, Composer
+ prompts you to enter a page title, filename, and location. The Composer
+ window remains open behind the new browser window.
To apply a format to a paragraph, begin from the Composer window:
+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point where you want the format to begin,
+ or select the text you want to format.
+
Choose a paragraph format using the drop-down list in the Format toolbar:
+
+
Body Text: Applies the application default font and
+ style for regular text, without affecting the spacing before or after
+ the text.
+
Paragraph: Inserts a paragraph tag (use this to
+ begin a new paragraph). The paragraph includes top and bottom
+ margins.
+
Heading 1 - Heading 6: Formats the
+ paragraph as a heading. Heading 1 is the highest-level heading, while
+ Heading 6 is the lowest-level heading.
+
Address: Can be used for a web page signature
+ that indicates the author of the page and the person to contact for
+ more information, for example: user@example.com
+
+
You might want to include the date and a copyright notice. This
+ format usually appears at the bottom of the web page under a
+ horizontal line. The browser displays the address format in
+ italics.
+
+
Preformat: This is useful for elements such as code
+ examples, column data, and mail messages that you want displayed in a
+ fixed-width font. In normal text, most browsers remove extra spaces,
+ tabs, and paragraph returns. However, text that uses the Preformatted
+ style is displayed with the white space intact, preserving the layout
+ of the original text.
+
+
+
+
+
To format text as a heading:
+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point anywhere within the text that you
+ want to format.
+
Using the drop-down list in the Format toolbar, choose the level of
+ heading you want, from 1 (largest) to 6 (smallest). Choose Heading 1
+ for your main heading, Heading 2 for the next level, and so
+ forth.
+
+
+

+
Bulleted: Each item has a bullet (dot) next to it
+ (as in this list).
+
Numbered: Items are numbered.
+
Term and Definition: These two
+ styles work together, creating a glossary-style appearance. Use the
+ Term tag for the word being defined, and the Definition tag for the
+ definition. The Term text appears flush left, and the Definition
+ text appears indented.
+
+
+
+
+
Tip: You can quickly apply a list style to a block of
+ text by selecting the text and clicking the Numbered List
+
+ or Bulleted List
+
+ buttons on the Format toolbar.
+

+ apply a new style to the entire list.
+
Open the Format menu and choose List Properties.
+
Select a bullet or number style from the drop-down list. For numbered
+ lists, you can specify a starting number. For bulleted lists, you can
+ change the bullet style.
+
+
+
Tip: You can also double-click on a bullet or number in a

+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point within the list item.
+
Press Shift+ReturnEnterto create the hanging indent.
+
Type the text you want to indent.
+
Press Shift+ReturnEnter to create another indented paragraph, or press
+ ReturnEnter to create the
+ next list item.
+
+
+
Tip: You can increase or decrease the indentation of list
+ items by clicking anywhere in a list item and then clicking the Indent or

+ example, Code.
+
Text Color: Use this to choose a color from the
+ color picker. If you are familiar with HTML hexadecimal color codes,
+ you can type a specific code or you can just type a color name (for
+ example, blue). You'll find the official W3C list of CSS
+ supported color names
+ here,
+ and another list of commonly supported color names
+ here.
+
+
+
+
+
+
To change the background color of the page:

+ again.
+
+
Click Close when you are done inserting special characters.
If you understand how to work with HTML source code, you can insert
+ additional tags, style attributes, and JavaScript into your page. If you are
+ not sure how to work with HTML source code, it's best not to change it.
+ To work with HTML code, use one of these methods:
+
+
+
Place the insertion point where you want to insert the HTML code, or
+ select the text you want to edit, and then open the Insert menu and choose
+ HTML. In the Insert HTML dialog box, enter HTML tags and text, and then
+ click Insert.
+
Select an element such as a table, named anchor, image, link, or
+ horizontal line. Double-click the element to open the associated properties
+ dialog box for that item. Click Advanced Edit to open the Advanced Property
+ Editor. You can use the Advanced Property Editor to add HTML attributes,
+ JavaScript, and CSS to objects.
+
Open the View menu, and choose HTML Source, or click the <HTML>
+ Source tab in the Edit Mode toolbar at the bottom of the Composer window.
+ (If you don't see the Edit Mode toolbar, open the View menu and choose
+ Show/Hide; then make sure the Edit Mode Toolbar is checked.)
+
+
+
Using the Advanced Property
+ Editor
+
+
To add HTML attributes and JavaScript to objects such as tables, images,
+ and horizontal lines, you can use the Advanced Property Editor.
+
+
Note: Unless you clearly understand how to add, delete, or
+ modify HTML attributes and their associated values, it's best not to do
+ so.
+
+
If you are not currently viewing the Advanced Property Editor dialog box,
+ follow these steps:
+
+
+
From the View menu (or the Edit Mode toolbar), choose HTML Tags.
+
Double-click the object that you want to modify to open its Properties
+ dialog box.
+
Click Advanced Edit to open the object's Advanced Property Editor.
+ The Advanced Property Editor has three tabs, each of which lists the
+ current properties for the selected object:
+
+
HTML Attributes: Click this tab to view or enter
+ additional HTML attributes.
+
Inline Style: Click this tab to view or enter
+ additional CSS (cascading style sheet) properties through the
+ <style> attribute. For more information on using CSS styles
+ in Composer, see
+ Composer Preferences -Composer.
+
JavaScript Events: Click this tab to view or enter
+ JavaScript events.
+
+
+
To edit a property or attribute in any of the three lists, select the
+ attribute you want to edit. You can then edit the attribute's name
+ or value using the editable Attribute and Value fields at the bottom of
+ the dialog box. To add a new attribute, type it in the Attribute field
+ at the bottom of the dialog box. The new attribute is automatically added
+ when you click in the Value field. To remove an attribute, select it in
+ the list, and click Remove Attribute.
+
+
Note: Required attributes are highlighted in the
+ Attribute list.
+
+
Click OK to apply your changes to the Advanced Property Editor dialog
+ box.
+
Click OK again to exit the Properties dialog box.
+
+
+
Composer automatically places quotation marks around any attribute text.
Before you put your document on a web server so that others can see it, you
+ should first check the document's HTML formatting to make sure it
+ conforms to web standards. Documents containing validated HTML are less
+ likely to cause problems when viewed by different browsers. Just visually
+ checking your web pages in the browser doesn't ensure that your document
+ will appear correctly when viewed in other web browsers.
+
+
Composer provides a convenient way for you to check that your document
+ conforms to W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) HTML standards. Composer uses
+ the W3C HTML Validation Service, which checks your document's HTML
+ syntax for compliance with HTML 4.01 standards. This service also provides
+ information on how to correct errors.
+
+
Note: You must be connected to the Internet to use this
+ feature.
+
+
To validate your document's HTML syntax:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu, and choose Validate HTML. If you have unsaved
+ changes, Composer asks you to save them before proceeding.
+
When the W3C HTML Validation Service page appears, click Browse
+ and locate the file on your hard disk that you want to validate.
Typically, you won't need to change the editing mode from the default
+ (Normal). However, if you want to work with the document's HTML source
+ code, you may want to change editing modes.
+
+
Composer allows you to quickly switch between four editing modes or views.
+ Each editing mode allows you to continue working on your document, but
+ displays varying levels of HTML tags (and tag icons).
+
+
Before you choose an editing mode:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Show/Hide, and then make sure there is a
+ checkmark next to Edit Mode Toolbar.
+
+
+
The Edit Mode toolbar has four tabs:
+
+
+
Normal: Choose this editing mode to see how the document
+ will look online while you are creating it. Choose this mode to
+ show table borders and named anchor icons. All other HTML tag icons
+ are hidden.
+
HTML Tags: Choose this mode to show all HTML tag
+ icons.
+
<HTML> Source: Choose this mode to view and edit
+ the document as unformatted HTML source code. When you save the
+ document, the Normal mode reappears.
+
Preview: Choose this mode to display and edit the
+ document exactly as it would appear in a browser window, except
+ that links and JavaScript functions will not be active.
+
+
+
Note: JavaScript functions, frames, links, Java,
+ embedded objects and animated GIF files are not active in any of
+ the editing modes. To display these items in their active
+ state, click the Browse button on the Composition toolbar to
+ load the page into a browser window.
This section describes how to modify properties that apply to an entire
+ table as well as the rows, columns, or individual cells within a table. If
+ you are not currently viewing the Table Properties dialog box, follow these
+ steps:
+
+
+
Select the table, or click anywhere inside it.
+
Click the Table button
+ on the
+ toolbar, or open the Table menu and choose Table Properties. The Table
+ Properties dialog box contains two tabs: Table and Cells.
+
Click the Table tab to edit these properties:
+
+
Size: Use this to specify the number of rows and
+ columns. Enter the width of the table and then choose % of
+ window or pixels. If you specify width as a percentage, the
+ table's width changes whenever the Composer window's or
+ browser window's width changes.
+
Borders and Spacing: Use this to specify, in pixels,
+ the border line width, the space between cells, and the cell padding
+ (the space between the contents of the cell and its border).
+
+
Note: Composer uses a dotted outline to display
+ tables with a zero border; the dotted line disappears when the page
+ is viewed in a browser.
+
+
Table Alignment: Use this to align the table within
+ the page. Choose an option from the drop-down list.
+
Caption: Choose the caption placement from the
+ drop-down list.
+
Background Color: Use this to choose a color for
+ the table background, or leave it as transparent.
+
+
+
To apply additional attributes or JavaScript events, click Advanced Edit
+ to display the Advanced
+ Property Editor.
+
+
Click Apply to preview your changes without closing the dialog box, or
+ click OK to confirm them.
+
+
+
To view, change, or add properties for one or more cells:
+
+
+
Select the row, column, or cell, then open the Table menu and choose
+ Table Properties. The Table Properties dialog box appears.
+
Click the Cells tab to edit the following properties:
+
+
Selection: Choose Cell, Row, or Column from the
+ drop-down list. Click Previous or Next to move through rows, columns,
+ or cells.
+
Size: Type a number for Height and Width, and then
+ choose % of table or pixels.
+
Content Alignment: Select a vertical and horizontal
+ alignment type for the text or data inside each cell.
+
Cell Style: Select Header from the drop-down list
+ for column or row headers (which centers and bolds the text in the
+ cell); otherwise choose Normal.
+
Text Wrap: Select Don't wrap from the
+ drop-down list to keep text from wrapping to the next line unless you
+ insert a paragraph break. Otherwise, choose Wrap.
+
Background Color: Select a color for the cell
+ background or leave it as transparent.
+
+
Note: To apply additional attributes or JavaScript
+ events, click Advanced Edit to display the
+ Advanced Property
+ Editor
+
+
+
+
+
Click Apply to preview your changes without closing the dialog box, or
+ click OK to confirm them.
+
+
+
Tip: To change the text color or background color of one
+ or more selected cells or the entire table, select the cells or click
+ anywhere in the table and then click the text color or background color
+ icon in the Format toolbar.
+
+
Tip: To change the color of cells to the color last used,
+ select the cell, then press Shift and click on the background color picker.
+ This is useful when you want to use one color for individual cells.
Composer allows you to quickly add or delete one or more cells, columns,
+ or rows in a table. In addition, you can set options that allow you to
+ maintain the original rectangular structure or layout of the table while
+ you perform editing tasks.
+
+
To add a cell, row, or column to your table:
+
+
+
Click inside the table where you want to add a cell (or cells).
+
Open the Table menu and then choose Insert.
+
Choose one of the cell groupings. (You can also insert a new table
+ within a table cell.)
+
+
+
To delete a cell, row, or column:
+
+
+
Click a row, column, or cell to place the insertion point. Or,
+ select neighboring cells to delete more than one row at a time. To
+ select neighboring cells, drag over the cells you want to select.
+ To select individual cells in a table, hold down the
+ CmdCtrl key and click
+ on the cells you want to select.
+
Open the Table menu and choose Delete.
+
Choose the item you want to delete.
+
+
+
To join (or merge) a cell with the cell on its right:
+
+
+
Click inside the cell on the left, open the Table menu, and
+ choose Join with Cell to the Right.
+
+
+
To join (or merge) adjacent cells:
+
+
+
Select adjacent cells by dragging over them.
+
Open the Table menu, and choose Join Selected Cells.
+
+
+
To split a joined cell back into two or more cells:
+
+
+
Click inside the joined cell, open the Table menu, and then
+ choose Split Cell. Composer puts the entire contents of the joined
+ cell into the first of the two cells.
+
+
+
Refer to Selecting Table Elements
+ for information on how to select non-adjacent cells, rows, and
+ columns.
+
+
Changing the Default Table
+ Editing Behavior
+
+
By default, when you delete one or more cells, Composer preserves the
+ table's structure by adding cells at the end of a row, wherever
+ needed. This allows you to delete one or more cells but still maintain
+ the table's original rectangular layout, or structure. Otherwise,
+ deleting cells can result in a table with empty spaces, or whose outline
+ appears irregular due to an uneven number of cells.
+
+
To change the default table editing behavior, begin from the Composer
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu, choose Preferences, and then choose
+ Composer.
+
Under Editing, set the following preference:
+
+
Make sure that Maintain table layout when inserting or
+ deleting cells is checked to ensure that you don't get an
+ irregularly shaped table.
You can use one of two ways to quickly select a table, cell, or group of
+ cells:
+
+
+
Click in the table, open the Table menu, choose Select, and then choose
+ an item from the submenu. For example, to select a table, click anywhere
+ inside the table, open the Table menu, choose Select, and then choose
+ Table.
+
Or, you can use the mouse as a selection tool:
+
+
To select a group of adjacent cells: click in a cell, and then
+ drag to select the cells you want. Drag the mouse left or right to
+ select a row; up or down to select a column.
+
To select non-adjacent cells: press Cmd
+ Ctrl and then click inside a cell. Keep
+ pressing CmdCtrl
+ as you click to select additional cells.
+
To extend a selection to include adjacent cells: click inside a
+ cell and then drag over additional cells to extend the selection.
+
To select one or more adjacent columns or rows: drag up or down
+ to select the first column or row, and then drag left or right to
+ select additional adjacent columns or rows. Press Shift
+ and drag to the right to select an entire row. Press Shift
+ and drag up or down to select an entire column.
Select the text that you want to convert into a table. Keep in mind that
+ Composer creates a new table row for each paragraph in the selection.
+
Open the Table menu and choose Create Table from Selection. You see the
+ Convert to Table dialog box.
+
Choose the character Composer uses to separate the selection into
+ columns, or specify a different character to use. If you choose Space as
+ the separator for columns, choose whether or not you want Composer to
+ ignore multiple space and treat them as one space.
+
Leave Delete separator character checked to have Composer remove
+ the separator character when it converts the text into a table. If you
+ don't want Composer to delete the separator character, uncheck this
+ option.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Note: Text formatting is removed when the selected text
+ is converted to a table.
You can insert GIF, JPEG, BMP, and PNG (Portable Network Graphics) images
+ into your web page. You can also use them to
+ create links. When you insert an image,
+ Composer saves a reference to the image in your page.
+
+
Note: If you plan to publish your pages to the web,
+ it's best not to use BMP images in your pages.
+
+
Tip: It's best to first save or publish your page
+ before you insert images into it. This allows Composer to automatically
+ use relative references to images once you insert them.
+
+
To insert an image:
+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point where you want the image to
+ appear.
+
Click the Image button
+
+ on the toolbar, or open the Insert menu and choose Image. You see the
+ Image Properties dialog box.
+
Type the location and filename of the image file, or click Choose File
+ to search for an image file on your hard drive or network.
+
Type a simple description of your image as the alternate text that will
+ appear in text-only browsers (as well as other browsers) when an image is
+ loading or when image loading is disabled.
+
+
Alternatively, you can choose not to include alternate text.
+
+
If needed, click other tabs so you can adjust the settings (for
+ example, alignment) in the
+ Image Properties dialog box.
+
+
+
Tip: To quickly insert an image: Drag and drop it onto
+ your page.
+
+
Tip: To insert a line break after all images in a
+ paragraph, choose Break Below Images from the Insert menu.
Once you've inserted an image into your page, you can edit its
+ properties and customize the layout in your page, such as the height,
+ width, spacing, and text alignment. If you are not currently viewing
+ the Image Properties dialog box, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Double-click the image, or select it and click the Image button
+ on the toolbar
+ to display the Image Properties dialog box.
+
Click the Location tab to edit these properties:
+
+
Image Location: Type the filename and location of
+ the image file. Click Choose File to search for an image file on your
+ hard drive or network.
+
URL is relative to page location: If checked,
+ Composer converts the URL to be relative to the page's location.
+ This is especially useful if you plan to publish your pages on a web
+ server so that others can view them. Using relative URLs allows you
+ to keep all your linked files in the same place relative to each other,
+ regardless of their location on your hard disk or a web server.
+
+
Unchecking this box causes Composer to convert the URL to a full
+ (absolute) URL. You typically use absolute URLs when linking to
+ images on other web servers (not stored locally on your hard
+ disk).
+
+
If you have never saved or published the page, you must first save
+ the page in order to enable this checkbox. (This checkbox is not
+ available if you open the Image Properties dialog box in a message
+ compose window.)
+
+
Attach this image to the message: If checked,
+ the image is attached to the message you are sending. If unchecked, a
+ link to the image location is inserted instead. (This checkbox is only
+ available if you open the Image Properties dialog box in a message
+ compose window.)
+
Alternate Text: Enter text that will display in
+ place of the original image; for example, a caption or a brief
+ description of the image. It's a good practice to specify
+ alternate text for readers who use text-only web browsers or who have
+ image loading turned off.
+
Don't use alternate text: Choose this option
+ if the image does not require alternate text or if you don't want
+ to include it.
+
+
+
Click the Dimensions tab to edit these properties:
+
+
Actual Size: Select this option to undo any changes
+ you've made to the dimensions and return the image to its original
+ size.
+
Custom Size: Select this option and specify the new
+ height and width, in pixels or as a percentage. This setting
+ doesn't affect the original image file, just the image inserted
+ in your page.
+
Constrain: If you change the image size, it's
+ a good idea to select this in order to maintain the image's aspect
+ ratio (so that it doesn't appear distorted). If you choose this
+ option, then you only need to change the height or width, but not
+ both.
+
+
+
Click the Appearance Tab to edit these properties:
+
+
Spacing: Specify the amount of space surrounding
+ the image; between the image and adjoining text. You can also put a
+ solid black border around the image and specify its width in pixels.
+ Specify zero for no border.
+
Align Text to Image: If you've placed your
+ image next to any text, select an alignment icon to indicate how you
+ want text positioned relative to the image.
+
Image Map: Click Remove to remove any image map
+ settings.
+
+
+
Click the Link tab to edit these properties:
+
+
Enter a web page location: If you want to define
+ a link for this image, enter the URL of a remote or local page, or
+ select a named anchor or heading from the drop-down list. Click Choose
+ File to search for a file on your hard drive or network.
+
URL is relative to page location: If checked,
+ Composer converts the URL to be relative to the page's location.
+ This is especially useful if you plan to publish your pages to a web
+ server so that others can view them. Using relative URLs allows you to
+ keep all your linked files in the same place relative to each other,
+ regardless of their location on your hard disk or a web server.
+
+
Unchecking this box causes Composer to convert the URL to a full
+ (absolute) URL. You typically use absolute URLs when linking to files
+ on other web servers (not stored locally on your hard disk).
+
+
If you have unsaved changes, you must first save the page in order
+ to enable this checkbox. (This checkbox is not available if you open
+ the Image Properties dialog box in a message compose window.)
+
+
Show border around linked image: If checked,
+ displays the link highlight color around the image.
+
+
+
To apply additional attributes or JavaScript events, click Advanced Edit
+ to display the
+ Advanced Property Editor.
+
Use the Page Properties dialog box to enter properties such as the title,
+ author, and description of the document you're currently working on.
+ This information is useful if you plan to use the page on a website, since
+ search engines use this type of information to index your page. You can view
+ this information from the browser window by opening the View menu and
+ choosing Page Info.
+
+
+
Open the Format menu and choose Page Title and Properties.
+
Edit any of the following properties:
+
+
Title: Type the text you want to appear as the
+ window title when someone views the page through a browser. This
+ is how most web search tools locate web pages, so choose a title
+ that conveys what your page is about.
+
Author: Type the name of the person who created the
+ document. This information is helpful to readers who locate the
+ document by using a web search tool to search on name.
+
+
Tip: If you enter the Author name in
+ Composer's preferences, then
+ you won't have to enter it each time you create a new page.
+
+
Description: Enter a brief description of the
+ document's contents.
You can change the background color or specify a background
+ image for the page you're currently working on. These choices
+ affect the way text and links in your page appear to people viewing
+ the page through a browser.
+
+
To set the colors and background for the current page, begin
+ from the Composer window:
+
+
+
Open the Format menu and choose Page Colors and Background.
+
Edit any of the following properties:
+
+
Reader's default colors: Select this if you
+ want your page to use the color settings from the viewer's browser
+ for text and links.
+
Use custom colors: Select this if you want to
+ specify the colors of text and links. For each element, select a color
+ from the Color selection dialog. Sample output for each type of link
+ appears in the pane on the right.
+
Background image: Select this if you want the
+ background of your page to be an image. Type the name of the image
+ file or click Choose File to locate the image file on your hard
+ drive or network.
+
+
Note: Background images are tiled and override
+ background color selections.
+
+
URL is relative to page location: If checked,
+ Composer converts the URL to be relative to the page's location.
+ This is especially useful if you plan to publish your pages on a web
+ server so that others can view them.
+
+
Using relative URLs allows you to keep all your linked files in
+ the same place relative to each other, regardless of their location
+ on your hard disk or a web server.
+
+
Deselecting this option causes Composer to convert the URL to a
+ full (absolute) URL. You typically use absolute URLs when linking
+ to images on other web servers (not stored locally on your hard
+ disk).
+
+
If you have unsaved changes, you must first save the page in
+ order to enable this checkbox.
+
+
+
+
+
+
Note: To apply additional attributes or JavaScript events,
+ click Advanced Edit to display the
+ Advanced Property
+ Editor.
To create a link within the same page, for example a link that the reader
+ can use to jump from one section to another, you must create an
+ anchor (target location), and then create a link that points to the
+ anchor. Anchors are also called named anchors. To create an anchor,
+ follow these steps:
+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point at the beginning of a line where you
+ want to create an anchor, or select some text.
+
Open the Insert menu and choose Named Anchor. You see the Named Anchor
+ Properties dialog box.
+
Type a unique name for the anchor in the Anchor Name field (up to 30
+ characters). If you include spaces, they will be converted to underscores
+ ( _ ). If you selected some text in step 1, this box already contains a
+ name.
+
Click OK. An anchor icon appears in your document to mark the
+ anchor's location:
+
+
+
+
To create the link on which readers can click to jump to the object:
+
+
+
Select the text or image that you want to link to the anchor.
+
Click the Link button or open the Insert menu and choose Link. You see
+ the Link Properties dialog box.
+
+
If you're creating a link to an HTML file on your computer,
+ click Choose File to locate it.
+
If you're creating a link to a named anchor (target), select
+ it from the list of the anchors currently available in the page.
+
If you're creating a link to a level heading (for example,
+ Heading 1 - Heading 6), select it from the list of headings currently
+ available in the page.
+
+
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Note: To test the link you just created, open the File
+ menu and choose Browse Page, then click the link.
+
+
Tip: If you did not first create named anchors, you can
+ use the Link dialog box to create links to headings that already occur in
+ the page.
You can create links from your page to local pages on your own computer or
+ on your workplace's network, or to remote pages on the Internet.
+
+
Tip: It's best to first save or publish your page
+ before you create links to other pages. This allows Composer to automatically
+ use relative references for links once you create them.
+
+
To create a link to another page:
+
+
+
Click to place the insertion point where you want to create a link, or
+ select the text or image that you want to link to the anchor.
+
Click the Link button. You see the Link Properties dialog box.
+
Define your link:
+
+
Link text: If you've already selected an image
+ file or text before clicking the Link button, the selected text or
+ file will be entered here. Otherwise, you must enter the text that you
+ want to use as the link.
+
Link Location: Type the local path and filename or
+ remote URL of the page you want to link to. If you're not sure of
+ the path and filename for a local file, click Choose File to look for
+ it on your hard disk or network. For remote URLs, you can copy the URL
+ from the browser's Location Bar. Alternatively, you can select a
+ named anchor or a heading in the current page that you want to link
+ to.
+
URL is relative to page location: If checked,
+ Composer converts the URL to be relative to the page's location.
+ This is especially useful if you plan to publish your pages to a web
+ server so that others can view them. Using relative URLs allows you to
+ keep all your linked files in the same place relative to each other,
+ regardless of their location on your hard disk or a web server.
+
+
Deselecting this option causes Composer to convert the URL to a full
+ (absolute) URL. You typically use absolute URLs when linking to pages
+ on other web servers (not stored locally on your hard disk).
+
+
If you have unsaved changes, you must first save the page in order
+ to enable this checkbox. (This checkbox is not available if you open
+ the Link Properties dialog box in a message compose window.)
+
+
Attach the source of this link to the message: If
+ checked, the source of the specified link is added as an attachment to
+ the message you are sending. If unchecked, just a link to the location
+ is inserted instead. (This checkbox is only available if you open the
+ Link Properties dialog box in a message compose window.)
+
+
+
To apply additional attributes or JavaScript events, click Advanced Edit
+ to display the
+ Advanced Property Editor.
+
+
Click OK.
+
To test the link you just created, click the Browse button and then click
+ the link to make sure it works as expected.
+
+
+
Tip: You can copy a link quickly by clicking and dragging
+ the link from another window and then dropping it onto your page. For
+ example, you can click and drag a link from a web page, bookmark, or Mail
+ window and drop it onto your page. You can also right-click
+ or, if you have a one-button mouse, Ctrl-click a link on a
+ web page and choose Copy Link Location from the menu. Then you can paste the
+ link location into the Link Location field in the Link Properties dialog
+ box.
You can make images, such as JPEG, GIF, or PNG files, behave like links in
+ your pages. When the reader clicks a linked image, the browser window
+ displays the page that the image is linked to.
+
+
To make an image behaving like a link:
+
+
+
Select an image on your page.
+
Click the Link button
+
+ on the toolbar, or open the Insert menu and choose Link.
If your pages exist only on your local hard disk, you can browse your pages,
+ but no one else can. Composer lets you publish your pages to a remote
+ computer called a web server.
+
+
When you publish your pages to a web server, Composer copies (uploads) your
+ pages to a computer that lets others browse your pages. Most ISPs provide
+ space on their web servers for web page publishing. To find a web server
+ where you can publish your pages, ask your ISP, help desk, or system
+ administrator.
Tip: It's best to first save or publish your page
+ before you insert links or images into it. This allows Composer to
+ automatically use relative references for links and images once you insert
+ them.
+
+
To publish a document:
+
+
+
Open the HTML document that you want to publish, or create a new Composer
+ document.
+
When you're ready to publish the document remotely, click the
+ Publish button.
+
+
If you have published this document before, Composer remembers the
+ document's publishing settings and starts publishing the document.
+ While publishing is in progress, Composer displays a publishing status
+ dialog box.
+
+
If you have never published this document before, Composer displays
+ the Settings tab in the Publish Page dialog box so you can enter
+ information about the document's remote publishing location. See
+ Publish Page - Settings for more
+ information. When you're done entering information, click Publish.
+
+
If you have never saved the document, Composer displays the Publish
+ tab in the Publish Page dialog box, so you can enter the
+ document's filename. See
+ Publish Page - Publish for more
+ information. After entering the filename, click Publish.
+
+
+
To browse your published page, click the Browse button. Test the
+ page's links and make sure there are no missing images.
+
Continue editing the page as necessary. When you're ready to update
+ the remote page with your changes, click the Publish button.
+
+
+
When you publish a document for the first time, Composer changes the
+ document's file:/// URL to an http:// URL to indicate
+ that you are now editing the published document. If you want to save the
+ document locally (on your computer's hard disk), click the Save button.
+ You'll be prompted to choose a filename and location on your hard disk
+ for the document.
Tips for Avoiding
+ Broken Links or Missing Images
+
+
+
Make sure your Composer filenames end with the .html or .htm file
+ extension. Make sure your image filenames end with the .JPG, .GIF, or .PNG
+ file extension. Don't use spaces or other special symbols in your
+ filenames. Keep your filenames short and only use lowercase or uppercase
+ letters and numbers.
+
If your images appear as broken links when you browse a document on the
+ web server, you may have forgotten to include the images when you
+ published. Open the File menu, and choose Publish As to display the Publish
+ Page dialog box. In the Publish tab, make sure you check Include images
+ and other files and then click Publish.
In a Composer window, open the File menu, and choose Recent Pages, then
+ select the document from the list.
Alternatively, browse to the location
+ of the document you want to update by entering the document's HTTP
+ address (the document's web address) in the browser's
+ Location Bar.
+
Edit the document as necessary.
+
When you're ready to update the remote page with your changes, click
+ Publish in Composer's toolbar.
+
+
+
Tip: To delete a page or image you've published on a
+ web server, you must use an FTP (File Transfer
+ Protocol) program. You also must use an FTP program if you want to create
+ subdirectories or to rename files on the web server. Ask your service
+ provider if they recommend a particular FTP program. You can usually find
+ information on FTP programs in the Help or Support sections of your service
+ provider's website. FTP programs are also available from shareware sites
+ such as ZDNet Downloads.
To change a document's filename or publishing location:
+
+
+
In a Composer window, open the File menu, and choose Recent Pages, then
+ select the document from the list.
+
+
Alternatively, browse to the location of the document you want to update
+ by entering the document's HTTP address (the document's web
+ address) in the browser's Location Bar.
+
+
Edit the document as necessary.
+
Open Composer's File menu and choose Publish As. Composer displays
+ the Publish tab in the Publish Page dialog box.
+
Enter a different page title, if necessary.
+
Enter a different filename for the page, if necessary.
+
From the Site Name list, choose the publishing location you want to use.
+ To set up a new publishing location, click New Site. See
+ Publish Page - Settings for more
+ information.
+
Click Publish to save the document to the new location.
If you plan to publish documents to more than one remote location, you can
+ set up Composer to save the publishing information for each remote site you
+ use, so that you don't have to enter it each time you want to
+ publish.
+
+
To create a new publishing site, begin from a Composer window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Publishing Site Settings. Composer
+ displays the Publish Settings dialog box.
+
Click New Site.
+
For Site Name, enter the nickname by which you want to refer to
+ this publishing site.
+
+
For example, if you will use the new site to publish documents
+ related to the Meteor project, you might want to use the site
+ name Meteor. Site names remind you about the types of documents
+ you publish at each site.
+
+
For Publishing address, enter the complete URL provided to
+ you by your ISP, system administrator, or web hosting service. This
+ URL must begin with either ftp:// or http://.
+
+
The publishing address specifies the location where documents are
+ published (uploaded) at this site. If you are not sure what to enter,
+ ask your ISP or system administrator.
+
+
For HTTP address of your home page, enter the complete URL
+ that you would enter in the browser to view pages at this
+ site. Do not include a filename or subdirectory as part of the URL.
+
+
This URL must always begin with http://. In some cases,
+ this URL is the same as the publishing address. If you are not sure
+ what to enter, ask your ISP or system administrator, or else leave
+ it blank.
+
+
For user name, enter the user name you use to log in to your ISP
+ or web hosting service.
+
For password, enter the password for your user name.
+
Select Save Password to save your password securely using
+ Password Manager so that you don't have to enter it each time you
+ publish pages at this site.
If you have set up more than one publishing site, but you typically use
+ only one site for most of your publishing needs, you can designate the site
+ you use most often as the default publishing site. Composer will use the
+ default publishing site for all documents that you publish, unless you
+ specifically choose an alternate site.
+
+
Regardless of how many sites you've set up, you can always publish a
+ document to a different site by choosing Publish As from Composer's
+ File menu. See
+ Changing the Filename
+ or Publishing Location for more information.
+
+
To choose the default publishing site, begin from a Composer
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, and choose Publishing Site Settings.
+ Composer displays the Publish Settings dialog box.
+
Select a publishing site from the list.
+
+
If you only have one publishing site set up, Composer uses that
+ one as the default site.
Deleting a publishing site removes the site's settings from Composer.
+ If you later wish to publish to the site, you must re-enter the site's
+ settings.
+
+
To delete a publishing site's settings, begin from a Composer
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, and choose Publishing Site Settings. Composer
+ displays the Publish Settings dialog box.
+
Select a publishing site from the list.
+
Click Remove Site.
+
+
Composer only removes the site's settings; the remote site itself
+ is not affected.
If one or more of your files fail to publish, the Publishing
+ Status dialog box displays an error message that can help you
+ determine what went wrong and how to fix it.
+
+
If you are still unable to publish a file, save the file to your
+ hard disk by opening Composer's File menu, and choosing Save. You
+ can then open the file at a later time to try to publish it. To
+ quickly locate the file later, open Composer's File menu, and
+ choose Recent Pages.
Close the Publishing Status dialog box, if it is open.
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Publishing Site Settings.
+
In the Publish Settings dialog box, confirm that the site settings are
+ correct for the site you are trying to publish to. If you're not
+ sure, check with your ISP or web hosting service.
+
+
Verify that you correctly entered the publishing
+ settings: You may have accidentally mis-typed one of the
+ settings.
+
Verify that you entered the correct publishing
+ address: Web hosting services or ISPs may refer to the
+ publishing address as the server name, the hostname, or
+ the server/host. They often specify the publishing location as
+ ftp.myisp.com/username, where username is your
+ user name.
+
+
For the publishing address to be correct, you must precede the
+ publishing location with either ftp:// or http://.
+ For example, the correct publishing address for the above-mentioned
+ site would be ftp://ftp.myisp.com/username.
+
+
+
+
+
+
Checking Your Filenames
+
+
Examine the names of any files that failed to publish. Make sure that the
+ filenames:
+
+
+
Use only numbers or lowercase or uppercase letters. While it's
+ acceptable to create filenames that use uppercase letters, you can avoid
+ potential errors in later locating the published file if you only use
+ lowercase letters in your filenames.
+
+
When you publish files to a web server, filenames become
+ case-sensitive on the web server. It may be harder for you to remember
+ files names that use only uppercase letters or that use a mix of
+ uppercase and lowercase letters.
+
+
For example, when you try to locate a published file by typing the
+ filename's web address into the browser's Location Bar, you
+ must enter the filename exactly as you created it, using the same
+ combination of uppercase and lowercase letters.
+
+
Don't use punctuation characters or spaces. Underscores ( _ )
+ or hyphens ( - ) are OK.
+
End with .html or .htm (for Composer filenames).
+
Use less than 32 characters.
+
+
+
Fixing Publishing Errors
+
+
If one or more of your files fails to publish, look at the messages
+ Composer displays in the Publishing Status area of the Publishing dialog box.
+ You can use these error messages to help determine what went wrong and what
+ to do to fix the problem.
Error Description: One or more image files or CSS files
+ failed to publish because Composer could not find them. Some typical
+ reasons might be:
+
+
+
The file location you typed is incorrect.
+
The file's location on the web is not accessible.
+
The file's location was changed or the file was deleted or
+ moved to another location.
+
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Look for broken images in the page you are trying to publish. Broken
+ images will appear with this icon
+ in the
+ page. To correct the image's address, double-click the broken
+ image to display the Image Properties dialog box so you can enter the
+ correct address.
+
Remove the broken image from the page by selecting it (click once on
+ the image), and then pressing Backspace or Delete
+ on your keyboard.
+
If the image is unavailable because the server where the image resides
+ is inaccessible, try publishing the page at a later time.
+
If the missing file is a CSS file, you must first verify the correct
+ location of the CSS file. To fix the file's address in Composer,
+ click the HTML Source tab and edit the file's location in the HTML
+ source code. You should only edit the HTML source if you are familiar
+ with HTML tags.
+
+
+
+
+
Error Message:
+
+
+ The subdirectory directory name doesn't exist on this
+ site or the filename filename is already in use by another
+ subdirectory
+
or
+ The filename filename is already in use by another
+ subdirectory
+
+
+
Error Description: You specified the name of a remote
+ subdirectory that does not exist at the publishing site. Composer can only
+ publish to a remote subdirectory that already exists at the publishing
+ location. Or, you specified a filename that is identical to the name of an
+ existing subdirectory at the publishing site.
+
+
For example, in the Publish Page dialog box, under the Publish tab:
+
+
+
for Site subdirectory for this page, you may have typed the name
+ of a subdirectory that does not exist at the publishing location.
+
you checked Include images and other files, and then you typed
+ the name of a subdirectory that does not exist at the publishing
+ location.
+
one of the files you are attempting to publish has the same name as a
+ subdirectory at the publishing site.
+
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Use a separate FTP program if you want to create, rename, or delete
+ subdirectories at the publishing site. Ask your service provider if they
+ recommend a particular FTP program. You can usually find information on
+ FTP programs in the Help or Support sections of your service
+ provider's website. FTP programs are also available from shareware
+ sites such as ZDNet Downloads.
+
Don't use subdirectory names that end with .html or
+ .htm. Only your Composer filenames should end with .html
+ or .htm.
+
Subdirectory names are case-sensitive, so be sure to enter a
+ subdirectory name exactly as it appears at the publishing location.
+
+
+
+
+
Error Message:
+
+
+ The server is not available. Check your connection and try again
+ later.
+
+
+
Error Description: This error can have many causes. For
+ example:
+
+
+
Your publishing site settings may not be correct.
+
Your Internet connection may have been lost.
+
Your modem or other equipment that you use to connect to the Internet
+ might not be functioning correctly.
+
The web server that you are trying to publish to might be unavailable
+ due to a technical problem or to an unknown circumstance.
+
Your ISP or web hosting service may be experiencing technical
+ problems.
+
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Verify that your publishing settings are correct and that you entered
+ them correctly. See
+ Verifying Your Publishing
+ Settings for more information.
+
Make sure your Internet connection is working by attempting to view a
+ web page using the browser. For example, confirm that you can
+ successfully view the page http://www.mozilla.org.
+
If your Internet connection is not working, verify that all hardware,
+ telephone connections, modems, and network connections are functioning
+ properly.
+
Use the browser to try to view a page at the website you are
+ attempting to publish to. If you can successfully view other websites but
+ cannot view a page at the publishing site, your ISP or web hosting
+ service may be experiencing technical problems.
+
Try publishing again later. Your ISP, web hosting service, or the web
+ server may be experiencing temporary technical difficulties.
+
+
+
+
+
Error Message:
+
+
+ You do not have permission to publish to this location.
+
+
+
Error Description: You are attempting to publish to a
+ location that you are not authorized to use. You can only publish to sites
+ where you have been granted access by your ISP or web hosting service.
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Verify that you entered the correct user name and password in the
+ Publishing Site Settings dialog box, or in the Publish tab of the
+ Publish dialog box.
+
Contact your ISP to find out where you can publish your pages at their
+ site.
+
Find a web hosting service that you can use to publish your pages. In
+ the browser, search for web hosting.
+ You are currently offline. Click the icon near the lower-right corner
+ of any window to go online.
+
+
+
Error Description: You are attempting to publish, but
+ your &brandShortName; Internet connection is currently in the
+ offline state. Your Internet connection must be in the online
+ state (connected to the Internet) in order to publish your pages.
+
+
Verify that your Internet connection is currently offline by looking at
+ the online/offline icon in the lower right corner of any &brandShortName;
+ window. If you are currently offline, the icon appears as
+ .
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Click the online/offline icon to go online. In the online state, the
+ icon should look like this:
+ .
+
Make sure your Internet connection is working by attempting to view a
+ web page using the browser. For example, confirm that you can
+ successfully view the page http://www.mozilla.org.
+
+
+
+
+
Error Message:
+
+
+ There is not enough disk space available to save the file
+ filename.
+
+
+
Error Description: The remote web server's hard
+ disk is full, or you may have exceeded the amount of disk space allocated
+ to you by your ISP or web hosting service.
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Use a separate FTP program to delete unnecessary files at your
+ publishing site. Ask your service provider if they recommend a
+ particular FTP program. You can usually find information on FTP programs
+ in the Help or Support sections of your service provider's website.
+ FTP programs are also available from shareware sites such as ZDNet
+ Downloads.
+
Find out from your ISP or web hosting service about increasing your
+ disk space allocation, or switch to a different service that can satisfy
+ your needs.
+
If the web server is located at your company or school, contact the
+ network administrator to find out if you can publish to a different
+ location that has more disk space, or if you can request that
+ additional disk space be allocated to your current publishing
+ location.
+
+
+
+
+
Error Message:
+
+
+ The filename or subdirectory name is too long.
+
+
+
Error Description: The number of characters in the
+ filename or the subdirectory name is not supported by the web server
+ computer that you are trying to publish to.
+
+
Possible Solutions:
+
+
+
Limit the length of your filenames and subdirectory names to less than
+ 32 characters. Some operating systems do not support names longer than 32
+ characters.
The Publish Page - Publish tab lets you specify where you want
+ to publish a document. These settings apply to the current
+ document.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Publish Page - Publish tab,
+ follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Publish As. The Publish Page
+ dialog box appears.
+
Click the Publish tab.

