This screen lists all configured mail accounts. After starting, <span class="application">Cone</span> automatically opens the first configured mail account, prompting for a password if necessary. <span class="application">Cone</span> is capable of handling multiple mail accounts, and any additional configured mail accounts are initially closed. To open one of the other mail account, highlight it with the cursor and press <span class="keycap"><strong>ENTER</strong></span>.</p> <p>When a mail account is opened, <span class="application">Cone</span> lists the default set of folders in the mail account. Folders that contain other subfolders, instead of messages, are prefixed by a “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">+</code></span>”, or a “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">→</code></span>” (depending on the display). Certain mail servers may have folders that contain both messages and subfolders. Those so-called “<span class="quote">hybrid</span>” folders are prefixed by a “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">*</code></span>”, or a “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">•</code></span>” (depending on the display).</p> <p>Move the cursor to highlight a folder and press <span class="keycap"><strong>ENTER</strong></span> to display its contents (either an index of messages in the folder; or a list of the folder's subfolders). Use <span class="keycap"><strong>+</strong></span> to display subfolders of a hybrid folder, use <span class="keycap"><strong>ENTER</strong></span> to display the index of messages in a hybrid folder.</p> <p>Move the cursor to highlight a folder with displayed subfolders and press <span class="keycap"><strong>-</strong></span> to remove its subfolders from display.</p> <p>Some mail accounts will display the number of messages in each folder, automatically. Sometimes the number of messages in a mail folder cannot be quickly determined, so <span class="application">Cone</span> will not bother to show the folder's size. Message counts are automatically shown for:</p> <div class="itemizedlist"> <ul type="disc"> <li> <p>Mail stored in local maildir folders.</p> </li> <li> <p>Mail stored on most remote POP3 and IMAP servers.</p> </li> </ul> </div> <p>Message counts are not automatically shown for:</p> <div class="itemizedlist"> <ul type="disc"> <li> <p>Mail stored in local mailbox files.</p> </li> <li> <p>Mail stored on some IMAP servers.</p> </li> </ul> </div> <p>Sometimes <span class="application">Cone</span> cannot correctly determine whether the IMAP server provides message counts quickly. Use the “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">/slowstatus</code></span>” or the “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">/faststatus</code></span>” flag when creating the new mail account to specify whether <span class="application">Cone</span> should automatically show message counts for displayed folders.</p> <p>When <span class="application">Cone</span> runs for the very first time, <span class="application">Cone</span> creates a mail account that contains local mail folders. Use the main menu screen to add additional mail accounts. Here's an example of the “<span class="quote">Folder Listing</span>” screen:</p> <div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <div class="titlepage"> <div> <div> <h4 class="title"><a id="id513430" shape="rect" name="id513430"> </a>Folder Listing Screen</h4> </div> </div> </div> <hr /><pre class="programlisting" xml:space="preserve"> <B> FOLDERS CONE </B> Main Account: Courier-IMAP server New Mail (5 messages) + Lists Courier-Users (1 messages) JunkFax-L System-Testers Release-Notice Sqwebmail + Folders account3@example.com: POP3 - Courier Mail Server Folder: 40 messages, 39 unread account4@example.com: <B> LIST completed </B> A Add ^D Move down M Main Menu U Use special W Write Msg D Delete E Edit Acct R Rename ^U Move up </pre><hr /> <p>The bottom two lines of the screen lists the available “<span class="quote">hotkeys</span>”, and their corresponding actions. “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">^</code></span>” indicates that <span class="keycap"><strong>CTRL</strong></span> should be held down while pressing the following key. On this screen, for example, press and hold <span class="keycap"><strong>CTRL</strong></span>, then press and release <span class="keycap"><strong>D</strong></span> to invoke the “<span class="quote">Move down</span>” action (described below).</p> <p>Screens with more “<span class="quote">hotkeys</span>” that can fit on the screen will use <span class="keycap"><strong>CTRL</strong></span>-<span class="keycap"><strong>O</strong></span> to cycle through the complete “<span class="quote">hotkey</span>” listing.</p> <p>As shown in the illustration above, <span class="application">Cone</span> lists the hierarchy of available folders in a natural, tree-like format.

