+<toc>
+
+<sect>What is Sylpheed?
+
+<sect1>Introduction to Sylpheed.
+<p>
+Sylpheed is a fast e-mail and news client. It will run on just about any Linux or Unix compliant system.
+<p>
+The power of Sylpheed is that it is
+<itemize>
+<item>light on resources
+<item>very fast
+<item>intuitive for most people
+<item>easy to work with
+<item>loaded with features
+<item>graceful and sophisticated in its interface
+</itemize>
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Interface
+<p>
+The appearance and interface are similar to some popular e-mail clients for Windows, such as Outlook Express, Becky!, and Datula. The interface is also designed to emulate the mailers on Emacsen, and almost all commands are accessible with the keyboard.
+<p>
+The messages are managed by MH format, and you'll be able to use it together with another mailer based on MH format (like Mew). You can also utilize fetchmail or/and procmail, and external programs for receiving (like inc or imget).
+i
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Main features
+<p>
+Currently implemented features are:
+<itemize>
+<item>Unlimited multiple account handling
+<item>Thread display
+<item>Filtering
+<item>MIME (attachments)
+<item>built-in image view
+<item>X-Face support
+<item>External editor support
+<item>Message queueing
+<item>Draft message function
+<item>Line-wrapping
+<item>Clickable URI
+<item>XML-based addressbook
+<item>Newly arrived and unread message management
+<item>Multiple MH folder support
+<item>Mew/Wanderlust compatible key bindings
+<item>News reader function
+<item>Printing
+<item>UIDL support
+<item>APOP authentication
+<item>SMTP AUTH support
+<item>IPv6 support
+<item>Autoconf, automake support
+<item>Support of i18n of messages by gettext
+<item>Supports many locales, including UTF-8 (Unicode), when using libjconv
+<!-- added 2001/07/19 -->
+<item>IMAP4 compliant
+</itemize>
+This list is not complete, but this will at least show you the most common features in Sylpheed.

+<sect1>Setup for reading your Unix mailbox in a hurry
+<p>
+In the configuration menu, select "Create new account"
+<p>
+In the "Basic" tab, enter the relevant data. You name the account, enter your name and e-mail address, etc. You can select this account to be the default account ("Usually used"). To select your local unix mailbox, in the Protocol box you select "None (local)".
+<p>
+When you select this option, the "Server for receiving" is greyed out, since this is not relevant. You can enter the server to send (SMTP) in this tab also.
+<p>
+The "Receive" tab is not used in this setup, since you are not polling a server, your mail is delivered to you.
+<p>
+In the "Send" tab you can set up some more settings.
+<p>
+In the "Compose" tab you can define your signature file.
+<p>
+In the "Advanced" tab you can edit the portnumbers for the servers you will be using. This normally will need no change.

+<p>
+in the main menu choose "Configure" -> "Packages" -> "mail", then "sylpheed" then, back to the "Packages" list, choose "Install"
+<p>
+Using the ports
+<p>
+Get the sylpheed port on :
+<p>
+ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-4.3-release/mail
+<p>
+then, as root: pkg-add sylpheed-0.x.x.tgz
+<p>
+using the ports with compiling:
+<p>
+first, update your port, fetch it on http://www.freebsd.org/ports/mail.html
+<p>
+cd /usr/ports/mail/sylpheed
+<p>
+make
+<p>
+If it succeeds, type "make install"
+<p>
+In case it fails, fetch the required package if necessary
+(on the same page), put the package file in /usr/ports/distfiles/
+then :
+<itemize>
+<item>cd /usr/ports/mail/sylpheed
+<item>make
+<item>make install
+</itemize>
+<p>
+Need a more up-to-date version ?
+<p>

+<sect1>Starting Sylpheed
+<p>
+Starting Sylpheed can be done by typing "sylpheed" on a prompt in a terminal and pressing Enter. You can also add Sylpheed to a menu in KDE or Gnome, or create a shortcut to it on the desktop, if your window manager allows that.
+<p>
+When you first start Sylpheed, the program will ask you where you want to store the mails that you downloaded. You can accept the default ($HOME/Mail) or set up your own mail folder.
+<p>
+Sylpheed will then load with it's default settings. The way to change these are written about further on in this manual.
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Quitting Sylpheed
+<p>
+Ending Sylpheed can be done in several ways:
+<itemize>
+<item>Select "quit" from the File menu
+<item>Press Ctrl-Q
+<item>Click the "program close" button in the titlebar.