+
Filename: Specifies the document's filename. Make
+ sure you include the .html or .htm extension in the filename.
+
+
Warning: If a file on the remote site you're
+ publishing to has the same filename as one you're uploading, the
+ newly uploaded file will replace the existing one. You will not be

Site subdirectory for this page: If you leave this
+ blank, Composer publishes the page to the main (root) publishing
+ directory at this site. If you want to publish the page to a remote
+ subdirectory that resides underneath the main publishing directory
+ at this site, enter the name of the subdirectory or choose it from
+ the list. Composer keeps track of the locations you type here, so
+ you can select from a list of remote locations you've previously
+ used. Keep in mind that subdirectory names are case-sensitive.
+
+
Note: The site subdirectory you choose must
+ already exist at the remote server.
+
+
Include images and other files: If checked,
+ Composer publishes any images and other files referenced by this
+ page. You can choose to publish these files to the same location as
+ the page, or else you can choose to publish these files into a
+ remote subdirectory that exists underneath the main publishing
+ directory.
+
+
+
Tip: To create remote subdirectories or delete
+ published pages or images, you must use an FTP (File Transfer
+ Protocol) program. Ask your service provider if they recommend a
+ particular FTP program. You can usually find information on FTP
+ programs in the Help or Support sections of your service provider's
+ website. FTP programs are also available from shareware sites such
+ as ZDNet Downloads.
The Publish Page - Settings tab lets you specify your login information for
+ the remote publishing site, as well as the publishing settings for the remote
+ site. These settings apply to the current document and any other files you
+ publish to this location.
+

Open the Edit menu and choose Publishing Site Settings.
+ Composer displays the Publish Settings dialog box.
+
+

+
New Site: Lets you specify settings for a new publishing
+ site. Composer adds the name of the new publishing site to the list

+
Set as Default: Sets the selected publishing site as the
+ default publishing site. Typically, the default publishing site is
+ the remote location that you most often use for publishing
+ documents. All documents you create or edit will be published to
+ the default publishing site, unless you specifically choose an
+ alternate site in the Publish Page dialog box.
+
+
To publish a document to a different remote location, open the
+ File menu and choose Publish As to choose a different publishing
+ destination.
+
+
Remove Site: Removes the selected site and its settings
+ from Composer.
+
Site Name: Specifies the name by which you want to refer
+ to this publishing site.

+ with either ftp:// or http://.
+
+
The publishing address specifies the location where documents
+ are published (uploaded) at this site. If you are not sure what to
+ enter, ask your ISP or system administrator.
+
+
HTTP address of your homepage: Specifies the HTTP
+ address of your publishing home directory. Do not include a
+ filename or subdirectory as part of the URL.
+
+
This URL must always begin with http://. In some cases,

Composer preferences allow you to specify settings for saving files and for
+ table editing. These settings apply to every document you create.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Composer preferences, follow these
+ steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Click the Composer category.
+
+
+
+
Maximum number of pages listed: Specify the maximum
+ number of pages that are listed under Recent Pages in the File menu.
+
Preserve original source formatting: Select this if you
+ want to preserve the original white space (extra lines, tabs, etc.) in the
+ HTML source code. Deselect this if you prefer Composer to indent and add
+ linebreaks to the code in order to make it more readable. This
+ preference does not affect how your pages appear in a browser
+ window.
+
Save images and other associated files when saving
+ pages: If checked, all images, JavaScript (JS), Cascading Style
+ Sheet (CSS), and other associated files are saved in the same location as
+ the document when the document is saved for the first time or when the
+ document is saved to a new location. If unchecked, only the HTML file is
+ saved.
+
+
For example, when editing a remote page, this setting ensures that all
+ related files associated with the remote page will be saved locally when
+ you save the page to your hard disk.
+
+
Always show Publish dialog when publishing pages: If
+ checked, Composer always displays the Publish Page dialog box when you
+ click the Publish button or choose Publish from the File menu. If not
+ checked, Composer only displays the Publish Page dialog box if it needs
+ more information in order to publish the page.
+
Maintain table layout when inserting or deleting cells:
+ Select this if you want Composer to always preserve the table's
+ layout (that is, keep it in a rectangular shape) by adding cells where
+ needed. If you deselect this option, when you delete one or more cells,
+ Composer removes the cell border as well, which can result in a table with
+ empty spaces, or an outline that appears irregular due to an uneven number
+ of cells.
+
Use CSS styles instead of HTML elements and attributes:
+ Enables the use of Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) formatting in your Composer
+ documents. With this preference enabled, Composer generates HTML 4.01
+ formatting with CSS inline styles for elements.
+
+
If this preference is not enabled, Composer generates HTML 4.01
+ formatting, but does not use CSS styles.
+
+
Compared to HTML, HTML with CSS formatting is more portable, more
+ maintainable, and more compatible when viewed with different browsers.
+ If you enable this preference and then edit a document created without
+ CSS, Composer replaces the edited elements with CSS styles.
+
+
If you enable CSS styles, you can choose a text highlight color for
+ selected text using the text highlight color button on the Format
+ toolbar. You can also choose a color background for any element on the
+ page. (These features are not available if this preference is not
+ enabled.)
+
+
ReturnEnter in a
+ paragraph always creates a new paragraph: If selected, a new
+ paragraph will be added everytime you press the Return
+ Enter key inside a paragraph. If
+ deselected, a linebreak will be added when you press the ReturnEnter key.
New page preferences allow you to specify settings for colors and
+ background images that apply to every document you create.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the New Page Settings, follow these
+ steps:

+ want your pages to use the color settings from the viewer's browser
+ for text and link elements.
+

+ specify the colors that are applied to text and link elements. Then for
+ each element, select a color by clicking the color button next to each
+ element.

+ file, or click Choose File to locate the image file on your hard disk or

You can choose a local application to handle any type. For some types, you
+ can also choose a web application to handle the type, choose
+ a plugin in &brandShortName; to
+ handle the type, or save the type on your computer.

+ Use other… from the menu and navigate to its location.
+
Choose a plugin by selecting it from the menu.
+
Save files of this type on your computer by selecting
+ Save File from the menu. If you have selected the
+ Automatically download files to specified download folder
+ preference in the Downloads panel, &brandShortName; will

+
Tell &brandShortName; to always ask what to do when
+ encountering this type. When you choose this option, a dialog will always be
+ shown when files of this type are accessed, and you can choose how to handle
+ that specific file from there.
+
+
+
Note: When a plugin is available to handle a type, and you
+ choose another handler for that type, &brandShortName; will only use your

+
Controlling Popups
+
+
What are Popups?
+
+
Pop-up windows, or popups, are windows that appear automatically and without
+ your permission. They vary in size, but usually don't cover the whole
+ screen. Some popups open on top of the current browser window, thus popping
+ up, while others appear underneath the browser (popunders).
+
+
&brandShortName; allows you to control both popups and popunders through the
+ Popup Windows
+ preferences panel. Since popup blocking is turned off by default, you
+ must enable it to prevent popups from appearing in the browser.
+
+
When blocking a popup, &brandShortName; can be set up to play a sound, as
+ well as display an icon
+ in the status bar. You can use this icon to add a website
+ you're viewing to an exceptions list so that the site is allowed to
+ again display popups.
+
+
Blocking popups may interfere with some websites: Some web
+ sites, including some banking sites, use popups for important features.
+ Blocking all popups disables such features. To allow specific websites to
+ use popups, while blocking all others, you can add specific websites to the
+ list of allowed sites. For more information, see
+ Privacy &
+ Security Preferences - Popup Windows.
+
+
Blocking popups doesn't always work: Although
+ &brandShortName; blocks most popups, some websites, even when blocked, may
+ use other methods to show popups.
+
+
Allowing popups from certain websites: After you've
+ enabled popup blocking, you can still allow specific sites to display popups.
+ Browse to the website, and then from the Tools menu, choose Popup Manager,
+ and then choose Allow Popups From This Site.
+
+
The next section describes how to control popups through preferences and
+ through the popup control icon.
+
+

+ appears, it remains visible until you visit another
+ website.
+
+
+
+

+ can use the popup control icon to quickly add a website to the list of
+ allowed websites. Click the icon
+ to open the list of allowed websites. The current website is
+ already filled in. Click Add and then click OK to confirm your addition.

+
Customizing &brandShortName;
+
+
You can customize &brandShortName; to better suit your needs using features
+ like Sidebar, bookmarks, and Tabbed Browsing.
+
+
This section describes the customizable aspects of &brandShortName;'s
+ browser component.
Sidebar is a customizable area in your browser where you can keep items
+ that you need to use all the time—the latest news and weather, your
+ address book, stock quotes, a calendar—and many other available
+ options. Sidebar presents these items to you in tabs that are continually
+ updated.
+
+
&brandShortName; comes with some Sidebar tabs already set up, but you can
+ customize Sidebar by adding, removing, and rearranging tabs.
To open Sidebar, press F9 or open the
+ View menu in the browser, choose Show/Hide, and then Sidebar from the
+ submenu.
+
+
Once Sidebar is opened, you can use its handle to close, open and resize
+ Sidebar's frame. Move the mouse pointer up and down along the left edge
+ of the &brandShortName; window. The pointer changes to a hand when it touches
+ the handle for Sidebar, as shown in the picture.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+

In the Customize Sidebar dialog box, select a tab from the list on the
+ left. Double-click the folders to open or close folders.
+
Click Add.
+
Continue adding as many tabs as you want.
+
Click OK to finish.
+
+
+
Note: If you add more than eight tabs to Sidebar,
+ &brandShortName; hides the remaining tabs to reduce clutter. To scroll
+ through the hidden tabs, click the down arrow button at the bottom of Sidebar
+ until you see the desired tab. Click the up arrow button to once again scroll
+ up.
+
+
Tips:
+
+
+

+ on the left side of the Customize Sidebar dialog box and click Preview.
+ After a few seconds, the tab displays in the Tab Preview pop-up
+ window.

+
Tip: To quickly turn off a Sidebar tab, right-click on its
+ name and choose Hide Tab.
Click Tabs at the top of Sidebar and select Customize Sidebar
+ from the menu.
+
Select an available tab from the list on the right.

The instructions vary depending on the source of the tab—in
+ addition to &brandShortName;, tab providers can be any company,
+ organization, or individual who uses the Internet.
+
+
After you follow the tab provider's instructions, close the
+ customization window (or follow the provider's instructions to close
+ it).
Tabbed Browsing lets you open more than one web page in a single window.
+ Each web page has its own tab across the top of a single browser window.
+ Each tab appears on the Tab Bar. For example, you can visit mozilla.org,
+ icq.com, and cnn.com within one window instead of three windows.
+

Tab Bar
+
+
+
+
You don't need to have several windows open to visit several web pages;
+ thus, freeing up more space on your desktop. Instead, you can open, close,
+ and reload web pages conveniently in one place without having to switch to
+ another window.
There are several ways to customize Tabbed Browsing. For example, you can
+ change your preferences to open new browser tabs from the Location Bar. You
+ can set up Tabbed Browsing in other ways too, such as loading new browser
+ tabs in the background so the first page is kept on top while the second page
+ is loading. To learn more about setting up Tabbed Browsing in
+ &brandShortName;, see
+ Browser Preferences
+ - Tabbed Browsing.
From the File menu: Open the File menu, choose New, and
+ then Browser Tab.
+
From the Tab Bar: If visible, click the new
+ tab icon
+
+ on the left side of the Tab Bar.
+
From a pop-up menu: If the Tab Bar is visible,
+ right-click on it, and choose New Tab from the pop.
+
+
+
Opening a Web Page Link in a Browser Tab:
+
+
+
From a pop-up menu: Right-click or, if
+ you have a one-button mouse, Ctrl-click on a web page
+ link and choose Open Link in New Tab.
+
From the Location Bar: Type a web page location in the
+ Location Bar and press Cmd
+ Ctrl+ReturnEnter.
+
+
Note: You must set your Tabbed Browsing preferences to
+ open a browser tab from the Location Bar. See
+ Browser
+ Preferences - Tabbed Browsing for more information.
+
+
+
+
Tips:
+
+
+
To quickly open a new browser tab, press
+ Cmd
+ Ctrl+T.
+
To reload one or all browser tabs, right-click or, if
+ you have a one-button mouse, Ctrl-click anywhere on the
+ Tab Bar and select Reload Tab or Reload All Tabs, respectively.
Tabs are displayed in the order you open them, which may not always be what
+ you want. To move a tab to a different location within a &brandShortName;
+ window, simply drag it there using your mouse. While you are dragging the
+ tab, &brandShortName; displays an indicator to show where the tab will be
+ moved. Alternately, you can use
+ keyboard
+ shortcuts to move tabs within a window if desired.

Browser Features
+
+
+

This glossary is provided for your information only,
+ and is not meant to be relied upon as a complete or authoritative description

+ the technologies described.
A stored web page
+ address (URL) that you can go to easily by clicking a
+ bookmark icon in the Personal Toolbar or
+ choosing the bookmark's name from the Bookmarks menu.
A collection of web page copies stored
+ on your computer's hard disk or in its random-access memory (RAM). The
+ browser accumulates these copies as you browse the Web. When you click a link
+ or type a URL to fetch a particular web page for which the
+ cache already contains a copy, the browser compares the cached copy to the
+ original. If there have been no changes, the browser uses the cached copy
+ rather than refetching the original, saving processing and download
+ time.
+
+
certificate
The digital equivalent of an ID card.
+ A certificate specifies the name of an individual, company, or other entity
+ and certifies that a public key, which is included in the certificate,
+ belongs to that entity. When you digitally sign a message or other data, the
+ digital signature for that message is created with the aid of the private key
+ that corresponds to the public key in your certificate. A certificate is
+ issued and digitally signed by a certificate
+ authority (CA). A certificate's validity can be verified by checking
+ the CA's digital signature. Also called
+ digital ID, digital passport, public-key certificate, X.509 certificate, and
+ security certificate. See also public-key
+ cryptography.
+
+
certificate authority (CA)
A service
+ that issues a certificate after verifying the identity of the person or
+ entity the certificate is intended to identify. A CA also renews and revokes
+ certificates and generates a list of revoked certificates at regular
+ intervals. CAs can be independent vendors or a person or organization using
+ certificate-issuing server software (such as &brandShortName; Certificate
+ Management System). See also certificate,
+ CRL (certificate revocation list).
+
+
certificate backup password
A
+ password that protects a certificate that you are backing up or have
+ previously backed up. Certificate Manager asks you to set this password when
+ you back up a certificate, and requests it when you attempt to restore a
+ certificate that has previously been backed up.
A hierarchical series of
+ certificates signed by successive certificate authorities. A CA certificate
+ identifies a certificate authority (CA)
+ and is used to sign certificates issued by that authority. A CA certificate
+ can in turn be signed by the CA certificate of a parent CA and so on up to a
+ root CA.
+
+
certificate fingerprint
+ A unique number associated with a certificate. The number is not part of
+ the certificate itself but is produced by applying a mathematical function to
+ the contents of the certificate. If the contents of the certificate change,
+ even by a single character, the function produces a different number.
+ Certificate fingerprints can therefore be used to verify that certificates
+ have not been tampered with.
+
+
Certificate
+ Manager
The part of the browser that allows you to view and manage
+ certificates. To view the main Certificate Manager window: Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu, choose Preferences, click Privacy and Security, and then click Manage
+ Certificates.
+
+
certificate renewal
The process of
+ renewing a certificate that is about to
+ expire.
+
+
certificate verification
When
+ Certificate Manager verifies a
+ certificate, it confirms that the digital signature was created by a CA whose
+ own CA certificate is both on file with Certificate Manager and marked as
+ trusted for issuing that kind of certificate. It also confirms that the
+ certificate being verified has not itself been marked as untrusted. Finally,
+ if the OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol) has been
+ activated, Certificate Manager also performs an online check. It does so by
+ looking up the certificate in a list of valid certificates maintained at a
+ URL that is specified either in the certificate itself or
+ in the browser's Validation preferences. If any of these checks fail,
+ Certificate Manager marks the certificate as unverified and won't
+ recognize the identity it certifies.
Software (such as browser software) that sends
+ requests to and receives information from a server,
+ which is usually running on a different computer. A computer on which client
+ software runs is also described as a client.
A certificate
+ that a client (such as browser software) presents to a
+ server to authenticate the identity of the client
+ (or the identity of the person using the client) using the
+ SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) protocol. See
+ also client authentication.
+
+
Component Bar
The toolbar located at the bottom
+ left of any &brandShortName; window. The Component Bar allows you to switch
+ between &brandShortName; components by clicking icons for Browser,
+ Mail & Newsgroups, Composer, and so on.
+
+
cookie
A small bit of information stored on your
+ computer by some websites. When you visit such a
+ site, the site asks your browser to place one or more cookies on your hard
+ disk. Later, when you return to the site, your browser sends the site the
+ cookies that belong to it. Cookies help websites keep track of information
+ about you, such as the contents of your shopping cart. You can set your
+ cookie preferences to control how cookies are used and how much information
+ you are willing to let websites store on them. See also
+ foreign cookie.
+
+
Cookie Manager
The part of the browser
+ that you can use to control cookies.
+
+
CRL (certificate revocation list)
A list of revoked
+ certificates that is generated and signed by a
+ certificate authority (CA). You can
+ download the latest CRL to your browser or to a server, then check against it
+ to make sure that certificates are still valid before permitting their use
+ for authentication.
+
+
cryptographic algorithm
A set of
+ rules or directions used to perform cryptographic operations such as
+ encryption and
+ decryption. Sometimes called a
+ cipher.
+
+
cryptography
The art and practice of scrambling
+ (encrypting) and unscrambling (decrypting) information. For example,
+ cryptographic techniques are used to scramble an unscramble information
+ flowing between commercial websites and your browser. See also
+ public-key cryptography.
+
+
decryption
The process of unscrambling data that
+ has been encrypted. See also encryption.
A code created from both
+ the data to be signed and the private key of the signer. This code is unique
+ for each new piece of data. Even a single comma added to a message changes
+ the digital signature for that message. Successful validation of your digital
+ signature by appropriate software not only provides evidence that you
+ approved the transaction or message, but also provides evidence that the data
+ has not changed since you digitally signed it. A digital signature has
+ nothing to do with a handwritten signature, although it can sometimes be used
+ for similar legal purposes. See also
+ nonrepudiation,
+ tamper detection.
+
+
distinguished name (DN)
A specially
+ formatted name that uniquely identifies the subject of a
+ certificate.
+
+
dual key pairs
Two public-private key
+ pairs—four keys altogether—corresponding to two separate
+ certificates. The private key of one pair is used for signing operations, and
+ the public and private keys of the other pair are used for encryption and
+ decryption operations. Each pair corresponds to a separate
+ certificate. See also
+ public-key cryptography.
+
+
eavesdropping
Surreptitious interception of
+ information sent over a network by an entity for which the information is not
+ intended.
+
+
encryption
The process of scrambling information in
+ a way that disguises its meaning. For example, encrypted connections between
+ computers make it very difficult for third-parties to unscramble, or
+ decrypt, information flowing over the connection. Encrypted
+ information can be decrypted only by someone who possesses the appropriate
+ key. See also public-key
+ cryptography.
A private key used for
+ encryption only. An encryption key and its equivalent private key, plus a
+ signing key and its equivalent public key,
+ constitute a dual key pairs.
Federal Information Processing
+ Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS) 140-1 is a US government standard for
+ implementations of cryptographic modules—that is, hardware or software
+ that encrypts and decrypts data or performs other cryptographic operations
+ (such as creating or verifying digital signatures). Many products sold to the
+ US government must comply with one or more of the FIPS standards.
+
+
foreign cookie
A cookie
+ from one site that gets stored on your computer when you visit a different
+ site. Sometimes a website displays content that is
+ hosted on another website. That content can be anything from an image to text
+ or an advertisement. The second website that hosts such elements also has the
+ ability to store a cookie in your browser, even though you don't visit
+ it directly. Also known as third-party cookie.

Gopher
A protocol used to search and retrieve
+ information on Internet servers, common before the
+ emergence of the World Wide Web.
+
+
helper application
Any application that is
+ used to open or view a file downloaded by the browser. A
+ plugin is a special kind of helper application that
+ installs itself into the Plugins directory of the main browser installation
+ directory and can typically be opened within the browser itself (internally).
+ Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop, and other external applications are
+ considered helper applications but not plugins, since they don't
+ install themselves into the browser directory, but can be opened from the
+ download dialog box.
+
+
home page

The secure
+ version of the HTTP protocol that uses SSL to ensure the
+ privacy of customer data (such as credit card information) while en route
+ over the Internet.
+
+
IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol)
A standard mail
+ server protocol that allows you to store all your messages and any changes to
+ them on the server rather than on your computer's hard disk. Using IMAP
+ rather than POP saves disk space and allows you to access
+ your entire mailbox, including sent mail, drafts, and custom folders, from
+ any location. Using an IMAP server over a modem is generally faster than
+ using a POP mail server, since you initially download message headers only.
+ Not all ISPs support IMAP.
+
+
implicit consent
Also known as implied or
+ opt-out consent. Used to describe privacy settings that may allow
+ websites to gather information about you (for example by means of
+ cookies and online forms) unless you explicitly choose
+ to withhold your consent by selecting an option on a page that the website
+ provides for that purpose. Your consent may not be requested when the
+ information is actually gathered.
+
+
Internet
A worldwide network of millions of computers
+ that communicate with each other using standard protocols such as
+ TCP/IP. Originally developed for the US military in
+ 1969, the Internet grew to include educational and research institutions and,
+ in the late 1990s, millions of businesses, organizations, and individuals.
+ Today the Internet is used for email, browsing the
+ World Wide Web (WWW), instant messaging,
+ usegroups, and many other purposes.
+
+
IP address (Internet protocol address)
The address
+ of a computer on a TCP/IP network. Every computer on
+ the Internet has an IP address.

+ version of each program for each kind of computer. Your browser can
+ automatically download and run Java programs (also called applets).
+
+
JavaScript
A scripting language commonly used to
+ construct web pages. Programmers use JavaScript to
+ make web pages more interactive; for example, to display forms and buttons.
+ JavaScript can be used with Java, but is technically a
+ separate language. Java is not required for JavaScript to work
+ correctly.
+
+
key
A large number used by a
+ cryptographic algorithm to encrypt or
+ decrypt data. A person's public key, for example, allows other people to
+ encrypt messages to that person. The encrypted messages must be decrypted
+ with the corresponding private key. See also
+ public-key cryptography.
+
+
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)
A standard
+ protocol for accessing directory services, such as corporate address books,
+ across multiple platforms. You can set up your browser to access LDAP
+ directories from the Address Book. You can also set up Mail & Newsgroups

+ website passwords, and other stored sensitive information. See also
+ symmetric encryption.
+
+
master password
A password used by
+ Certificate Manager to protect the master key and/or private keys stored on a
+ security device. Certificate Manager needs to
+ access your private keys, for example, when you sign email messages or use
+ one of your own certificates to identify yourself to a website. It needs to
+ access your master key when Password Manager or Form Manager reads or adds to
+ your personal information. You can set or change your master password from
+ the Master Passwords preferences panel. Each security device requires a
+ separate master password. See also private key,
+ master key.
+
+
misrepresentation
Presentation of an entity
+ as a person or organization that it is not. For example, a website might
+ pretend to be a furniture store when it is really just a site that takes
+ credit card payments but never sends any goods. See also
+ spoofing.

+
Navigation Toolbar
The toolbar near the top
+ of the browser window that includes the Back and Forward buttons.
+
+

+ certificate whose corresponding private key is used to sign objects such as
+ code files. See also object signing.
+
+
OCSP (Online Certificate Status Protocol)
A set of rules
+ that Certificate Manager follows to
+ perform an online check of a certificate's validity each time the
+ certificate is used. This process involves checking the certificate against a
+ list of valid certificates maintained at a specified website. Your computer
+ must be online for OCSP to work.
+
+

+ storing them on your computer's hard disk, and entering them for you
+ automatically when you visit such sites.
+
+
Personal Toolbar
The customizable toolbar
+ that appears just below the location bar by default in the browser. It
+ contains standard buttons such as Home, Bookmarks, and so on that you can add

PKCS #11
The public-key cryptography standard that
+ governs security devices such as smart cards. See also
+ security device, smart
+ card.
+
+
PKCS #11 module
A program on your computer
+ that manages cryptographic services such as encryption and decryption using
+ the PKCS #11 standard. Also called cryptographic modules,
+ cryptographic service providers, or security modules,
+ PKCS #11 modules control either hardware or software devices. A PKCS #11
+ module always controls one or more slots, which may be implemented as some
+ form of physical reader (for example, for reading smart cards) or in
+ software. Each slot for a PKCS #11 module can in turn contain a
+ security device (also called token),
+ which is the hardware or software device that provides cryptographic services
+ and stores certificates and keys. Certificate
+ Manager provides two built-in PKCS #11 modules. You may install
+ additional modules on your computer to control smart card readers or other
+ hardware devices.
+
+
PKI (public-key infrastructure)
The standards and services
+ that facilitate the use of public-key cryptography and certificates in a
+ networked environment.
+
+
plugin
A type of
+ helper application that adds new
+ capabilities to your browser, such as the ability to play audio or video
+ clips. Unlike other kinds of helper applications, a plugin application
+ installs itself into the Plugins directory within the main browser
+ installation directory and typically can be opened within the browser itself
+ (internally). For example, an audio plugin lets you listen to audio files on
+ a web page or in an email message. Macromedia Flash
+ Player and Java are both examples of plugin applications.
+
+
POP (Post Office Protocol)
A standard mail server protocol
+ that requires you to download new messages to your local
+ computer—although you can choose to leave copies on the server. With
+ POP, you can store all your messages, including sent mail, drafts, and custom
+ folders, on one computer only. By contrast,
+ IMAP allows you to permanently store all your messages
+ and any changes to them on the server, where you can access them from any
+ computer. Most ISPs currently support POP.
+
+
private key
One of a pair of
+ keys used in public-key cryptography. The private key is
+ kept secret and is used to decrypt data that has been encrypted with the
+ corresponding public key.
+
+
proxy
An intermediary or go-between program that
+ acts as both a server and a
+ client for the purpose of making requests on behalf of
+ other clients.
+
+
public key
+ One of a pair of keys used in public-key cryptography.
+ The public key is distributed freely and published as part of a
+ certificate. It is typically used to encrypt data
+ sent to the public key's owner, who then decrypts the data with the
+ corresponding private key.
+
+
public-key cryptography
A set of
+ well-established techniques and standards that allow an entity (such as a
+ person, an organization, or hardware such as a router) to verify its identity
+ electronically or to sign and encrypt electronic data. Two keys are involved:
+ a public key and a private
+ key. The public key is published as part of a
+ certificate, which associates that key with a
+ particular identity. The corresponding private key is kept secret. Data
+ encrypted with the public key can be decrypted only with the private key.
+
+
+
roaming profile
A user profile (or parts of
+ it) stored on a remote server and used for sharing the
+ same settings and data across multiple computers.
A web-based program that allows
+ users to search for and retrieve specific information from the
+ World Wide Web (WWW). The search engine may
+ search the full text of web documents or a list of keywords, or use
+ librarians who review web documents and index them manually for retrieval.
+ Typically, the user types a word or phrase, also called a query, into a
+ search box, and the search engine displays links to relevant web pages.
Hardware or software that
+ provides cryptographic services such as encryption and decryption and can
+ store certificates and keys. A smart card is one
+ example of a security device implemented in hardware.
+ Certificate Manager contains its own
+ built-in security device, called the
+ software security device, that is
+ always available while the browser is running. Each security device is
+ protected by its own master password.

+ pages) that receives requests from and sends information to a
+ client, which is usually running on a different
+ computer. A computer on which server software runs is also described as a
+ server.
A certificate whose
+ corresponding private key is used to sign
+ transmitted data, so that the receiver can verify the identity of the sender.
+ Certificate authorities (CAs) often issue a signing certificate that will be
+ used to sign email messages at the same time as an
+ encryption certificate that will be
+ used to encrypt email messages. See also dual key
+ pairs, digital signature.
+
+
signing key
A private key used for signing only.
+ A signing key and its equivalent public key, together with an
+ encryption key and its equivalent private key,
+ constitute dual key pairs.
+
+
slot
A piece of hardware, or its equivalent in software,
+ that is controlled by a PKCS #11 module and
+ designed to contain a security device.
+
+
smart card
A small device, typically about the size
+ of a credit card, that contains a microprocessor and is capable of storing
+ cryptographic information (such as keys and certificates) and performing
+ cryptographic operations. Smart cards use the PKCS #11
+ standard. A smart card is one kind of security
+ device.
+
+
SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)
A protocol that
+ sends email messages across the Internet.
+
+
SOCKS
A protocol that a proxy
+ server can use to accept requests from client users in an internal network
+ so that it can forward them across the Internet.
+
+
software security device
The default
+ security device used by
+ Certificate Manager to store private keys
+ associated with your certificates. In addition to private keys, the software
+ security device stores the master key used by
+ Password Manager to encrypt email passwords,
+ website passwords, and other sensitive information. See also
+ private key and master
+ key.
+
+
spoofing
Pretending to be someone else. For example,
+ a person can pretend to have the email address jdoe@mozilla.com, or
+ a computer can identify itself as a site called www.mozilla.com when
+ it is not. Spoofing is one form of
+ misrepresentation.
+
+
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
A protocol that allows mutual
+ authentication between a client and a
+ server for the purpose of establishing an authenticated
+ and encrypted connection. SSL runs above TCP/IP and
+ below HTTP, LDAP,
+ IMAP, NNTP, and other high-level network protocols.
+ The new Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standard called Transport
+ Layer Security (TLS) is based on SSL. See also
+ authentication,
+ encryption.
+
+
Status Bar
The toolbar that appears at the bottom
+ of any &brandShortName; window. It includes the
+ Component Bar on the left and status icons on
+ the right.
+
+
subject
The entity (such as a person, organization,
+ or router) identified by a certificate. In
+ particular, the subject field of a certificate contains the certified
+ entity's subject name and other
+ characteristics.
An encryption method
+ that uses a single cryptographic key to both encrypt and decrypt a given
+ message.
+
+
tamper detection
A mechanism ensuring that
+ data received in electronic form has not been tampered with; that is, that
+ the data received corresponds entirely with the original version of the same
+ data.
TCP/IP (Transmission Control Protocol/Internet
+ Protocol)
A Unix protocol used to connect computers running a variety
+ of operating systems. TCP/IP is an essential Internet protocol and has become
+ a global standard.
A small box with text that appears when
+ you hover your mouse's cursor over certain items. It usually contains
+ information regarding the item being hovered over.
+
+
trust
Confident reliance on a person or other entity. In
+ the context of PKI (public-key infrastructure), trust
+ usually refers to the relationship between the user of a certificate and the
+ certificate authority (CA) that issued
+ the certificate. If you use Certificate Manager to specify that you trust a
+ CA, Certificate Manager trusts valid certificates issued by that CA unless
+ you specify otherwise in the settings for individual certificates. You use
+ the Authorities tab in Certificate Manager to specify the kinds of
+ certificates you do or don't trust specific CAs to issue.
+
+
URL (Uniform Resource Locator)
The standardized address
+ that tells your browser how to locate a file or other resource on the Web.
+ For example: http://www.mozilla.org. You can type URLs into the
+ browser's Location Bar to access
+ web pages. URLs are also used in the links on web
+ pages that you can click to go to other web pages. Also known as an Internet
+ address or Web address.
+
+
web page

+Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings
+
+
+
+
+
+
Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings
+
+
This section describes the settings in the Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings dialog box. Unlike the Preferences dialog box, which applies
+ settings to all accounts, the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog
+ box lets you specify settings on a per-account basis.
+
+
If you are not currently viewing the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings
+ dialog box, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Begin from the Mail window.
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings.
+
Select the name of the account whose settings you want to view or
+ change.
Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings - Account
+ Settings
+
+
This section describes how to view or change your Account Settings, such as
+ your user name, reply-to address, and signature. If you are not already
+ viewing the Account Settings, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the name of the account to display the Account Settings
+ panel.
+
+
+
+
Account Name: The name for this account.
+
For any type of account but Blogs & News Feeds:
+
+
Identity: Stores your name, email address, reply-to
+ address (only if different from your email address), and organization
+ (optional).
+
Signature text: If you want to attach a signature to
+ all outgoing messages, type its text into this box. Check Use
+ HTML to enable HTML code, e.g., <b>bold</b>
+ (optional).
+
Attach the signature from a file instead: Lets you
+ choose to attach the signature from a file (in text, HTML, or image
+ format) rather than entering its text. Checking this option overrides
+ any text entered into the signature box. Click Choose to locate the
+ signature file (optional).
+
+
Attach my vCard to messages: Lets you choose if your
+ vCard should be attached to your outgoing messages. Click Edit Card to
+ edit the card information (optional).
+
+
+
For Blogs & News Feeds accounts:
+
+
Check for new articles at startup: Select this
+ checkbox if you want to check this account automatically for new blogs
+ & news messages whenever you start Mail & Newsgroups.
+
Check for new articles every [__] minutes: Select
+ this checkbox if you want to specify the number of minutes between feed
+ checks. You can also check for new blogs & news messages at any time
+ by clicking Get Msgs in the Mail window.
+
By default, show the article summary instead of loading the
+ web page: Select this checkbox if you want &brandShortName;
+ to display a brief summary of the article (bundled inside the feed)
+ instead of loading the full web page. Showing the article summary is
+ slightly faster than the full web page, but you may miss part of the
+ article content.
+
Empty Trash on Exit: Empties the Trash folder
+ whenever you quit Mail & Newsgroups.
+
Manage Subscriptions...: Shows the Feed Subscriptions
+ dialog, that allows you to add, edit and remove feeds to this blogs
+ & news feeds account.
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.
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.
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.
If you are not already viewing the IMAP server settings, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the account name and click the Server Settings category. (If you
+ chose an IMAP server when you set up this account, you see your IMAP server
+ settings.)
+
+
+
+
Server Type: The server type (IMAP Mail Server) that you
+ specified when you created this account. To change the server type
+ associated with this account, you must delete the account and then
+ re-create it.
+
Server Name: The server name that you specified when you
+ created this account. If you are having problems getting mail from this
+ account, verify with your service provider or system administrator that the
+ server name you entered is correct.
+
User Name: The user name that you specified when you
+ created this account.
+
Port: Unless otherwise instructed to do so by your
+ service provider or system administrator, leave this setting
+ unchanged.
+
Connection security: Choose one of the available options
+ to establish a secure
+ connection to your incoming IMAP server. You can choose one of these:
+
+
None: &brandShortName; will use a plain connection,
+ without encryption at all. You should choose this only
+ if your incoming server doesn't support any type of security.
+
STARTTLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ STARTTLS method. This mechanism
+ will usually run on the standard IMAP port 143.
+
SSL/TLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ IMAP-over-SSL method. The default port for this is 993.
+
+
+
+
Use secure authentication: Choose this setting if you
+ want to use secure mechanisms for logging in like CRAM-MD5. If you are
+ unsure if your service supports this, contact your service provider or
+ system administrator.
+
Check for new messages at startup: Choose this setting
+ if you want Mail & Newsgroups to automatically check this account for
+ new messages whenever you start Mail & Newsgroups.
+
Check for new messages every [__] minutes: Choose this
+ setting to automatically check for new messages, and then specify the
+ number of minutes between mail checks. If you do not select this setting,
+ you can check for new messages at any time by clicking Get Msgs in the Mail
+ window.
+
When I delete a message:
+ Choose the behavior you want for deleted messages. Move it to this
+ folder, where you can choose the specific folder to use, is recommended
+ unless you are instructed to use a different setting by your system
+ administrator or service provider. Messages marked as deleted are removed
+ only when you compact folders.
+
Clean up (Expunge) Inbox on Exit: Removes deleted
+ messages from the Inbox when you exit Mail & Newsgroups. Choose this
+ if you chose to mark messages as deleted.
+
Empty Trash on Exit: Empties the Trash folder whenever
+ you quit Mail & Newsgroups.
+
Advanced: Lets you choose a different outgoing server
+ (SMTP) for outgoing messages from this account. You can also reach the
+ Advanced IMAP Server Settings
+ through this button.
+
Local directory: The location on your hard disk where
+ mail for this account is stored.
+
+
+
Advanced IMAP Server Settings
+
+
In most cases, advanced IMAP server settings are automatically supplied by
+ the server. If you are unsure about the settings for this dialog box,
+ contact your ISP or system administrator.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the advanced IMAP server settings, begin
+ from the Mail window.
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the account name and click the Server Settings category.
+
If the mail server type is an IMAP server, you can click Advanced to set
+ additional IMAP options, such as:
+
+
the IMAP server directory path
+
showing only subscribed folders
+
support for subfolders
+
any personal and public (shared folder) namespaces for this
+ directory
If you are not already viewing the POP server settings, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the account name and click the Server Settings category name. (If
+ you chose a POP server when you set up this account, you see your POP
+ server settings.)
+
+
+
+
Server Type: The server type (POP Mail Server) that you
+ specified when you created this account. To change the server type
+ associated with this account, you must delete the account and then
+ re-create it.
+
Server Name: The server name that you specified when you
+ created this account. If you are having problems getting mail from this
+ account, verify with your service provider or system administrator that the
+ server name you entered is correct.
+
User Name: The user name that you specified when you
+ created this account.
+
Port: Unless otherwise instructed to do so by your
+ service provider or system administrator, leave this setting
+ unchanged.
+
Connection security: Choose one of the available options
+ to establish a secure
+ connection to your incoming POP server. You can choose one of these:
+
+
None: &brandShortName; will use a plain connection,
+ without encryption at all. You should choose this only
+ if your incoming server doesn't support any type of security.
+
STARTTLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ STARTTLS method. This mechanism
+ will usually run on the standard POP port 110.
+
SSL/TLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ POP-over-SSL method. The default port for this is 995.
+
+
+
+
Use secure authentication: Choose this setting if you
+ want to use secure mechanisms for logging in like CRAM-MD5 and APOP. If you
+ are unsure if your server supports this, contact your service provider or
+ system administrator.
+
Check for new messages at startup: Choose this setting
+ if you want Mail & Newsgroups to automatically check this account for
+ new messages whenever you start Mail & Newsgroups. For POP accounts,
+ Mail & Newsgroups doesn't download the new messages until you
+ click Get Msgs on the Mail toolbar.
+
Check for new messages every [__] minutes: Choose this
+ setting to automatically check for new messages, and then specify the
+ number of minutes between mail checks. If you do not select this setting,
+ you can check for new messages at any time by clicking Get Msgs in the Mail
+ window.
+
Automatically download any new messages: Choose this
+ setting if you want Mail & Newsgroups to retrieve messages immediately
+ each time it checks the server.
+
Fetch headers only: Choose this setting if you want to
+ only download the headers instead of entire messages when downloading new
+ mail. This option requires your POP server to support the TOP
+ command. Most recent POP servers support it, but if you are unsure about
+ your server, contact your service provider or system administrator.
+
Leave messages on server: Choose this setting to store a
+ copy of messages on the mail server in addition to downloading them to your
+ computer.
+
+
For at most [__] days: Choose this setting to remove
+ messages from the server automatically after the number of days you
+ enter here.
+
Until I delete them: Choose this setting to remove
+ messages from the server once you delete them.
+
+
+
Empty Trash on Exit: Choose this setting to empty the
+ Trash folder whenever you quit Mail & Newsgroups.
+
Advanced: Lets you choose where new messages should be
+ put. You can also set the server to be queried when checking for new
+ messages.
+
Local directory: The location on your hard disk where
+ mail for this account is stored.
This section describes how to change news server settings. If you are not
+ already viewing news server settings, begin from the Mail window:

+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the account name and click the Server Settings category. (If you
+ chose a newsgroup server when you set up this account, you see your
+ newsgroup server settings.)
+
+
+
+
Server Type: The server type (NNTP) that you specified
+ when you created this account.
+
Server Name: The server name that you specified when you
+ created this account. If you are having problems receiving messages from
+ this account, verify with your service provider or system administrator
+ that the server name you entered is correct.
+
Port: Unless otherwise instructed to do so by your
+ service provider or system administrator, leave this setting
+ unchanged.
+
Connection security: Choose "SSL/TLS" if your
+ news server is configured to send and receive encrypted messages, or
+ "None" if it doesn't support it. If you are unsure, contact
+ your service provider or system administrator.
+
Check for new messages at startup: Choose this setting
+ to automatically check for new messages when you first open the Mail &
+ Newsgroup component of &brandShortName;.
+
Check for new messages every [__] minutes: Choose this
+ setting to automatically check for new messages, and then specify the
+ number of minutes between mail checks. If you do not select this setting,
+ you can check for new messages at any time by clicking Get Msgs in the Mail
+ window.
+
Ask me before downloading more than [__] messages:
+ Choose this setting to conserve disk space and download time, by setting a
+ limit for the number of messages you can retrieve at one time.
+
Always request authentication when connecting to this
+ server: Some servers allow you to talk to them without logging in,
+ but will silently hide all the private groups/postings unless you
+ are logged in. Choose this setting to force &brandShortName; to
+ authenticate each time it connects to this server even when the server
+ doesn't ask (also called Pushed Authentication).
+

+ displayed for your information. The newsrc file stores information about
+ the newsgroups to which you are subscribed and the messages you have read
+ in each newsgroup.
+
Local directory: The location on your hard disk where
+ mail for this account is stored.
+
Default Character Encoding: Click this drop-down list to
+ select the character encoding you want Mail & Newsgroups to use as the

+ likely you might receive messages in which the character encoding (MIME
+ charset) is not indicated, such as when reading messages in international
+ newsgroups.
Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings - Copies
+ & Folders
+
+
This section describes the settings for sending automatic copies, and for
+ storing copies of outgoing messages, message drafts, and message
+ templates.
+
+
By default, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups stores copies of your
+ outgoing messages in the Sent folder for the current account.
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups also stores message drafts in the
+ Drafts folder and message templates in the Templates folder for the
+ current account.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the settings for Copies & Folders, begin
+ from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.

+ drafts. If you don't want to use the default Drafts folder for the
+ current account, click Other and then choose another account and folder
+ for storing drafts.

+ folder for the current account, click Other and then choose another account
+ and folder for storing templates.
+
Show confirmation dialog when messages are saved: Choose
+ this option if you want Mail & Newsgroups to display a confirmation
+ dialog box when you save a draft message or a template. If checked, a
+ dialog box will appear when you save a draft or template to remind you

You use Addressing settings to override the global LDAP server settings
+ specified for all address books in
+ the Preferences dialog box. LDAP server settings affect the behavior of
+ address
+ autocompletion, and you can change these settings for each account if
+ necessary.
+
+
Address autocompletion uses your address books to find matching entries when
+ you type email addresses in the addressing area of the Compose window.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Addressing settings, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You

+ global LDAP server preferences for this account.
+
Use a different LDAP server: Select this option and then
+ choose another LDAP server from the list if you want to use a different
+ LDAP directory server for address autocompletion with this account. If
+ necessary, click Edit Directories to edit individual directory server
+ settings, add a directory server, or delete a directory server. For more
+ information, see Adding
+ and Removing LDAP Directories.
+
+
+
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't have certificates on file.
Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings -
+ Synchronization & Storage
+
+
Synchronization & Storage settings let you conserve disk space or set
+ up an account so that you can use it while offline (disconnected from the
+ Internet). The settings available depend on the mail server type (IMAP, POP,
+ or News) associated with the account.
If you are not already viewing the synchronization and storage preferences
+ for an IMAP account, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Choose the Synchronization & Storage category for an IMAP
+ account.
+
+

+ folders that you want to make available for offline use. See Selecting
+ Items for Offline Viewing for more information.
+
+
Note: While the default setting can be overridden for
+ an individual folder, those per-folder settings are removed
+ whenever the Keep messages for this account box is toggled.
+
+
Synchronize all messages locally regardless of age:
+ When synchronization is enabled for an account or a folder, all
+ messages are downloaded and local copies of them kept on disk, unless
+ a size limit is specified.
+
Synchronize the most recent [__] [days]: Only copies of
+ messages younger than the specified number of days (weeks, months, years)
+ are kept locally for synchronization, after that they are removed from the
+ offline storage. This does not affect the originals on the server,
+ only the local copies are removed if the given age is reached.
+
Don't download messages larger than [__] KB: Select this
+ option to conserve disk space by preventing large messages from being
+ downloaded. Enter the maximum size for downloaded messages. Changing
+ this option does not affect messages that have already been
+ downloaded.
+
The retention settings can be used to
+ free up space by deleting old messages. Note that these settings apply
+ to both local copies and their originals on the server.
Messages from POP accounts are fully downloaded to your local machine unless
+ you have enabled the Fetch headers only setting. This section
+ describes how you can save disk space for a POP account. If your account has
+ the Fetch headers only setting enabled, then these Disk Space
+ preferences are ignored. If you are not already viewing the Disk Space
+ preferences for a POP account, follow these steps:

+ to both local copies and their originals on the server.
+
+
Note: If your POP account is set up to use a Global
+ Inbox, the retention period settings of the target Inbox apply.
Messages from blogs & news feeds accounts are only stored in your local
+ machine in their short form, ie. the article summary, regardless of whether
+ your settings are to show the full articles by default. Still, there are
+ options to control how much disk space is used by your blogs & news feeds
+ account. If you are not already viewing the Disk Space preferences for a
+ blogs & news feeds account, follow these steps:
+
+
Begin from the Mail window.
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Click the Disk Space category for a blogs & news feeds account.
+
+
+
There, you can specify which messages should be deleted to recover disk
+ space:
+
+
+
Don't delete any messages: Select this option to
+ keep all messages forever. Keep in mind that, if you are subscribed to very
+ high-traffic blogs, this will increase the occupied disk space steadily and
+ could eventually fill up your hard disk.
+
Delete all but the most recent [____] messages: Select this
+ option to keep in each feed only a maximum number of messages. Enter the
+ maximum number of messages (being 1,000 by default).
+
Delete messages more than [__] days old: Select this
+ option to keep in each feed only messages that are not older than the number
+ of days you enter here (being 30 days by default).
+

+ deleted:
+
+
+
Don't delete any messages: Keep all messages. Never
+ delete messages automatically based on their age.
+

+ number of messages to keep. With this setting only messages older than these
+ messages are deleted.
+
Delete messages more than [__] days old :
+ Keep all messages that arrived within the given number of days.
+
+
+
With the following settings you can further constrain the three options to
+ delete messages automatically. This is especially useful in combination with
+ the option to keep all messages.
+
+
+
Always keep flagged messages: Use this option to deny
+ &brandShortName; to delete any messages you have flagged.
+
Remove bodies from message more than [__] days old:
+ Select this option to retain all headers but to delete message bodies that
+ are older than the number of days you specify here (news accounts only).
+ Any option to delete the entire message based on age still applies.
+
+
+
This policy can be overridden for an individual folder in the Folder
+ Properties, Retention Policy tab.
+
+
Note: If message synchronization is enabled (for IMAP), or
+ messages are left on the server (for POP accounts), the settings apply to
+ both local copies and their originals on the server.

This section describes how to configure the Mail & Newsgroup Account
+ Settings that control mail message security. Before you do so, however, you
+ must obtain one or more mail certificates. For details, see
+ Signing & Encrypting Messages.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Security settings for your mail account,
+ begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings.
+
Click Security under the name of the mail account whose security settings
+ you want to configure.
The main purpose of the Security panel in Mail & Newsgroup Account
+ Settings is to select two certificates:
+
+
+
The email certificate you want to use for signing mail messages you send
+ to other people.
+
The email certificate you want other people to use when they encrypt
+ messages they send to you.
+
+
+
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:
+
+
+
Use this certificate to digitally sign messages you
+ send: If this field is empty or if it displays the wrong
+ certificate, click Select to choose from the certificates you have on
+ file.
+
Digitally sign messages: Select this checkbox if you
+ want to digitally sign all the messages you send. (A personal certificate
+ must be specified below before you can select this checkbox.)
+
+
+
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:
+
+
+
Use this certificate to encrypt & decrypt messages sent to
+ you: If this field is empty or if it displays the wrong
+ certificate, click Select to choose from the certificates you have on
+ file.
+
Never: Select this option if you never want to use
+ encryption, or only occasionally.
+
Required: Select this option if you always want to use
+ encryption. If you don't have all the necessary certificates, the
+ message won't be sent unless you explicitly turn off encryption for
+ that message only.
+
+
+
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.
Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings - Local
+ Folders
+

Local Folders is the account where &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ saves any messages that you send while working offline. Messages you send
+ while working offline are saved in the Unsent Messages folder under Local
+ Folders. Any folders you create under the Local Folders account reside on
+ your hard disk, so Local Folders is a good place to save messages that you
+ want to keep.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Local Folders settings, begin from the
+ Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You

Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings - Outgoing
+ Server (SMTP)
+
+
The outgoing server will transport your outgoing mail to the intended
+ recipients.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Outgoing Server (SMTP) settings, begin
+ from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click on any Mail window.
+
From the Edit menu, choose Mail & Newsgroup Account Settings.
+
Select Outgoing Server (SMTP) and either edit an existing server or
+ add a new one. If you are not sure which option to choose, check with
+ your ISP or system administrator)
+ You can choose from these servers via the Outgoing Server dropdown in
+ the Identity Settings.
+
+
+
+
Description: A short freetext description of that server
+ configuration. This will show up as first part in the server list.
+
Server name: The SMTP server that will deliver your
+ outgoing mail. To use a different SMTP server, change this field.
+
Port: The port on which the SMTP server will be
+ connected. By default it holds the standard port for the specified
+ encryption. Change it if the mail server is listening for connections
+ on a non-standard port.
+
Use name and password: If your SMTP server requires
+ authentication to send mail, select this option and enter your user name.
+ The first time you send mail, you will be prompted for your password. At
+ that time you can instruct &brandShortName; to save your password for
+ future sessions.
+
Use secure authentication: Choose this setting if you
+ want to use secure mechanisms for logging in like CRAM-MD5. If you are
+ unsure if your service supports this, contact your service provider or
+ system administrator.
+
Use secure connection: There are two methods for
+ establishing a secure
+ connection to your outgoing server. Pick the one your server supports
+ (if you make a choice for which your server is not configured, you will
+ get an error message when sending mail).
+
+
STARTTLS, if available: &brandShortName; will try to
+ negotiate encryption using the
+ STARTTLS method. If the server
+ doesn't support it, an unencrypted connection is used.
+
STARTTLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ STARTTLS method. This mechanism
+ will usually run on the standard SMTP port 25.
+
SSL/TLS: Require an encrypted connection, use the
+ SMTP-over-SSL (also known as SMTPS) method. The default port for this
+ is 465.
Address books store email addresses and contact information for people you
+ typically send mail to, such as colleagues, friends, and family.
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups provides you with two address books:
+ the Personal Address Book and the Collected Addresses—and you can
+ create additional address books as well. You can also import address books
+ from other mail programs and previous versions of &brandShortName;. The
+ contents of these address books are stored locally on your hard disk.
+
+
Your address book may also list email addresses from an LDAP directory,
+ which is located on an LDAP directory server. The directory server stores
+ email addresses of people that are not included in your locally-stored
+ address books. The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an
+ industry-standard method for accessing Internet or intranet directory
+ services such as corporate address books.
+
+
Personal Address Book
+
+
Use the Personal Address Book to add specific names of your choice. You can
+ create mailing lists and edit individual address entries.
+
+
Collected Addresses
+
+
By default, the Collected Addresses automatically collects the email
+ addresses contained in outgoing mail messages. Addresses from outgoing
+ messages are stored in the Collected Addresses as soon as you click Send.
+
+
LDAP Directory (if available)
+
+
An LDAP directory (also known as an address lookup service) stores email
+ addresses of recipients who are not in your locally-stored address books.
+ LDAP directories offer you access to large, centrally maintained databases
+ of email addresses, which is especially useful with
+ address
+ autocompletion.
+
+
Automatic address collection is enabled by default. To change automatic
+ address collection settings, begin in the Mail window:
+

To subscribe to a feed, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Get into the Feed
+ Subscriptions dialog. There are several ways to do this:
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds
+ account to manage, then click in the Manage Subscriptions in the right
+ pane.
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds
+ account to manage, or a feed inside it, then open the File menu and
+ choose Subscribe.
+
In the accounts pane, right click your desired Blogs
+ & News Feeds account to manage and choose Subscribe...
+
Open the Edit menu and select the Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings option. In the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog,
+ click on a Blogs & News Feeds account main section, and then
+ click the Manage Subscriptions... button.
+
+
+
Once in the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click the Add button. The Feed
+ properties dialog will appear.
+
Type (or copy and paste) the feed URL into the Feed URL field.
+
Click Store articles in dropdown list to choose the item list
+ where you want the articles to be stored. This allows you to merge
+ multiple feeds in one list item.
+
Set Show the article summary instead of loading the web page to
+ display a brief summary that blog feeds usually include for each article.
+
+
Tip: Showing the article summary reduces the bandwidth
+ traffic and is faster, since the summary is already downloaded when the
+ feed is checked for new items. However, if you usually are interested in
+ the full article, you will save time by unchecking this option.
Subscribing to blogs
+ & news feeds from a browser window
+
+
While browsing the web using &brandShortName;, you may find the Feed
+ discovery icon () while visiting a web page. You
+ can click on it to see a list of available feeds and choose one to get it
+ added to your first Blogs & News Feeds account.
When you open your Blogs & News account, you see the list of feeds to
+ which you subscribed. &brandShortName; checks and downloads every feed for
+ new messages.
+
+
To read blogs & news messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Double-click a blogs & news account to see its feeds. (If there are
+ no feeds, you may need to subscribe to one.)
+
Click a feed name to see its messages.
+
Click a message to read it. The header will show the original URL of the
+ article, which you can click to open a browser window with the
+ corresponding webpage.
+
+
+
Depending on your settings for the Blogs & News account and each
+ individual feed, the message will be shown in its summarized view or the
+ full view. You can change it by choosing the menu option View, and then Feed
+ Message Body As. You can then select one of these options:
+
+
+
Web Page: Select this to show the full web page of this
+ message.
+
Summary: Select this to show the summarized, short
+ version of this message.
+
Default format: Select this to show the article in its
+ default format, as specified in the feed options or, otherwise, the Blogs
+ & News account.
To post a blog message, you need an account in the corresponding blog. Also,
+ there is no standardized way to post blog messages, so you won't
+ normally be able to post messages from &brandShortName; Mail component.
+ Instead, you will need to open a browser window, log in to your blog account
+ and use the web interface.
+
+
Some blog systems, however, allow posting blog messages by sending an email
+ message to a specific address. You will need to find out if your blog service
+ implements this feature, and the correct email address to use.
Since there is no standardized way to add comments to a blog post, you will
+ usually need to open a browser window and use the web interface.
+
+
Some blog systems, however, allow adding comments by sending an email
+ message to a specific address. You will need to find out if the blog service

+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.

+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click the Import button. The Select
+ OPML file to import dialog will appear.
+
Select the directory and filename to load the OPML file, and click
+ Save.
+
All the feeds defined in the OPML file will be added to your blogs &
+ feeds account.
If you want to change the properties of one of the feeds in your blogs &
+ news account, you can edit it.
+
+
To edit a feed in your selected blogs & news account, begin from the
+ Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click on a feed in the feed list. You
+ may need to expand the folders in the feed list to see each individual
+ feed.
+
Click the Edit button. The Feed properties dialog will appear.
+
You can change where you want the articles to be stored clicking the
+ Store articles in dropdown list.
+
You may mark Show the article summary instead of loading the web
+ page to display a brief summary that blog feeds usually include for
+ each article.
+
+
Tip: Showing the article summary reduces the bandwidth
+ traffic and is faster, since the summary is already downloaded when the
+ feed is checked for new items. However, if you usually are interested in
+ the full article, you will save time by unchecking this option.
If you no longer want to follow one of the feeds in your blogs & news
+ account, you can remove it.
+
+
To remove a feed in your selected blogs & news account, begin from the
+ Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click on a feed in the feed list. You
+ may need to expand the folders in the feed list to see each individual
+ feed.
+
Click the Remove button. You will be asked to confirm the deletion of the
+ feed.
+
+
+
Note: don't confuse a feed with a folder in a Blogs
+ & News account. Removing a feed doesn't delete the folder in which
+ the feed articles are stored, and thus, such articles will stay in the folder
+ until you delete either the whole folder or the articles themselves. To get
+ a better understanding, see Organizing your
+ feeds later in this section.
A single blogs & news feeds account can contain any number of feeds in
+ it, so you don't strictly need more than one blogs & news feeds
+ account. However, you may want to create several blogs & news feeds
+ accounts. Some reasons to do that are:
+
+
+
You can use different accounts to categorize your feeds. For example, you
+ can create an account named Mozilla News to put in it all your
+ feeds related to Mozilla, and another one named Today Headlines to
+ put in it all your feeds with general news.
+
If you have several accounts, each one can have different settings. This
+ way, you can choose, for example, different time intervals for each account
+ (and, therefore, their feeds.)
The default operation mode when adding a feed to a Blogs & News Feeds
+ account in &brandShortName; is to create a folder and a feed inside it.
+ However, &brandShortName; allows you a great deal of flexibility. This section
+ helps you to better organize your feeds:
Blogs & News Feeds accounts are organized through two main concepts:
+ feeds and folders.
+
+
+
Feeds are sources for articles/posts. They provide
+ the means to get new articles from blogs. You subscribe to feeds.
+
Folders in Blogs & News Feeds accounts work pretty
+ much like in any other account type. Folders store articles/posts you got
+ through the feeds.
+
+
+
You use the Feed Subscriptions dialog to tell &brandShortName; which feed
+ messages are downloaded in which folders. As feeds provide new articles and
+ folders provide the store to put such articles, you will want to have them
+ connected, usually linking a feed to a folder. However, keep in mind that
+ removing a feed will not automatically delete the associated folder, nor
+ will remove the articles/posts from the removed feed, since they are
+ stored into the folder.
You may want to use a single folder to store articles/items coming from
+ more than one feed. To do this, you just need to add additional feeds in
+ that folder. Begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds account
+ to manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click in the desired folder, then click
+ the Add button. The Feed properties dialog will appear.
+
Type (or copy and paste) the feed URL in the Feed URL field.

+
+
+
You are now ready to get messages from your account. &brandShortName; Mail
+ & Newsgroups will prompt you for your password when you retrieve mail for
+ the first time every session. For detailed instructions on how to retrieve
+ mail, see Getting New Messages.
You use the Account Settings dialog box to add a new account or to change
+ information for an existing account, including:
+
+
+
mail and newsgroup server settings (for example, message deletion and
+ download preferences)
+
storage settings for message copies and folders
+
your reply-to address, organization name, and signature
+
+
+
To add a new account or change settings for an existing account, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box. You can perform
+ these tasks:
+
+
Add Account: Click this button to set up a new mail,
+ news or blogs & news feeds account. Be sure to type the account
+ information exactly as it is given to you. Move through the screens
+ with the arrows, or click Cancel to stop account creation.
+
Set as Default: Select an account, then click this
+ button to make the selected account appear at the top of your list of
+ accounts in the Mail Window. The change takes effect the next time you
+ open Mail & Newsgroups.
+
+
The default account is the one that you want to log into and (for
+ IMAP accounts only) automatically check for new messages when you
+ start Mail & Newsgroups. (For POP accounts, you must always click
+ the Get Msg button to get new messages.)
+
+
Note: You can't set a blogs & news feeds
+ account as default.
+
+

Click the account name in the left-hand side of the Account Settings
+ dialog box. You see information about the account, such as your email
+ address and signature, in the right side of the dialog box.
+
Click any of these items beneath the name of an account to see the
+ corresponding settings:
+
Important: If you need to change the server type
+ (for example, from POP to IMAP) you must first remove the existing
+ account. Next, you must exit &brandShortName; and restart it. You can
+ then reopen the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box and
+ recreate an account with the new server type by clicking Add
+ Account.
+
+
Copies & Folders: These settings determine
+ whether to send automatic messages (blind carbon copies) and where you
+ want to store copies of outgoing messages, message drafts, and message
+ templates. For more information, see
+ Mail
+ & Newsgroups Account Settings - Copies & Folders.
+
Composition & Addressing: These settings allow
+ you to choose your default format and quoting behavior when composing a

+ specified for all address books in the Preferences dialog box. For more
+ information, see
+ Mail &
+ Newsgroups Account Settings - Composition & Addressing.
Disk Space (POP and blogs & news feeds accounts
+ only): This setting helps you manage the amount of disk
+ space that downloaded messages take up on your hard disk. For more
+ information, see
+ Disk
+ Space Settings (POP) or Disk
+ Space Settings (Blogs).
+
Security: These settings determine which
+ certificates are used to
+ digitally sign and encrypt mail messages that you send. Digital
+ signatures allow you to identify yourself reliably to others in
+ mail messages that you send. Encryption helps ensure that your
+ messages remain private while they are in transit over the
+ Internet. For more information, see
+ Mail &
+ Newsgroups Account Settings - Security.
For an IMAP account, you can retrieve new messages automatically and display
+ them in the Inbox by opening Mail & Newsgroups and selecting the Inbox
+ for the IMAP account.
+
+
For a POP account, you must select the Inbox and click Get Msgs to retrieve
+ your messages. By default, messages from your POP account are downloaded in
+ full and deleted from the POP server when you retrieve them. You can
+ change your POP
+ server settings to retrieve just the headers and/or store a copy of
+ messages on the server in addition to downloading them to your computer.
+
+
For news accounts, expanding the account newsgroups list will automatically
+ check for new items, as it will by just selecting one of the newsgroups.
+ While reading a newsgroup, you can force checking for new items by clicking
+ Get Msgs.
+
+
For blogs & feeds accounts, the first time you expand the account, it
+ will be checked for new items. Besides that, you can force checking for new
+ items at any time by clicking Get Msgs.

To set up a mail account to automatically check for new messages, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
If you have multiple accounts, select an account and click the Server
+ Settings category for that account.
+
Select one or both of the following options in the Server Settings
+ section:
+
+
Check for new mail at startup: Select this checkbox
+ if you want to check this account automatically for new messages
+ whenever you start Mail & Newsgroups. For POP accounts, Mail &
+ Newsgroups checks for new mail, but doesn't download new messages
+ until you click Get Msgs or unless you choose Automatically download
+ any new messages.
+
Check for new messages every [__] minutes: Select
+ this checkbox if you want to specify the number of minutes between mail
+ checks. You can also check for new messages at any time by clicking Get
+ Msgs in the Mail window.
+
+
+
Click OK. Your settings take effect the next time you start
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups.

+
+
+
To get new messages for all your mail accounts, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the triangle on the Get Msgs button in the Mail toolbar.
+
Choose Get All New Messages. &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ retrieves new messages for all your mail accounts.
+
+
If you are not currently logged into one of your mail accounts, Mail
+ & Newsgroups first prompts you to enter your user name and password
+ before retrieving new messages for that account. (If you have already
+ stored your user name and password using the Password Manager, Mail &
+ Newsgroups doesn't prompt you for this information.)
+
+
+
+
Note: You can also open the File menu (in the Mail window)
+ and choose Get New Messages for.
+
+
To get new messages for a specific mail account, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the triangle on the Get Msgs button on the Mail toolbar.
+
Choose the account for which you want to retrieve mail.
+
+
+
Note: Mail & Newsgroups prompts you for your password
+ the first time you retrieve messages for an account. You can choose to have
+ Mail & Newsgroups store your password in the Password Manager at that
+ time.
+
+
Password Manager can save all your user names and passwords on your own
+ computer and enter them for you automatically. For more information, see
+ Using the Password
+ Manager.
To sort messages by categories such as subject, sender, date, or priority,
+ begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the appropriate column heading in the message list window. Or, open
+ the View menu, choose Sort by, and then select the column you want to sort
+ by.
+
+

+
+
+
To change which columns are displayed, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the Show/Hide Columns icon
+ and select the column to be added/removed from the list.
+
+
+
To group messages by threading (subject), so each message is grouped with
+ all its responses:
+
+
+
Click the thread button to the left of the Subject, Sender, and Date
+ column headings. Or, open the View menu, choose Sort by, and then select
+ Threaded.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Thread button
+
+
+
+
Tip: The thread button automatically sorts the threads by
+ the age of their parent messages. If you want to use another sort criterion
+ for the threads, open the View menu and select the desired option from the
+ Sort by submenu.
+
+
Tip: Select Preserve threading when sorting messages
+ in the Mail &
+ Newsgroups Preferences if you want &brandShortName; to preserve the
+ threaded message grouping when sorting messages with column header clicks. The
+ thread button just toggles between threaded and unthreaded message grouping in
+ this mode. If Preserve threading when sorting messages is not selected,
+ &brandShortName; automatically displays the messages unthreaded when you sort
+ them by clicking on a column header.
+
+
Tip: To help you identify unread messages in a collapsed
+ thread where you've read the parent message, &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups underlines the parent message.
To save a mail message as a plain-text, HTML, or Outlook Express file:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, select the message.
+
Open the File menu and choose Save As, and then choose File.
+
For Save as type, choose a file type (HTML, Text, or Mail file).
+ Choose Mail file if you want to save the message so it can be opened by
+ Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express.
+
Change the filename's extension to end in .html, .txt, or .eml,
+ depending on the file type you chose in step 3.
By default, images and other content, that is hosted remotely, will not
+ display in messages you receive, except from senders in your address books
+ whom you have allowed. To change these settings:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Message Display. (If
+ no subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to
+ expand the list.)
+
Uncheck Block images and other content from remote sources.
+
Click OK to have your change take effect.
+
+
+
Note: See Allow remote images in HTML mail in
+ Creating a New Address Book
+ Card for details of how to change which senders can show remote
+ content.
+
+
By default, plugins are not enabled for mail messages you receive. To change
+ this setting:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Advanced category, click Scripts & Plugins. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Advanced to expand the
+ list.)
+
+
Under Enable Plugins for, check Mail & Newsgroups
+ to enable plugins.
You can address, compose, reply to, or send a new message by doing one of
+ the following:
+
+
+
In any &brandShortName; window, open the File menu and choose New, then
+ Message.
+
Click Compose on the Mail toolbar.
+
While displaying a message, click Reply, Forward, or Reply All on the
+ Mail toolbar.
+
From the Address Book window, select an address and click Compose on the
+ Address Book.
+
+
+
Tip: Use the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings -
+ Composition &
+ Addressing dialog box to specify the HTML text editor to use for
+ composing messages sent from this account. (You can specify a different
+ editor for each of your accounts.) See Changing the Settings for an
+ Account for more information.
+
+
Note: It is generally not possible to compose messages for
+ them to be published in blogs & news feeds accounts. If you want to
+ publish posts in a blog (and you have the appropiate rights to do it), you
+ will need to use the mechanisms provided by the specific blog system. In some
+ cases, this can even include sending a mail message to a specific address.
+
+
Composing messages in HTML format allows you to use different fonts, text
+ styles (such as bold or italic) and text colors, tables, numbered or bulleted
+ lists, and pictures in your messages. However, some recipients may only be
+ able to read messages composed in plain text format. If you want to use the
+ plain-text editor occasionally, you can hold down the Shift key while
+ clicking the Compose or the Reply button to use the plain-text editor on an
+ as-needed basis.
Use the Compose window to address, compose, and send mail and newsgroup
+ messages. First specify whether you want to compose messages in plain text or
+ HTML by default in the Composition &
+ Addressing Preferences panel (open the Edit menu and choose Mail &
+ Newsgroups Account Settings).
+
+
To view the Compose window, click the Compose button on the Mail
+ toolbar.
+
+
The Compose window contains the following:
+

