CHAPTER
Download the past: Sets the number
of days’ worth of email to be retrieved
for each automatic or manual sync.
Message format: Sets the format for
sending and receiving messages. If you
select HTML, messages sent to you as
HTML are received with their formatting
intact. If you select Plain Text, all
messages are received as plain text.
Download size limit: Sets the size of
an incoming message that is
automatically downloaded. For any
message that exceeds this size, you
must manually download the rest of the
message. Selecting a higher limit
means that more of your messages are
fully downloaded, but message retrieval
might take longer. You can also choose
to download message headers only,
regardless of size.
Include file attachments: Sets
whether to download attached files with
a message.
Only if smaller than: Sets the
maximum size of attachments that can
be downloaded. If an attachment
exceeds the maximum size, you must
download it manually (see Opening
attachments).
5 (Optional) Select Advanced, and then
select any of the following options:
Encrypt all outgoing e-mail
messages: Sets whether outgoing
messages should be encrypted for extra
security. Encryption helps prevent
eavesdropping, which occurs when a
hacker intercepts and reads your email
messages.
Sign all outgoing e-mail messages:
Sets whether messages should be
given a digital signature as an extra
security measure. A signature helps
prevent impersonation and tampering.