+<sect>Going through the parts of Sylpheed
+
+<sect1>The menu options of Sylpheed.
+<p>
+The menu in Sylpheed is the primary entry to all the things you can do with Sylpheed. The menu structure gives you following options:
+<sect2>File menu
+<p>
+<itemize>
+<item>Add mailbox: this option lets you add a new MH mail-directory. It will generate IN, OUT, QUEUE, DRAFT and TRASH mailfolders inside the new mailbox.
+<item>Update folder tree: rescans the entire tree of existing mailboxes to reflect the correct state (usually won't be necessary).
+<item>Folder: lets you add, rename or delete a mailfolder.
+<item>Import mbox file...: lets you import an mbox file (like created by Pine) into an MH mailbox.
+<item>Export to mbox file: lets you export an MH mailbox to an mbox file.
+<item>Empty trash: obviously, this will empty the trash folder.
+<item>Save as: lets you save the selected e-mail to a plain textfile on disk.
+<item>Print: lets you print the selected e-mail to a printer.
+<item>Close: ends Sylpheed.
+<item>Exit: also ends Sylpheed.
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Edit menu<p>
+<itemize>
+<item>copy: lets you copy the selected text to a buffer, from where you can paste it into a different place. Shortcut: Ctrl-C
+<item>select all: selects all the text in the current window. Shortcut: Ctrl-A
+<item>search: searches the current window for text you enter. Shortcut: Ctrl-S
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>View menu<p>
+The view menu allows you to change the way that Sylpheed appears. You can set different windows separately (folder view, messages etc.), enable or disable the statusbar and so on.<p>
+<itemize>
+<item>Folder tree: not implemented yet
+<item>Message view: not implemented yet
+<item>Toolbar: sets how you want to see the toolbar. Icons and text, or one of these.
+<item>Status bar: show it or hide it.
+<item>Separate folder tree: selects between having the folder tree attached to the main window, or floating separately.
+<item>Separate message view: selects between having the selected message in the summary pane attached to the main window, or floating separately.
+<item>Code set: allows you to select what codeset you want to use for your e-mails.
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Message menu<p>
+Here you find the following options:
+<itemize>
+<item>Receive new mail: this will collect all new mail for your default mail-identity.
+<item>Receive from all accounts: Sylpheed will poll all defined mail-identities for new mail.
+<item>Send queued messages: all the messages that you put into the "Queue" folder will now be sent off.
+<item>Compose new message: allows you to write a new e-mail message.
+<item>Reply: an e-mail message will be created with the sender of the selected message in the summary pane as recipient. Depending on the settings, your signature will be added to the mail, and the original mail text will be quoted.
+<item>Reply to all: as Reply, but the recipients will be all e-mail addresses in the original messages (including the ones in the cc: part).
+<item>Forward: a message will be created with the original message in the summary pane as text. You can then enter a recipient e-mail address, edit the text if you want, and send it.
+<item>Forward as attachment: as Forward, but the message text will sent along as a separate textfile.
+<item>Move: lets you move the message to a different folder. You can select the destination folder from a browse-window.
+<item>Copy: as Move, only that the message is copied to the new folder, instead of moved.
+<item>Delete: lets you delete the message that is selected in the summary pane.
+<item>Mark: Gives a submenu: Mark/Unmark/Mark as read/Unmark as read. When you mark messages, you can do a specific action (e.g. move, delete) on all of the marked messages. You can unmark messages that you mistakenly marked. The other options do as they say, they mark or unmark a message as read.
+<item>Open in new window: This will open the message in the summary pane into a new window, allowing you to see more text at once.You can close this window by clicking the close button or pressing Escape.
+<item>View source: opens a new window with the message in it, including all message headers. You can close this window by clicking the close button or pressing Escape.
+<item>Show all header: opens a new window with only the message headers. You can close this window by clicking the close button or pressing Escape.
+<item>Reedit: this option is only available when you select a message in the Draft folder. You can then edit the draft message.
+</itemize>
+A note on functions like Move, Copy and Delete: if you did not specify to execute the commands immediately (in the configuration), you will have to select the "Execute" command. This is a button in the toolbar, and can also be found in the Summary menu.
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Summary menu<p>
+In the Summary menu you can perform all kinds of functions that are related to handling messages. The actions are done on the message summary pane.
+<itemize>
+<item>Delete duplicate messages: This will remove messages from the active folder that were sent twice to you. For example you received a message directly and through a mailing list at the same time.
+<item>Filter messages: you can use this option if you want to filter existing messages through a new filter you set up.
+<item>Execute: this option is needed if you did not set "execute immediately" in the preferences. "Execute" will then do the actions you want (e.g. Copy, Move, Filter etc.)
+<item>Update: refreshes the message pane view to reflect any changes.
+<item>Prev message: selects the previous message. Pine ex-users can also use "p".
+<item>Next message: select the next message. Pine ex-users can also use "n".
+<item>Next unread message: skips to the next unread message in the folder.