+
Send: To send a completed message.
+
Address: To search for names in your address
+ books.
+
Attach: To attach a file to a message. See
+ Using Attachments for more
+ information.
+
Spell: To check the spelling of your message
+ text.
+
Security: To display information about whether
+ your message will be sent encrypted or digitally signed (or
+ both).
+
Save: To save the message as a draft.
+
+
+
Addressing area: Where you enter the email addresses of recipients.
+
Attachments area: When you attach files to a message (by clicking in this
+ area or by clicking the Attach button), the filenames will be listed in the
+ Attachments area to the right of the Addressing area.
+
Message body area: Where you type the contents of your message.
+
+
+
If you've chosen to compose messages using the HTML editor, you see an
+ additional toolbar with text formatting buttons similar to those in
+ &brandShortName; Composer.
If you have address
+ autocompletion enabled (it's enabled by default), type the first
+ few letters of the recipient's name and wait for Mail &
+ Newsgroups to complete the address. (Or you can type part of the name and
+ immediately press ReturnEnter to have Mail & Newsgroups try to complete
+ the address.)
+
+
If multiple addresses are displayed, select an address and press
+ ReturnEnter.
+
+
Note: Use a comma to separate multiple addresses on the
+ same line. Do not use a comma to separate first or last names. For
+ example, multiple entries might be:
If necessary, click To to choose a different recipient type:
+
+
To: For primary recipients of your message.
+
Cc: For secondary recipients (carbon copy).
+
Bcc: For secondary recipients not identified to the
+ other recipients, including those in the cc list (blind carbon
+ copy).
+
Reply-To: For recipients to reply to a different
+ email address other than the one the message is sent from.
+
Newsgroup: For posting to a newsgroup.
+
Followup-To: For redirecting a newsgroup posting, so
+ that subsequent replies go directly to the redirected newsgroup instead
+ of the original newsgroup.
+
+
+
+
+
Tip: You can quickly address a message by clicking the
+ email address contained in a message you're reading, and then selecting
+ Compose Mail To from the pop-up menu.
+
+
Changing the
+ Account From Which a Message is Sent
+
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, the account listed in the From field is
+ based on the account (or server) you selected when you choose to create a new
+ message. However, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups also allows you to
+ change the account a message is sent from while you're composing a
+ message. Click the From field to view a list of your accounts and then select
+ the account you want. A copy of the message is saved in the Sent folder of
+ the account where you sent the message from.
+
+
About Address Autocompletion
+
+
Address autocompletion allows you to address mail easily from the Compose
+ window without having to search for names or type complete names. Mail &
+ Newsgroups automatically checks your address books and an
+ LDAP directory server (if available) and
+ completes the name if it finds a unique match. It also prevents mistakes by
+ showing all possible choices with additional information if it finds multiple
+ matches. Address autocompletion is enabled by default.
+
+
If you don't want to use an address that Mail & Newsgroups
+ provides, press Backspace or Delete to remove characters and then enter an
+ alternate address.
+
+
To disable address autocompletion:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Addressing. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand
+ the list).
+
In the Address Autocompletion section, deselect Local Address
+ Books and Directory Server.
While you're composing a message, you can select these additional
+ message sending options from the Options menu:
+
+
+
Select Addresses: The Select Addresses option lets you
+ choose the recipient's email address from your Address Books or a
+ remote directory. To look up an address in an address book or directory,
+ enter the first few letters of the recipient's first or last name to
+ start the search. Select an address and then click To:, Cc:, or Bcc: to
+ address your message.
+
Check Spelling: Checks the spelling of the message text
+ before you send it. You can also click Spell.
+
Spellcheck As You Type: Choose this option to have the
+ spelling of the message text checked as you type.
+
Quote Message: Choose this option to have the selection
+ of the message text shown as quoted text.
+
Return Receipt: Choose this option to request a
+ confirmation message when the recipient displays (opens) the message. Keep
+ in mind that the recipient may choose not to send you a return receipt.
+ This option lets you enable or disable return receipt requests on a
+ per-message basis. To automatically request return receipts for all
+ messages you send, use the return receipts preferences. See
+ Mail &
+ Newsgroups Preferences - Return Receipts for more information.
+
Format: Send the message as plain text, or HTML
+ (formatted), or both. If you choose Auto-Detect, Mail &
+ Newsgroups prompts you for the format to use if it's unknown whether
+ the recipient's mail program can display an HTML message. The format
+ you choose here overrides the send format you specified using the
+ Preferences command on the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu.
+
Priority: Choose a priority to indicate whether the
+ message has lowest, low, normal, high, or highest priority.
+
Character Encoding: Choose a character encoding used for
+ this message.
+
Send a Copy To: Choose this if you want to file an
+ additional copy of the sent message in a different folder than your default
+ Sent folder. Then select the folder you want.
+
Security: Choose this to change the default security
+ options for this message.
+
+
+
An additional message formatting option is available from the Edit menu:
+
+
+
Rewrap: If you are composing a message using the
+ plain-text editor, you can use the Rewrap command to rewrap long lines of
+ quoted text to fit the Compose window. This command rewraps selected quoted
+ text to the number of characters specified by the
+ Composition
+ preferences. This command is primarily useful when you are replying to a
+ message where the original message is quoted in your reply, and the original
+ message contains long lines.
+
+
You use the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings command on the Edit
+ menu to specify that you want to use the plain-text editor for composing
+ messages. Select the Composition & Addressing panel of the account
+ and uncheck Compose messages in HTML format to use the plain-text
+ editor for all messages. If you only want to use the plain-text editor
+ occasionally, you can hold down the Shift key while clicking the Compose
+ or the Reply button to use the plain-text editor on an as-needed
+ basis.
Click Reply All to respond to all addressees in the message.
+
+
+
To include the original message each time you reply to any message, and to
+ specify how to place the original message in the reply:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
+ You see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
If you have multiple accounts, select an account and click the
+ Composition &
+ Addressing category for that account.
+
Select Automatically quote the original message when
+ replying.
+
Specify where in the message to place your reply. Start my reply below
+ the quote is the default.
+
If you have decided to attach a
+ signature to every outgoing message and selected to start your reply
+ above the quote here, you can additionally configure where your signature
+ is placed:
+
+
Select below the quote (recommended) to place your signature
+ at the very end of the message below the quoted text.
+
Select below my reply (above the quote) to place your
+ signature between your reply and the quoted text.
+
+
+
Note: If you have created a signature, you can
+ optionally omit
+ it when replying to a message.
When you forward a message, you can specify how its contents are included
+ in the new message: inline (in the body of the message), or as an
+ attachment.
+
+
To forward a message:
+
+
+
Select the message and click Forward.
+
Type the name or email address of the recipient.
+
Click Send.
+
+
+
To set the default for forwarding messages:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Composition. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list.)
+
For forwarding messages, choose Inline (in the message body) or As
+ Attachment.
+
+
Note: If you have created a signature and forward
+ inline, its placement depends on the respective reply setting. You can
+ optionally omit the
+ signature when forwarding a message.
+
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Tip: To override the default for forwarding a message,
+ select the message, open the Message menu, and choose Forward As, then
+ choose Inline or Attachment.
You can use return receipts to notify you when a recipient has displayed
+ (opened) your message. The recipient must be using a mail program that
+ supports the Message Disposition Notification (MDN) standard. Keep in mind
+ that the recipient may choose not to send you a return receipt, even if
+ you've requested one. Messages you send to a newsgroup address will not
+ include a return receipt request, since news servers don't support this
+ feature.
+
+
To request return receipts for all messages you send, you can use the global
+ Return
+ Receipt preferences to specify how to manage requests you receive for
+ return receipts. You can override these global preferences for individual
+ accounts.
+
+
To request a return receipt on a per-message basis:
+
+
+
From a Mail Compose window, open the Options menu, and choose Return
+ Receipt.
+
+
+
To automatically request return receipts when sending messages from each of
+ your mail accounts:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Return
+ Receipts. (If no subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &
+ Newsgroups to expand the list.)
+
Select When sending messages, always request a return receipt.
To save a mail message as a draft so you can complete it later:
+
+
+
In the Compose window, click Save, or open the File menu and choose Save
+ as Draft. By default, the message is saved in the Drafts folder for the
+ current account.
+
+
Note: Your mail message will stay open after you save
+ it as a draft.
+
+
+
+
To edit or send a message draft, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the Drafts folder for the account where you created the message
+ draft.
+
Click the message that you want to edit.
+
In the top-right corner of the message, click the Edit Draft
+ button.
+
Edit the message as necessary.
+
Click Send to send the message or click Save to save the message so you
+ can complete it later.
+
+
Note: Sending the message removes it from the Drafts
+ folder.
+
+
+
+
Tip: You can also double-click the message to open it for
+ editing. This is especially useful if the message pane is closed.
+
+
To delete one or more unwanted message drafts, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the Drafts folder for the account where you created the message
+ drafts.
+
Select the message drafts that you want to delete.
Templates are useful for setting the default format for messages that you
+ send regularly, such as weekly status reports. You can save a message as a
+ template from any window in which it is displayed, including from within a
+ Mail compose window.
+
+
To save a message to use as a template:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, click Compose to create a new message and then set
+ the default font, text size, text color, background color, and any other
+ default formatting you want.
+
+
Alternatively, open an existing message that already has the formatting
+ you want.
+
+
While displaying the message, open the File menu, choose Save As, then
+ choose Template. The message is stored as a template in the Templates
+ folder for the current mail account.
+
+
+
To compose a message using a template:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, select the Templates folder for the account where you
+ created the message template.
+
Double-click the message template to open it.
+
Edit the message, then save it (to put it in the Drafts folder) or send
+ it.
+
+
Note: Sending the message does not remove the template
+ from the Templates folder. The template is preserved for future use.
+
+
+
+
To delete one or more unwanted message templates, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the Templates folder for the account where you created the message
+ templates.
+
Select the message templates that you want to delete.
HTML messages can include formatted text, links, images, and
+ tables—just like a web page. However, some recipients may not be able
+ to receive HTML messages. &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups allows you
+ to compose mail and newsgroup messages using either the HTML (rich-text)
+ formatting editor or the plain-text editor for each mail account you have.
+ In addition, you can choose whether your addressees should receive HTML or
+ plain-text messages by default, and how Mail & Newsgroups should handle
+ messages when it's not known if an addressee can receive HTML-formatted
+ mail.
+
+
To specify whether to use the HTML editor as the default for composing
+ messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+

+
Go to the Composition & Addressing panel and select Compose
+ messages in HTML format. You see the Formatting toolbar in the Compose
+ window. Leave this box unchecked to use the plain-text editor for this
+ account.
If you understand how to work with HTML source code, you can edit or insert
+ additional HTML tags, style attributes, and JavaScript in your mail message.
+ If you are not sure how to work with HTML source code, it's best not to
+ change it. To work with HTML code, use one of these methods:
+
+
+
Place the insertion point where you want to insert the HTML code, then
+ open the Insert menu and choose HTML. In the Insert HTML dialog box, enter
+ HTML tags and text, and then click Insert to insert your changes.
+
Select the HTML source code that you want to edit, then open the Insert
+ menu and choose HTML. In the Insert HTML dialog box, edit HTML tags and
+ text, and then click Insert to insert your changes.

By default, Mail & Newsgroups prompts you before sending HTML messages
+ when it's not known whether the recipient's mail program can
+ display HTML-formatted messages.
+
+
To choose sending-format options for mail messages, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Send Format. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list).
+
+
Note: This preference applies only to mail messages,
+ not to newsgroup messages.
+
+
Select the option you want and then click OK.
+
+
+
If while composing a message you realize that one or more recipients may not
+ be able to receive HTML-formatted mail, you can easily convert the message to
+ a different format when you click Send:
+
+
+
In the Compose window, open the Options menu and choose Format.
+
Select the format you want to use for sending the message from the
+ submenu:
+
+
Auto Detect: Mail & Newsgroups chooses the
+ appropriate format for the message text. If it can't determine the
+ format, it asks you to choose a format.
+
Plain Text Only: The message may not display
+ formatting such as bold text, but all mail programs will be able to
+ display the message.
+
Rich Text (HTML) Only: Some mail programs may have
+ trouble displaying an HTML-formatted message. Choose this option only
+ if you are sure the recipient's mail program can display
+ HTML-formatted mail.
+
Plain and Rich (HTML) Text: This uses more disk
+ space, but may be the best choice if you are not sure whether the
+ recipient's mail program can display HTML-formatted mail.
+
+
+
When you've finished composing the message, click Send.
You can save time by indicating whether individuals in your address books
+ prefer to receive either HTML messages or plain text messages.
+
+
+
Open the Window menu and choose Address Book.
+
Select the address book on the left and then select the individual's
+ card on the right.
+
Click Properties to display the Card for dialog box.
+
In the Contact tab, use the Prefers to receive messages formatted
+ as drop-down list to select HTML if you know this recipient can read
+ HTML-formatted messages (such as messages that include links, images, or
+ tables).
+
+
If this recipient can only read messages sent as plain text (no
+ formatting), then choose Plain Text. If you don't know or are not
+ sure, choose Unknown.
+
+
If you choose Unknown, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups determines
+ the sending format based on the Send Format settings for Mail &
+ Newsgroups in the Preferences dialog box. If Mail & Newsgroups still
+ can't determine the correct format, it will prompt you to choose a
+ sending format when you send the message.
The HTML Mail Question dialog box appears when you try to send a message to
+ someone whose mail program may not be able to display HTML messages or when
+ Mail & Newsgroups cannot determine whether your recipient can display
+ HTML messages. If you are in doubt, send the message in both HTML and
+ plain-text formats.
If you receive a mail attachment that consists of a file type that
+ &brandShortName; can display (such as graphic files and HTML files), you see
+ the attachment displayed inline (in the body of the message). For other file
+ types, Mail & Newsgroups lets you open the attachment using another
+ application, or you can save the attachment on your hard disk.
+
+
To open the attachment, make sure you have a program on your computer that
+ can open files of the same type as the attachment's file format. For
+ example, if you want to open a .DOC file, make sure you have a program on
+ your computer that can open .DOC files.
+
+
To open an attachment:
+
+
+
Double-click the attachment you want (if there is more than one).
+
In the Downloading dialog box, choose what you want &brandShortName; to
+ do with the attachment:
+
+
If &brandShortName; finds an application on your hard disk that can
+ open the attachment, you can open the attachment using that
+ application. Click Choose to use a different application to open
+ the attachment.
+
If &brandShortName; can't find an application on your hard disk
+ that can open the attachment, you can save the attachment. You
+ won't be able to open the attachment, but at least you can save
+ it on your hard disk until you can install an application that can open
+ it.
+
Click Advanced to add a new file type to the list of helper
+ applications. &brandShortName; uses helper applications to determine
+ how different file types are opened by other applications from within
+ &brandShortName;. For more information, see
+ Plugins and
+ Downloads.
+
+
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Note: If you are viewing your mail using an IMAP mail
+ server, all attachments remain on the server.
In the right side of the message envelope, under Attachments,
+ select the attachment that you want to save.
+
Right-click or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-clickthe attachment and choose Save As from the
+ pop-up menu.
+
Choose a filename and location for the attachment on your hard disk and
+ then click OK. Mail & Newsgroups downloads the attachment and saves it
+ to the specified location.
+
+
+
Tip: To save all attachments, right-click
+ or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-clickthe first one in the attachment list, and choose
+ Save All. You can then specify the location where you want all the
+ attachments to be saved.
How you delete messages depends on your mail server type: POP or IMAP.
+ Deleted POP messages are automatically moved to the Trash folder. IMAP users
+ can set different options for deleting messages.
+
+
To delete messages from your Inbox or other folders, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
In the message list, select the messages and click Delete. By default,
+ Mail & Newsgroups moves the selected messages to the Trash folder.
+

+
+
Alternatively, click the Message Pane handle (the ridged area centered
+ at the bottom of the message list) to close the message pane.
+
+
In the message list, select the messages and click Delete.
+
+
+
To set deletion preferences for IMAP messages:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Locate the IMAP account you want, and then click the Server Settings
+ category under the account name.
+
Select the options
+ you want for deleting messages and click OK.
If you use a POP server to deliver your mail, or if you set up IMAP to use
+ the Trash folder, follow these steps to delete messages from your Inbox or
+ other folders:
+
+
+
In the message list, select the messages you want to delete.
+
Click Delete. Mail & Newsgroups moves the messages to the Trash
+ folder.
+
+
+
To recover messages from the Trash:

Address books store email addresses and contact information for people you
+ typically send mail to, such as colleagues, friends, and family.
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups provides you with two address books:
+ the Personal Address Book and the Collected Addresses—and you can
+ create additional address books as well. You can also import address books
+ from other mail programs and previous versions of &brandShortName;. The
+ contents of these address books are stored locally on your hard disk.
+
+
Your address book may also list email addresses from an LDAP directory,
+ which is located on an LDAP directory server. The directory server stores
+ email addresses of people that are not included in your locally-stored
+ address books. The Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an
+ industry-standard method for accessing Internet or intranet directory
+ services such as corporate address books.
+
+
Personal Address Book
+
+
Use the Personal Address Book to add specific names of your choice. You can
+ create mailing lists and edit individual address entries.
+
+
Collected Addresses
+
+
By default, the Collected Addresses automatically collects the email
+ addresses contained in outgoing mail messages. Addresses from outgoing
+ messages are stored in the Collected Addresses as soon as you click Send.
+
+
LDAP Directory (if available)
+
+
An LDAP directory (also known as an address lookup service) stores email
+ addresses of recipients who are not in your locally-stored address books.
+ LDAP directories offer you access to large, centrally maintained databases
+ of email addresses, which is especially useful with
+ address
+ autocompletion.
+
+
Automatic address collection is enabled by default. To change automatic
+ address collection settings, begin in the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+

If you have a &brandShortName; address book from another user profile or
+ computer, or if you have an address book from another mail program, you can
+ import its entries into the Address Book window as a new address book. Keep
+ in mind that when you upgrade a user profile from an earlier version of
+ &brandShortName;, your address books are automatically included, so
+ there's no need to import them.
+
+
You can import address books from Netscape 6, Netscape 7, Eudora, Outlook,
+ Outlook Express, or text files (LDIF, tab-delimited (.tab), comma-separated
+ (.csv), or text (.txt) formats). When you import an address book, Mail &
+ Newsgroups creates a new address book with the imported entries.
You can export a &brandShortName; address book if you later want to import
+ it into another user profile, move it to another computer, or use it with
+ another program that can import address books. You can export an address
+ book to one of these file formats: &brandShortName; (.ldif), tab-delimited
+ (.tab), comma-separated (.csv), or text (.txt) formats.
+

Users with IMAP mail accounts can share mail folders with other users on the
+ same network. Sharing folders allows several users to see and work with the
+ same messages, similar to a newsgroup. To use shared folders, your IMAP mail
+ server must support Access Control List (ACL) management. Check with your
+ system administrator or help desk if you are not sure that shared folders
+ are supported by your IMAP mail server.

+ message recipients that they can subscribe to the shared folder by clicking
+ the link you pasted into the message.
+
+
Only message recipients who share the same network will be able to
+ subscribe to your shared folder.
+
+
Click Send.
+
+
+
Subscribing to a Shared Folder
+
+
Subscribing to a shared folder is similar to subscribing to a newsgroup. To
+ subscribe to a shared folder, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe. You see the Subscribe dialog
+ box.
+
If necessary, click the Account drop-down list to choose another IMAP
+ mail account.
+
Select the folder that you want to subscribe to.
+
Click Subscribe or click in the Subscribe column next to the folder. You
+ see a checkmark next to each folder to which you subscribe. Click
+ Unsubscribe to cancel a selection.
+
Click OK. The list of your subscribed folders appears in the Mail
+ window.
You can apply tags to messages to help you organize and prioritize them.
+ You can apply a standard color and tag text to messages, or you can create
+ your own color and tag text to suit your needs.
+
+
One powerful way to use tags is to set up a message filter to
+ automatically tag incoming messages from a specific sender. For example,
+ you can set up a message filter so that incoming messages from your boss are
+ tagged Important and appear in red. See
+ Creating Message Filters for more
+ information.
+
+
Applying a Tag
+
+
To apply a tag to a message, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the message you want to tag.
+
Open the Message menu, and choose Tag.
+
Choose the tag you want to apply from the list.
+
+
+
The message summary row changes to the color of the tag with the topmost
+ priority. To see the tag text, you must display the Tags column in the Mail
+ window.
+
+
Tip: To quickly tag messages or remove a tag, select
+ one or more messages and press one of the number keys 1-9 on your keyboard.
+ Press 0 to remove all tags.
+
+
To display the Tags column, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the Show/Hide Columns icon
+ and select Tags from the list.
+
+
+
Note: Message tags apply on a per-account basis. For
+ example, if you move or copy a tagged message to another mail account, the
+ tags are not preserved. Similarly, if you forward a tagged message to
+ another recipient, the tags are not preserved. For IMAP mail accounts, if
+ your IMAP server supports user-defined keywords, message tags will persist
+ when you log in to your mail account from a different location.
You can customize tag colors and text and their order to suit your needs.
+
+
To customize tags, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Tags. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list.)
+
Edit the tag text, or replace it with your own tag text. The tag
+ can be up to 32 characters long.
+
To change the tag color, click the color block next to that tag and
+ select a new color.
+
Click the Move Up and Move Down buttons to reorder the tags. Tags at
+ the top will have higher priority when coloring messages.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Your changes are immediately applied to all tagged messages in all your
+ mail accounts.
+
+
Tip: To undo all customizations and restore just the
+ default tags' text and colors, follow the steps above to display the tag
+ settings, and click Restore Defaults.
You might want to mark a message you've read as unread if you later
+ want to re-read the message or respond to it.
+
+
To mark a message as unread, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select a Mail or Newsgroup folder to display its messages.
+
Click in the Read column of each message you want to mark as unread.
+ Messages marked as unread display a symbol in the Read column. Messages marked as read display a
+ symbol in the Read column. If the
+ Read column is not visible, click the Show/Hide Columns icon
+ and select Read from the list.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+

You can flag messages that you later want to download for
+ offline
+ use.
+
+
To flag messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select a Mail or Newsgroup folder to display its messages.
+
Click in the Flag column of each message you want to download. A flag
+ appears where you clicked to
+ indicate that the message has been flagged. If the Flag column is not
+ visible, click the Show/Hide Columns icon and select Flag from the list.

Creating a Custom View
+
+
You can create custom message views to only display messages matching
+ certain criteria.
+
+
To change or create a custom message view:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Messages, and then choose Customize.
+
To create a new view, click New. To modify a view, select a view and
+ click Edit.
+
Type a name for the message view.
+
Select the matching option you want Mail to use: all of the
+ following conditions (criteria) you choose, or any of the
+ following.
+
Use the drop-down lists to choose the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject, Sender, contains, doesn't
+ contain) and then type the text or phrase you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click More to add criteria and Fewer to remove them.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings.
+
Click OK in the Customize Message Views dialog box. The selected view
+ setting applies automatically.
Message filters allow you to manage and organize your messages. You can
+ create message filters that &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups uses to
+ automatically perform certain actions on incoming messages based on criteria
+ you specify. For example, you can create a message filter that automatically
+ moves incoming messages to a particular folder. Message filters operate on a
+ per-account basis.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Message Filters dialog box, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Message Filters. You see the Message
+ Filters dialog box.
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, choose the one to which you want to
+ apply the filter.
+
Click New. You use the Filter Rules dialog box to specify the types of
+ messages to act on, and the actions you want the filter to perform.
+
Type a name for the filter.
+
Select when you want the filter to be applied. This setting enables you
+ to define some filters to be applied in an automatic way (when checking
+ mail), on demand (manually run), or both. After classification means
+ that junk and phishing controls will be run before applying the
+ filter.
+
Select the matching option you want Mail to use: all of the
+ following conditions (criteria) you choose, any of the
+ following conditions you choose, or all messages.
+
Use the drop-down lists to choose the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject, Sender, contains, doesn't
+ contain) and then type the text or phrase you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click + to add criteria and - to remove them.
+
Use the list to choose the action you want the filter to perform on the
+ messages (for example, Move Message To). Use + and - to add
+ or remove additional actions.
+
+
Tip: To automatically tag incoming messages, choose
+ Tag Message from the drop-down list.
+
+
Tip: Message filters are applied one after another. It
+ could be that you don't want all filters to be run if one or more
+ messages match some conditions. For instance, you may want to tag all
+ messages from your boss's email address as Important, and
+ you may want all messages containing the word Memorandum in their
+ subject to be moved to a folder named Pending Reads, but you
+ don't want any message from your boss to be moved to another folder,
+ even if it contains Memorandum in the subject. So the first
+ message filter you define should match your boss's email address,
+ and would contain two actions: Tag Message as Important and
+ Stop Filter Execution.
+
+
If you have chosen Move or Copy message to a folder, then
+ select a destination folder in which to store the messages, or create a
+ new folder.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings.
+
To run filters on existing messages in a folder, select the folder
+ in the bottom dropdown list and click the Run Now button.
+
Click OK in the Message Filters dialog box. The filter begins filtering
+ incoming messages as soon as you click OK.
+
+
+
Note: You can also run message filters manually at any
+ time. In the Mail window, choose Tools, and then select Run Filters on Folder
+ to apply filters to the current folder, or Run Filters on Message to apply
+ filters to the selected message (if any).
+
+
To manage your filters, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Message Filters. You see the Message
+ Filters dialog box.
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, choose the one to which you want to
+ apply the filter.
+
Choose from the following:
+
+
To turn a filter on or off: Click the checkbox to
+ the right of the filter name to enable it, or click it again to turn it
+ off.
+
To edit a filter: Select the filter name and click
+ Edit (or double-click the filter name). Use the Filter Rules dialog box
+ to make your changes.
+
To delete a filter: Select the filter name and click
+ Delete.
+
To change the order in which filters are applied: In
+ the filter list, click a filter's name, and click Move Up
+ or Move Down to move it.
+
+
Note: Filters are applied to each incoming message
+ in the order you choose, until a filter action results in the message
+ being deleted or moved from the Inbox folder.
+
+
+
+
Click OK when you are done managing your filters. If you created a new
+ filter, it begins filtering incoming messages as soon as you click OK.
+
+
+
Note: If you delete a folder that you've been using to
+ store filtered messages, the filter will no longer work. Incoming messages
+ that match the filter criteria will appear in your Inbox. If you rename or
+ move the folder, the filter will automatically update to use the renamed or
+ moved folder.
+
+
Tip: If you have existing messages that you want to move to
+ another folder, use the Run Filters on Messages option in the Tools menu.
You can quickly create a filter for messages from a particular sender. For
+ example, if you want to automatically move all incoming messages from your
+ child's teacher into a folder called School, you can quickly set
+ up a filter to do this.
+
+
To create a filter for messages from a specific sender, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Select a message from a specific sender.
+
Open the Message menu and choose Create Filter From Message. Or, in the
+ message header pane, right click the sender name and choose Create Filter
+ From.
+
You see the Filter Rules dialog box. Using the sender's email
+ address, &brandShortName; prefills the filter matching criteria and the
+ filter action (Move Message to). You can change or add new rules to the
+ matching criteria.
+
Choose a destination folder in which to store the incoming messages from
+ the specified sender, or create a new folder. You can also choose other
+ actions for this filter, or change the default one.
+
Note that, if you leave the filter name empty, &brandShortName; will
+ provide a name for it based on the first criterion.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings. You see the
+ Message Filters dialog box, where
+ you can create, delete, or edit message filters.
+
Click OK. The filter begins filtering incoming messages from the
+ specified sender as soon as you click OK.
&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups lets you quickly find text in a
+ single message, search messages by subject or sender, or use a combination of
+ criteria to perform a thorough search through all messages in a specific mail
+ folder, newsgroup, or account.
+
+
To locate text in a single message, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the message, open the Edit menu, and choose Find in This
+ Message.
+
Type the text that you want to locate in the dialog box.
+
Click Find to locate the first occurrence of the text.
+
Continue clicking Find to locate additional occurrences, or click Cancel
+ when you are done.
+
Choose Find Again from the Edit menu to continue searching for the text
+ throughout the rest of the message.
+
+
+
To quickly search for messages in a selected folder by subject or sender,
+ begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
To the right of Subject or Sender contains:, type the subject text
+ or sender name that you want to find. You can type only part of the subject
+ or sender, or you can type the exact word or name that you want to find.
+
+
As soon as you stop typing, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ displays only those messages in the selected folder where the subject or
+ sender contains the search text you entered.
+
+
Click Clear to erase the search text and show all messages in the
+ selected folder.
+
+
+
Searching for Specific Messages
+
+
You can search mail folders or newsgroups for specific messages. If you are
+ not already viewing the Search Messages dialog box, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Search Messages. You see the Search
+ Messages dialog box.
+
Next to Search for messages in, choose the account, newsgroup, or
+ folder through which you want to search.
+
Select Search subfolders to include all subfolders in the
+ search.
+
Select Search local system to search only messages from newsgroups
+ or IMAP accounts that have been saved locally.
+
+
Note: The checkbox will be disabled if it's not
+ possible to search remotely stored messages.
+
+
Select which matching option Mail & Newsgroups will use to search for
+ messages that match all or at least one of the conditions (criteria) that
+ you choose.
+
Use the drop-down lists to indicate the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject and contains) and then type the text or phrase that
+ you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click More to add criteria and Fewer to remove them.
+
Click Search to begin, or click Clear to reset your entries. The search
+ results appear in lower part of the Search Messages dialog box.
+
+
To open a message so you can read it, select the message and click
+ Open, or double-click the message.
+
To sort the messages in a different order, click the column that you
+ want to sort by.
+
To move or copy a message in the Results area to another folder,
+ select the message and then choose the destination folder from the File
+ drop-down list. If the destination folder is within the same account,
+ the message is moved to that folder. If the destination folder is
+ within a different account, the message is copied to that folder.
+
To delete a message in the Results area, select the message and then
+ click Delete.
+
To open the folder where the message is stored, select the message
+ and click Open Message Folder.
&brandShortName;'s Junk Mail Controls feature can evaluate your
+ incoming messages and identify possible junk (or unsolicited) messages. The
+ feature uses the Bayesian classification method. You first train
+ &brandShortName; by showing it a bunch of mail that is junk, and a bunch of
+ mail that is not. Then, you let it auto-classify new mail for you. If
+ &brandShortName; makes any mistakes, you can correct them.
+
+
To use Junk Mail Controls:
+
+
+
First, train &brandShortName; to recognize Junk messages and Non-Junk
+ messages. There are three ways to toggle junk status of the selected
+ message(s):
+
+
Open the Message menu, select Mark and choose As Junk
+ or As Not Junk.
+
Click on the Junk toolbar button.
+
+
+
Click to toggle the Junk Status column in the message list. (If you
+ do not see it, click the right-most button (
+ ) in the list header bar and
+ select Junk Status from the pop-up menu.)
+
+
+
+
When you toggle junk status, a trash-can icon will appear or disappear
+ in the Junk status column to indicate the junk status of the selected
+ message.
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
+ You see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Click the Junk Settings category for your mail account.
+
Enable the feature and &brandShortName; will automatically classify
+ incoming messages. (See
+ Junk Mail Controls Options.
+ Details on the other settings there can be found in the
+ Junk Settings
+ preference panel description.)
+
+
If you have trained it on virus mail, consider disabling the white
+ listing (many mail viruses send bulk messages to people in the address book
+ of the infected computer).
+
Make sure to correct the Junk Mail Controls when it incorrectly labels
+ messages either as junk or not junk.
+
To analyze existing messages, select messages, open the Tools menu
+ and choose Run Junk Mail Controls.
+
+
+
Note: &brandShortName; will only run Junk Mail Controls
+ when the training database has information on non-Junk messages. If Junk Mail
+ Controls do not work, select some messages and explicitly mark them as Not
+ Junk.
Junk Mail Controls run after mail filters (unless you set the filter to run
+ after classification, where classification includes junk and phishing
+ scanning) and apply only to the Inbox folder and its sub-folders. Use this to
+ your advantage, for example, you can filter mail you are sure not to be Junk
+ to a special folder outside of Inbox so that the messages will not be
+ classified as Junk (especially useful if you subscribe to newsletters or if
+ you are on a moderated mailing list).
Phishing is a particularly common fraudulent business scheme in which
+ a party creates counterfeit websites designed to trick recipients into
+ divulging personal data such as credit card numbers, account usernames,
+ passwords and social security numbers. Hijacking brand names of banks,
+ e-retailers and credit card companies, phishers often convince
+ recipients to respond.
+
+
In many cases, you'll receive a link to a phishing page via an email
+ which claims to come from an official-looking address. You can also end up
+ at these pages by following links that you find on the Web or in IM
+ messages.
+
+
Tip: Since a forged URL
+ can look very similar to a genuine one, it's safer to use a bookmark
+ you've created or to type the URL into the location bar by hand instead
+ of following a link in an email message. Always consider the risk of a forged
+ URL if you're asked to log in or provide private information on a
+ website.
+
+
&brandShortName; Mail phishing detector is enabled by default. When it
+ encounters a mail which seems to be scam, it will show a warning bar in the
+ message window.
+
+
If you think that the email is a valid one, you can click on the Not
+ Scam button, and the warning bar will disappear.
+
+
When a user clicks on a link in an email that appears to be a phishing URL,
+ &brandShortName; will prompt the user with a dialog box before the website
+ is opened.
+
+
This prompt will appear if either of the following is true: the host name of
+ the actual URL is an IP address, or
+ the link text is a URL whose host name does not match the host name of the
+ actual URL.
+
+
Note: Phishing detection has a higher precedence than Junk
+ Mail detection.
This section describes how to import mail messages and settings from
+ Netscape Communicator, Outlook, Outlook Express, and Eudora. To import
+ address books from these programs, see
+ Importing Address Books.
To import mail messages from Netscape Communicator, Outlook, Outlook
+ Express, or Eudora, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu, and choose Import. You see the Import Wizard.
+
Follow the instructions to import mail messages.
+
+
+
For Netscape Communicator, the wizard imports a copy of all Communicator
+ mail folders included under Local Folders. Imported mail is added as a new
+ folder under Local Folders in the Mail window. (The Communicator mail
+ folders still remain in their original location).
If you have set up an account on a
+ newsgroup server, you can join (subscribe) to newsgroups (also called
+ discussion groups).
+
+
To subscribe to a newsgroup, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe. You see the Subscribe dialog
+ box.