This process may take a long time. On low bandwidth connections it may take 15-20 minutes, depending on the number of newsgroups carried by the server.</p> <p>Sometimes servers may not correctly report newly-created newsgroups, so using this option will be necessary in order to add the new groups to "All newsgroups". Additionally, this is the only way to remove newsgroups no longer carried by the server from "All newsgroups".</p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">Subscribed newsgroups</span></dt> <dd> <p>This entry contains a list of subscribed newsgroups. To subscribe to a newsgroup, find it under "All newsgroups" and open it. This action automatically subscribes the newsgroup. To unsubscribe a newsgroup, highlight it here, then press <span class="keycap"><strong>D</strong></span> (Delete).</p> <p>Another way to subscribe to a newsgroup is described in the following section.</p> </dd> </dl> </div> </div> <div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <div class="titlepage"> <div> <div> <h5 class="title"><a id="id513750" shape="rect" name="id513750"> </a>Adding top-level folders</h5> </div> </div> </div> <p>There are two ways to manually insert additional folders into the top-level list. The easiest way is to highlight an existing folder, then press <span class="keycap"><strong>U</strong></span>, then <span class="keycap"><strong>T</strong></span>. This folder is now included in the top-level folder list. It is important to note that the actual mail folder is not renamed, or otherwise moved in the mail account, it is only shown as part of the default top-level folder hierarchy. The top-level entry for this folder can be thought of as a “<span class="quote">shortcut</span>” to the folder. If the original folder is located deep in the mail account's folder hierarchy, it is no longer necessary to dive deep into the hierarchy each time the mail account is opened, in order to reach the folder; it's going to be right there, in the top-level folder hierarchy.</p> <p>Top-level folders do no appear in their original location in the mail account's folder hierarchy. When the folder is first added to the top-level folder list it momentarily appears twice: in its actual location, on the screen, and at the topmost level. After its original hierarchy folder level is closed, it will no longer appear. As noted above, the folder is still there, it just appears as a shortcut at the topmost level. When the shortcut is removed (see the next section), the folder reappears in its place.</p> <p>The second way to create top-level folder shortcuts is to highlight the name of the mail account with the cursor, then press <span class="keycap"><strong>A</strong></span> (Add). <span class="application">Cone</span> shows the following prompt: “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">Add folder/directory in</code> <em class="replaceable"><code>account</code></em></span>”. Enter the complete folder name, as used by the mail account's server. This method for adding top-level folders requires some knowledge of the folder's location on the mail server. However it can be used to add folders that are outside of the currently-configured folder hierarchies (which is sometimes the case with IMAP servers), as follows:</p> <div class="variablelist"> <dl> <dt><span class="term">IMAP folders</span></dt> <dd> <p>The folder name is used as is. This means that folders whose names contain characters that are not in the application's character set, or do not follow the IMAP modified <code class="literal">UTF-7</code> folder name encoding, cannot be entered.</p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">SMAP folders</span></dt> <dd> <p>Specify the complete folder path name. Use the forward slash character, “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">/</code></span>” to separate names of individual folders in the <code class="literal">SMAP</code> folder hierarchy. Unicode/ISO-10646 characters that cannot be represented in the application's character set may be specified as “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">%</code><em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em><code class="literal">;</code></span>”, where <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em> is a decimal Unicode value. Use “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">\/</code></span>” to specify a forward slash character in the folder name, “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">\\</code></span>” to specify a backslash character, and “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">\%</code></span>” to specify the “<span class="quote">%</span>” character.</p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">Usenet (NetNews) newsgroups</span></dt> <dd> <p>Usenet accounts already have a dedicated link to subscribed newsgroups. For Usenet accounts, this process is used to subscribe to a new newsgroup which does not appear under "All newsgroups".</p> <p>It is not possible for NetNews (Usenet) readers to maintain a correct, accurate list of available newsgroups. Usenet readers must download a list of available newsgroups, which can be quite large and require a significant time to download. It's not feasible to do this every time. As such, Usenet readers keep a saved copy of the download newsgroup list. Upon request, the newsgroup list may be downloaded again, and the locally saved list is brought up to date. This is what "Refresh newsgroup list" does.</p> <p>"Check for new newsgroups" is a partial solution that's supported by most Usenet news servers, and can usually do the trick and download recently added newsgroups. There's no way to remove newsgroups no longer carried by the server, except by using "Refresh newsgroup list", but at least "Check for new newsgroups" will do the trick and include new groups under "All newsgroups", so that they can be subscribed to.</p> <p>However, sometimes "Refresh newsgroup list" might not work with some oddball news server, or the news server can accidentally lose its wits and "forget" which new newsgroups were added, recently. In any case, use the process for creating a top-level folder in order to manually subscribe to a newsgroup. Type in the newsgroup's name, carefully checking for the correct spelling. After creating a link, open it and the newsgroup will now be subscribed to, and it will now appear under "Subscribed newsgroups".</p> </dd> <dt><span class="term">Local mbox-type mail folders and maildirs</span></dt> <dd> <p>Specify the complete folder path name, relative to main folder directory. For example, if this mail account is configured as a local mbox mail account in <code class="filename">$HOME/Mail</code>, use “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">foo/bar</code></span>” to specify <code class="filename">$HOME/Mail/foo/bar</code>. Use the forward slash character, “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">/</code></span>” to separate names of individual folders in the local mail folder hierarchy. The actual folder names use the modified <code class="literal">UTF-7</code> character set, and the entered folder name is automatically converted from the application's character set to modified <code class="literal">UTF-7</code>. This is needed for compatibility reasons (making it possible to access local mail folders both directly, and using IMAP or SMAP).</p> <p>Unicode/ISO-10646 characters that cannot be represented in the application's character set may be specified as “<span class="quote"><code class="literal">%</code><em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em><code class="literal">;</code></span>”, where <em class="replaceable"><code>n</code></em> is a decimal Unicode value.