+<item>Go to other folder: allows you to open a new mail folder. You can use a browse window for this.
+<item>Sort: this option will allow you to sort the mail view in several ways. You can sort by date, by subject, by number (MH's internal message number is meant here) etc. Note that "Attract by subject" is different from sorting by subject. Attract by subject overlooks the "Re:" references in the subject. In that way messages are sorted in a more logical way.
+<item>Thread view: messages are linked together in a tree view, on subject.
+<item>Unthread view: undos the previous item.
+<item>Set display item: shows a dialog box in which you can check and uncheck the items you want to see in the summary pane.
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Tool menu<p>
+In the Tool menu you will find 2 options (upto version 0.4.66). It is the address book and the log window.<p>
+In the address book, as you may expect, you can store the e-mail addresses that you want to save. You can create folders within the address book, to keep addresses together.<p>
+In the log window, you can see what Sylpheed is doing. Keeping track of things in that way is very good when you suspect there is something wrong. You can paste the info of the log window into an e-mail and send it to the developer or the mailing list.
+</sect2>
+
+<sect2>Configuration menu<p>
+In the Configuration menu, clearly, you can set up Sylpheed the way you want it to work and react.
+<itemize>
+
+<item>Common preferences: in this option you will be presented a dialog in which you can select a number of tabs. Each tab represents a specific set of settings in Sylpheed. In the next chapter, these dialog options are explained in more detail.
+
+<item>Filtering: this option shows you a dialog in which you can set up the filtering rules that you want Sylpheed to process on receiving new e-mails. You first specify on which part(s) of the e-mail Sylpheed has to check, and then you tell Sylpheed what to do. You can move the message to a different directory (including trash to get rid of spam mail). Selecting the destination folder is possible through a browser window that comes up when you press "Select..."<p>
+You can choose not to receive the e-mail. Note that this will leave the message on the mailserver of your provider, the message will not be removed!<p>
+When you press the "Register" button, the filter rule is added to the list of rules. Do you select "Substitute", then the selected rule is replaced by the information of the setting entered. "Delete" in the end will delete the selected filtering rule.<p>
+Please note that you can set up 2 selections for a rule, which can be "OR'd" or "AND'd". OR means that one of the 2 selections will have to match for the rule to be executed. AND means that both selections have to match before an action is performed.<p>
+To the right of the selection rules you see buttons called UP and DOWN. You can move rules up and down in the list. This will often trigger different behaviour in the selections, so consider the order in which you set the rules.
+<item>Preferences per account: here you can set the specifics for the account you are currently using. Should mail be deleted after fetching, what is the server it comes from, etc. Basically it is the same dialog form as shown in setting up a new account.
+<item>Create new account: here you name the account (each account has a recognizable name), you set up your name and e-mail address etc. You set up the type of server you access (POP4, IMAP4, local mailbox, newsserver) and where the downloaded messages have to go (default folder is the inbox). In the RECEIVE tab you select or unselect options, in SEND you can set up how to send your messages. In COMPOSE you can point to a specific signature file, and in ADVANCED you can set up alternate ports for the server, if these exist. (Do not mess with these unless you are sure you have to!!)
+<item>Edit accounts: here you can select one of the accounts you created, from a list, and edit the information about them. Note that you cannot edit an account for which you are writing a message at the same time. This to ensure data integrity.
+<item>Change current account: here you can select what account you want to use, to write a message.
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+
+<sect2>Help menu<p>
+This menu lets you look at the (japanese for now) manual, and you can also see the "about" info, who wrote Sylpheed.
+</sect2>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Context menu
+<p>
+You can pull up context menus (through clicking button2) for the folder tree and the summary pane. (windows users: button2 is the right mouse button.)
+<p>
+In the folder view you can add, rename and remove folders through the context menu.<p>
+In the message summary you can do a host of things from the context menu, like viewing message headers, opening a message in a separate window (also possible by double clicking on a message) etc.
+</sect1>
+
+<sect>Dialogs and views<p>
+<sect1>Folder view <p>
+The folder view shows you all the mail folders that you have created, in a tree-like structure. If you want to see the headers of the messages in a specific folder, just click the name of the folder once, and in the summary view you can see the messages in the selected mail folder.<p>
+When you see a + sign in front of a folder name, that means the folder branch of that part of the tree is 'collapsed'. You can expand that part by clicking the + sign. In that same manner you can also collapse the - sign in front of an expanded branch of the folder tree.<p>
+Special folders:<p>
+Draft: here you store messages that you want to send out more often, or you want to work on some more. Using the 'reedit' option from the message menu, you can edit the message further.<p>