+ You see a checkmark next to each newsgroup to which you subscribe. Click
+ Unsubscribe to cancel a selection.
+
Click OK. The list of your subscribed newsgroups appears in the Mail
+ window.
+
+
+
If you are an IMAP mail user, you can also subscribe to message folders
+ located on an IMAP server. (Your Inbox is a type of message folder.) Follow
+ the instructions above for subscribing, but select an IMAP account from the
+ Account drop-down list. For more information on sharing folders and
+ subscribing to folders, see
+ Sharing Folders With Other Users
+ (IMAP Only).
When you open your newsgroup server, you see the list of newsgroups to which
+ you subscribe. The server downloads the headers of new messages in
+ each newsgroup.
+
+
To read newsgroup messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Double-click a newsgroup server icon to see its newsgroups. (If there are
+ no newsgroups, you may need to subscribe to one.)
+
Click a newsgroup name to see its messages.
+
Click a message to read it. Click the thread button to display all the
+ responses below the original message. You can click any header to display
+ its message. You can start a new
+ thread or post a
+ message in response.
To monitor unread messages in threads that are of interest to you:
+
+
+
Select a message in a thread.
+
Open the Message menu, and choose Watch Thread.
+
If you want to monitor additional threads, repeat steps 1 and 2 for
+ messages in additional threads.
+
When you're ready to monitor messages in these threads, open the
+ View menu, choose Messages, and then choose Watched Threads with Unread.
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups only displays the watched threads
+ that contain unread messages.
+
Open the View menu, choose Messages, and then choose All to return to
+ viewing all messages in the newsgroup.
+
+
+
To ignore a message thread:
+
+
+
Select a message in the thread.
+
Open the Message menu, and choose Ignore Thread. &brandShortName; Mail
+ & Newsgroups marks all messages in the thread as read, and new replies
+ posted to the thread will appear as read.
+
To view ignored threads, open the View menu, choose Messages, and then
+ choose Ignored Threads.
If the newsgroup you want to subscribe to is on a different server, you must
+ first set up access to that server.
+
+
To set up an additional newsgroup server, open the File menu in the Mail
+ window and choose New, then Account.
+
+
+
Using the Account Wizard, indicate that the new account you want to set
+ up is a newsgroup account.
+
+
+
Once you've set up access to the new server, you can
+ subscribe to newsgroups on that
+ server. In the Mail window, open the File menu, and choose Subscribe.
To subscribe to a feed, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Get into the Feed
+ Subscriptions dialog. There are several ways to do this:
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds
+ account to manage, then click in the Manage Subscriptions in the right
+ pane.
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds
+ account to manage, or a feed inside it, then open the File menu and
+ choose Subscribe.
+
In the accounts pane, right click your desired Blogs
+ & News Feeds account to manage and choose Subscribe...
+
Open the Edit menu and select the Mail & Newsgroups Account
+ Settings option. In the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog,
+ click on a Blogs & News Feeds account main section, and then
+ click the Manage Subscriptions... button.
+
+
+
Once in the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click the Add button. The Feed
+ properties dialog will appear.
+
Type (or copy and paste) the feed URL into the Feed URL field.
+
Click Store articles in dropdown list to choose the item list
+ where you want the articles to be stored. This allows you to merge
+ multiple feeds in one list item.
+
Set Show the article summary instead of loading the web page to
+ display a brief summary that blog feeds usually include for each article.
+
+
Tip: Showing the article summary reduces the bandwidth
+ traffic and is faster, since the summary is already downloaded when the
+ feed is checked for new items. However, if you usually are interested in
+ the full article, you will save time by unchecking this option.
Subscribing to blogs
+ & news feeds from a browser window
+
+
While browsing the web using &brandShortName;, you may find the Feed
+ discovery icon () while visiting a web page. You
+ can click on it to see a list of available feeds and choose one to get it
+ added to your first Blogs & News Feeds account.
When you open your Blogs & News account, you see the list of feeds to
+ which you subscribed. &brandShortName; checks and downloads every feed for
+ new messages.
+
+
To read blogs & news messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Double-click a blogs & news account to see its feeds. (If there are
+ no feeds, you may need to subscribe to one.)
+
Click a feed name to see its messages.
+
Click a message to read it. The header will show the original URL of the
+ article, which you can click to open a browser window with the
+ corresponding webpage.
+
+
+
Depending on your settings for the Blogs & News account and each
+ individual feed, the message will be shown in its summarized view or the
+ full view. You can change it by choosing the menu option View, and then Feed
+ Message Body As. You can then select one of these options:
+
+
+
Web Page: Select this to show the full web page of this
+ message.
+
Summary: Select this to show the summarized, short
+ version of this message.
+
Default format: Select this to show the article in its
+ default format, as specified in the feed options or, otherwise, the Blogs
+ & News account.
To post a blog message, you need an account in the corresponding blog. Also,
+ there is no standardized way to post blog messages, so you won't
+ normally be able to post messages from &brandShortName; Mail component.
+ Instead, you will need to open a browser window, log in to your blog account
+ and use the web interface.
+
+
Some blog systems, however, allow posting blog messages by sending an email
+ message to a specific address. You will need to find out if your blog service
+ implements this feature, and the correct email address to use.
Since there is no standardized way to add comments to a blog post, you will
+ usually need to open a browser window and use the web interface.
+
+
Some blog systems, however, allow adding comments by sending an email
+ message to a specific address. You will need to find out if the blog service
+ implements this feature, and the correct email address to use.
If you have set up a
+ Blogs & News
+ account, you can export or import Blogs & News feed collections using
+ the OPML format (Outline Processor Markup Language).
+
+
To export the feeds in your selected blogs & news account, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click the Export button. The Export
+ feeds as an OPML file dialog will appear.
+
Select the directory and filename to save the OPML file, and click
+ Save.
+
+
+
To import the feeds in your selected blogs & news account, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click the Import button. The Select
+ OPML file to import dialog will appear.
+
Select the directory and filename to load the OPML file, and click
+ Save.
+
All the feeds defined in the OPML file will be added to your blogs &
+ feeds account.
If you want to change the properties of one of the feeds in your blogs &
+ news account, you can edit it.
+
+
To edit a feed in your selected blogs & news account, begin from the
+ Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click on a feed in the feed list. You
+ may need to expand the folders in the feed list to see each individual
+ feed.
+
Click the Edit button. The Feed properties dialog will appear.
+
You can change where you want the articles to be stored clicking the
+ Store articles in dropdown list.
+
You may mark Show the article summary instead of loading the web
+ page to display a brief summary that blog feeds usually include for
+ each article.
+
+
Tip: Showing the article summary reduces the bandwidth
+ traffic and is faster, since the summary is already downloaded when the
+ feed is checked for new items. However, if you usually are interested in
+ the full article, you will save time by unchecking this option.
If you no longer want to follow one of the feeds in your blogs & news
+ account, you can remove it.
+
+
To remove a feed in your selected blogs & news account, begin from the
+ Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News account to
+ manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click on a feed in the feed list. You
+ may need to expand the folders in the feed list to see each individual
+ feed.
+
Click the Remove button. You will be asked to confirm the deletion of the
+ feed.
+
+
+
Note: don't confuse a feed with a folder in a Blogs
+ & News account. Removing a feed doesn't delete the folder in which
+ the feed articles are stored, and thus, such articles will stay in the folder
+ until you delete either the whole folder or the articles themselves. To get
+ a better understanding, see Organizing your
+ feeds later in this section.
A single blogs & news feeds account can contain any number of feeds in
+ it, so you don't strictly need more than one blogs & news feeds
+ account. However, you may want to create several blogs & news feeds
+ accounts. Some reasons to do that are:
+
+
+
You can use different accounts to categorize your feeds. For example, you
+ can create an account named Mozilla News to put in it all your
+ feeds related to Mozilla, and another one named Today Headlines to
+ put in it all your feeds with general news.
+
If you have several accounts, each one can have different settings. This
+ way, you can choose, for example, different time intervals for each account
+ (and, therefore, their feeds.)
The default operation mode when adding a feed to a Blogs & News Feeds
+ account in &brandShortName; is to create a folder and a feed inside it.
+ However, &brandShortName; allows you a great deal of flexibility. This section
+ helps you to better organize your feeds:
Blogs & News Feeds accounts are organized through two main concepts:
+ feeds and folders.
+
+
+
Feeds are sources for articles/posts. They provide
+ the means to get new articles from blogs. You subscribe to feeds.
+
Folders in Blogs & News Feeds accounts work pretty
+ much like in any other account type. Folders store articles/posts you got
+ through the feeds.
+
+
+
You use the Feed Subscriptions dialog to tell &brandShortName; which feed
+ messages are downloaded in which folders. As feeds provide new articles and
+ folders provide the store to put such articles, you will want to have them
+ connected, usually linking a feed to a folder. However, keep in mind that
+ removing a feed will not automatically delete the associated folder, nor
+ will remove the articles/posts from the removed feed, since they are
+ stored into the folder.
You may want to use a single folder to store articles/items coming from
+ more than one feed. To do this, you just need to add additional feeds in
+ that folder. Begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
In the accounts pane, click your desired Blogs & News Feeds account
+ to manage, or a feed inside it.
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe (or use any other of the
+ available methods.
+ to access to the Feed Subscriptions dialog box).
+
In the Feed Subscriptions dialog, click in the desired folder, then click
+ the Add button. The Feed properties dialog will appear.
+
Type (or copy and paste) the feed URL in the Feed URL field.
Setting Up
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups to Work Offline
+
+
&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups' offline feature lets you
+ download your mail and read it offline (while disconnected from the
+ Internet). If you use a dial-up (modem) connection to access your mail and
+ you want to reduce the time you are connected, or, if you need to temporarily
+ disconnect from your company's network while traveling or switching
+ locations, you can download your mail so that you can read it offline. The
+ offline feature can automatically download incoming messages and then later
+ send all your outgoing messages when you reconnect.
+
+
Note that for POP accounts your mail is already downloaded by default, so
+ most of these offline features aren't relevant for POP accounts.
+
+
If you occasionally want to work offline, &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups lets you easily:
+
+
+
Download your Inbox for offline use.
+
Download an individual folder for offline use.
+
Download only selected or flagged messages for offline use.
+
Download directory entries in your address book for offline use.
+
+
+
If you frequently work offline, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups also
+ lets you:
+
+
+
Set up one or more of your accounts for offline use.
+
Set offline and disk space preferences for each account.
+
Select the folders and newsgroups that you want to view offline.
You can tell &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups to automatically
+ download your messages for offline use. Later, when you go back online,
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups automatically synchronizes your
+ messages with the server.
+
+
Note that the Inbox for POP accounts is downloaded by default, so this
+ section does not apply for POP accounts.
+
+
To automatically download your messages for offline use, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
In the left side of the dialog box, under the name of the account you
+ want to use offline, select Synchronization & Storage. (This category
+ is not available for POP accounts.)
+
Check the box labeled Keep messages for this account on this
+ computer.
+
Click OK.
+
Click the Online/Offline indicator
+ in the lower right corner of the Mail window (to the left of the Cookie
+ icon) to go offline. You will be asked to download messages for them to be
+ available while offline. Click on Download to proceed.
+
+
+
Note: This setting also applies to any new folders
+ created. While the per-account setting can be overridden for an
+ individual
+ folder, those per-folder settings are removed when the
+ Keep messages box is toggled.
+
+
&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups automatically downloads all messages
+ in your Inbox so you can read and respond to them while working offline.
+ After disconnecting, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups remains open so
+ you can continue to work with your messages.
+
+
To reconnect to the Internet so you can work online:
+
+
+

+ automatically synchronizes your Inbox messages with the server, by
+ replicating any changes you made while working offline.
+
+
Tip: &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups saves any
+ messages that you send while working offline in the Unsent Messages folder
+ under Local Folders. To have &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ automatically send your unsent messages when you reconnect, use the
+ Preferences command on the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu to change the
+ offline
+ preferences for all your accounts.
Downloading an
+ Individual Folder for Offline Use
+
+

Downloading
+ Selected or Flagged Messages for Offline Use
+
+
Note that messages are downloaded by default for POP accounts. However, if
+ you have enabled the Fetch headers only setting in the POP account
+ settings, then only the headers will be downloaded, and you will need to use
+ the commands in this section to download the complete messages.
+
+
To download selected messages for offline use, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Select a Mail or Newsgroup folder to display its messages.
+
Select the messages you want to download, as follows:
+
+
To select a group of adjacent messages, click the first message, and
+ then Shift-click to select the last message in the group.
+

You can download (replicate) the entries in a directory server to your
+ computer so that they are available when you work offline. Once you've
+ downloaded directory entries, you can use the same procedure to update your
+ local copy of the entries with the latest entries on the directory
+ server.
+
+
To download or update an address book LDAP directory for offline use:
+
+
+
Make sure you're online.

+ Properties dialog box appears.
+
Click the Offline tab.
+
Click Download Now to start copying the entries to your computer.
+
If prompted, enter your network user name and password, and click OK to
+ start the download.
+
+
Depending on the number of directory entries, the download process may
+ take a while, so please be patient.
+
+
+
+
After the download finishes, you can work offline and search the directory
+ or use it for address autocompletion when composing messages. After
+ you've been using your local copy of the directory for a while, you may
+ wish to update it to get the latest entries from the directory server. To
+ update your local copy, use the procedure described above.
To set up one or more accounts for working offline, you use the Offline and
+ Disk Space preferences in the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog
+ box. Once set, you don't need to change these preferences each time you
+ want to work offline. The offline and disk space preferences you can set for
+ an account depend on the type of account (IMAP, POP, or Newsgroup).
+
+
Here's a summary of the steps you will follow to set up your accounts
+ for offline use:
+
+
+
For each account that you want to work with while offline, use the Mail
+ & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box to set the Synchronization
+ & Storage preferences for that account. You must select the items
+ (folders and newsgroups) that you want to download for offline use. See
+ Selecting Items for Offline
+ Viewing for more information.
+
+
Once set, you don't need to change these settings. See the sections
+ below for information on setting offline and disk space preferences for
+ IMAP,
+ POP,
+ Blogs, and
+ Newsgroup
+ accounts.
+
+
Tip: To set the Synchronization & Storage
+ preferences for the current account, open the File menu, choose Offline,
+ and then choose Offline Settings.
+
+
Open the File menu, choose Offline, and then choose Download/Sync Now
+ from the submenu.
+
Select the type of messages (mail or newsgroup or both) that you want to
+ download.
+
+
Important: You must select at least one category (mail
+ messages or newsgroup messages) in order for the download to work.
+
+
Select Work offline once download and/or sync is complete.
Before you can read mail and newsgroup messages while offline, you must
+ first select them for downloading. You can set up an entire account for
+ offline use. You can also choose which folders and newsgroups that you
+ want to use offline.
+
+
Note: Keep in mind that selecting more items may increase
+ download time and disk space used.
+
+
To select accounts, folders, and newsgroups for offline viewing, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Choose the Synchronization & Storage category for the account you
+ want to change.
+
Click Advanced to see your IMAP folders, or Select newsgroups
+ for offline use for your subscribed newsgroups.
+
+
Note: You see only the newsgroups and folders that
+ you've already subscribed
+ to. POP accounts and local mail folders don't appear in the
+ list.
+
+
Select the items (folders, newsgroups) that you want to make available
+ for offline use.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Once set, you don't need to change these settings each time you want to
+ go offline. However, if you do want to change them, you can easily do so
+ before going offline, since the same Select button is available when using
+ the Download and
+ Sync command.
If you have already selected mail folders and newsgroups for offline use,
+ you are now ready to download and synchronize them. If you haven't yet
+ selected items to download, you can choose them before you go offline.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Download/Sync Now dialog box, follow
+ these steps:
+
+
To download and synchronize your messages, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the File menu, choose Offline, and then choose Download/Sync
+ Now.
+
Select the categories (mail messages or newsgroup messages) that you want
+ to download.
+
+
Important: You must select at least one category (Mail
+ messages, Newsgroup messages) in order for the download to work. If the
+ checkboxes are disabled, it means that you haven't yet selected
+ items to download. Use the Select button to select items to download.
+
+
To send messages in your Unsent Messages folder before going offline,
+ check Send Unsent Messages.
+
To go offline immediately after &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ finishes downloading, select Work offline once download and/or sync is
+ complete.
+
To set or change the items to download, click Select. See
+ Selecting Items for Offline
+ Viewing for more information. You can skip this step if you've
+ already selected items for download.
+
Click OK. &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups begins downloading the
+ selected items.
+
+
+
If you chose to work offline once the download completes, then
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups immediately switches to offline mode.
+ Otherwise, when you are ready to go offline, click the Online/Offline
+ indicator in the lower right corner of
+ the Mail window to go offline.
To work offline and reconnect later, begin from the Mail window.
+
+
When you are ready to work offline:
+
+
+
Click the online/offline indicator
+ in the lower-right corner of the Mail window. Mail & Newsgroups prompts
+ you to download messages, if you want, before going offline.
+
Click Download to download messages before going offline. If you want to
+ work offline without downloading messages, click Don't Download.
+
+
+
Note: Message headers that have been downloaded for reading
+ offline display a darker gray envelope or newsgroup icon.
+
+
Tip: To set &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups'
+ download behavior when going offline, open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu, choose Preferences, and then under the Mail & Newsgroups category,
+ select Network & Storage (if no subcategories are visible, double-click
+ Mail & Newsgroups to expand the list). You can choose to have
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups prompt you to download messages when
+ going offline, to automatically download messages, or to not download any
+ messages.
+
+
To reconnect and synchronize your messages:
+
+
+
Click the online/offline indicator in the lower-right corner of any &brandShortName; window.
+
Open the File menu, choose Offline, and then choose Download/Sync
+ Now.
+
+
+
&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups synchronizes your messages with the
+ server by replicating any changes you made while working offline.
+
+
Tip: To set &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups'
+ behavior when going online, open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu, choose Preferences, and then choose the Synchronization & Storage
+ category. You can choose to have &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ prompt you to send unsent messages, to automatically send unsent messages,
+ or to not send unsent messages.
You can copy a folder and its contents to another mail account, or move a
+ folder within the same mail account.
+
+
To move or copy a folder, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the folder you want to move or copy.
+
Do one of the following:
+
+
To move the folder under another folder within the same account, drag
+ the folder over the name of the other folder. The folder you moved
+ becomes a subfolder of the other folder.
+
To copy the folder to another account, drag the folder over the name
+ of another account.
+
To copy the folder under another folder in another account, drag the
+ folder over the name of another folder in another account. The folder
+ you copied becomes a subfolder of the other folder.
You can move messages from one folder to another by using either of these
+ methods:
+
+
+
Select the message, click the File button on the toolbar, and choose the
+ destination folder.
+
Drag and drop messages into the desired folder.
+
+
Note: If you drag and drop a message from an IMAP or
+ POP mail server folder to a local folder on your hard drive, the message
+ is moved to the local folder and removed from the server folder.
+
+
+
+
To copy a message from one folder to another:
+
+
+
Select the message and right-click to display the pop-up menu.
+
Select Copy To and then select the destination account and folder
+ from the drop-down list.
+
+
+
Tip: Alternatively, you can copy a message between folders
+ by holding down the Shift key while dragging the message from the message
+ list over another folder.
Users with IMAP mail accounts can share mail folders with other users on the
+ same network. Sharing folders allows several users to see and work with the
+ same messages, similar to a newsgroup. To use shared folders, your IMAP mail
+ server must support Access Control List (ACL) management. Check with your
+ system administrator or help desk if you are not sure that shared folders
+ are supported by your IMAP mail server.
+
+
To share a mail folder with other users on your network, or to view sharing
+ information for a folder, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Within an IMAP account, select a folder that you want to share, or select
+ a folder whose sharing privileges you want to view.
+
+
Folders listed under Local Folders, or folders listed under a POP mail
+ account cannot be shared.
+
+
Open the Edit menu, and choose Folder Properties.
+
Click the Sharing tab.
+
Click Privileges. You may be prompted to enter your network user name and
+ password.
+
+
The Privileges button is only available if the IMAP mail server allows
+ you to set folder sharing privileges. If this button is not available,
+ you can view the folder sharing privileges for this folder but cannot
+ change them.
+
+
Follow the instructions on the screen to add users and to set their
+ folder access privileges.
+
+
Read privileges: Users can read messages and copy
+ their contents, but they cannot modify or delete messages, or copy
+ messages into the folder. Users can flag messages as read or unread.
+ See Marking or Flagging
+ Messages for instructions on flagging messages.
+
Read and Write privileges: In addition to Read
+ privileges, users can modify and delete messages. Users can also copy
+ or move messages into the folder.
+
Manage privileges: In addition to Read and Write
+ privileges, users can add and remove users and change their folder
+ permissions.
+
+
+
Click OK to confirm your changes.
+
Click OK to close the Folder Properties dialog box.
+
+
+
In the list of folders for your mail account, a shared folder displays a
+ distinctive folder icon to indicate that it is shared.
+
+
To send a message that tells others how they can subscribe to your shared
+ folder, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the shared folder.
+
Right-click to display a pop-up menu, and choose Copy Folder
+ Location.
+
Click Compose to display a Mail compose window.
+
Click in the message body, open the Edit menu, and choose Paste.
+
Address the message, type a subject, and type the message text. Tell
+ message recipients that they can subscribe to the shared folder by clicking
+ the link you pasted into the message.
+
+
Only message recipients who share the same network will be able to
+ subscribe to your shared folder.
+
+
Click Send.
+
+
+
Subscribing to a Shared Folder
+
+
Subscribing to a shared folder is similar to subscribing to a newsgroup. To
+ subscribe to a shared folder, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Subscribe. You see the Subscribe dialog
+ box.
+
If necessary, click the Account drop-down list to choose another IMAP
+ mail account.
+
Select the folder that you want to subscribe to.
+
Click Subscribe or click in the Subscribe column next to the folder. You
+ see a checkmark next to each folder to which you subscribe. Click
+ Unsubscribe to cancel a selection.
+
Click OK. The list of your subscribed folders appears in the Mail
+ window.
You can apply tags to messages to help you organize and prioritize them.
+ You can apply a standard color and tag text to messages, or you can create
+ your own color and tag text to suit your needs.
+
+
One powerful way to use tags is to set up a message filter to
+ automatically tag incoming messages from a specific sender. For example,
+ you can set up a message filter so that incoming messages from your boss are
+ tagged Important and appear in red. See
+ Creating Message Filters for more
+ information.
+
+
Applying a Tag
+
+
To apply a tag to a message, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the message you want to tag.
+
Open the Message menu, and choose Tag.
+
Choose the tag you want to apply from the list.
+
+
+
The message summary row changes to the color of the tag with the topmost
+ priority. To see the tag text, you must display the Tags column in the Mail
+ window.
+
+
Tip: To quickly tag messages or remove a tag, select
+ one or more messages and press one of the number keys 1-9 on your keyboard.
+ Press 0 to remove all tags.
+
+
To display the Tags column, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the Show/Hide Columns icon
+ and select Tags from the list.
+
+
+
Note: Message tags apply on a per-account basis. For
+ example, if you move or copy a tagged message to another mail account, the
+ tags are not preserved. Similarly, if you forward a tagged message to
+ another recipient, the tags are not preserved. For IMAP mail accounts, if
+ your IMAP server supports user-defined keywords, message tags will persist
+ when you log in to your mail account from a different location.
You can customize tag colors and text and their order to suit your needs.
+
+
To customize tags, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Tags. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list.)
+
Edit the tag text, or replace it with your own tag text. The tag
+ can be up to 32 characters long.
+
To change the tag color, click the color block next to that tag and
+ select a new color.
+
Click the Move Up and Move Down buttons to reorder the tags. Tags at
+ the top will have higher priority when coloring messages.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Your changes are immediately applied to all tagged messages in all your
+ mail accounts.
+
+
Tip: To undo all customizations and restore just the
+ default tags' text and colors, follow the steps above to display the tag
+ settings, and click Restore Defaults.
You might want to mark a message you've read as unread if you later

To mark a message as unread, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select a Mail or Newsgroup folder to display its messages.
+
Click in the Read column of each message you want to mark as unread.
+ Messages marked as unread display a symbol in the Read column. Messages marked as read display a

Creating a Custom View
+
+
You can create custom message views to only display messages matching
+ certain criteria.
+
+
To change or create a custom message view:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Messages, and then choose Customize.
+
To create a new view, click New. To modify a view, select a view and
+ click Edit.
+
Type a name for the message view.
+
Select the matching option you want Mail to use: all of the
+ following conditions (criteria) you choose, or any of the
+ following.
+
Use the drop-down lists to choose the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject, Sender, contains, doesn't
+ contain) and then type the text or phrase you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click More to add criteria and Fewer to remove them.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings.
+
Click OK in the Customize Message Views dialog box. The selected view
+ setting applies automatically.
Message filters allow you to manage and organize your messages. You can
+ create message filters that &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups uses to
+ automatically perform certain actions on incoming messages based on criteria
+ you specify. For example, you can create a message filter that automatically
+ moves incoming messages to a particular folder. Message filters operate on a
+ per-account basis.
+
+
If you are not already viewing the Message Filters dialog box, begin from
+ the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Message Filters. You see the Message
+ Filters dialog box.
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, choose the one to which you want to
+ apply the filter.
+
Click New. You use the Filter Rules dialog box to specify the types of
+ messages to act on, and the actions you want the filter to perform.
+
Type a name for the filter.
+
Select when you want the filter to be applied. This setting enables you
+ to define some filters to be applied in an automatic way (when checking
+ mail), on demand (manually run), or both. After classification means
+ that junk and phishing controls will be run before applying the
+ filter.
+
Select the matching option you want Mail to use: all of the
+ following conditions (criteria) you choose, any of the
+ following conditions you choose, or all messages.
+
Use the drop-down lists to choose the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject, Sender, contains, doesn't
+ contain) and then type the text or phrase you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click + to add criteria and - to remove them.
+
Use the list to choose the action you want the filter to perform on the
+ messages (for example, Move Message To). Use + and - to add
+ or remove additional actions.
+
+
Tip: To automatically tag incoming messages, choose
+ Tag Message from the drop-down list.
+
+
Tip: Message filters are applied one after another. It
+ could be that you don't want all filters to be run if one or more
+ messages match some conditions. For instance, you may want to tag all
+ messages from your boss's email address as Important, and
+ you may want all messages containing the word Memorandum in their
+ subject to be moved to a folder named Pending Reads, but you
+ don't want any message from your boss to be moved to another folder,
+ even if it contains Memorandum in the subject. So the first
+ message filter you define should match your boss's email address,
+ and would contain two actions: Tag Message as Important and
+ Stop Filter Execution.
+
+
If you have chosen Move or Copy message to a folder, then
+ select a destination folder in which to store the messages, or create a
+ new folder.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings.
+
To run filters on existing messages in a folder, select the folder
+ in the bottom dropdown list and click the Run Now button.
+
Click OK in the Message Filters dialog box. The filter begins filtering
+ incoming messages as soon as you click OK.
+
+
+
Note: You can also run message filters manually at any
+ time. In the Mail window, choose Tools, and then select Run Filters on Folder
+ to apply filters to the current folder, or Run Filters on Message to apply
+ filters to the selected message (if any).
+
+
To manage your filters, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Message Filters. You see the Message
+ Filters dialog box.
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, choose the one to which you want to
+ apply the filter.
+
Choose from the following:
+
+
To turn a filter on or off: Click the checkbox to
+ the right of the filter name to enable it, or click it again to turn it
+ off.
+
To edit a filter: Select the filter name and click
+ Edit (or double-click the filter name). Use the Filter Rules dialog box
+ to make your changes.
+
To delete a filter: Select the filter name and click
+ Delete.
+
To change the order in which filters are applied: In
+ the filter list, click a filter's name, and click Move Up
+ or Move Down to move it.
+
+
Note: Filters are applied to each incoming message
+ in the order you choose, until a filter action results in the message
+ being deleted or moved from the Inbox folder.
+
+
+
+
Click OK when you are done managing your filters. If you created a new
+ filter, it begins filtering incoming messages as soon as you click OK.
+
+
+
Note: If you delete a folder that you've been using to
+ store filtered messages, the filter will no longer work. Incoming messages
+ that match the filter criteria will appear in your Inbox. If you rename or
+ move the folder, the filter will automatically update to use the renamed or
+ moved folder.
+
+
Tip: If you have existing messages that you want to move to
+ another folder, use the Run Filters on Messages option in the Tools menu.
You can quickly create a filter for messages from a particular sender. For
+ example, if you want to automatically move all incoming messages from your
+ child's teacher into a folder called School, you can quickly set
+ up a filter to do this.
+
+
To create a filter for messages from a specific sender, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Select a message from a specific sender.
+
Open the Message menu and choose Create Filter From Message. Or, in the
+ message header pane, right click the sender name and choose Create Filter
+ From.
+
You see the Filter Rules dialog box. Using the sender's email
+ address, &brandShortName; prefills the filter matching criteria and the
+ filter action (Move Message to). You can change or add new rules to the
+ matching criteria.
+
Choose a destination folder in which to store the incoming messages from
+ the specified sender, or create a new folder. You can also choose other
+ actions for this filter, or change the default one.
+
Note that, if you leave the filter name empty, &brandShortName; will
+ provide a name for it based on the first criterion.
+
Click OK to confirm your settings. You see the
+ Message Filters dialog box, where
+ you can create, delete, or edit message filters.
+
Click OK. The filter begins filtering incoming messages from the
+ specified sender as soon as you click OK.
&brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups lets you quickly find text in a
+ single message, search messages by subject or sender, or use a combination of
+ criteria to perform a thorough search through all messages in a specific mail
+ folder, newsgroup, or account.
+
+
To locate text in a single message, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Select the message, open the Edit menu, and choose Find in This
+ Message.
+
Type the text that you want to locate in the dialog box.
+
Click Find to locate the first occurrence of the text.
+
Continue clicking Find to locate additional occurrences, or click Cancel
+ when you are done.
+
Choose Find Again from the Edit menu to continue searching for the text
+ throughout the rest of the message.
+
+
+
To quickly search for messages in a selected folder by subject or sender,
+ begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
To the right of Subject or Sender contains:, type the subject text
+ or sender name that you want to find. You can type only part of the subject
+ or sender, or you can type the exact word or name that you want to find.
+
+
As soon as you stop typing, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups
+ displays only those messages in the selected folder where the subject or
+ sender contains the search text you entered.
+
+
Click Clear to erase the search text and show all messages in the
+ selected folder.
+
+
+
Searching for Specific Messages
+
+
You can search mail folders or newsgroups for specific messages. If you are
+ not already viewing the Search Messages dialog box, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Search Messages. You see the Search
+ Messages dialog box.
+
Next to Search for messages in, choose the account, newsgroup, or
+ folder through which you want to search.
+
Select Search subfolders to include all subfolders in the
+ search.
+
Select Search local system to search only messages from newsgroups
+ or IMAP accounts that have been saved locally.
+
+
Note: The checkbox will be disabled if it's not
+ possible to search remotely stored messages.
+
+
Select which matching option Mail & Newsgroups will use to search for
+ messages that match all or at least one of the conditions (criteria) that
+ you choose.
+
Use the drop-down lists to indicate the search criteria (for example,
+ Subject and contains) and then type the text or phrase that
+ you want to match.
+
+
Tip: To search for messages that contain a header not
+ listed in the first drop-down menu (for example, if you want to search
+ for messages that include the header Resent-From), choose Customize and
+ type the header you want to search for. &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups adds your custom header to the drop-down list, so you can then
+ choose it to search for matching entries. Make sure you enter the custom
+ header correctly, since Mail will only find entries that exactly match
+ what you type.
+
+
Click More to add criteria and Fewer to remove them.
+
Click Search to begin, or click Clear to reset your entries. The search
+ results appear in lower part of the Search Messages dialog box.
+
+
To open a message so you can read it, select the message and click
+ Open, or double-click the message.
+
To sort the messages in a different order, click the column that you
+ want to sort by.
+
To move or copy a message in the Results area to another folder,
+ select the message and then choose the destination folder from the File
+ drop-down list. If the destination folder is within the same account,
+ the message is moved to that folder. If the destination folder is
+ within a different account, the message is copied to that folder.
+
To delete a message in the Results area, select the message and then
+ click Delete.
+
To open the folder where the message is stored, select the message
+ and click Open Message Folder.
&brandShortName;'s Junk Mail Controls feature can evaluate your
+ incoming messages and identify possible junk (or unsolicited) messages. The
+ feature uses the Bayesian classification method. You first train
+ &brandShortName; by showing it a bunch of mail that is junk, and a bunch of
+ mail that is not. Then, you let it auto-classify new mail for you. If
+ &brandShortName; makes any mistakes, you can correct them.
+
+
To use Junk Mail Controls:
+
+
+
First, train &brandShortName; to recognize Junk messages and Non-Junk
+ messages. There are three ways to toggle junk status of the selected
+ message(s):
+
+
Open the Message menu, select Mark and choose As Junk
+ or As Not Junk.
+
Click on the Junk toolbar button.
+
+
+
Click to toggle the Junk Status column in the message list. (If you
+ do not see it, click the right-most button (
+ ) in the list header bar and
+ select Junk Status from the pop-up menu.)
+
+
+
+
When you toggle junk status, a trash-can icon will appear or disappear
+ in the Junk status column to indicate the junk status of the selected
+ message.
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu, and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
+ You see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Click the Junk Settings category for your mail account.
+
Enable the feature and &brandShortName; will automatically classify
+ incoming messages. (See
+ Junk Mail Controls Options.
+ Details on the other settings there can be found in the
+ Junk Settings
+ preference panel description.)
+
+
If you have trained it on virus mail, consider disabling the white
+ listing (many mail viruses send bulk messages to people in the address book
+ of the infected computer).
+
Make sure to correct the Junk Mail Controls when it incorrectly labels
+ messages either as junk or not junk.
+
To analyze existing messages, select messages, open the Tools menu
+ and choose Run Junk Mail Controls.
+
+
+
Note: &brandShortName; will only run Junk Mail Controls
+ when the training database has information on non-Junk messages. If Junk Mail
+ Controls do not work, select some messages and explicitly mark them as Not
+ Junk.
Junk Mail Controls run after mail filters (unless you set the filter to run
+ after classification, where classification includes junk and phishing
+ scanning) and apply only to the Inbox folder and its sub-folders. Use this to
+ your advantage, for example, you can filter mail you are sure not to be Junk
+ to a special folder outside of Inbox so that the messages will not be
+ classified as Junk (especially useful if you subscribe to newsletters or if
+ you are on a moderated mailing list).
Phishing is a particularly common fraudulent business scheme in which
+ a party creates counterfeit websites designed to trick recipients into
+ divulging personal data such as credit card numbers, account usernames,
+ passwords and social security numbers. Hijacking brand names of banks,
+ e-retailers and credit card companies, phishers often convince
+ recipients to respond.
+
+
In many cases, you'll receive a link to a phishing page via an email
+ which claims to come from an official-looking address. You can also end up
+ at these pages by following links that you find on the Web or in IM
+ messages.
+
+
Tip: Since a forged URL
+ can look very similar to a genuine one, it's safer to use a bookmark
+ you've created or to type the URL into the location bar by hand instead
+ of following a link in an email message. Always consider the risk of a forged
+ URL if you're asked to log in or provide private information on a
+ website.
+
+
&brandShortName; Mail phishing detector is enabled by default. When it
+ encounters a mail which seems to be scam, it will show a warning bar in the
+ message window.
+
+
If you think that the email is a valid one, you can click on the Not
+ Scam button, and the warning bar will disappear.
+
+
When a user clicks on a link in an email that appears to be a phishing URL,
+ &brandShortName; will prompt the user with a dialog box before the website
+ is opened.
+
+
This prompt will appear if either of the following is true: the host name of
+ the actual URL is an IP address, or
+ the link text is a URL whose host name does not match the host name of the
+ actual URL.
+
+
Note: Phishing detection has a higher precedence than Junk
+ Mail detection.

+ before leaving a folder when you reenter a folder.
+
Preserve threading when sorting messages: Select this
+ option if you want &brandShortName; to preserve the threaded message
+ grouping when
+ sorting messages. If it is not selected, &brandShortName; automatically
+ displays the messages unthreaded when you sort them by clicking on the
+ column headers.
+
When Mail launches, show the Start Page in the message
+ area: Select this to enable the Start Page. The Start Page
+ appears in the message area when you first open &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups. This page is the default page, but you can enter a different
+ web page or URL of your choice. To disable the Start Page, deselect this
+ option. Click Restore Default to return to the original page provided by
+ &brandShortName;.
Message Display preferences allow you to choose how messages are
+ displayed (for example, font style and color) in all accounts. If you are not

+
+
+
+
When opening messages, display them in: Here you can
+ choose if you want to reuse a message window for the next mail or if you
+ want to open a new one for each.
+
Block images and other content from remote sources:
+ 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.)
+
Wait [__] seconds before marking a message as read:
+ 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.
+
+
Tip: If you do not want Mail & Newsgroups to mark
+ your messages as read automatically at all, you can select this option
+ and enter a very large number of seconds.
+
+
Plain Text Messages: 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's been
+ forwarded to you or by you).
+
+
Wrap text to fit window width: Select this so that
+ incoming messages are word-wrapped to fit the width of your Mail
+ window.
+
Display emoticons as graphics: Select this so that
+ when you receive messages that contain emoticons (also called smiley
+ faces) Mail & Newsgroups can convert them to graphics, for example:
+
Notification preferences allow you to select different methods for informing
+ you on arrival of a new message. So you don't have to always look in the

+
+
+
Sliding new mail alert
+
+
+
+
When the alert appears, clicking the link displayed in the alert will
+ take you to the first folder that has new mail.
+
+
+
The new message alert will continue to work even after you close the
+ Mail window (as long as another &brandShortName; application is running).
+
+
+
+
Show a tray icon: Select this if you want
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups to display an icon in your system
+ tray (which is usually found in the lower right corner of your screen) when
+ new messages arrive. This icon will stay in the system tray until you have
+ visited one of your folders with new mail or checked for new messages
+ manually.
+
New mail tray icon
+
When the icon appears, double-clicking it will open the &brandShortName;
+ Mail & Newsgroups main window.
+
+
+
Animate the Dock icon: Select this if you
+ want Mail & Newsgroups to bounce the &brandShortName; Dock icon when
+ new messages arrive.
+

+ Mail & Newsgroups to play a sound when new messages arrive. You can
+ choose between the default system sound and a custom sound in WAV format.
+ If you choose the latter, use the Browse button to select the sound file in
+ the file locator. Click on the Preview button to listen to the chosen sound
+ file.
+
+
Once &brandShortName; Mail has been started, the new messages sound will
+ continue to work even after you close the Mail window (as long as another
+ &brandShortName; application is running).
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:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Composition. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
+
Forward Messages: Choose how you want forwarded
+ message text to appear: as an attachment or inline (in the body of your
+ message).
+
Quote attachments viewed inline in replies: 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.
+
Automatically save the message every [__] minutes:
+ Choose this option if you want Mail & 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.
+
Confirm when using keyboard shortcut to send message:
+ Check this option if want to be asked if you're sure to be ready to
+ send the message when you'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.
+
Wrap plain text messages at [__] characters: Enter a
+ number to set the right margin for text in the message area.
+
Check spelling before sending: Select this option to
+ have Mail & Newsgroups always check the spelling of your message before
+ you send it.
+
Check spelling as you type: Select this option to have
+ Mail & Newsgroups always check the spelling of your message as you type
+ it.
+
Language: Use the drop-down list to select the language
+ you want to use to check the spelling in your messages or to download more
+ dictionaries.
+
Defaults for HTML Messages: Here you can define what the
+ defaults are for font, size, text and background color if you choose to
+ send mails in HTML format.
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:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Send Format. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
+
Ask me what to do: This option requires Mail &
+ Newsgroups to prompt you to choose a format before you send the
+ message.
+
Convert the message to plain text: This option may
+ cause your message to lose formatting such as bold text.
+
Send the message in HTML anyway: If you select this
+ option, keep in mind that some mail programs may have trouble displaying
+ the message.
+
Send the message in both plain text and HTML: This
+ option uses more disk space.
+
+
You can always override these preferences for an individual message by
+ using the Options menu in the Mail Compose window.
+
+
HTML and Plain Text Domains: 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.
+
+
+
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 netscape.net), 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 & Newsgroups will automatically send
+ messages in HTML format to these recipients.
+
+
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 & Newsgroups automatically
+ sends messages to that domain in plain-text format.
+
+
Note: 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.
+
+
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 & Newsgroups formats these messages.
Addressing preferences allow you to control the settings for
+ &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups address books (for example, email
+ address collection and address autocompletion). If you are not already
+ viewing the Addressing settings, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences. You see the
+ Preferences dialog box.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, select Addressing. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
+
Email Address Collection: Select this if you want Mail
+ & Newsgroups to automatically collect recipients' email addresses.
+ Use the drop-down list to choose between having the addresses added to your
+ Collected Addresses or your Personal Address Book.
+
Address Autocompletion:
+ Address autocompletion allows you to quickly address mail without having to
+ search for names or type names completely. Select from which location Mail
+ & Newsgroups will search for matching addresses: Local Address
+ Books (Personal Address Book, Collected Addresses, or any other local
+ address book) or Directory Server (an available LDAP directory
+ server) or both. If you want Mail & Newsgroups to highlight addresses
+ that do not autocomplete, then select that option.
+
+
Note: If while addressing mail, multiple email address
+ matches are found, Mail & Newsgroups displays a list of all possible
+ choices.
+
+
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't have
+ certificates on file.
Note: 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 & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box. To set
+ different addressing options for a specific account, open the Edit menu
+ and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.