Highlighting a folder, and pressing <span class="keycap"><strong>U</strong></span> (Use special) brings up the following prompt, which designates the highlighted folder as follows:</p> <div class="variablelist"> <dl> <dt><span class="term"><span class="keycap"><strong>A</strong></span> - address book</span></dt> <dd> <p><span class="application">Cone</span> can save its simple E-mail address book on a remote server, in addition to its local address book. POP3 mail folders cannot be used as remote address books, only IMAP or SMAP folders can do that. To create a new address book on a remote server, create a new IMAP or SMAP folder, highlight it with a cursor, and use this option.</p> <p>This option adds a new remote address book. <span class="application">Cone</span> can handle more than one address book, and E-mail addresses are looked up in each configured address book, sequentially, until the address is found.</p> <p><span class="application">Cone</span> can also search LDAP server-based address books. LDAP address books are added by choosing the “<span class="quote">Address Book</span>” option from the Main Menu.</p> </dd> <dt><span class="term"><span class="keycap"><strong>D</strong></span> - draft</span></dt> <dd> <p>The draft folder is where new, unfinished messages, that have not been sent yet, are saved.

Only IMAP, SMAP, or a local mail folder may be used as a special folder.</p> <p>IMPORTANT: do not delete a mail folder, or a mail account, that contains a special folder. Remove an existing address book using the “<span class="quote">Address Book</span>” selection from <span class="application">Cone</span>'s main menu. Remove an existing draft folder first by selecting a draft folder on a different mail account. Remove an existing sent-mail folder by choosing the “<span class="quote">Setup</span>” selection from <span class="application">Cone</span>'s main menu. Then, the folder or the account containing a special folder can be deleted.</p> <p>IMPORTANT: Do not open an address book folder, or a remote configuration folder manually, unless the remote IMAP/SMAP server allows concurrent access to the same folder. <span class="application">Cone</span> opens and closes these folders automatically, when needed. If the remote IMAP/SMAP server does not allow the same folder opened more than once, opening the folder manually will result in unpredictable errors.</p> </div> <div class="section" lang="en" xml:lang="en"> <div class="titlepage"> <div> <div> <h5 class="title"><a id="id515097" shape="rect" name="id515097"> </a>Reconfiguring an account</h5> </div> </div> </div> <p>Use the cursor to highlight the name of a mail account, and press <span class="keycap"><strong>E</strong></span> to edit the mail account's configuration. This is primarily useful with remote mail accounts. There isn't much to do with local mail accounts.

This is the screen where a new message can be typed, and sent. <span class="application">Cone</span> checks for any unfinished messages in the Draft folder, before opening this screen. If the Draft folder contains any messages, <span class="application">Cone</span> offers an option to resume writing an unfinished message, instead of starting a new message. <span class="application">Cone</span> automatically saves a backup copy of the current message being edited, at regular intervals, so that a backup copy can be recovered in the event that <span class="application">Cone</span> is interrupted, or terminated, in a middle of editing a new message. If a backup copy exists, <span class="application">Cone</span> announces the existence of an interrupted message, and prompts to resume writing the interrupted message. An interrupted message must be opened and either: sent, explicitly cancelled, or saved in the Draft folder; before another message can be written.</p> </dd> </dl> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="navfooter"> <hr/> <table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"> <tr> <td width="40%" align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> <a accesskey="p" href="cone00index.html" shape="rect">Prev</a> </td> <td width="20%" align="center" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> <a accesskey="u" href="cone00index.html" shape="rect">Up</a></td> <td width="40%" align="right" rowspan="1" colspan="1">  <a accesskey="n" href="cone02folderindex.html" shape="rect">Next</a></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="40%" align="left" valign="top" rowspan="1" colspan="1"><span class="application">Cone</span> mail client </td> <td width="20%" align="center" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> <a accesskey="h" href="index.html" shape="rect">Home</a> | <a accesskey="t" href="bk01-toc.html" shape="rect">ToC</a></td> <td width="40%" align="right" valign="top" rowspan="1" colspan="1"> Folder Index</td> </tr> </table> </div> </body> </html>