+Trash: in here all your deleted messages go. Depending on the common preferences setting, this box is or is not emptied when you end Sylpheed.
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Summary view <p>
+The summary pane can show you many things. You can select what you want to see from the Summary menu, selecting the option "Set display item". A list of all options is:
+<itemize>
+<item>Mark: shows if the message is marked.
+<item>Unread: shows if the message is read or not
+<item>MIME: shows MIME attachments
+<item>Number: shows the MH number of the message
+<item>Size: the size of the entire message including attachments
+<item>Date: the date of sending by the sender
+<item>From: who sent the message
+<item>Subject: what the message is about
+</itemize>
+You can sort the summary view in many ways, by clicking the button that is above the column. Click once to sort going up (a-z), click once more to sort going down (z-a).<p>
+If you think the size of a column is not right, you can adjust that by placing the mouse cursor next to the button of the column you want to adjust, press mouebutton1 (left button) and drag the column to the width you want it to have.<p>
+Select a message by clicking on it with the mouse. Once the summary pane has the focus of the program, you can also move up and down in the list through the cursor keys, or pressing "p"(revious) and "n"(ext) as in Pine.
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Message view <p>
+In the message view you can read the message that you selected in the summary pane. If you entered the summary pane without selecting a message, the message view will be empty. At the top of the message view some info is presented about the message you are reading, as well as some statistics on the selected folder.<p>
+You can scroll up and down in the message by using the arrow keys (after clicking inside the message), or by using the scrollbar.
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Common preferences<p>
+The Common Preferences, found in the Configuration menu, shows you the following tabs:
+<sect2>Receive tab<p>
+In here you can set up how to receive messages.
+<itemize>
+<item>You can define a special program to pick up messages from the default unix mailbox. Usually this is not used, but you can use it. Actually, this information may be wrong. If someone knows better, please let me know.
+<item>Local spool lets you define where your local mailbox is located. You can also tell Sylpheed whether or not to filter the incoming messages from that mail spool file.
+<item>Autocheck new mail. When you check this option, Sylpheed will check if there is new mail on the set interval.
+<item>Check new mail on startup means that Sylpheed will immediately look for new mail on all the selected accounts when it loads.
+<item>In the news section you can specify how many articles should be downloaded when opening a newsgroup.
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>Setting up an account/changing an account<p>
+In order to set up an account in Sylpheed, in the configuration menu you select "Create new account". If you want to change the settings of an existing account, you select the "Edit accounts..." option from the configuration menu, and there you select the account you want to change. After that you press "edit". Then a dialog appears in which you can enter or update the following areas:
+<p>
+<sect2>Basic tab<p>
+In the "Basic" tab you name the account. This is to make identifying the account easier.<p>
+Choose a name that tells something about the account, like the name of the ISP, mailbox or news-server you are setting up. You can select this account to be the default account ("Usually used").<p>
+Enter your name and e-mail address, and if you have one, the organization that you use Sylpheed for.
+In the Protocol box you select the type of service that this account will be using. The flavors you can choose are: POP3 normal, POP3 APOP auth, IMAP4, NNTP news or None (local).
+In the "inbox" field you can enter the mail folder where the mail for this account will be stored in. This option is disabled when you set up an NNTP News account.<p>
+For POP3 and IMAP services you can then specify the server where your mail is stored. Details about this name, and also the name that goes into the field for "SMPT server (send)" should be given to you by your ISP.<p>
+For a local unix mailbox, the "Server for receiving" is disabled, since the mail will be received for you.<p>
+The fields for User ID and Password will also be disabled for accounts that do no deal with POP3 or IMAP services. Otherwise you can enter the login name and password for the e-mail server with your ISP here. Usually these are the same as your login name and password to access the dial-in service, but this is not standard. If in doubt, contact the helpdesk of your ISP. <p>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Receive tab<p>
+<p>
+The "Receive" tab is only used for POP3 accounts. Here you specify if the mails that were successfully retrieved should be removed from the server. You can also tell Sylpheed to get all the messages there, not only the ones you already received (in case you leave your messages on the server). The third option enables this account to be included when mail is checked for "all accounts" (see the message menu for this), and if the incoming messages should immediately be filtered when received.
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Send tab <p>
+In the "Send" tab you can set up some more settings.
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Compose tab <p>
+In the "Compose" tab you can define your signature file.
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Advanced tab<p>
+In the "Advanced" tab you can edit the portnumbers for the servers you will be using. This normally will need no change.
+</sect2>