When you compose a mail message, you can choose to attach your digital
+ signature to it. A digital
+ signature allows recipients of the message to verify that the message
+ really comes from you and hasn't been tampered with since you sent
+ it.
+
+
When you compose a mail message, you can also choose to encrypt it.
+ Encryption makes it very difficult
+ for anyone other than the intended recipient to read the message while it is
+ in transit over the Internet.
+
+
Signing and encryption are not available for newsgroup messages.
+
+
Before you can sign or encrypt a message, you must take these preliminary
+ steps:
The sections that follow provide a brief overview of how digital signatures
+ and encryption work. For more technical details on this subject, see the
+ online document
+ Introduction
+ to Public-Key Cryptography.
+
+
How Digital Signatures Work
+
+
A digital signature is a special code, unique to each message, created by
+ means of public-key
+ cryptography.
+
+
A digital signature is completely different from a handwritten signature,
+ although it can sometimes be used for similar legal purposes, such as signing
+ a contract.
+
+
To create a digital signature for an email message that you are sending, you
+ need two things:
+
+
+
A signing certificate
+ that identifies you for this purpose. Every time you sign a message, your
+ signing certificate is included with the message. The certificate includes
+ a public key. The presence of the
+ certificate in the message permits the recipient to verify your digital
+ signature.
+
+
Your certificate is a bit like your name and phone number in the
+ phonebook—it is public information that helps other people
+ communicate with you.
+
+
A private key, which is created
+ and stored on your computer when you first obtain a certificate.
+
+
Your private key for a signing certificate is protected by your
+ Master Password, and the
+ &brandShortName; program does not disclose it to anyone else. The Mail
+ & Newsgroup software uses your private key to create a unique,
+ verifiable digital signature for every message you choose to sign.
+
+
+
+
How Encryption Works
+
+
To encrypt an email message, you must have an
+ encryption certificate
+ for each of the message's recipients. The public key in each certificate
+ is used to encrypt the message for that recipient.
+
+
If you don't have a certificate for even a single recipient, the
+ message cannot be encrypted.
+
+
The recipient's software uses the recipient's private key, which
+ remains on that person's computer, to decrypt the message.
Every time you send a digitally signed message, your encryption certificate
+ is automatically included with the message. Therefore, one of the easiest
+ ways to obtain someone else's certificate is for that person to send you
+ a digitally signed message.
+
+
When you receive such a message, the person's certificate is
+ automatically stored by the Certificate
+ Manager, which is the part of the browser that keeps track of
+ certificates. This is useful because you need to have a certificate for each
+ recipient of any email message that you want to send in encrypted form.
+
+
Another way to obtain certificates is to look them up in a public directory,
+ such as the phonebook directories maintained by many companies.
When you are using any account that is configured to look up addresses in a
+ directory, the same directory will be searched for matching certificates when
+ you attempt to send an encrypted message to one or more recipients for whom
+ you don't have certificates on file.
+
+
The directory will also be searched for missing certificates when you open
+ the drop-down menu below the Security icon in the Compose window and choose
+ View Security Info.
Once you have obtained an email certificate (or certificates), you must
+ specify the certificates you want to use for signing and encrypting
+ messages.
To specify which signing and encryption certificates to use with a
+ particular account, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
+
Click Security under the name of the mail account whose security settings
+ you want to configure.
+
Under Digital Signing, click Select. (You may be asked to provide your
+ Master Password before you can
+ proceed further.)
+
+
A dialog box appears that allows you to select from among your available
+ signing certificates.
+
+
Choose the signing certificate you want to use, then click OK.
+
Follow the same steps under Encryption: click the Select button, select
+ the encryption certificate you want to use, and click OK.
+
+
In some cases you may be able to specify the same certificate under
+ Encryption that you specified under Digital Signing; check with your system
+ administrator to find out for sure.
+
+
+
Optionally, you can also indicate that you normally want to sign or encrypt
+ all messages sent from a particular account. These account-specific settings
+ are for convenience only; you can override the default settings for
+ individual messages.
+
+
To configure your default signing and encryption settings, start from the
+ Security panel for the account (described above) and select your settings as
+ follows:
+
+
+
Under Digital Signing:
+
+
Digitally sign messages: When this checkbox is
+ selected, all the messages you send from this account will be digitally
+ signed unless you indicate otherwise before you send the message. To
+ turn off this default setting, deselect the checkbox.
+
+
+
Under Encryption (choose one):
+
+
Never: When this option is selected, messages you
+ send from this account will be not be encrypted unless you indicate
+ otherwise before you send them.
+
Required: When this option is selected, all the
+ messages you send from this account will be encrypted—but only if
+ you have valid certificates for each of the message's recipients.
+ If you don't have all the necessary certificates, the message
+ can't be sent unless you turn off encryption for that message.
+
+
+
+
+
When you have finished configuring your mail security settings, click OK to
+ confirm them.
Before you can digitally sign or encrypt any message, you must obtain at
+ least one email certificate and configure your mail security settings
+ correctly. For background information on these tasks, see
+ About Digital Signatures
+ & Encryption.
To open a Compose window, start from the Mail window and click Compose. You
+ can immediately identify the default security settings from the presence or
+ absence of these icons near the lower-right corner of the window:
+
+
+
+
The message will be digitally
+ signed (assuming you have a valid email certificate that
+ identifies you).
+
+
+
The message will be encrypted
+ (assuming you have valid certificates for all recipients).
+
+
+
+
To turn these settings off or on, click the arrow just below the Security
+ icon in the Mail toolbar near the top of the window. Then select the item you
+ want from the drop-down list:
+
+
+
Do Not Encrypt This Message: Choose this to turn off
+ encryption for this message. The message will not be encrypted when it is
+ sent over the Internet.
+
Encrypt This Message: Choose this to turn on encryption
+ for this message. The message will be sent in encrypted form. However, it
+ can't be sent unless you have valid certificates for all
+ recipients.
+
Digitally Sign This Message: Choose this to turn digital
+ signing on or off for this message. A checkmark indicates the message will
+ be signed.
+
View Security Info: Choose this to view detailed
+ information about the security status of this message—to help you
+ determine, for example, whether you need to obtain a certificate for one of
+ the recipients.
+
+
+
To view detailed information about the message's security status, you
+ can also click the key or lock icon as described in
+ Message Security - Compose
+ Window.
When you view a signed or encrypted message in the Mail window, these icons
+ near the upper-right corner of the message header indicate the security
+ status of the message:
+
+
+
+
The message is digitally
+ signed and has been validated. If there is a problem with the signature,
+ the pen is broken.
+
+
+
The message is signed, but it has a
+ large attachment that has not yet been downloaded from the IMAP server.
+ As a result, the signature cannot be validated. Click the icon to
+ download the attachment and validate the signature.
+
+
+
The message is encrypted. If there
+ is a problem with the encryption, the key is broken.
To see more detailed information about the message's security, click
+ the key or lock icon, or follow the instructions in
+ Message Security - Received
+ Message.
This section describes the Message Security window that you can open for any
+ message you are composing. If you're not already viewing Message
+ Security, click the Security icon in the toolbar of the Compose window.
+
+
The Message Security window describes how your message will be sent:
+
+
+
Digitally Signed: This line describes whether your
+ message will be signed. There are three possibilities:
+
+
Yes: Digital signing has been enabled for this
+ message, you have a valid certificate identifying you, and the message
+ can be signed.
+
No: Digital signing has been disabled for this
+ message.
+
Not possible: Digital signing has been enabled for
+ this message. However, a valid
+ certificate identifying you
+ for this purpose is not available, or there is some other problem that
+ makes signing impossible.
+
+
+
Encrypted: This line describes whether your message will
+ be encrypted. There are three possibilities:
+
+
Yes: Encryption has been enabled for this message,
+ valid certificates for all listed recipients are available, and the
+ message can be encrypted.
+
No: Encryption has been disabled or is not possible
+ for this message.
+
Not possible: Encryption has been enabled for this
+ message. However, a valid certificate for at least one of the listed
+ recipients is not available, or no recipients are listed, or there is
+ some other problem that makes encryption impossible.
+
+
+
+
+
The Message Security window also lists the certificates available for the
+ recipients of your message:
+
+
+
View: To view the details for any certificate in the
+ list, select its name, then click View.
+
+
+
For more information about obtaining certificates and configuring message
+ security settings, see Signing
+ & Encrypting Messages.
+
+
To indicate your signing or encryption choices for an individual message,
+ click the arrow beside the Security button in the Compose window, then select
+ the options you want.
This section describes the Message Security window that you can open for any
+ message you have received. If you're not already viewing Message
+ Security for a received message, follow these steps:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, select the message for which you want to view
+ security information.
+
Open the View menu and choose Message Security Info.
+
+
+
The Message Security window displays the following information:
+
+
+
Digital Signature: The top section describes whether the
+ message is digitally signed and if so, whether the signature is valid.
+
+
If validation failed while OCSP was enabled, check the OCSP settings in
+ Privacy
+ & Security Preferences - Validation. If you are not familiar with
+ OCSP, confirm the settings with your system administrator. If your settings
+ are correct, there may be a problem with the OCSP service or the
+ certificate used to create the signature is no longer valid.
+
+
If the signature is invalid because of a problem with a certificate's
+ trust settings, you can use the Certificate
+ Manager to view or edit those settings.
+
+
View Signature Certificate: If the message is signed,
+ click this button to view the certificate that was used to sign it.
+
Encryption: The bottom section reports whether the
+ message is encrypted and any decrypting problems.
+
+
If the message's contents have been altered during transit, you
+ should ask the sender to resend it. The changes may have been caused by
+ network problems.
+
If a copy of your own certificate (used by the sender to encrypt the
+ message) is not available on your computer, the private key required to
+ decrypt the message cannot be retrieved. The only solution is to import
+ a backup copy of your certificate and its private key (see
+ Your Certificates for
+ details.) If you don't have access to a backup certificate, you
+ will not be able to decrypt the message.
For an IMAP account, you can retrieve new messages automatically and display
+ them in the Inbox by opening Mail & Newsgroups and selecting the Inbox
+ for the IMAP account.
+
+
For a POP account, you must select the Inbox and click Get Msgs to retrieve
+ your messages. By default, messages from your POP account are downloaded in
+ full and deleted from the POP server when you retrieve them. You can
+ change your POP
+ server settings to retrieve just the headers and/or store a copy of
+ messages on the server in addition to downloading them to your computer.
+
+

+ for the threads, open the View menu and select the desired option from the
+ Sort by submenu.
+
+
Tip: Select Preserve threading when sorting messages
+ in the Mail &
+ Newsgroups Preferences if you want &brandShortName; to preserve the
+ threaded message grouping when sorting messages with column header clicks. The
+ thread button just toggles between threaded and unthreaded message grouping in
+ this mode. If Preserve threading when sorting messages is not selected,
+ &brandShortName; automatically displays the messages unthreaded when you sort
+ them by clicking on a column header.
+
+
Tip: To help you identify unread messages in a collapsed
+ thread where you've read the parent message, &brandShortName; Mail &
+ Newsgroups underlines the parent message.
To save a mail message as a plain-text, HTML, or Outlook Express file:
+
+

+ editor for each of your accounts.) See
+ Changing the
+ Settings for an Account for more information.
+
+
Note: It is generally not possible to compose messages for
+ them to be published in blogs & news feeds accounts. If you want to
+ publish posts in a blog (and you have the appropiate rights to do it), you
+ will need to use the mechanisms provided by the specific blog system. In some
+ cases, this can even include sending a mail message to a specific address.
+
+
Composing messages in HTML format allows you to use different fonts, text
+ styles (such as bold or italic) and text colors, tables, numbered or bulleted
+ lists, and pictures in your messages. However, some recipients may only be
+ able to read messages composed in plain text format. If you want to use the
+ plain-text editor occasionally, you can hold down the Shift key while
+ clicking the Compose or the Reply button to use the plain-text editor on an
+ as-needed basis.
Use the Compose window to address, compose, and send mail and newsgroup
+ messages. First specify whether you want to compose messages in plain text or
+ HTML by default in the Composition &
+ Addressing Preferences panel (open the Edit menu and choose Mail &
+ Newsgroups Account Settings).
+
+
To view the Compose window, click the Compose button on the Mail
+ toolbar.
+
+
The Compose window contains the following:
+
+
+
Mail Toolbar
+
+
You can click the following buttons:
+
+
Send: To send a completed message.
+
Address: To search for names in your address
+ books.
+
Attach: To attach a file to a message. See
+ Using Attachments for more
+ information.
+
Spell: To check the spelling of your message
+ text.
+
Security: To display information about whether
+ your message will be sent encrypted or digitally signed (or
+ both).
+
Save: To save the message as a draft.
+
+
+
Addressing area: Where you enter the email addresses of recipients.
+
Attachments area: When you attach files to a message (by clicking in this
+ area or by clicking the Attach button), the filenames will be listed in the
+ Attachments area to the right of the Addressing area.
+
Message body area: Where you type the contents of your message.
+
+
+
If you've chosen to compose messages using the HTML editor, you see an
+ additional toolbar with text formatting buttons similar to those in
+ &brandShortName; Composer.
If you have address
+ autocompletion enabled (it's enabled by default), type the first
+ few letters of the recipient's name and wait for Mail &
+ Newsgroups to complete the address. (Or you can type part of the name and
+ immediately press ReturnEnter to have Mail & Newsgroups try to complete
+ the address.)
+
+
If multiple addresses are displayed, select an address and press
+ ReturnEnter.
+
+
Note: Use a comma to separate multiple addresses on the
+ same line. Do not use a comma to separate first or last names. For
+ example, multiple entries might be:
If necessary, click To to choose a different recipient type:
+
+
To: For primary recipients of your message.
+
Cc: For secondary recipients (carbon copy).
+
Bcc: For secondary recipients not identified to the
+ other recipients, including those in the cc list (blind carbon
+ copy).
+
Reply-To: For recipients to reply to a different
+ email address other than the one the message is sent from.
+
Newsgroup: For posting to a newsgroup.
+
Followup-To: For redirecting a newsgroup posting, so
+ that subsequent replies go directly to the redirected newsgroup instead
+ of the original newsgroup.
+
+
+
+
+
Tip: You can quickly address a message by clicking the
+ email address contained in a message you're reading, and then selecting
+ Compose Mail To from the pop-up menu.
+
+
Changing the
+ Account From Which a Message is Sent
+
+
If you have multiple mail accounts, the account listed in the From field is
+ based on the account (or server) you selected when you choose to create a new
+ message. However, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups also allows you to
+ change the account a message is sent from while you're composing a
+ message. Click the From field to view a list of your accounts and then select
+ the account you want. A copy of the message is saved in the Sent folder of
+ the account where you sent the message from.
+
+
About Address Autocompletion
+
+
Address autocompletion allows you to address mail easily from the Compose
+ window without having to search for names or type complete names. Mail &
+ Newsgroups automatically checks your address books and an
+ LDAP directory server (if available) and
+ completes the name if it finds a unique match. It also prevents mistakes by
+ showing all possible choices with additional information if it finds multiple
+ matches. Address autocompletion is enabled by default.
+
+
If you don't want to use an address that Mail & Newsgroups
+ provides, press Backspace or Delete to remove characters and then enter an
+ alternate address.
+
+
To disable address autocompletion:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click Addressing. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand
+ the list).
+
In the Address Autocompletion section, deselect Local Address
+ Books and Directory Server.
While you're composing a message, you can select these additional
+ message sending options from the Options menu:
+
+
+
Select Addresses: The Select Addresses option lets you
+ choose the recipient's email address from your Address Books or a
+ remote directory. To look up an address in an address book or directory,
+ enter the first few letters of the recipient's first or last name to
+ start the search. Select an address and then click To:, Cc:, or Bcc: to
+ address your message.
+
Check Spelling: Checks the spelling of the message text
+ before you send it. You can also click Spell.
+
Spellcheck As You Type: Choose this option to have the
+ spelling of the message text checked as you type.
+
Quote Message: Choose this option to have the selection
+ of the message text shown as quoted text.
+
Return Receipt: Choose this option to request a
+ confirmation message when the recipient displays (opens) the message. Keep
+ in mind that the recipient may choose not to send you a return receipt.
+ This option lets you enable or disable return receipt requests on a
+ per-message basis. To automatically request return receipts for all
+ messages you send, use the return receipts preferences. See
+ Mail &
+ Newsgroups Preferences - Return Receipts for more information.
+
Format: Send the message as plain text, or HTML
+ (formatted), or both. If you choose Auto-Detect, Mail &
+ Newsgroups prompts you for the format to use if it's unknown whether
+ the recipient's mail program can display an HTML message. The format
+ you choose here overrides the send format you specified using the
+ Preferences command on the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu.
+
Priority: Choose a priority to indicate whether the
+ message has lowest, low, normal, high, or highest priority.
+
Character Encoding: Choose a character encoding used for
+ this message.
+
Send a Copy To: Choose this if you want to file an
+ additional copy of the sent message in a different folder than your default
+ Sent folder. Then select the folder you want.
+
Security: Choose this to change the default security
+ options for this message.
+
+
+
An additional message formatting option is available from the Edit menu:
+
+
+
Rewrap: If you are composing a message using the
+ plain-text editor, you can use the Rewrap command to rewrap long lines of
+ quoted text to fit the Compose window. This command rewraps selected quoted
+ text to the number of characters specified by the
+ Composition
+ preferences. This command is primarily useful when you are replying to a
+ message where the original message is quoted in your reply, and the original
+ message contains long lines.
+
+
You use the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings command on the Edit
+ menu to specify that you want to use the plain-text editor for composing
+ messages. Select the Composition & Addressing panel of the account
+ and uncheck Compose messages in HTML format to use the plain-text
+ editor for all messages. If you only want to use the plain-text editor
+ occasionally, you can hold down the Shift key while clicking the Compose
+ or the Reply button to use the plain-text editor on an as-needed
+ basis.
Click Reply All to respond to all addressees in the message.
+
+
+
To include the original message each time you reply to any message, and to
+ specify how to place the original message in the reply:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
+ You see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
If you have multiple accounts, select an account and click the
+ Composition &
+ Addressing category for that account.
+
Select Automatically quote the original message when
+ replying.
+
Specify where in the message to place your reply. Start my reply below
+ the quote is the default.
+
If you have decided to attach a
+ signature to every outgoing message and selected to start your reply
+ above the quote here, you can additionally configure where your signature
+ is placed:
+
+
Select below the quote (recommended) to place your signature
+ at the very end of the message below the quoted text.
+
Select below my reply (above the quote) to place your
+ signature between your reply and the quoted text.
+
+
+
Note: If you have created a signature, you can
+ optionally omit
+ it when replying to a message.
When you forward a message, you can specify how its contents are included
+ in the new message: inline (in the body of the message), or as an
+ attachment.
+
+
To forward a message:
+
+
+
Select the message and click Forward.
+
Type the name or email address of the recipient.
+
Click Send.
+
+
+
To set the default for forwarding messages:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Composition. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list.)
+
For forwarding messages, choose Inline (in the message body) or As
+ Attachment.
+
+
Note: If you have created a signature and forward
+ inline, its placement depends on the respective reply setting. You can
+ optionally omit the
+ signature when forwarding a message.
+
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Tip: To override the default for forwarding a message,
+ select the message, open the Message menu, and choose Forward As, then
+ choose Inline or Attachment.
You can use return receipts to notify you when a recipient has displayed
+ (opened) your message. The recipient must be using a mail program that
+ supports the Message Disposition Notification (MDN) standard. Keep in mind
+ that the recipient may choose not to send you a return receipt, even if
+ you've requested one. Messages you send to a newsgroup address will not
+ include a return receipt request, since news servers don't support this
+ feature.
+
+
To request return receipts for all messages you send, you can use the global
+ Return
+ Receipt preferences to specify how to manage requests you receive for
+ return receipts. You can override these global preferences for individual
+ accounts.
+
+
To request a return receipt on a per-message basis:
+
+
+
From a Mail Compose window, open the Options menu, and choose Return
+ Receipt.
+
+
+
To automatically request return receipts when sending messages from each of
+ your mail accounts:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Return
+ Receipts. (If no subcategories are visible, double-click Mail &
+ Newsgroups to expand the list.)
+
Select When sending messages, always request a return receipt.
To save a mail message as a draft so you can complete it later:
+
+
+
In the Compose window, click Save, or open the File menu and choose Save
+ as Draft. By default, the message is saved in the Drafts folder for the
+ current account.
+
+
Note: Your mail message will stay open after you save
+ it as a draft.
+
+
+
+
To edit or send a message draft, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Click the Drafts folder for the account where you created the message
+ draft.
+
Click the message that you want to edit.
+
In the top-right corner of the message, click the Edit Draft
+ button.
+
Edit the message as necessary.
+
Click Send to send the message or click Save to save the message so you
+ can complete it later.
+
+
Note: Sending the message removes it from the Drafts
+ folder.
+
+
+
+
Tip: You can also double-click the message to open it for
+ editing. This is especially useful if the message pane is closed.
+
+
To delete one or more unwanted message drafts, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the Drafts folder for the account where you created the message
+ drafts.
+
Select the message drafts that you want to delete.
Templates are useful for setting the default format for messages that you
+ send regularly, such as weekly status reports. You can save a message as a
+ template from any window in which it is displayed, including from within a
+ Mail compose window.
+
+
To save a message to use as a template:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, click Compose to create a new message and then set
+ the default font, text size, text color, background color, and any other
+ default formatting you want.
+
+
Alternatively, open an existing message that already has the formatting
+ you want.
+
+
While displaying the message, open the File menu, choose Save As, then
+ choose Template. The message is stored as a template in the Templates
+ folder for the current mail account.
+
+
+
To compose a message using a template:
+
+
+
In the Mail window, select the Templates folder for the account where you
+ created the message template.
+
Double-click the message template to open it.
+
Edit the message, then save it (to put it in the Drafts folder) or send
+ it.
+
+
Note: Sending the message does not remove the template
+ from the Templates folder. The template is preserved for future use.
+
+
+
+
To delete one or more unwanted message templates, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Click the Templates folder for the account where you created the message
+ templates.
+
Select the message templates that you want to delete.
HTML messages can include formatted text, links, images, and
+ tables—just like a web page. However, some recipients may not be able
+ to receive HTML messages. &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups allows you
+ to compose mail and newsgroup messages using either the HTML (rich-text)
+ formatting editor or the plain-text editor for each mail account you have.
+ In addition, you can choose whether your addressees should receive HTML or
+ plain-text messages by default, and how Mail & Newsgroups should handle
+ messages when it's not known if an addressee can receive HTML-formatted
+ mail.
+
+
To specify whether to use the HTML editor as the default for composing
+ messages, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Select the mail or newsgroup account you want to use.
+
Go to the Composition & Addressing panel and select Compose
+ messages in HTML format. You see the Formatting toolbar in the Compose
+ window. Leave this box unchecked to use the plain-text editor for this
+ account.
If you understand how to work with HTML source code, you can edit or insert
+ additional HTML tags, style attributes, and JavaScript in your mail message.
+ If you are not sure how to work with HTML source code, it's best not to
+ change it. To work with HTML code, use one of these methods:
+
+
+
Place the insertion point where you want to insert the HTML code, then
+ open the Insert menu and choose HTML. In the Insert HTML dialog box, enter
+ HTML tags and text, and then click Insert to insert your changes.
+
Select the HTML source code that you want to edit, then open the Insert
+ menu and choose HTML. In the Insert HTML dialog box, edit HTML tags and
+ text, and then click Insert to insert your changes.
+
Select an element such as a table, named anchor, image, link, or
+ horizontal line. Double-click the element to open the associated properties
+ dialog box for that item. Click Advanced Edit to open the Advanced Property
+ Editor. You can use the Advanced Property Editor to add HTML attributes and
+ JavaScript to objects.
By default, Mail & Newsgroups prompts you before sending HTML messages
+ when it's not known whether the recipient's mail program can
+ display HTML-formatted messages.
+
+
To choose sending-format options for mail messages, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Mail & Newsgroups category, click
+ Send Format. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Mail & Newsgroups to expand the
+ list).
+
+
Note: This preference applies only to mail messages,
+ not to newsgroup messages.
+
+
Select the option you want and then click OK.
+
+
+
If while composing a message you realize that one or more recipients may not
+ be able to receive HTML-formatted mail, you can easily convert the message to
+ a different format when you click Send:
+
+
+
In the Compose window, open the Options menu and choose Format.
+
Select the format you want to use for sending the message from the
+ submenu:
+
+
Auto Detect: Mail & Newsgroups chooses the
+ appropriate format for the message text. If it can't determine the
+ format, it asks you to choose a format.
+
Plain Text Only: The message may not display
+ formatting such as bold text, but all mail programs will be able to
+ display the message.
+
Rich Text (HTML) Only: Some mail programs may have
+ trouble displaying an HTML-formatted message. Choose this option only
+ if you are sure the recipient's mail program can display
+ HTML-formatted mail.
+
Plain and Rich (HTML) Text: This uses more disk
+ space, but may be the best choice if you are not sure whether the
+ recipient's mail program can display HTML-formatted mail.
+
+
+
When you've finished composing the message, click Send.
You can save time by indicating whether individuals in your address books
+ prefer to receive either HTML messages or plain text messages.
+
+
+
Open the Window menu and choose Address Book.
+
Select the address book on the left and then select the individual's
+ card on the right.
+
Click Properties to display the Card for dialog box.
+
In the Contact tab, use the Prefers to receive messages formatted
+ as drop-down list to select HTML if you know this recipient can read
+ HTML-formatted messages (such as messages that include links, images, or
+ tables).
+
+
If this recipient can only read messages sent as plain text (no
+ formatting), then choose Plain Text. If you don't know or are not
+ sure, choose Unknown.
+
+
If you choose Unknown, &brandShortName; Mail & Newsgroups determines
+ the sending format based on the Send Format settings for Mail &
+ Newsgroups in the Preferences dialog box. If Mail & Newsgroups still
+ can't determine the correct format, it will prompt you to choose a
+ sending format when you send the message.
The HTML Mail Question dialog box appears when you try to send a message to
+ someone whose mail program may not be able to display HTML messages or when
+ Mail & Newsgroups cannot determine whether your recipient can display
+ HTML messages. If you are in doubt, send the message in both HTML and
+ plain-text formats.
If you receive a mail attachment that consists of a file type that
+ &brandShortName; can display (such as graphic files and HTML files), you see
+ the attachment displayed inline (in the body of the message). For other file
+ types, Mail & Newsgroups lets you open the attachment using another
+ application, or you can save the attachment on your hard disk.
+
+
To open the attachment, make sure you have a program on your computer that
+ can open files of the same type as the attachment's file format. For
+ example, if you want to open a .DOC file, make sure you have a program on
+ your computer that can open .DOC files.
+
+
To open an attachment:
+
+
+
Double-click the attachment you want (if there is more than one).
+
In the Downloading dialog box, choose what you want &brandShortName; to
+ do with the attachment:
+
+
If &brandShortName; finds an application on your hard disk that can
+ open the attachment, you can open the attachment using that
+ application. Click Choose to use a different application to open
+ the attachment.
+
If &brandShortName; can't find an application on your hard disk
+ that can open the attachment, you can save the attachment. You
+ won't be able to open the attachment, but at least you can save
+ it on your hard disk until you can install an application that can open
+ it.
+
Click Advanced to add a new file type to the list of helper
+ applications. &brandShortName; uses helper applications to determine
+ how different file types are opened by other applications from within
+ &brandShortName;. For more information, see
+ Plugins and
+ Downloads.
+
+
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Note: If you are viewing your mail using an IMAP mail
+ server, all attachments remain on the server.
In the right side of the message envelope, under Attachments,
+ select the attachment that you want to save.
+
Right-click or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-clickthe attachment and choose Save As from the
+ pop-up menu.
+
Choose a filename and location for the attachment on your hard disk and
+ then click OK. Mail & Newsgroups downloads the attachment and saves it
+ to the specified location.
+
+
+
Tip: To save all attachments, right-click
+ or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-clickthe first one in the attachment list, and choose
+ Save All. You can then specify the location where you want all the
+ attachments to be saved.
How you delete messages depends on your mail server type: POP or IMAP.
+ Deleted POP messages are automatically moved to the Trash folder. IMAP users
+ can set different options for deleting messages.
+
+
To delete messages from your Inbox or other folders, begin from the Mail
+ window:
+
+
+
In the message list, select the messages and click Delete. By default,
+ Mail & Newsgroups moves the selected messages to the Trash folder.
+
To delete messages permanently, open the File menu and choose Empty
+ Trash.
+
+
+
To delete messages without opening them, begin from the Mail window:
+
+
+
Open the View menu and choose Layout, and then uncheck Message Pane.
+
+
Alternatively, click the Message Pane handle (the ridged area centered
+ at the bottom of the message list) to close the message pane.
+
+
In the message list, select the messages and click Delete.
+
+
+
To set deletion preferences for IMAP messages:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings. You
+ see the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings dialog box.
+
Locate the IMAP account you want, and then click the Server Settings
+ category under the account name.
+
Select the options
+ you want for deleting messages and click OK.
If you use a POP server to deliver your mail, or if you set up IMAP to use
+ the Trash folder, follow these steps to delete messages from your Inbox or
+ other folders:
+
+
+
In the message list, select the messages you want to delete.
+
Click Delete. Mail & Newsgroups moves the messages to the Trash
+ folder.
+
+
+
To recover messages from the Trash:
+
+
+
Click the Trash folder.
+
Select the messages you want to recover and drag them to another
+ folder.

+
Browsing the Web
+
+
Welcome to &brandShortName;! One of the most popular ways people use
+ &brandShortName; is to browse the Web. The &brandShortName; browser
+ component that lets you visit web pages, offers many ways to visit web pages
+ and search the Web.
+
+
This section introduces you to the browser, and how you can use it to
+ navigate, search, and save web pages.
After the first launch, you will normally see your home page when you launch
+ &brandShortName;. Unless you choose a home page yourself, your home page is
+ chosen by your network or Internet service provider, or you see
+ &brandShortName;'s home page.
To streamline the &brandShortName;
+ interface, you can use Full Screen mode to display web pages using almost
+ all of your screen. In the browser, open the View menu and choose Full
+ Screen. You can also press F11.
+
To go to your home page quickly, press CmdAlt+Home.
You move to a new page by typing its URL—its location (address) on the
+ Web. URLs normally begin with http://, followed by one or more
+ names that identify the address. For instance,
+ http://www.mozilla.org.
+
+
+
Click the Location Bar to select the URL that is already there.
+
Type the URL of the page you want to visit. The URL you type replaces any
+ text already in the Location Bar.
+
Press ReturnEnter.
+
+
+
Using the lock icon near the lower-right corner of the window, you can check
+ a web page's security status at any time. For details, see
+ Checking
+ Security for a Web Page.
+
+
Tip: To quickly select the URL in the Location Bar, press
+ CmdCtrl+L.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Location Bar
+
+
+
+
Don't know a URL? You can type part of a URL, such as
+ cnn (for www.cnn.com); or you can type a general word, such as
+ gifts or flowers. The browser guesses what page you
+ want to view, or displays a page with a choice of links related to the word
+ you typed.
+
+
If you are new to the Internet, see the
+ Internet Guide.
Most web pages contain links you can click to move to other pages.
+
+
+
Move the pointer until it changes to a pointing finger. This happens
+ whenever the pointer is over a link. Most links are underlined text, but
+ buttons and images can also be links.
+
Click the link once. While the network locates the page that the link
+ points to, status messages appear at the bottom of the window.
To go back or forward one page, click the Back or Forward arrow.
+
To go back or forward more than one page, click the small triangles on
+ the Back and Forward buttons. You'll see a list of pages you've
+ visited; to return to a page, choose it from the list.

+
+
To choose from pages you've visited during the current session, open
+ the Go menu and use the list in the bottom section of the menu.
+
+
To choose from pages you've visited during the past several
+ sessions, open the Go menu and choose History. You see the history list.
+ The history list displays a list of folders. Double clicking the folders
+ displays subfolders or bookmarks to web pages. You can double-click the URL
+ next to the Bookmark icon to view that page.
+
+
+
Tip: The Sidebar History tab also allows you to choose from
+ pages you've visited during the past several sessions. For

About History Lists
+
+
The history list contains links to recently visited pages. The Location Bar
+ list contains links to pages you've typed into the Location Bar and then
+ visited.
+
+
To access the history list from the browser, open the Go menu and choose
+ History. To access the Location Bar list, click the arrow at the right end of
+ the Location Bar.
+
+
Tip: To quickly open the history list, press
+ Cmd+ShiftCtrl+H.
+
+
If you don't want the Location Bar or history list to display the pages
+ you've been visiting, you can clear the history list and Location Bar
+ history entirely or selectively.
+
+
To delete all pages from the Location Bar or history list, begin from the
+ browser window:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Browser category, click History. (If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Browser to expand the list.)
+
Click Clear History and Clear Location Bar to remove all previously
+ visited web pages from the lists.
+
+
+
Tip: In Remember visited pages for the last [__]
+ days, you can set the number of days pages will remain in the history
+ list.
+
+
To selectively delete pages from the history list, do any of the
+ following:
+
+
+
To delete all pages from a domain, select a page within that domain
+ (folder) in the History list, open the Edit menu, and select Delete
+ entire domain *.[domain name]. For example, use this command
+ if you want to delete all pages that end in mozilla.org.
+
To delete pages from a subdomain, select a page within that subdomain in
+ the History list, open the Edit menu, and select Delete all from
+ [subdomain]. For example, use this command if you want to
+ delete all pages from bugzilla.mozilla.org but not
+ mozilla.org.
+
To delete a single page or folder, select it in the history list and
+ press Delete.
+
+
+
Tip: To sort the history list, click one of the categories
+ (Title, Location, or Last Visited). Click the title again to reverse the

If a page is taking too long to appear, or you change your mind and
+ don't want to view it, click the Stop button.
+
+
To refresh the current page, or get the most up-to-date version, click the
+ Reload button, or press

The addresses, or URLs, of web pages can be quite long and difficult to
+ remember. Fortunately, it's not necessary to memorize URLs in order to
+ browse the Web. Your browser has a list of bookmarks, which are pointers to
+ interesting web pages.
+
+
To go to a bookmarked page, begin from the Browser window:
+
+
+
Open the Bookmarks menu. The menu contains bookmarks represented by a
+ bookmark icon, and folders that contain more bookmarks.
+
To visit a bookmarked page, choose a bookmark from the menu, or open a
+ folder and choose a bookmark.
+
+
+
Tip: To retrace your steps, click the Back arrow.
+
+
You can save your own bookmarks to point to pages you frequently visit, or
+ to other interesting places on the Web. See
+ Creating New
+ Bookmarks for more information.
When you visit more then one web page at a time, you can use Tabbed Browsing
+ to navigate the Web faster and easier.
+
+
Tabbed Browsing lets you open tabs, each displaying a web page, within a
+ single browser window. You don't have to have several windows open to
+ visit several different web pages. This frees up space on your desktop. You
+ can open, close, and reload web pages conveniently in one place without
+ having to switch to another window.
+
+
You can manage your navigation tabs easily and control when tabs are opened
+ automatically. For more information about setting Tabbed Browsing
+ preferences, see
+ Browser Preferences
+ - Tabbed Browsing.
+
+
To learn more about using Tabbed Browsing, see
+ Tabbed Browsing.
In addition to navigating the Web with the browser, you can let the Web come
+ to you by using Sidebar.
+
+
Sidebar is a customizable frame in your browser where you can keep items
+ that you need to use all the time—the latest news and weather, your
+ address book, stock quotes, a calendar—and many other available
+ options. Sidebar presents these items to you in tabs that it continually
+ updates.
+
+
&brandShortName; comes with some Sidebar tabs already set up, but you can
+ customize Sidebar by adding, removing, and rearranging tabs. For details,
+ see Sidebar.
+
+
To view an item in Sidebar, click its tab.
+
+
+
+
+
Sidebar Handle
+
If it is not already open, open Sidebar
+ by clicking its handle. If the handle is missing, open the View menu in
+ the browser, choose Show/Hide, and then Sidebar from the submenu.
+
+
+
+
Tip: To quickly open or close the Sidebar,
+ press F9.
There are four ways to search quickly: from the Location Bar, from Sidebar,
+ from the Net Search page, and by selecting words in a web page.
+
+
Searching from the Location Bar
+
+
Searching for web pages on a particular topic is as easy as typing a
+ question, or just a word or two, into the browser's Location Bar, as
+ shown below.
+
+
+
+
For example, if you want to find information about baby dolls:
+
+
+
Double-click in the Location Bar to select the current text.
+
Type the word baby doll. Your typing replaces the current
+ text.
+
Perform one of these steps:
+
+
Click the Search button.
+
Click Search Google for baby doll at the bottom of the
+ drop-down list in the Location Bar. (Your default search engine may be
+ different.)
+
+
The default search engine you choose in the
+ Internet
+ Search Preferences is used. Search results for baby doll
+ appear in both the browser window and in Sidebar. Click the links to
+ visit web pages about baby dolls.
+
+
+
+
+
+
After you perform a search, the results are saved in Sidebar's Search
+ tab until you do a new search. You don't have to click the Back button
+ to retrieve the search results.
+
+
Note: In the Unknown Locations section of the
+ Location Bar
+ Preferences, you can set up the Location Bar so a search is automatically
+ performed if the text you have typed is not a web location. Typing a word in
+ the Location Bar and pressing Enter
+ Return will then perform a search. For a more technical description of
+ this feature, see the online document
+
+ Internet Keywords.
+
+
Searching from Sidebar
+
+
The Sidebar Search tab lets you quickly search and bookmark your search
+ results. For example, if you want to find information about toy cars:
+
+
+
If it is not already open, open Sidebar by clicking its handle. If the
+ handle is missing, press F9 or open
+ the View menu in the browser, choose Show/Hide, and then Sidebar from the
+ submenu.
+
Click the Search tab in Sidebar.
+
Open the using drop-down list, and choose a search
+ engine.
+
Type toy car in the search field.
+
Click Search. Search results for 'toy car' appear in both the
+ browser window and in Sidebar. Click the links to visit web pages about toy
+ cars.
+
+
+
Note: If the Sidebar Search tab contains a list of search
+ engines from which to choose, then it is set to search in
+ Advanced mode and you will have
+ to choose one or more search engines before clicking Search. You can keep it
+ that way or change to a basic setting in Preferences.
+
+
Tip: To display the next or previous page of search results
+ quickly, click the Next and Previous buttons at the bottom of the Sidebar
+ Search tab.
+
+
See Sidebar for more information
+ on how to use Sidebar.
+
+
Searching from the Net
+ Search page
+
+
The Net Search page lets you type in a Search term or phrase, or explore
+ several categories (such as Arts & Entertainment, Business, and many
+ more) that may interest you. To visit the Net Search page, perform one of
+ these steps:
+
+
+
Click on the Search button on the Navigation Toolbar.
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Search the Web.
+
+
+

+
Right-click or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-click and choose Search Web for
+ [your selected words] for the menu.
+
+
+
&brandShortName; opens a new window or tab (depending on your preferences)
+ and uses your default search engine to search for your selected words. To
+ learn how to change the search engine used to search for your selected words
+ and the way your search results are displayed, see
+ Browser Preferences
+ - Internet Search.

