The Compose Settings dialog
The Compose Settings dialog provides several overrides for the compose
window. This dialog initially shows the default values for the compose window.
Values can be changed, or "un-set". If setting is removed, it will be
re-established by the normal compose window processing. The following settings
can be modified.
-
Specify the Sent Folder
-
The Sent Folder specifies where a copy of the outgoing message should
be saved. When the message is successfully sent, a copy of the
message will be moved from the Outbox to the location specified by
the Sent Folder.
- Do Not File. If the Trash folder is active, the outgoing
message will be copied to trash, otherwise the message is discarded.
- File to Current Month-Year Folder. A folder for the
current month and year will be created to store a copy of the outgoing
message.
- File Here. The outgoing message will be saved into the
folder specified in the folder field. This will default to
the Sent Folder. The Select button can be used to
select a different folder.
If no checkbox is checked, the Compose window will resolve a default
Sent Folder from the Address Book entry for the first address, or from the
default persona.
-
Specify the persona
-
The Persona is a Choice box showing a list of the available persona.
Specify a persona, or choose "no persona" by selecting the first item in the
list - a blank line. If no persona is chosen, the compose window will re-select
a default persona based upon the addressing.
-
Specify the CharacterSet
-
The CharacterSet is used to encode any High ASCII characters in the
composed message. The Character Set will be specified in a Mime content
header in the outgoing message. If no High ASCII characters are
used, a MIME will not typically be included in the message. It is not
possible to choose "no Character Set".
If this dialog is closed with the OK button, the changes will be
applied to the compose window. If Cancel is used or the window is
closed any other way, the changes will not be applied.