+<sect>Viewing messages
+<sect1>Reading a message<p>
+Reading a message is quite simple. If you have the message pane within view, all you need to do is once click the message you want to read and it already appears in the message view. When you double-click the message, a separate window will open, showing you the message. You can close the opened window by pressing ESCape or clicking the 'close' button.
+</sect1>
+<sect1>Viewing Multipart MIME (Attached Files)<p>
+When a message contains an attachment, you can have several options to view the information in that file. Sylpheed can be able, when compiled against the proper libraries, to display images "inline". This means you can click the name of the image and you can see it in the lower part of the message screen.<p>
+How do you see an attachment is in an e- mail?<p>
+This shows through an extra section that appears between the summary pane and the message view. In it you can see the separate parts of the e-mail. Sometimes you can't view the contents of an attachment directly. Then you can rightclick the name of the file and select "OPEN" from the appearing menu. If this does not work, it means that the extension of the file is not recognized through the directives in the mailcap file. In that case you can always use the "Save as..." option in the popup menu, save the file to disk and open the file with the proper program.
+</sect1>
+<sect1>Extending and Closing Threads
+<p>
+Sylpheed offers the option to view messages in threads. Threads are no more than series of e-mails in a logical sequence. Suppose 15 people sent you a mail called "Re: bananas". You can't easily tell which one is the first and which one is the last in that sequence.<p>
+By activating threads (summary menu), Sylpheed will attempt to show the sequence of mails as they were written/sent from first to last.<p>
+To undo the threads view, you simply select the same menu option again and the e-mails are displayed in standard order again.
+</sect1>
+<sect1>Message Operations (Moving, Deleting, etc.)
+<p>
+Sylpheed gives you many ways to manage your messages. You can move them to new mailboxes, or delete them. Through the message menu (see that section for more details) plenty of options are available to do with your e-mails what you want done. The advantage of moving messages to different mailboxes (also see Filtering for that, as described in the Configuration menu section) is that you keep an overview of your inbox. Suppose you are collecting e-mails in there of 8 different subjects. And you are looking for a specific one on a specific subject. That will give you a lot of work, trying to find the right message. Creating a new mail folder for each subject, and moving the messages to that new one, lifts a lot of work afterwards from your hands.
+</sect1>
+<sect1>URL in a Message
+<p>
+At times you may find a URL in a message. A URL is a link to a website. Usually it is shown in the form "http://www.somewhere.something".<p>
+If you want to visit that website, you only need to double-click the URL, and the default webbrowser you set up (usually Netscape) will activate and load the website.<p>
+In the configuration options, Sylpheed has a color setting specific for URL's so you can spot a URL easily.