+
Click Search.
+
+
+
+
+
Customizing Search Categories
+
+
You can specify which search engines should be used for different categories
+ of searches. For example, you can select one set of search engines to search
+ for travel, and select another set of search engines to search for

+ multiple search engines.
To find text within the page you are currently viewing in the browser:
+
+
+
Open the Edit menu and choose Find in This Page. If the page
+ you are viewing contains frames, you may need to click within a frame
+ before you begin your search. You see the Find in this Page
+ dialog box.
+
Type the text you want to find.
+
Choose from the following search options:
+
+
Match exact case: Choose this to search for a
+ word or phrase that matches the word you typed exactly (including
+ uppercase and lowercase letters).
+
Wrap around: Choose this to allow the browser to
+ search from the where the cursor is to the bottom of the page and then
+ continue searching from the top of the page. Note: Normally, the page
+ is searched from the place where you last clicked your mouse to the
+ bottom of the page.
+
Search backwards: Choose this to search from the
+ insertion point backwards to the top of the page.
Other than searching text through the Find dialog, you can also search by
+ typing directly into a Web page.
+
+
+
To search for a link, type several characters into the active browser
+ window to navigate to any link with that text in it.
+
+
If you repeat the same character, it will start to cycle through all
+ the links that begin with that character. However, if it can find a
+ match with the exact string you've typed, such as
+ oo in woods, it will go there
+ first.
+
+
+
To search for all text (normal text and linked text), type /
+ before your search string. For example, type /hello to
+ search any text containing the string hello.
+
The status bar (at the bottom of your browser window) displays your
+ search string and whether or not the search is successful.
+
Use the backspace key to undo the last character typed.
+
To cancel a find, change focus or scroll, press Escape, or wait for the
+ timeout.
+
Press
+ CmdCtrl+G or
+ F3 to find the same search text again. Press
+ CmdCtrl+Shift+G or
+ Shift+F3 to find previous occurence of the search
+ text.
+
+
+
Type Ahead Find works with any window, such as this help file (try it!).
+
+
This feature also works with international characters such as Chinese and
+ Japanese.
To save an entire page, begin from the browser window:
+
+
+
Open the File menu and choose Save Page As. You see the Save As dialog
+ box.
+
Choose a folder in which to save this file.
+
Choose a format for the page you want to save:
+
+
Web Page, Complete: Save the whole web page, along
+ with images and other supporting files. This option allows you to view
+ it as originally displayed with images. &brandShortName; creates a new
+ directory (where the page is saved) to save images and other files
+ necessary to show the whole web page.
+
Web Page, HTML Only: Save the original page as-is
+ without images.
+
Text file: Save the original page as a text file.
+ This option will not preserve the original HTML link structure, but
+ will allow you to see a text version of the web page in any text
+ editor.
+
+
+
Type a file name for the page and click Save.
+
+
+
When you view a page containing frames and a frame is currently selected,
+ the Save Frame As option is offered in the drop-down list in addition to Save
+ Page As. This lets you save only the page within the selected frame.
+
+
Saving a file onto your hard drive lets you view the page (or its HTML code)
+ when you're not connected to the Internet.
+
+
To save an image from a page:
+
+
+
Position the mouse pointer over the image.
+
Right-click or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-click the image to display a pop-up menu.
+
Choose Save Image As. You see the Save File dialog box.
+
Choose a folder in which to save this image.
+
Type a file name for the image and click Save.
+
+
+
To save a page without displaying it (which is useful for retrieving a
+ non-formatted page, like a data file, that's not intended for
+ viewing):
+
+
+
Position the mouse pointer over the page's link.
+
Right-click or, if you have a one-button mouse,
+ Ctrl-click the hyperlink on the page to display a pop-up
+ menu.
+
Choose Save Link Target As. You see the Save File dialog box.
+
Choose a folder in which to save this file.
+
Type a file name for the page and click Save.
+
+
+
Important: Some links automatically download and save files
+ to your hard drive after you click them. The URLs for these links often begin
+ with ftp or end with a file-type extension such as au
+ or mpeg. These links might transmit software, sound, or movie
+ files, and can launch helper applications that support the files.
+
+
Tip: To set an image as
+ your desktop wallpaper on Windows, right-click on an image and choose Set As
+ Wallpaper from the pop-up menu.

If you browse, compose, or send and receive email in more than one language,
+ you need to select the appropriate character encodings and fonts.
+
+
A character encoding method is the way a document or message has been
+ converted to data to be used by your computer. All web documents and mail and
+ news messages use a character encoding method (also known as a character set,
+ character coding, or charset).
+
+
The character encoding method for a document may depend on its language.
+ Some languages e.g. most West European languages, share the same encoding
+ method. Others such as Chinese, Japanese, and Russian use different methods.
+ In contrast, Unicode provides language-independent encoding methods. UTF-8,
+ for examples, can be used for any language document.
+
+
Your version of &brandShortName; is set to a default character encoding
+ appropriate for your region. However, if you use more than one language, you
+ may need to select appropriate character encoding methods and designate the
+ fonts you wish to use for your language/script.
+
+
To select character encodings, begin from the browser window:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Character Encoding, and then choose More.
+
Choose a region from the top section of the submenu.
+
Choose a character encoding within the region submenu. Repeat steps
+ 1-3 for each character encoding method you want.
+
+
+
The character encoding methods you select are added to the Character
+ Encoding menu. If you have more than one encoding method selected, the active
+ one has a bullet (dot) next to it.
+
+
&brandShortName; can detect which character encoding a document uses, and
+ can display it correctly on your screen. To take advantage of this
+ capability, begin from the browser window:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Character Encoding, and then choose
+ Auto-Detect.
+
Choose one of the Auto-Detect options, or choose Off from the
+ submenu.
+
+
+
To make changes to your list of active character encodings:
+
+
+
Open the View menu, choose Character Encoding, and then choose Customize.
+ You can see the Customize Encoding dialog box.
+
Choose from the following procedures:
+
+
To add to the list of active character encodings, choose a character
+ encoding from the list on the left and click Add.
+
To remove a character encoding from the active list, choose a
+ character encoding from the list on the right and click Remove.
+
To change the order in which active encodings appear in the Character
+ Encoding menu, highlight character encodings in the list on the right,
+ and use the arrow buttons to move the character encodings up or down in
+ the list.
+
+
+
+
+
To change the default fonts within a language group:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Appearance category, click Fonts. (If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Appearance to expand the list.)
+
From the Fonts for drop-down list, choose a language
+ group/script. For instance, to set default fonts for West European
+ languages/script, choose Western.
+
Select whether proportional text should be serif (like Times Roman) or
+ sans serif (like Arial). You can also specify what font size you want for
+ proportional text. Proportional text varies in width.
+
(If available) Select a font for Serif, Sans-Serif, Cursive, and
+ Fantasy.
+
Select the monospace font (like Courier) that you want to use for web
+ pages. Monospace text is fixed in width, so each character or letter takes
+ the same amount of space.
+
+
+
Many web page authors choose their own fonts and font sizes. You can use the
+ author's font settings by selecting Allow documents to use other
+ fonts.
The language you use for &brandShortName; affects the user
+ interface—text of buttons, dialog boxes, menus, tools, and other items.
+ You can download and install language packages from the
+ SeaMonkey Project
+ Releases page and then use the
+ Appearance Preferences
+ panel to switch user interface language.
+
+
A web page can sometimes be available in several languages. In the
+ Languages Preferences
+ panel, you can configure &brandShortName; so the page is shown in the
+ language you prefer. You can have multiple languages and list them in order
+ of preference.
Finding a &brandShortName; version in your
+ own language
+
+
If you're looking for a version of &brandShortName; in a language other
+ than American English, you can download it from the
+ SeaMonkey
+ Project Releases page.
The browser can handle many types of files. However, for some files, such as
+ movies or music, &brandShortName; needs plugins or helper applications
+ that can handle those files. If the browser doesn't have the needed
+ helper application or plugin, it can still save the file to your hard disk.
+ When saving files, you can keep track of them using Download Manager.
+
+
Plugins
+
+
Plugins are helper applications that extend the functionality within the
+ browser and run within &brandShortName;. Plugins like Sun Java, Macromedia
+ Flash, and RealNetworks RealPlayer allow &brandShortName; to show multimedia
+ files and run small applications, such as movies, animations, and games.
+
+
&brandShortName; comes with no additional plugins installed, so you have
+ to add them separately.
+
+
To see a full list of &brandShortName; plugins you can install, see the
+ PluginDoc page on MozDev.org.
+
+
To see what plugins you currently have installed, do any of the following:
+
+
+
+
Open the Help menu and choose About Plugins.
+
Click in the Location Bar, type about:plugins and press
+ ReturnEnter.
When files can not be used within &brandShortName;, you have the option to
+ launch helper applications that open outside of &brandShortName;. For
+ example, to play MP3 files, programs like Winamp can be opened outside of
+ &brandShortName;.
You can use Download Manager to keep track of files you download. Download
+ Manager shows the following information:
+
+
+
filename
+
time remaining before download is complete
+
transfer speed
+
percent complete
+
time elapsed
+
web location (source)
+
+
+
To open Download Manager, do the following:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu and choose Download Manager.
+
+
+
The following menu options are available in Download Manager:
+
+
+
Properties: Select a file being downloaded and click
+ Properties to show the progress dialog box.
+
Cancel: Select a file being downloaded and click Cancel
+ to stop the download.
+
Remove from List: Select a file and click Remove from
+ List to remove a canceled or finished download. This will not delete the
+ file from your hard disk.
+
Launch File: Click this to open a selected file.
+
Show in Explorer
+ Browser Finder: Click this to show
+ the location of a selected file.
When you bring a web page to your screen, &brandShortName; automatically
+ loads (starts up) several features that help interpret web pages. These
+ features, Java and JavaScript, can make web pages more lively, but they take
+ time to load.
Bookmark keywords allow you to create shorthand aliases for bookmarks and
+ Web searches. For example, if you give the bookmark to http://www.mozilla.org
+ the keyword m.o, you can enter m.o in the Location Bar and
+ the browser will load http://www.mozilla.org.
+
+
To set a keyword, you must first create a bookmark for the URL. Then,
+
+
+
Open the Bookmarks menu and choose Manage Bookmarks.
+
In the Bookmarks window, click on the bookmark that you created.
+
Click Properties.
+
In the bookmark Properties dialog box window, enter a short string into
+ the Keyword field and close that dialog.
+
+
+
Now, you can enter the keyword in the Location Bar, and &brandShortName;
+ will load that URL.
+
+
Search with Keywords
+
+
Custom keywords can be used to create shortcuts for your favorite search
+ engines, too. For example, you can create a keyword so that entering
+ g Lord of the Rings will perform a Google I-Feel-Lucky search
+ on Lord of the Rings.
+
+
To create a custom keyword for use with a Web search:
+
+
+
Go to your search form (e.g. www.google.com).
+
Enter a dummy search string (e.g. ILoveMozilla).
+
Submit the search query.
+
After the results have loaded, open the Bookmarks menu and choose File
+ Bookmark.
+
In the File Bookmark dialog, look the Location field. Replace the
+ dummy string (e.g. ILoveMozilla) with %s.
+ For example, the location might become
+ http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&btnI=I'mFeelingLucky.
+
Enter a keyword in the Keyword field.
+
Give the bookmark a name and choose the location for the bookmark.
+
Close the dialog.
+
+
+
Now you can search without going to the search page first by entering
+ keywordsearch_words in the Location Bar.
+
Your computer stores copies of frequently accessed pages in the cache. This
+ way, the computer doesn't have to retrieve the page from the network
+ each time you view it.
+
+
To set the size of the cache or to clear it:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Advanced category, click Cache. (If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Advanced to expand the list.)
+
Enter a number in the Size field to specify the size of the cache. 50 MB
+ is sufficient. To clear the cache immediately, click Clear Cache.
+
+
+
Important: A larger disk cache allows more pages to be
+ quickly retrieved, but more of your hard disk space is used.
+
+
When you quit &brandShortName;, it performs cache maintenance. If
+ maintenance takes longer than you wish, try reducing the size of the disk
+ cache.
+
+
To specify how often the browser checks the network for page revisions (so
+ that you don't keep stale pages in the cache too long):
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Advanced category, click Cache. (If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Advanced to expand the list.)
+
Choose from the following options:
+
+
Every time I view the page: Select this if you want
+ &brandShortName; to compare a web page to the cache every time you view
+ it.
+
When the page is out of date: Select this if you
+ want &brandShortName; to compare a web page to the cache when the page
+ is determined by the server to have expired.
+
Once per session: Select this if you want
+ &brandShortName; to compare a web page to the cache once for each time
+ you start &brandShortName;.
+
Never: Select this if you do not want
+ &brandShortName; to compare cached information to the network.
+
+
+
+
+
If pages that should be in the cache are taking longer to appear than they
+ should, make sure the preference is not set to Every time I view the
+ page, because the verification requires a network connection that takes
+ time.
+
+
To refresh a page at any time:
+
+
+
Click the Reload button in the browser's Navigation Toolbar. The
+ computer checks the network to make sure you have the latest version of the
+ page.
&brandShortName; can notify you when updates for your software are
+ available, and it can install the updates automatically. &brandShortName; can
+ also inform you when new versions of &brandShortName; and installed add-ons
+ are available.
&brandShortName; is best known for displaying web pages, both on the
+ Internet and on your computer. To easily open web pages, you can make
+ &brandShortName; your default browser.
+
+
Common Internet Files and
+ Protocols
+
+
Making &brandShortName; your default browser allows it to automatically
+ open common file formats and protocols used on the Internet. Common
+ Internet file formats and protocols include the following:
After installation is finished, &brandShortName; checks to see if it is
+ the default browser for any of the common Internet file formats or
+ protocols. If it isn't, you are asked, &brandShortName; is not
+ currently set as your default browser. Would you like to make it your
+ default browser?
+
+
Click Yes to make &brandShortName; the default browser. If you click No,
+ you will be prompted with this question each time &brandShortName;
+ starts, unless you deselect the checkbox Check at startup next time,
+ too.
+
+
If you deselect the checkbox, Check at startup next time, too,
+ you can still make &brandShortName; the default browser by changing your
+ settings in Preferences. To learn how to set &brandShortName; as the
+ default browser through &brandShortName; preferences, see
+ Browser Preferences -
+ Browser.
+
+
Customizing Default Browser
+ Settings
+
+
You can manually customize how &brandShortName; handles various file
+ formats and protocols. For more information, see
+ Advanced Preferences -
+ System.
Many organizations block access from the Internet to their networks. This
+ prevents outside parties from gaining access to sensitive information. The
+ protection is called a firewall.
+
+
If your organization has a firewall, the browser may need to go through a
+ proxy server before connecting you to the Internet. The proxy server prevents
+ outsiders from breaking into your organization's private network.
+
+
Before you start:
+
+
+
If there's a proxy configuration file at your workplace, ask the
+ system administrator for its URL.
+
If there's no proxy configuration file, ask your system
+ administrator for the names and port numbers of the servers running proxy
+ software for each network service.
+
+
+
To set the browser to work with the proxy:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Advanced category, click Proxies. (If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Browser to expand the list.)
+
Select one of the following:
+
+
Direct connection to the Internet: Choose this if
+ you don't want to use a proxy.
+
Automatically discover the proxy configuration:
+ Choose this if you want &brandShortName; to automatically detect and
+ configure the proxy settings, using the
+ WPAD protocol.
+
Automatic proxy configuration URL: Choose this if
+ you have a proxy configuration file or URL, then enter the
+ configuration URL.
+
Manual proxy configuration: Choose this if you
+ don't have a proxy location (URL), or the automatic proxy
+ discovery was unable to setup the proxy settings correctly.
+
+
Proxy: Enter the name or numeric IP address of
+ the proxy server.
No Proxy for: Type the domains and/or IP
+ addresses that you do not want to use a proxy for. Separate each
+ entry with a comma. (Example: .mozilla.org, .net.nz,
+ 192.168.1.0/24.)
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Domain names are the part of a URL that contains the name of an
+ organization, business, or school—such as mozilla.org or
+ washington.org. If you use local host names without the domain name, list
+ them the same way. Use commas to separate multiple host names. The wildcard
+ character [*] cannot be used.
The Page Info dialog box consists of several tabs that display different
+ kinds of information about the page you are viewing. This section provides a
+ brief overview of the information available in each tab.
+
+
To view Page Info for the page currently displayed by the browser, open the
+ View menu and choose Page Info. You can then click the tab that corresponds
+ to the kind of information you want to view.
+
+
Most of the information displayed by the General, Forms, Links and Media
+ tabs in Page Info is taken from the HTML source for the page. This
+ information is usually of interest only to web developers and other
+ specialists.
+
+
For detailed information about HTML, including the tags displayed by Page
+ Info, see the HTML 4.01
+ Specification.
When you choose Page Info from the View menu, the General tab displays basic
+ information about the page that you are viewing in the browser.
+
+
The top portion displays the the name of the page (if it has one) and the
+ following information:
+
+
+
URL: The
+ Uniform Resource Locator for the
+ page—that is, the standardized address that appears in the Location
+ Bar near the top of the browser window.
+
Render mode: Indicates whether the browser is using
+ quirks mode or standards compliance mode
+ to lay out the page. Quirks mode takes account of nonstandard behavior that
+ may be used by some older web pages designed for older versions of web
+ browsers that are not fully standards compliant. Standards compliance mode
+ adheres strictly to standards specifications. Your browser chooses the
+ render mode automatically according to information contained in the web
+ page itself.
+
Source: Indicates whether the source code for this page
+ has been cached.
+
Encoding: The character encoding used for this HTML
+ document.
+
Size: The size of the file, if available.
+
Modified: The date the page was last modified, if
+ available.
+
Expires: The date on which the information displayed by
+ the page expires.
+
+
+
The bottom portion displays the metatags specified by the page. Metatags
+ provide information about the type of content displayed by a page, such as a
+ general description of the page, keywords for search engines, copyright
+ information, and so on.
+
+
Forms (Page Info Tab)
+
+
When you choose Page Info from the View menu and click the Forms tab, you
+ see information about all the forms displayed by the page you are currently
+ viewing in the browser.
+
+
The top portion lists basic information about the way each form in the page
+ is specified in the HTML source:
+
+
+
Name: The form's name, if any.
+
Method: The HTML method used to send information
+ captured by the form back to the web server. GET appends your
+ filled-in values to the website address to which it submits the form.
+ POST sends the values to the website as parameters that can be
+ read by a program on the website.
+
Form Action: The URL of the program to be invoked when
+ the form is submitted.
+
+
+
When you select a form listed in the top portion of the Forms tab, the
+ bottom portion displays detailed information about the way each of of that
+ form's elements is specified in the HTML source:
+
+
+
Label: The element's label (if it is tagged as such
+ in the HTML).
+
Field Name: The element's name.
+
Type: The element's input type, such as
+ TEXT (for submitting text), RADIO (for a radio button),
+ or HIDDEN (for storing information that is submitted but not
+ displayed on the screen).
+
Current Value: The current value of the element. For
+ example, the current value of a text element is the text it currently
+ contains.
+
+
+
Links (Page Info Tab)
+
+
When you choose Page Info from the View menu and click the Links tab, you
+ see a list of all the links available on that page. The following information
+ is displayed for each link:
+
+
+
Name: The text displayed in the browser as a link.
+
Address: The URL for the
+ page to which the link points.
+
Type: The type of link, such Anchor (for a link to a
+ specific place in an HTML document) or Form Submission.
+
+
+
Media (Page Info Tab)
+
+
When you choose Page Info from the View menu and click the Media tab, you
+ see a list of all the images and other media elements displayed by the
+ page.
+
+
The top portion lists basic information about each element, including its
+ address (URL) and type.
+
+
When you select a media element listed in the top portion of the Media tab,
+ the bottom portion displays available information about that element, such as
+ description, size, or dimensions.
+
+
You can also see the selected element at the bottom of the dialog box. To
+ see larger images, you need to click the lower-right corner of the Page Info
+ dialog box and drag.
+
+
To save a media element as a separate file:
+
+
+
Save As: Select the element you want to save, click Save
+ As, and navigate to the location where you want to save it.
+
+
+
Privacy (Page Info Tab)
+
+
When you choose Page Info from the View menu and click the Privacy tab, you
+ see a list of all the special elements that are part of the page.
+
+
+
Page Components: Under the page URL, there are many
+ categories. To see the list of items in any category, double-click on
+ the name:
+

+ Policy Viewer, showing concise data about the privacy policy of the site
+ you are browsing.
+
Options: This will try to open the page on the remote
+ site that allows the user to modify his/her own personal data stored on the
+ remote site.
+
+
+
Security (Page Info Tab)
+
+
When you choose Page Info from the View menu and click the Security tab, you
+ see information about
+ authentication and
+ encryption for the web page you are
+ viewing. The top portion indicates whether the website's identity has
+ been verified, and the bottom portion describes whether the page was
+ encrypted when it was received by the browser.
+
+
You can also open the Security tab directly by clicking the lock icon in the
+ lower-right corner of any browser window.
+
+
The top portion of the Security tab can display any of these messages:
+
+
+
Website Identity Not Verified: The website you are
+ viewing did not present a certificate to authenticate itself. Therefore,
+ Certificate Manager cannot verify its identity. It is possible, though
+ unlikely, that the website is not what it claims to be.
+
Website Identity Verified: The certificate that
+ Certificate Manager has used to verify this website's identity was
+ issued by a certificate authority (CA) marked as one that you trust. You
+ can be reasonably confident that the website is what it claims to be.
+
+
+
The bottom portion of the Security tab can display any of these
+ messages:
+
+
+
Connection Not Encrypted: It is possible that other
+ people can view information sent from your computer to the website or
+ information sent by the website to your computer, but it is unlikely that
+ someone is actually doing so.
+
Connection Encrypted: In general, the strength of an
+ encrypted connection depends on the length of the keys used for encryption,
+ measured in bits. The longer the key, the stronger the
+ encryption—that is, the harder it is to for an unauthorized person to
+ unscramble the encrypted information.
+
+
The Page Info window describes encryption strength in one of three
+ ways:
+
+
+
High-grade encryption: Strongest encryption
+ available, using 128-bit keys at a minimum.
+
Medium-grade encryption: Somewhat stronger than
+ low-grade encryption, using 56- or 64-bit keys.
+
Low-grade encryption: Weakest encryption available,
+ using 40-bit keys.
+
+
+
Most websites support high-grade encryption. If you are viewing an older
+ website that supports a weaker form of encryption, it is possible that
+ other people can view information sent from your computer to the website
+ or information sent by the website to your computer, but it is unlikely
+ that someone is actually doing so.
+
+
+
+
Lack of any encryption or lack of strong encryption should be of concern
+ only if you are sending or viewing confidential information, such as your
+ credit card number.
+
+
You can quickly check the encryption status of a web page by noting the
+ state of the lock icon at the bottom-right corner of the browser window. For
+ more details, see
+ Checking
+ Security for a Web Page.
This section describes the Passwords preferences panel. If you're not
+ already viewing it, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
Password Manager
+
+
Password Manager preferences allow you to
+
+
+
Remember passwords: Select this checkbox to turn
+ Password Manager on, so that it asks to store your user names and passwords
+ at appropriate times and enters them for you automatically when
+ they're requested. To turn off Password Manager, deselect the same
+ checkbox.
+
Manage Stored Passwords: Click this button to manage
+ information about your stored passwords and the sites whose user names and
+ passwords you don't want to be stored.
+
+
+
For detailed information about using Password Manager, including how to
+ override it for individual sites and how to view and manage stored passwords,
+ see Using the
+ Password Manager.
+
+
Encrypting Versus Obscuring
+
+
If you use Password Manager or Form Manager to save passwords and personal
+ data, this sensitive information is stored on your computer in a file
+ that's difficult, but not impossible, for an intruder to read. This way
+ of storing information is sometimes described as obscuring. This
+ is the default setting that applies to information stored by Password Manager
+ or Form Manager.
+
+
For improved protection, you may choose to protect the file with encryption.
+ Encryption makes it more difficult (but again, not impossible) for an
+ unauthorized person to view your stored sensitive information.
+
+
+
Use encryption when storing sensitive data: Select this
+ checkbox to turn on encryption, or deselect it to turn off encryption.
+
+
+
If you have not previously set a
+ master password, you will be
+ asked to create one. To do so, follow the instructions as they appear on your
+ screen.
+
+
Using encryption versus obscuring for stored sensitive data is a tradeoff
+ between improved security and convenience:
+
+
+
If you use encryption, you will need to enter a master password
+ periodically, which can be inconvenient. (For information about controlling
+ how often it is requested, see the discussion of the Master Password
+ timeout at
+ Privacy & Security Preferences - Master
+ Passwords.)
+
If you use obscuring, you may not have to set a master password at all
+ (unless you're using certificates for identification purposes), but it
+ may be easier for a stranger who has access to your computer to steal your
+ passwords.
This section describes how to use Password Manager dialog box to control
+ your stored passwords. If you are not already viewing it, follow these
+ steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Manage Stored Passwords.
+
+
+
Alternatively, open the Tools menu, choose Password manager, and then choose
+ Manage Stored Passwords from the submenu.
+
+
The Password Manager has two tabs:
+
+
+
Passwords Saved: Click this tab to view the list of
+ sites for which Password Manager has saved your user name and
+ password—that is, the sites for which you selected Yes
+ in response to Password Manager's request to store logon
+ information.
+
+
The second column shows the user name for each site. If the password is
+ stored in encrypted form, (encrypted) appears after the user
+ name.
+
+
By default, stored passwords are not displayed.
+
+
+
To see the list of stored passwords, click Show Passwords and confirm
+ your choice.
+
To hide the passwords, click Hide Passwords.
+
+
+
If you remove an entry from the list, the stored user name and password
+ will be discarded, and you will need to log in manually the next time you
+ visit that site.
+
+
Passwords Never Saved: Click this tab to view the list
+ of sites for which you selected Never for this site in response
+ to Password Manager's request to store logon information.
+
+
If a site is included on this list, you will always have to type in your
+ user name and password manually when you log onto the site.
+
+
If you remove an entry from this list, Password Manager will again ask
+ you, the next time you log onto the site, whether to store your user name
+ and password.
+
+
+
+
Regardless of which tab you are viewing, you can remove entries from the
+ list as follows:
+
+
+
Remove: Select one or more entries that you want to
+ remove, then click Remove.
+
Remove All: Click this button to remove all the entries
+ listed in the tab you are viewing.
This section describes the Master Passwords preferences panel. If you are
+ not already viewing it, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
A master password protects a security device, which is a software or
+ hardware device that stores sensitive information associated with your
+ identity, such as keys or certificates.
+
+
For example, the browser has a built-in Software Security Device, and you
+ can also use external security devices, such as smart cards, if your computer
+ is configured to use them.
+
+
The master password for the browser's built-in Software Security Device
+ also protects stored sensitive information such as email passwords, website
+ passwords, and other data stored by the Password Manager and Form
+ Manager.
+
+
Each security device, whether it is software or hardware, has its own
+ separate Master Password.
+
+
+
Change Password: Click this button to set or change any
+ of your master passwords. For information about using the Change Master
+ Password dialog box that appears when you click this button, see
+ Change Master Password.
+
You can control how often the browser requests your master password:
+
+
The first time it is needed: This setting
+ (selected by default) causes the browser to request your master
+ password only the first time it needs access to the private key
+ database after launching. The browser will not request the master
+ password again until after you exit and relaunch it. This setting
+ provides the lowest level of protection.
+
Every time it is needed: This setting ensures that
+ the browser will never access your saved personal information without
+ first requesting your master password. This setting provides the
+ highest level of protection.
+
If it has not been used for [__] minutes or longer:
+ This setting causes the browser to request your master password if it
+ needs to access your personal information and the specified interval
+ has elapsed since the last time it did so.
+
+
+
Reset Master Password: Click this button to reset the
+ master password for the Software Security Device. For more information,
+ see Reset Master Password.
+
+
+
Change Master Password
+
+
You must remember your old master password to change it with the Change
+ Password button.
+
+
This section describes the Change Master Password dialog box. If you're
+ not already viewing it, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If
+ no subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Change Password.
+
+
+
A master password protects a security device, which is a software or
+ hardware device that stores sensitive information associated with your
+ identity, such as keys or certificates.
+
+
For example, the browser has a built-in Software Security Device, and you
+ can also use external security devices, such as smart cards, if your computer
+ is configured to use them.
+
+
The master password for the browser's built-in Software Security Device
+ also protects your master key. Your master key is used to encrypt sensitive
+ information such as email passwords, website passwords, and other data stored
+ by the Password Manager and Form Manager.
+
+
You use the Change Master Password dialog box to provide the following
+ information:
+
+
+
Security Device: Each security device requires a
+ separate master password. For example, if you are using one or more smart
+ cards to store some of your certificates, you should set a separate master
+ password for each one. If more than one security device is available, a
+ drop-down list at the top of the Set Master Password dialog box allows you
+ to choose the device whose password you want to change.
+
Current password: If you are changing an existing master
+ password, you must first type the current password. If you don't type
+ the current password correctly, you will see the message You did not
+ enter the current correct Master Password after you click OK. If this
+ happens, you must retype your current password.
+
New password: Type your new password into this
+ field.
+
New password (again): Type your new password again. If
+ you don't type it the second time exactly as you did the first time,
+ the OK button remains inactive. If this happens, try typing the new
+ password again.
+
+
+
If someone uses your computer who knows or can guess your master password,
+ that person may be able to access websites while pretending to be you. This
+ can be dangerous—for example, if you manage your financial accounts
+ over the Internet.
+
+
Therefore, it's important to select a master password that's
+ difficult to guess. The password quality meter gives you a
+ rough idea of the quality of your password as you type it based on factors
+ such as length and the use of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers,
+ and symbols. It does not guarantee, however, that no one will be able to
+ guess your password.
It's also important to record your master password in a safe
+ place—and not anywhere that's easily accessible
+ to someone else. If you forget this password, you may not be able to access
+ important information, such as websites that require passwords or
+ certificates stored on your computer.
+
+
Master Password Timeout
+
+
After you first set a new master password, you will be asked to enter it
+ only when the newly launched browser first needs it to access personal
+ information, such as a user name and password or personal certificates.
+
+
You can control how often the browser requests your master password:
+
+
+
The first time it is needed: This setting
+ (selected by default) causes the browser to request your master password
+ only the first time it needs access to the private key database after
+ launching. The browser will not request the master password again until
+ after you exit and relaunch it. This setting provides the lowest level
+ of protection.
+
Every time it is needed: This setting ensures that
+ the browser will never access your saved personal information without
+ first requesting your master password. This setting provides the highest
+ level of protection.
+
If it has not been used for [__] minutes or longer:
+ This setting causes the browser to request your master password if it
+ needs to access your personal information and the specified interval
+ has elapsed since the last time it did so.
+
+
+
Reset Master Password
+
+
Warning: If you reset your master password, you will
+ permanently erase all the encrypted web and email passwords, saved on your
+ behalf by Password Manager. You will also lose all your personal certificates
+ associated with the
+ Software Security Device.
+
+
Note that encrypted passwords will be lost only if you have turned on
+ encryption for this stored information. For information about turning
+ encryption on or off, see
+ Turning
+ Encryption On and Off.
+
+
To change your master password rather than resetting it, click the Change
+ Password button in the Master Passwords preferences panel.
+
+
This section describes the Reset Master Password dialog box. If you're
+ not already viewing it, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If
+ no subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Reset Password.
+
+
+
Warning: If you reset your master password, you will
+ permanently erase all encrypted web and email passwords, saved on your behalf
+ by Password Manager You will also lose all your personal certificates
+ associated with the
+ software security
+ device.
+
+
Encrypted passwords will be lost only if you have turned on encryption for
+ this stored information. For information about turning encryption on or off,
+ see Turning
+ Encryption On and Off.
+
+
If you remember your master password and decide to change it, you can do so
+ without danger of losing any personal information. If you are viewing the
+ Reset Master Password alert and you decide you want to change your password
+ rather than resetting it, click Cancel to return to the Master Passwords
+ preferences panel, then click Change Password. For details, see
+ Change Master Password.
+
+
Resetting your master password is a last resort that you should use only if
+ you are absolutely sure you've forgotten it. The seriousness of the
+ situation depends on how much personal data your forgotten master password
+ protects.
+
+
Resetting your master password does not create a new password. Instead, it
+ removes all the data your old master password protects. You will be asked to
+ specify a new master password the next time the browser needs to store
+ personal information.
+
+
After you reset your master password, you may also want to re-save personal
+ information that you want to have prefilled in the future. For example, as
+ you browse you may want Password Manager to save website and email passwords
+ again.In addition, any personal certificates associated with the software
+ security device will be permanently erased and you will need to apply for new
+ ones.
+
+
Note for smart card users: Each smart card has its own
+ master password. The master password for a smart card protects only the data
+ on that smart card (such as personal certificates). You can normally change
+ the master password for a smart card (assuming that you remember it), but you
+ cannot reset it.
+

Choosing a Good Password
+
+
Choosing a good password will help in keeping your personal information
+ safe and private. To improve the security of your password, follow some
+ or all of these suggestions:
+
+
+
Special and punctuation characters (*!$+) mixed with letters and
+ numbers.
+
Mixed upper and lower-case letters—putting capitals in random
+ locations throughout a password is effective.
+
Nonsense words that aren't found in dictionaries but are easy to
+ pronounce.
+
Eight or more characters.
+
+
+
You should avoid personal information that could be guessed. So the
+ following common items should be avoided:
+
+
+
Personal or family names, your initials or birthdays.
+
Your social security number.
+
Names of pets or famous places.
+
Phone numbers or addresses.
+
Words from any kind of dictionary.
+
Your username, login name or computer's name.
+
Repetition of the same letter or symbol.
+
Sequences of keyboard keys, such as 12345 or qwerty.
+
Any minor modification of the above, such as appending a character to the
+ end of your name or spelling backwards.
+
+
+
A good way to choose a secure but easily remembered password is to use the
+ first character of each word in a phrase. For instance, StNh*nbsS
+ stands for Surfing the Net has never been so Suite; the asterisk in
+ the middle is included for increased security. (Don't use this
+ password!)
+
+
To further protect your personal data, you are advised to follow these
+ simple rules:
+
+
+
Never give the password out to anyone.
+
If someone has learnt your password, change it immediately.
+
Every few months, change your password.
+
Choose a password you can remember so you don't have to write it
+ down.
+
Avoid letting people observe you typing your password.

