7-6 Sending e-mail
CC: own e-mail address — Yes / No (default).
If the setting is Yes, the mail will be automat-
ically sent to the address defined in Own
e-mail address.
MIME character encoding — On (default) / Off.
MIME encoding allows another MIME compli-
ant e-mail system to read the character set
used in your communicator. Only when text
containing special characters (e.g. á, ä, ß) is
sent to a non MIME compliant e-mail reader
should the MIME encoding be turned off.
When MIME encoding is off the special char-
acters are automatically converted to ASCII
characters: ‘ä’ becomes ‘a’ and so on.
Remote mailbox settings — Changing this set-
ting opens a new set of options, described below.
Your remote mailbox service provider will supply
you with the required information.
Remote mailbox user name and Remote mail-
box password — These may be required to con-
nect to the server and to open your mailbox.
The password characters appear as asterisks
(*) on the display. A user name and password
stored here will be automatically offered to
the server. You will only have to enter your
user name and password if you have stored
them incorrectly (in this case, you will be
prompted when you connect to the remote
mailbox).
Pressing Cancel, or entering your user name
and password incorrectly three times will ter-
minate the connection to the remote mail-
box. For information on how to change the
Remote mailbox password, contact your Re-
mote mailbox service provider.
Receiving host — The IP address or host name
of the computer that receives your Internet
mail.
Remote mailbox folder — INBOX is the de-
fault folder name for your incoming e-mail.
Do not change this name without consulting
with your remote mailbox service provider.
This option is only available when the remote
mailbox protocol is IMAP4.
Remote mailbox protocol — IMAP4 (default) /
POP3. Your remote mailbox must support one
of these protocols in order to access your re-
mote mail. Choose the e-mail protocol your
mailbox service provider recommends.
Retrieve headers – All (default) / Recent. Deter-
mines whether all e-mail headers or just the
headers for e-mail received since the last con-
nection will be retrieved. It is possible to have
old or unread e-mail (that you have chosen not
to download or delete) in the remote mailbox.
Retrieve attachments – Yes (default) / No.
Determines whether possible e-mail attach-
ments are downloaded or not. Text attach-
ments are always downloaded. This option is
only available if the remote mailbox protocol
is IMAP4.
Delete retrieved — Yes / No (default). Deter-
mines whether downloaded e-mail will be
automatically deleted from the remote mail-
box. All downloaded e-mail goes to the re-
mote mailbox as well as the Received mail
folder.