+<sect1>Using POP Reception Function in Sylpheed<p>
+<!-- added 2001/07/19 -->
+Receiving messages from a POP server is very easy, once you set up Sylpheed the proper way. You can refer to the section "Setting up an account" on how to do this.<p>
+Once you are connected to the internet, or by another network that gives you access to the POP server, simply press the "Get new mail" button (or press Alt-I) and Sylpheed will connect to the server to fetch your new mail. Once this is retrieved, any filters you may have set up will be executed and then the folder pane will show you, marked in bold, which folder/mailbox contains new messages.

+<sect1>Using Other Programs such as fetchmail<p>
+<!-- added 2001/07/19 -->
+Although it is not within the scope of this manual, a bit of information on fetchmail or getmail.<p>
+You need to have either of these programs installed, and configured correctly. See the man pages/README files of the appropriate program on doing this.<p>
+After setting the program up, you can invoke it, either by hand or through CRON, to get your mail. The mail will usually be downloaded into /var/spool/mail/your_user_id. You can then tell Sylpheed, through an account that looks in your local unix mailbox, to get mail from there. For this you press the "Get mail" button, or press "Alt-I".

+<sect1>Composing a New Message<p>
+When you start writing a new message, you are presented a nice dialog in which you can enter all kinds of information. In the From: line you find a dropdown list. In there you can select the e-mail account you want to use as the sending account.<p>
+In the To: / Cc: / Bcc: part, you write the e-mail address of the receiver. You can enter several e-mail addresses, as long as they are separated by commas. An important utility here is the button "Address". When you click that, you see the address book. You can point at an address, click the "To:", "Cc:" or "Bcc:" button, and Sylpheed will place the address in the selected line. The Bcc: may be greyed out. In order to make that accessible, you need to add the Bcc: line to the message. You do that through the Message menu, and checking the Bcc option.<p>
+In the Subject line you enter a short descriptive text what your message will be about.<p>
+You can move between these lines by pressing TAB (to skip to the next line) and SHIFT-TAB (to go back up). When you press TAB in the last line, you will be moved to the message body.<p>
+Did you select a signature file in the settings for the active account, it will be in the message text already. You can now write your message. When you are done, you can click Send, Send later or Draft in the toolbar. Send attempts to send the message immediately. Send later will place it in the Send folder, and Draft will place it in the Draft folder.

+<sect1>Replying to a Message<p>
+<!-- added 2001/07/19 -->
+To reply to a message, you use the "reply" function. In Sylpheed you activate this through either the "Reply" button, or by pressing Alt-R.<p>
+A new message window will be created, with the e-mail address of the recipient and the subject already set for you. Most of the things described in Composing a new message are also applicable to this window.

+<!-- added 2001/07/19 -->
+If you want to have Sylpheed quote the text you are replying to, you need to go into the Configuration menu. There you select Common preferences, go to the Compose tab, and check the "Quote message when replying" box. There you can also edit the quotation mark (the mark put in front of each quoted line in the reply mail) and the reply attribution (which is placed in front of the reply text).