+
Using Privacy Features
+
+
Your browser includes features you can use to enhance the privacy and
+ security of your personal information. The sections that follow describe how
+ your browser can help you control cookies, passwords, and images while you
+ are surfing the Internet.
This section summarizes some background information about privacy on the
+ Internet. It also describes several things you can do to help safeguard your
+ own privacy. It is not intended to provide a complete description of Internet
+ privacy issues.
What Information
+ Does My Browser Give to a Web Site?
+
+
When your browser displays a web page—for example, each time you click
+ a link or type a URL, or when a web page is displayed in an email
+ message—it gives certain kinds of information to the site. This
+ information may include (but is not limited to) your operating environment,
+ your Internet address, and the page you're coming from.
+
+
Operating Environment
+
+
The site is told something about your operating environment, such as your
+ browser type and operating system. This helps the site present the page in
+ the best way for your screen. For example, the site might learn that you use
+ the French version of Mozilla 1.2 on a Windows 2000 computer.
+
+
Internet Address
+
+
Your browser must tell the site your Internet address (also known as the
+ Internet Protocol, or IP address) so the site knows where to send the page
+ you are requesting. The site can't present the page you want to see
+ unless it knows your IP address.
+
+
Your IP address can be either temporary or fixed (static).
+
+
If you connect to the Internet through a standard modem that's attached
+ to your phone line, then your Internet service provider (ISP) may assign you
+ a temporary IP address each time you log on. You use the temporary IP address
+ for the duration of your Internet session—for example, until you sign
+ off or hang up your dial-up connection, or otherwise end your computer's
+ live connection with the Internet. Each ISP has many IP addresses, and they
+ assign the addresses at random to users.
+
+
If you have DSL, a cable modem, or a fiber-optic connection, you may have a
+ fixed IP address that you use every time you connect.
+
+
Your IP address is not the same as your email address.
+
+
Referring Page
+
+
The site is also told which page you were reading when you clicked a link to
+ see one of the site's pages. This allows the site to know which site
+ referred you. Or, as you traverse the site, it allows the site to know which
+ of its pages you came from.
A cookie is a small bit of information used by some web sites. When you
+ visit a site that uses cookies, the site might ask your browser to place one
+ or more cookies on your hard disk.
+
+
Later, when you return to the site, your browser sends back the cookies that
+ belong to the site.
+
+
When you are using the default cookie settings, this activity is invisible
+ to you, and you won't know when a site is setting a cookie or when your
+ browser is sending a web site's cookie back. However, you can set your
+ preferences so that you will be asked before a cookie is set. For information
+ on how to do this, see
+ Privacy & Security Preferences -
+ Cookies.
+
+
How Do Sites Use Cookie Information?
+
+
Cookies allow a site to know something about your previous visits. For
+ example, if you typically search for local weather or purchase books at a web
+ site, the site may use cookies to remember what city you live in or what
+ authors you like, so it can make your next visit easier and more useful.
+
+
Some websites publish privacy policies that describe how they use the
+ information they gather.
+
+
What Are Third-Party Cookies?
+
+
If your browser stores a site's cookie, it will return the cookie only
+ to that particular site. Your browser will not provide one site with cookies
+ set by another. Since a web site can only receive its own cookies, it can
+ learn about your activities while you are at that site but not your
+ activities in general while surfing the Web.
+
+
But sometimes a web site displays content that is hosted on another web
+ site. That content can be anything from an image to text or an advertisement.
+ The other web site that hosts such elements also has the ability to store a
+ cookie in your browser, even though you don't visit the site directly.
+
+
+
Cookies that are stored by a site other than the one you are visiting are
+ called third-party cookies or foreign
+ cookies. Web sites sometimes use third-party cookies with
+ transparent GIFs, which are special images that help sites
+ count users, track email responses, learn more about how visitors use the
+ site, or customize your browsing experience. (Transparent GIFs are also known
+ as web beacons or web bugs.)
+
+
If you want, you can adjust your cookie preferences so that sites can store
+ ordinary cookies but not third-party ones.
You can disable cookies, images, JavaScript, and plugins completely for
+ web pages that are received as part of email messages.
+
+
While it may be convenient to enable some or all of these capabilities when
+ you're browsing the web, they may not be necessary in single web pages
+ sent as attachments to messages.
+
+
For information on enabling or disabling cookies, images, JavaScript, and
+ plugins in email messages, see the following sections:
How
+ Can I Make Sure Unauthorized People Don't Use Information About Me?
+
+
The best way to keep your information private is to read the privacy
+ policies for the web sites you visit and the Internet services you use, and
+ to be cautious about giving out your personal information online.
+
+
The Internet is a public network. When you send your name, phone number,
+ address, and other personal information over the network (via a web page,
+ email, or any other method), it is possible that someone else may be able to
+ intercept it.
+
+
Here are some questions you might ask about a web site's privacy
+ policy:
+
+
+
What kinds of personal information is this site gathering?
+
How will the site use the information?
+
Will the site share the information with others and do I have choices
+ regarding the use of any shared information?
+
Can I access some or all of the information a site gathers about me, in
+ order to inspect or update it?
+
How does the site protect the information?
+
How do I contact the web site if I have questions or problems?
The sections listed below describe the Privacy & Security preferences.
+ To see the preference panels, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Click the Privacy & Security category. If no subcategories are
+ visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand the list, then
+ click the name for the preferences you want to view or change.
+
+
+
For help with a panel's settings, click the appropriate link below.
If you use the Internet at home and at work, you may want to have access to
+ a different set of bookmarks, preferences, address books, email accounts,
+ Sidebar setup, and so on. Similarly, family members may want to share a copy
+ of the same browser software but keep their Internet identities separate.
+
+
The Profile Manager lets you create different profiles, each with its own
+ bookmarks, preferences, email settings, and so on. You automatically create a
+ default profile when you first install your browser software. After you
+ create one or more additional profiles, you will be asked which you want to
+ use each time you launch the browser.
If &brandShortName; is running: Open the Tools menu
+ and select Switch Profile.
+
If &brandShortName; is closed:
+ Open the Start menu and choose Programs, then &brandShortName;, then
+ Profile Manager. Hold down the
+ Option key while you're starting &brandShortName; from
+ the Finder or the Dock. Type the following at
+ the command line: ./mozilla -profilemanager
+
+
+
Click Create Profile, read the Profile description, and then click
+ Next.
+
Enter a profile name. This can be anything you like, such as your real
+ name or a name that's related to what you use the profile for, such as
+ School.
+
Accept the default location for the new profile, or click the Choose
+ Folder button and navigate to the location you want.
+
If you have additional Language Packs installed, click
+ Select Language and choose the language you want.
You may want to delete profiles that you don't normally use. To delete
+ or rename an existing profile:
+
+
+
Open the Profile Manager:
+
+
If &brandShortName; is running: Open the Tools menu
+ and select Switch Profile. Note: You can't delete
+ the profile that is in use.
+
If &brandShortName; is closed:
+ Open the Start menu and choose Programs, then
+ &brandShortName;, then Profile Manager. Hold
+ down the Option key while you're starting
+ &brandShortName; from the Finder or the Dock.
+ Type the following at the command line:
+ ./mozilla -profilemanager
+
+
+
To delete a profile, select its name and click Delete Profile. In the
+ confirmation box, choose one of the following options:
+
+
Delete files: Deletes the whole profile folder
+ with its stored data (bookmarks, preferences, email
+ accounts, and so on). Make sure that you won't need anything
+ from the profile in the future before you choose this option.
+
Don't delete files: Removes the profile from
+ the list of available profiles, but keeps the profile folder. By
+ choosing this option none of your profile's stored data will be
+ deleted.
+
+
+
To rename a profile, select its name, click Rename Profile, and follow the
+ instructions.
Roaming profiles allow you to store your profile and associated settings on
+ a central server or file share. The advantage of this is that your settings
+ can follow you from one machine to another. For example, you may wish to use
+ &brandShortName; both at work and at home keeping your bookmarks, address
+ book, and other settings in sync, or a company may want to allow its
+ employees to use their &brandShortName; profile on any computer.
+
+
Roaming profiles can be stored on a HTTP or FTP server. You will need a
+ user name and password on that server, so that you can have write access
+ to the appropriate directory for storing and retrieving your profile.
+ Alternatively, for computers that use a common file share, you can store
+ the profile in a local directory using the Copy method.
+
+
Whenever you start &brandShortName;, your profile is downloaded and whenever
+ you shutdown &brandShortName;, your profile is uploaded.
This section describes how to use the main Roaming User preferences panel.
+ If you're not already viewing it, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Click on the Roaming User category.
+
Select Enable remote profile storage to activate roaming
+ for the current profile.
+
Select one of the following:
+
+
HTTP / FTP: Choose this if you wish to have the
+ profile information copied to a FTP or HTTP server.
+
+
Base URL: Type the URL of the directory where
+ the roaming profile will be stored. This can be an FTP, HTTP or
+ HTTPS URL. FTP is probably easiest to set up on a home network.
+ In other cases, especially when transmitting over the Internet,
+ it is strongly recommended to use HTTPS, because otherwise, all
+ your saved passwords and bookmarks (depending on your Item
+ Selection) might be read by other people on the same network.
+
+
By default, only bookmarks, cookies, and the personal addressbook are stored
+ on the roaming server. If all items are greyed out, make sure to have Roaming
+ enabled.To enable or disable roaming of other profile informations, follow
+ these steps:
+
+
+
Open the
+ &brandShortName;Edit
+ menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Roaming User category, click Item Selection. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Roaming User to expand the
+ list.)
+
Select the items that you wish to be included in the roaming profile
+ synchronization.
+
+
+
You cannot roam your local email, partly because that would take too long.
+ Use IMAP for this purpose.
+
+
Note: If you are using a slow connection, be aware that
+ some files can be quite large, so this will impact your startup time.
+ &brandShortName; will have to download locally all of the files you
+ selected from the list before being fully functional, and save them back
+ to the remote server when you exit &brandShortName;.

This section describes how to use the SSL preferences panel. If you are not
+ already viewing the panel, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click SSL. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
SSL Protocol Versions
+
+
The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol defines rules governing mutual
+ authentication between a web site and browser software and the encryption of
+ information that flows between them. The Transport Layer Security (TLS)
+ protocol is an IETF standard based on SSL. TLS 1.0 can be thought of as SSL
+ 3.1.
+
+
You should normally leave these three checkboxes selected to ensure that
+ both older and newer web servers can work with the browser:
+
+
+
Enable SSL version 3: Allows newer web servers to work
+ with the browser.
+
Enable TLS: Allows web servers that support TLS to take
+ advantage of it.
+
+
+
Important note regarding TLS: Some servers that do not
+ implement SSL correctly cannot negotiate the SSL handshake with client
+ software (such as the browser) that supports TLS. Such servers are known as
+ TLS intolerant.
+
+
When the Enable TLS option in the SSL preferences panel is selected, the
+ browser attempts to use the TLS protocol when making secure connections with
+ a server. If that connection fails because the server is TLS intolerant, the
+ browser will fall back to using SSL 3.0.
+
+
SSL Warnings
+
+
It's easy to tell when the web site you are viewing is using an encrypted
+ connection. If the connection is encrypted, the lock icon in the lower-right
+ corner of the browser window is locked. If the connection is not encrypted,
+ the lock icon is unlocked.
+
+
If you want additional warnings, you can select one or more of the warning
+ checkboxes in the SSL preferences panel. Some people find these warnings
+ annoying.
+
+
To activate any of these warnings, select the corresponding checkbox:
+
+
+
Loading a page that supports encryption: Select this
+ warning if you want to be reminded whenever you are loading a page that
+ supports encryption.
+
Loading a page that uses low-grade encryption: Select
+ this warning if you want to be reminded whenever you are loading a page
+ that supports low-grade encryption. (Low-grade encryption is the weakest
+ encryption available, using 40-bit keys.)
+
Leaving a page that supports encryption: Select this
+ warning if you want to be reminded whenever you are leaving a page that
+ supports encryption for one that does not.
+
Sending form data from an unencrypted page to an unencrypted
+ page: Select this warning if you want to be reminded whenever you
+ are submitting data over an unencrypted connection. If you send unencrypted
+ information over the Internet, it can easily be intercepted by other
+ people.
+
Viewing a page with an encrypted/unencrypted mix:
+ Select this warning if you want to be alerted whenever you are viewing a
+ page that includes any information that's not encrypted.
A certificate is the digital equivalent of an ID card. Just as you may have
+ several ID cards for different purposes, such as a driver's license, an
+ employee ID card, or a credit card, you can have several different
+ certificates that identify you for different purposes.
+
+
This section describes how to perform operations related to
+ certificates.
Much like a credit card or a driver's license, a certificate is a form
+ of identification you can use to identify yourself over the Internet and
+ other networks. Like other commonly used personal IDs, a certificate is
+ typically issued by an organization with recognized authority to issue such
+ identification. An organization that issues certificates is called a
+ certificate authority (CA).
+
+
You can obtain certificates that identify you from public CAs, from system
+ administrators or special CAs within your organization, or from websites
+ offering specialized services that require a means of identification more
+ reliable that your name and password.
+
+
Just as the requirements for a driver's license vary depending on the
+ type of vehicle you want to drive, the requirements for obtaining a
+ certificate vary depending on what you want to use it for. In some cases
+ getting a certificate may be as easy as going to a website, entering some
+ personal information, and automatically downloading the certificate into your
+ browser. In other cases you may have to go through more complicated
+ procedures.
+
+
You can obtain a certificate today by visiting the URL for a certificate
+ authority and following the on-screen instructions. For a list of certificate
+ authorities issuing certificates recognized by &brandShortName;, see the
+ online document
+ Included
+ Certificate List.
+
+
Once you obtain a certificate, it is automatically stored in a
+ security device. Your browser
+ comes with its own built-in Software Security Device. A security device can
+ also be a piece of hardware, such as a smart card.
+
+
Like a driver's license or a credit card, a certificate is a valuable
+ form of identification that can be abused if it falls into the wrong hands.
+ Once you've obtained a certificate that identifies you, you should
+ protect it in two ways: by backing it up and by setting your
+ master password.
+
+
When you first obtain a certificate, you may be prompted to back it up. If
+ you haven't yet created a master password, you will be asked to create
+ one.
+
+
For detailed information about backing up a certificate and setting your
+ master password, see Your
+ Certificates.
When you're viewing any web page, the lock icon near the lower-right
+ corner of the window informs you whether the entire contents of the page was
+ protected by encryption while it was
+ being received by your computer:
+
+
+
+
+
A closed lock means that the page was protected by encryption when it
+ was received.
+
+
+
+
An open lock means the page was not protected by encryption when it was
+ received.
+
+
+
+
A broken lock means that some or all of the elements within the page
+ were not protected by encryption when the page was received, even though
+ the outermost HTML page was encrypted.
+
+
+
+
For more details about the encryption status of the page when it was
+ received, click the lock icon (or open the View menu, choose Page Info, and
+ click the Security tab).
+
+
The Security tab for Page Info provides two kinds of information:
+
+
+
The top half describes whether the website displaying the page has been
+ verified. (For information on certificate verification, see
+ Controlling Validation.)
+
The bottom half describes whether the contents of the page you are
+ viewing is protected by encryption while in transit over the network.
+
+
+
Important: The lock icon describes only the encryption
+ status of the page while it was being received by your computer. To be
+ notified before you send or receive information without encryption, select
+ the appropriate SSL warning options. See Privacy
+ & Security Preferences - SSL for details.
You can use the Certificate Manager to manage the certificates you have
+ available. Certificates may be stored on your computer's hard disk or on
+ smart cards or other security devices
+ attached to your computer.
+
+
To open the Certificate Manager:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Manage Certificates section, click Manage Certificates. You see
+ the Certificate Manager.
When you first open the Certificate Manager, you'll notice that it has
+ several tabs across the top of its window. The first tab is called Your
+ Certificates, and it displays the certificates your browser has available
+ that identify you. Your certificates are listed under the names of the
+ organizations that issued them.
+
+
To perform an action on one or more certificates, click the entry for the
+ certificate (or CmdCtrl-click
+ to select more than one), then click the View, Backup, or Delete button. Each
+ of these buttons brings up another window that allows you to perform the
+ action. Click the Help button in any window to obtain more information about
+ using that window.
+
+
The following buttons under Your Certificates don't require a
+ certificate to be selected. You use them to perform these actions:
+
+
+
Import: Click this button if you want to import a
+ certificate that you've previously backed up or transferred from one
+ machine to another.
+
Backup All: Click this button to back up all your own
+ certificates stored in the
+ Software Security
+ Device.
+
+

Important: Certificates on smart cards cannot be backed up.
+ Whether you select some of your certificates and click Backup, or click
+ Backup All, the resulting backup file will not include any certificates
+ stored on smart cards or other external security devices. You can only back
+ up certificates that are stored on the built-in Software Security Device.
When you compose a mail message, you can choose to attach your digital
+ signature to it. A digital
+ signature allows recipients of the message to verify that the message
+ really comes from you and hasn't been tampered with since you sent
+ it.
+
+
Every time you send a digitally signed message, your encryption certificate
+ is automatically included with the message. This certificate allows the
+ message recipients to send you encrypted messages.
+
+
One of the easiest ways to obtain someone else's encryption certificate
+ is for that person to send you a digitally signed message. Certificate
+ Manager automatically stores other people's certificates whenever they
+ are received in this way.
+
+
To view all the certificates identifying other people that are available to
+ the Certificate Manager, click the Other People's tab at the top of the
+ Certificate Manager window. You can send encrypted messages to anyone for
+ whom a valid certificate is listed. Certificates are listed under the names
+ of the organizations that issued them.
+
+
To perform an action on one or more certificates, click the entry for the
+ certificate (or CmdCtrl-click
+ to select more than one), then click the View or Delete button. Each of these
+ buttons brings up another window that allows you to perform the action. Click
+ the Help button in any window to obtain more information about using that
+ window.
Some websites use certificates to identify themselves. Such identification
+ is required before the website can encrypt information transferred between
+ the site and your computer (or vice versa), so that no one can read the data
+ while in transit.
+
+
If the URL for a website begins with https://, the website has a
+ certificate. If you visit such a website and its certificate was issued by a
+ CA that the Certificate Manager doesn't know about or doesn't
+ trust, you will be asked whether you want to accept the website's
+ certificate. When you accept a new website certificate, the Certificate
+ Manager adds it to its list of website certificates.
+
+
To view all the website certificates available to your browser, click the
+ Websites tab at the top of the Certificate Manager window.
+
+
To perform an action on one or more website certificates, click the entry
+ for the certificate (or Shift-clickto select more than one), then
+ click the View, Edit, or Delete button. Each of these buttons brings up
+ another window that allows you to perform the corresponding action.
+
+
The Edit button allows you to specify whether your browser will trust the
+ selected website certificates in the future.
Managing
+ Certificates that Identify Certificate Authorities
+
+
Like other commonly used forms of ID, a certificate is issued by an
+ organization with recognized authority to issue such identification. An
+ organization that issues certificates is called a
+ certificate authority
+ (CA). A certificate that identifies a CA is called a CA certificate.
+
+
Certificate Manager typically has many CA certificates on file. These CA
+ certificates permit Certificate Manager to recognize and work with
+ certificates issued by the corresponding CAs. However, the presence of a CA
+ certificate in this list does not guarantee that the certificates it
+ issues can be trusted. You or your system administrator must make decisions
+ about what kinds of certificates to trust depending on your security
+ needs.
+
+
To view all the CA certificates available to your browser, click the
+ Authorities tab at the top of the Certificate Manager window.
+
+
To perform an action on one or more CA certificates, click the entry for the
+ certificate (or CmdCtrl-click
+ to select more than one), then click the View, Edit, or Delete button. Each
+ of these buttons brings up another window that allows you to perform the
+ action. Click the Help button in any window to obtain more information about
+ using that window.
+
+
The Edit button allows you to view and control the trust settings for each
+ certificate. Trust settings for a CA certificate let you to specify which
+ kinds of certificates issued by that CA you are willing to trust.
A smart card is a small device, typically about the size of a credit card,
+ that contains a microprocessor and is capable of storing information about
+ your identity (such as your private
+ keys and certificates) and
+ performing cryptographic operations.
+
+
To use a smart card, you typically need to have a smart card reader (a piece
+ of hardware) attached to your computer, as well as software on your computer
+ that controls the reader.
+
+
A smart card is just one kind of security device. A security device
+ (sometimes called a token) is a hardware or software device that provides
+ cryptographic services and stores information about your identity. Use the
+ Device Manager to work with smart cards and other security devices.
The Device Manager displays a window that lists the available security
+ devices. You can use the Device Manager to manage any security devices,
+ including smart cards, that support the Public Key Cryptography Standard
+ (PKCS) #11.
+
+
A PKCS #11 module (sometimes
+ called a security module) controls one or more security devices in much the
+ same way that a software driver controls an external device such as a printer
+ or modem. If you are installing a smart card, you must install the PKCS #11
+ module for the smart card on your computer as well as connecting the smart
+ card reader.
+
+
By default, the Device Manager controls two internal PKCS #11 modules that
+ manage three security devices:
Generic Crypto Services: A special security device
+ that performs all cryptographic operations required by the
+ &brandShortName; Internal PKCS #11 Module.
+
Software Security Device: Stores your certificates
+ and keys that aren't stored on external security devices,
+ including any CA certificates that you may have installed in addition
+ to those that come with the browser.
+
+
+
Builtin Roots Module: Controls a special security device
+ called the Builtin Object Token. This security device stores the default
+ CA certificates that come with
+ the browser.
The Device Manager allows you to perform operations on security devices. To
+ open the Device Manager, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Certificates panel, click Manage Security Devices.
+
+
+
The Device Manager lists each available PKCS #11 module in boldface, and the
+ security devices managed by each module below its name.
+
+
When you select a security device, information about it appears in the
+ middle of the Device Manager window, and some of the buttons on the right
+ side of the window become available. For example, if you select the Software
+ Security Device, you can perform these actions:
+
+
+
Click Login or Logout to log in or out of the Software Security Device.
+ If you are logging in, you will be asked to supply the master password for
+ the device. You must be logged into a security device before your browser
+ software can use it to provide cryptographic services.
+
Click Change Password to change the master password for the device.
+
+
+
You can perform these actions on most security devices. However, you cannot
+ perform them on the Builtin Object Token or Generic Crypto Services, which
+ are special devices that must normally be available at all times.
If you want to use a smart card or other external security device, you must
+ first install the module software on your computer and, if necessary, connect
+ any associated hardware. Follow the instructions that come with the
+ hardware.
+
+
After a new module is installed on your computer, follow these steps to load
+ it:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Certificates panel, click Manage Security Devices.
+
Click Load.
+
In the Load PKCS #11 Module dialog box, click the Browse button, locate
+ the module file, and click Open.
+
Fill in the Module Name field with the name of the module and click
+ OK.
+
+
+
The new module will then show up in the list of modules with the name you
+ assigned to it.
+
+
To unload a PKCS #11 module, select its name and click Unload.
Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS PUBS) 140-1 is a
+ US government standard for implementations of cryptographic
+ modules—that is, hardware or software that encrypts and decrypts data
+ or performs other cryptographic operations (such as creating or verifying
+ digital signatures). Many products sold to the US government must comply with
+ one or more of the FIPS standards.
+
+
To enable FIPS mode for the browser, you use the Device Manager:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Certificates. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Certificates panel, click Manage Devices.
+
Click the Enable FIPS button. When FIPS is enabled, the name NSS Internal
+ PKCS #11 Module changes to NSS Internal FIPS PKCS #11 Module and the Enable
+ FIPS button changes to Disable FIPS.
The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol allows your computer to exchange
+ information with other computers on the Internet in encrypted form—that
+ is, the information is scrambled while in transit so that no one else can
+ make sense of it. SSL is also used to identify computers on the Internet by
+ means of certificates.
+
+
The Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol is a new standard based on SSL.
+ By default, the browser supports both SSL and TLS. This approach works for
+ most people, because it guarantees that the browser will work with virtually
+ all other existing software on the Internet that supports any version of SSL
+ or TLS.
+
+
However, in some circumstances system administrators or other knowledgeable
+ persons may wish to adjust the SSL settings to fine-tune them for special
+ security needs or to account for bugs in some older software products.
+
+
You shouldn't adjust the SSL settings for your browser unless you know
+ what you're doing or have the assistance of someone else who does. If
+ you do need to adjust them for some reason, follow these steps:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, select SSL. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
As discussed above under Get Your
+ Own Certificate, a certificate is a form of identification, much like a
+ driver's license, that you can use to identify yourself over the
+ Internet and other networks. However, also like a driver's license, a
+ certificate may expire or become invalid for some other reason. Therefore,
+ your browser software needs to confirm the validity of any given certificate
+ in some way before trusting it for identification purposes.
+
+
This section describes how Certificate Manager validates certificates and
+ how to control that process. To understand the process, you should have some
+ familiarity with public-key
+ cryptography. If you are not familiar with the use of certificates, you
+ should check with your system administrator before attempting to change any
+ of your browser's certificate validation settings.
Whenever you use or view a certificate stored by Certificate Manager, it
+ takes several steps to verify the certificate. At a minimum, it confirms that
+ the CA's digital signature on the certificate was created by a CA whose
+ own certificate is (1) present in the Certificate Manager's list of
+ available CA certificates and (2) marked as trusted for issuing the kind of
+ certificate being verified.
+
+
If the CA certificate is not itself present, the
+ certificate chain for the CA
+ certificate must include a higher-level CA certificate that is present and
+ correctly trusted. Certificate Manager also confirms that the certificate
+ being verified is currently marked as trusted in the certificate store. If
+ any one of these checks fails, Certificate Manager marks the certificate as
+ unverified and won't recognize the identity it certifies.
+
+
A certificate can pass all these tests and still be compromised in some way;
+ for example, the certificate may be revoked because an unauthorized person
+ has gained access to the certificate's private key. A compromised
+ certificate can allow an unauthorized person (or website) to pretend to be
+ the certificate owner.
+
+
One way to combat this threat is for Certificate Manager to check a
+ certificate revocation list (CRL) as part of the verification process (see
+ Managing CRLs, below). Typically, you download a
+ CRL to your browser by clicking a link. If a CRL is present, Certificate
+ Manager checks any certificate issued by the same CA against the list as part
+ of the verification process.
+
+
The reliability of CRLs depends on the frequency with which they are both
+ updated by a server and checked by a client. You can configure your
+ Automatic
+ CRL Update Preferences so that a CRL will be updated automatically at
+ regular intervals with the version currently on the server.
+
+
Another way to combat the threat of compromised certificates is to use a
+ special server that supports the Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP).
+ Such a server can answer client queries about individual certificates (see
+ Configuring OCSP, below).
+
+
The server, called an OCSP responder, receives an updated CRL periodically
+ from the CA that issues the certificates to be verified. You can configure
+ Certificate Manager to submit a status request for a certificate to the OCSP
+ responder, and the OCSP responder confirms whether the certificate is
+ valid.
A certificate revocation list (CRL) is a list of revoked certificates. A
+ certificate authority (CA)
+ might revoke a certificate, for example, if it has been compromised in some
+ way—much the way a credit card company might revoke your credit card if
+ you report that it's been stolen.
+
+
This section describes how to import and manage CRLs.
The browser uses the CRLs it has available to check the validity of
+ certificates issued by the corresponding CAs. If a certificate is listed as
+ revoked, the browser won't accept it as evidence of identity.
+
+
A CA typically publishes an updated CRL at regular intervals. Every CRL
+ includes a date, specified in the Next Update field, by which the CA will
+ publish the next update of that CRL. In general, if the date in the Next
+ Update field is earlier than the current date, you should obtain the most
+ recent version of the CRL. To view CRL information and set up automatic CRL
+ updating, see Viewing and Managing
+ CRLs.
+
+
CAs are required to produce a new CRL by the Next Update date. However, the
+ absence of the most recent CRL does not by itself invalidate a certificate.
+ For this reason, if the most recent CRL is not available, a certificate may
+ be validated even though the most recent CRL shows it as expired. Automatic
+ CRL updating can help to avoid this situation.
+
+
Importing CRLs
+
+
You can import the latest CRL from a CA into your browser. To import a CRL,
+ follow these steps:
+
+
+
Go to the URL specified by the CA or by your system administrator and
+ click the link for the CRL that you want to import.
+
+
The Import Status dialog box appears.
+
+
Confirm that the CRL was imported successfully and that it's the one
+ you wanted. In most cases you should also click Yes, which enables
+ automatic updating of the CRL you just imported.
+
The next step depends on whether you click Yes or No in the Import Status
+ dialog box:
+
+
Yes: The Automatic CRL Update Preferences dialog box
+ appears. In this case, go on to step 4.
+
No: The Import Status dialog box closes. If you
+ change your mind and decide to enable automatic updates after all, see
+ Viewing and Managing
+ CRLs.
+
+
+
Select the option labeled Enable Automatic Update for this
+ CRL.
+
Decide how you want to schedule the automatic updates:
+
+
Update [__] days before Next Update date: Select
+ this option if you want to base the update frequency on the frequency
+ with which the CRL publisher publishes a new version of the CRL.
+
Update every [__] days: Select this option if you
+ want to specify an update interval unrelated to the CRL's Next
+ Update date.
+
+
+
Click OK to confirm your choices.
+
+
+
Viewing and Managing CRLs
+
+
You can view and manage CRLs available to the browser through the
+ browser's Validation preferences:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Validation. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Manage CRLs in the Validation panel to see a list of the CRLs
+ available to Certificate Manager.
+
+
+
To delete or update a CRL, select it and click the appropriate button.
+
+
To set up automatic updates for a CRL, select the CRL and click Settings.
+ The Automatic CRL Update Preferences dialog box appears:
+
+
+
Select the option labeled Enable Automatic Update for this
+ CRL.
+
Decide how you want to schedule the automatic updates:
+
+
Update [__] days before Next Update date: Select
+ this option if you want to base the update frequency on the frequency
+ with which the CRL publisher publishes a new version of the CRL.
+
Update every [__] days: Select this option if you
+ want to specify an update interval unrelated to the CRL's Next
+ Update date.

+
+
Using the Password Manager
+
+
Many sites require you to type a user name and password before you can
+ enter the site. For instance, personalized pages and sites containing your
+ financial information usually require you to log in.
+
+
The user name and password you use at a particular site can be read by the
+ site's administrator. Potentially, that person could then attempt to log
+ into other sites where you may have used the same user name and password. If
+ this concerns you, you may wish to use a different password at every site
+ with which you register.
+
+
Password Manager can help you remember some or all of your names and
+ passwords by storing them on your computer's hard disk, and entering
+ them for you automatically when you visit such sites.
Using
+ Password Manager to Remember User Names and Passwords
+
+
When Password Manager is active (as it is by default), it gives you an
+ opportunity to save user names and passwords on your hard drive that you
+ enter while using the Internet.
+
+
For example, after you log onto a site from a page that requests a user
+ name and password, a dialog box appears asking, Do you want Password
+ Manager to remember this logon? When you see this dialog box, you can
+ click one of the following buttons:
+
+
+
Yes: The next time you return to the site you'll
+ see that your user name and password are already filled in. All you have to
+ do is click the Login button (or equivalent) to send them to the
+ server.
+
Never for this site: Password Manager will not ask in
+ the future if you want to save your user name and password for that
+ site.
+
No: Password Manager won't remember the user name
+ and password, but will ask again the next time you visit the site.
+
+
+
Similarly, when you log onto an email account or an FTP site, or perform any
+ other action that requires the browser itself to display a special dialog box
+ for your login information, you can select this option in the dialog box:
+
+
+
Use Password Manager to remember these values
+
+
+
The next time you check your email or perform other tasks that require a
+ password only, the password will be submitted directly without any further
+ action on your part. For tasks that require you to enter both a user name and
+ password, you need to click a Login button or equivalent after Password
+ Manager fills in the information.
+
+
Password Manager saves your user names and passwords on your own computer in
+ a file that's difficult, but not impossible, for an intruder to read.
+ See Encrypting Stored
+ Sensitive Information for information on protecting your stored user
+ names and passwords with encryption technology.
+
+
If the Password Manager dialog box described above does not appear when you
+ click Submit after typing your user name and password, Password Manager may
+ be turned off or the site may disallow its use.
The next time you visit the site, Password Manager automatically fills
+ in your user name and password on the site's log in page. You can
+ then click the Login button, or equivalent, to send the information to
+ the server.
+
+
You use Password Manager to remember your user name and password for an
+ email account, an FTP site, or in any other situation where you type login
+ information in a dialog box that displays a checkbox labeled Use
+ Password Manager to remember these values.
+
+
In most cases, the next time you attempt to access that server, Password
+ Manager automatically fills in your user name and password in the same
+ dialog box. You can then click OK to send the information to the
+ server.
+
+
In some cases, such as when you open your email account,
+ &brandShortName; needs to send only the password to the server, and does
+ so immediately without displaying the dialog box or requiring any further
+ action on your part.
To see the user names and passwords you have stored and to display a list of
+ sites from which logon information never is saved:
+
+
+
Open the Tools menu, choose Password Manager, and then choose Manage
+ Stored Passwords from the submenu. You see the Password Manager window with
+ the Passwords Saved tab opened.
+
+
To see your saved passwords, click Show Passwords and confirm your
+ choice.
+
To hide your passwords, click Hide Passwords.
+
To remove an entry from the list, click it and then click Remove. The
+ next time you visit the site, you will need to enter your user name
+ and password again, since Password Manager will no longer have the
+ information.
+
+ Click the Passwords Never Saved tab to see a list of the sites for which
+ you instructed Password Manager never to store user names and passwords. To
+ remove a site from this list, click it and then click Remove. The next
+ time you log into the site, you can use the stored user name and
+ password (if available) or indicate that you want Password Manager to save
+ the information for that site.
If you use Password Manager to save passwords, then this sensitive
+ information is stored on your computer in a file that's difficult, but
+ not impossible, for an intruder to read.
+
+
For example, if your computer is in an area where unauthorized people have
+ access to it, it's possible for a determined person to read the file
+ containing your sensitive information.
+
+
For a greater degree of security, you may want to protect the file with
+ encryption. Encryption makes it much harder for an unauthorized person to
+ view your stored sensitive information.
+
+
Your decision about whether to use encryption for stored sensitive data is a
+ tradeoff between improved security and convenience.
+
+
If you use encryption, you will need to enter a master password
+ periodically, which can be inconvenient. If you don't, it may be easier
+ for a stranger who has access to your computer to steal your passwords.
If you choose to encrypt your stored sensitive information, you'll need
+ a master password. With encryption selected, you'll be asked for your
+ master password at least once during a &brandShortName; session in which you
+ access any of your stored sensitive information.
+
+
If you choose encryption, but don't already have a master password,
+ you'll be prompted to create one the first time you try to save or
+ retrieve your sensitive information.
+
+
If your master password has not previously been set, you can set at this
+ time:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Change Master Password section, click Change Password to open the
+ Change Master Password dialog box.
+
Enter your desired master password, and retype it to confirm the
+ spelling.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Make sure your new password is difficult to guess. For some suggestions on
+ how to improve password security, see
+ Choosing a Good
+ Password.
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
In the Change Master Password section, click Change Password to open the
+ Change Master Password dialog box.
+
Enter your current master password.
+
Enter your new master password, and retype it to confirm the
+ spelling.
+
Click OK.
+
+
+
Make sure your new password is difficult to guess. For some guidelines, see
+ Choosing a Good
+ Password.
Normally, you are asked for your master password once during each
+ &brandShortName; session during which you access any of your stored sensitive
+ information.
+
+
It's also possible to require that your master password be requested
+ each time it is needed, or after a certain amount of time has passed. For
+ details, see Master
+ Password Timeout.
+
+
You can log out of your master password so that it must be entered again
+ before any sensitive information can be stored or retrieved. This is useful
+ if you are going to leave your computer unattended for a period of time.
If you forget your master password and you have chosen to encrypt sensitive
+ data (see Encrypting
+ Stored Sensitive Information), you won't be able to access any of
+ the stored password it protects (assuming you have turned on encryption).
+ Your master password is your most important password. Make sure you remember
+ it or record it in a safe place.
+
+
As a last resort, it's possible to reset your master password if you
+ are sure you can't remember it. However, resetting your master password
+ permanently erases all the web and email passwords, saved on your behalf by
+ Password Manager. You will also lose all your personal certificates
+ associated with the
+ Software Security
+ Device.
If you are sure you can't remember or retrieve your master password,
+ follow these instructions to reset it:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Master Passwords. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
Click Reset Master Password.
+
In the Reset Master Password dialog box, click Reset.
If you wish, you can choose not to download any images when you browse the
+ web. This greatly restricts what you can view online, but may be helpful if
+ you have a slow connection and wish to shorten the time it takes web pages to
+ load.
+
+
You can also control how frequently animated images repeat their animation,
+ or turn off animation completely.
+
+
The next section describes how to control these image settings. The default
+ settings allow all images to be accepted and allow them to repeat their
+ animation.
+
+
Privacy & Security Preferences - Images
+
+
This section describes how to set preferences for images. To view the
+ preference settings for images:
+
+
+
Open the &brandShortName;
+ Edit menu and choose Preferences.
+
Under the Privacy & Security category, click Images. (If no
+ subcategories are visible, double-click Privacy & Security to expand
+ the list.)
+
+
+
Image Acceptance Policy
+
+
Image Acceptance preferences allow you to control whether or under what
+ conditions the &brandShortName; browser should display images:
+
+
+
Do not load any images: Select this option if you do not
+ want the &brandShortName; browser to display images.
+
Accept images that come from the originating server
+ only: Select this option if you do not want to load images from
+ third-party sites.
+
Accept all images: Select this option if you want to
+ display all images. (This option is selected by default.)
+
+
+
Animated images should loop
+
+
These settings control how many times animated images repeat their
+ animation:
+
+
+
As many times as the image specifies: Select this if you
+ want image animation to repeat as many times as specified within each
+ image. (This option is selected by default.)
+
Once: Select this if you want image animation to occur
+ once, overriding the number of times specified within each image.
+
Never: Select this if you do not want image
+ animation.
To display help information in this window, click a topic in the
+Contents sidebar. Click the plus
+icontriangle next to a topic to
+see its subtopics.
+
To search for a help topic, type a word or phrase in the
+Search bar to see related topics. Click on a topic to read
+about it. If your search doesn't return any topics, try typing
+fewer words or a different combination of words. The results will
+be displayed in the Search sidebar as you type. To display
+the contents in the sidebar again, click the close button on the
+Search sidebar, clear the Search bar, or press
+Esc.
+
To see information related to the Help topic you are reading,
+click links in the Help window just as you would in a regular web
+page. You can also move back and forth between pages you've already
+seen using the Back and Forward buttons.
+
Search Tips
+
If you don't find what you want, here are a few helpful
+tips:
+
+
Be sure that you are searching for something that relates to
+&brandShortName;; this is not a general Internet search.
+
Try to broaden your search - don't be too specific; terms could
+be worded differently than your search.
+
Avoid being too broad with your search. For example, a common
+word like "page" will likely return more topics than you want.
