Command Line Options
-a account
Use this command line option to have Polarbar start up with the named account, instead of starting up with the default account (which is the account that was in use the last time that Polarbar was successfully shut down).
-d directory
Use this parameter to have Polarbar use a mailer directory other than the default one, which is a subdirectory named "Mailer" that is located under the current directory when you start Polarbar. If there is no MailData subdirectory in the mailer directory, Polarbar will create a new MailData directory. All account information is stored in subdirectories under the MailData directory. If you want to keep Polarbar's program and data files separate (or support multiple users using a shared program directory), then you must use this parameter to tell Polarbar where to find the mailer directory (for each user).
-debugshortcuts
This parameter tells Polarbar to display detailed debug messages when processing your custom keystrokes file, which should make it easier for you to discover possible reasons why you might be having problems with getting them to work correctly.
-getmail
Use this command line option to have Polarbar start up, retrieve mail, and exit.
-launch launch file
Use this command line option to have Polarbar use the named launch file, instead of using the default "launch.dat" file (which is located in the selected account directory). Unless an absolute file path is specified, the file is treated as being relative to the selected account directory.
-longfolderlist
Use this command line option to override the system setting and change it to the long folder list setting.
-mailto mailto
Use this command line option to have Polarbar start up with just a compose window with the addressing fields set according to the mailto parameter.
-nobubblehelp
Use this command line option to have Polarbar suppress bubble help messages.
-nologo
Use this command line option to have Polarbar suppress the logo splash screen at startup.
-noredirect
Use this command line option to have Polarbar not redirect the Java console log.
-nostriphtml
Use this command line option to have Polarbar not strip HTML code from text/html messages when using the text browser or when replying.
-separate
This command line option tells this instance of Polarbar to go ahead and run anyway, as a separate task, even if another instance of Polarbar is already running and is registered as the Polarbar mailto handler.
-shortfolderlist
Use this command line option to override the system setting and change it to the short folder list setting.
-syssettings system settings file
Use this command line option to have Polarbar use the named system settings file, instead of using the default system settings file (which is "Mailer/jstreet.ini"). Unless an absolute file path is specified, the file is treated as being relative to the Polarbar directory.
-verbose
Use this command line option to have Polarbar persist the Java console log to the "Mailer/DEBUG.OUT" file.