+<sect>Filtering Messages<p>
+Written by Nick Selby (sylpheed@nickselby.com)<p>
+
+<sect1>Filtering Messages<p>
+Sylpheed provides powerful filters to allow users to automatically pre-sort incoming
+mail based on a set of rules that the user defines. As a most simple example, let's
+say you work at the Acme Grommet Company, and you want all e-mail from your co-workers
+to be placed in one mailbox. To accomplish this, you would set up a filter that would
+place all mail whose "From" header includes the phrase "acmegrommet.com" into a specific mailbox.<p>
+Sylpheed allows you much more control than just that simple setup; you may create
+filters based on several variables, including an "If this AND that" or "If the message
+contains this OR does NOT contain that" etc. It's very cool.
+<sect2>Finding The Filter Setting Dialog<p>
+The filter settings dialog is located in the Configuration menu, under the title
+"Filter Setting". You may also use establish a keyboard shortcut (see Keyboard Shortcuts).
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Setting Up Filters<p>
+Operator(s) and Processing instructions combine to create a Filter Rule.
+
+* Operators
+The dialog's first setting option establishes the Operator, the variable that will
+tell the filter what specific text to look for to trigger a filter. Each Filter Rule may have up to two operator sets.<p>
+Each Operator variable contains three sections: Header, Keyword and Predicate.<p>
+Header is a drop-down box which defines in which message header Sylpheed's filter will search. Choices range from Subject to X-Mailer.
+
+Keyword is a a text box in which you may enter the text for which the filter will search.
+
+Predicate allows you to choose to filter based on whether the operator
+contains, or does not contain, the text you enter in the Keyword field. <p>
+Example: Create an Operator in which the X-Mailer field of an incoming message contains the word 'Eudora'.
+<itemize>
+<item>Step 1. Under the Header drop-down box, select X-Mailer.
+<item>Step 2. In the Keyword text box, type 'eudora' (case insensitive)
+<item>Step 3. Determine appropriate Predicate setting. Default is "Contains".
+</itemize>
+The second Operator setting, which is set identically to the first, also allows the
+user to select an AND/OR setting declaring the relationship between the two operators.
+<p>
+Example: Create an Operator set which will process mail with a "From" header of
+bob@acmegrommet.com AND a subject of "2001 Spring Grommet Collection"
+<itemize>
+<item>Step 1. Under the first Operator set's Header drop-down box, select "From".
+<item>Step 2. In the "Keyword" text box, type 'bob@acmegrommet.com' (case insensitive)
+<item>Step 3. Leave "Predicate" setting on default, "Contains"
+<item>Step 4. Leave "AND/OR" box on default setting, "AND"
+<item>Step 5. Under the second Operator set's "Header" drop-down box, select "Subject".
+<item>Step 6. In the "Keyword" text box, type '2001 spring grommet collection' (case insensitive)
+<item>Step 7. Leave "Predicate" setting on default, "Contains"
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Message Processing<p>
+Once you've established the Operator(s) that will define which messages will be
+processed, it's time to tell Sylpheed what to do with messages that match the
+operator(s). You may choose between two radio button-selected settings: "Destination" and "Don't Receive".
+<p>
+Selecting "Destinations" will enable you to route the mail into
+a mailbox which you specify.
+<p>
+Selecting "Don't Receive" will instruct Sylpheed to not download messages with that
+operator. Note that with "Don't Receive", Sylpheed merely leaves the message on your mailserver - it does not delete it.
+
+To specify a mailbox to which you want the message transfered, click on the radio
+button to the left of the word "Destination" in the dialog. (Currently, in order to
+specify a mailbox you must have created that mailbox prior to activating the Filter
+Setting dialog.) Clicking the "Select" button will open a pop-up window containing all
+mail folders currently active in your copy of Sylpheed. Select the mailbox you wish by
+either (a) double clicking on the mail folder name or (b) clicking the mail folder name and then clicking "OK".
+<p>
+To specify that the message not be retrieved, and left on your mail server, click the
+radio button to the left of the words "Don't Receive".
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Filter Registration<p>
+Now that you have set the Operator and the Processing Rule, all that's left to do is
+tell Sylpheed to save the entire Filter Rule. If you skip this step, the filter won't work.
+<p>
+The "Register Rules" configuration has three options: "Register", "Substitute" and "Delete".
+<itemize>
+<item>"Register" saves the Filter Rule.
+<item>"Substitute" modifies an existing registered Filter Rule.
+<item>"Delete" will remove a previously registered Filter Rule.
+</itemize>
+Example of Registering A Filter Rule: Create a Filter Rule that moves all mail with
+the subject of "Sylpheed Manual" into the (previously created) mail folder "Sylpheed Manual Mail".
+<itemize>
+<item>Step 1. Under the first Operator set's "Header" drop-down box, select "Subject".
+<item>Step 2. In the "Keyword" text box, type 'sylpheed manual' (case insensitive)
+<item>Step 3. Leave "Predicate" setting on default, "Contains". Leave second Operator set empty.
+<item>Step 4. Click "Destinations" radio button; select "Sylpheed Manual Mail" folder
+<item>Step 5. Click "Register"
+<item>Step 6. Click OK
+</itemize>
+Example of Substituting A Filter Rule: Modify a previously created Filter Rule that
+moves all mail with the subject of "Sylpheed Manual" to sort mail not to the
+mail folder "Sylpheed Manual Mail" but rather the mail folder "Sylpheed Questions"
+<itemize>
+<item>Step 1. Under the first Operator set's Header drop-down box, select Subject.
+<item>Step 2. In the Keyword text box, type 'sylpheed manual' (case insensitive)
+<item>Step 3. Leave Predicate setting on default, "Contains". Leave second Operator set empty.
+<item>Step 4. Click "Destinations" radio button; select "Sylpheed Questions" folder
+<item>Step 5. Click "Substitute"
+<item>Step 6. Click OK
+</itemize>
+Example of Deleting a Filter Rule: Remove the previously created Filter Rule which refers to Subject:Sylpheed Questions.
+<itemize>
+<item>Step 1. In the "Registered Rules" select box, highlight the filter entitled "Subject:Sylpheed Manual: :::Sylpheed Questions:1:1:m"
+<item>Step 2. Click the "Delete" Button
+<item>Step 3. Confirm the deletion by clicking "Yes" in the confirmation pop-up that asks, "Do you really want to delete this rule?
+<item>Step 4. Click "OK"
+</itemize>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>Registered Rule Order<p>
+One caveat about all this: the order in which Filter Rules are created could adversely
+affect your intended message sorting, and one needs to consider this when creating or updating Filter Rules.
+<p>
+For example, a Filter Rule saying, "Move anything containing 'ABC' to Mailbox X" listed above another Filter Rule saying "Move anything containing 'ABCDEF' to Mailbox Y" will cause the latter of these filters not to process.
+<p>
+Think about the way Sylpheed goes down its list: first, it would say.."Hmm, any messages with ABC? Ah, there's one! Move it." Then it would think, "Okay, any messages with ABCDEF?" To which the answer would be "no" - that ABCDEF was already filtered because it contained "ABC".
+<p>

+In order to avoid this, you must ensure that the more complex Filter Rule is processed first, by placing it higher than a similar, conflicting Filter Rule.
+<p>
+To move a Registered Rule higher or lower within the Registered Rule box, select the rule you would like to move, and click on the "Up" or "Down" buttons. This will "move" the rule up or down, above or below a potentially conflicting Filter Rule.

+<sect1>How to Filter Messages<p>
+<!-- added 2001/07/22 -->
+Filtering messages can be done in several ways:
+<itemize>
+<item>Sylpheed automatically filters incoming mail from POP servers.
+<item>If you incorporate mail from a unix mailbox, then in the Common preferences (Configuration menu), you need to check the box called "Filter on incorporation". You find this box in the Receive tab in the space "Local spool".
+<item>You can also select the option "Filter messages" from the Summary menu.
+</itemize>
+Please note that, at time of writing, Sylpheed does -NOT YET- has filtering of IMAP messages enabled.

+Sylpheed lets you import messages of the Mbox format from the File menu. First you create the mail folder where you want the messages to end up in, then you select File->import Mbox file. Use the browse function to select the Mbox file and the Sylpheed mail folder, and press Ok. And voila, there is your mail, imported.<p>

+<sect>NetNews<p>
+What is netnews?<p>
+Netnews, also called Usenet, is a collection of "news servers" that contain a great deal of information. News, as it is called in short, can be about anything. About making your own wine, about old cars or radios. You name it, and there probably is a newsgroup about it.<p>
+This is what we will set up here. Accessing newsgroups. Note that this is different from e-mails. You can almost compare it to a mailing list, but yet the concept is a bit different.
+<!-- added 2001/07/20 -->
+<sect1>Adding and Deleting Servers<p>
+<sect2>
+Adding a news server<p>
+To add a news server, go to the configuration menu and select the "create new account" option.
+There you can name the news-account to anything of your liking. This is important, so you can identify the account later.<p>
+In the BASIC tab, in the block 'personal information' you also can enter your own name, your e-mail address (so you can reply to news message by e-mail), optionally your organization (if you are organized at all).<p>
+In the block 'Server information' you select the "News (NNTP)" protocol. Forget about "Inbox", that does not matter in this setup. Next you enter the name of the newsserver you want to connect to. You can get that name from your ISP, if you don't already have that.<p>
+If you need to log into the news server, check the box next to "This server requires authentication", and then fill the fields for User ID and Password.<p>
+Next step is to go to the Send tab. Since Receive is only there for e-mail, there is no need to do anything there. You can't even do anything in the Receive tab, for that matter. So, in Send you can select a few options:
+<itemize>
+<item>If you want a date header field added to posts
+<item>If Sylpheed should generate a Message-ID
+<item>If you want to add user-defined headers
+</itemize>
+The next items only apply to when you reply to a news message through e-mail. You can set an automatic CC, BCC or Reply-To address here. In case your ISP requires SMTP authentication, you can select the checkbox here below.<p>
+The next tab, Compose, allows you to select a default signature file. This will be added to each post to the newsgroups you do.<p>
+Finally, in the "Advanced" tab, you can specify the port on which Sylpheed has to connect to the news server. The default is 119, and only in rare cases you should have to do something about that.<p>
+Now you click "OK" and the account is created! You can verify this by checking the folder pane in Sylpheed. There you will see a new folder created with the name of the account you entered, and (news) behind it.<p>
+</sect2>
+<sect2>
+Deleting a news-server.<p>
+If you want to delete a news-account, right-click the news-folder and select "Remove news account". After confirming that you want this to be done, the account and all files related will be removed.
+</sect2>
+</sect1>
+<sect1>Subscribing and Unsubscribing to NewsGroups<p>
+Okay. Here the real stuff begins. First you have to let Sylpheed load the list of news groups that is on the news system. Right-click the new NEWS folder and select "Subscribe to newsgroups". Sylpheed will tell you that the groups need to be downloaded, so sit back and wait a while. Of course, during time, new groups are added, and dead groups are removed. For this you can click the "refresh" button in the newsgroup dialog, so a new list is downloaded and you are up to date<p>
+After a while the groups are loaded and displayed in a window. Now you can look up a group that is interesting, for example comp.os.linux.networking. Click the name once and then select OK. The group will be added to the news folder as a subfolder. When you now click the name of the new subfolder, Sylpheed will connect to the news server and download the headers (subject lines, in e-mail talk), to your computer. Some groups have -large- amounts of articles, so this may take a while!!<p>
+</sect1>
+<sect1>Reading News<p>
+When the articles are displayed, in the summary view, you can click one of them to be downloaded so you can read it. This will usually go very quickly on discussion groups.<p>
+If you want to respond to a message, press Alt-R (or press "Reply") and a message window will pop up, with the name of the newsgroup already in the "To" field. Depending on whether or not you selected quoting of the message, the original message will be in the body of the message already. Write away, then send, and soon the entire world will be able to read what you wrote on the subject.<p>
+Starting a new message in a newsgroup is equally simple: press Alt-N (or click "New"), the name of the newsgroup is in the "To" field, and you can write your question or reply.
+<sect2>A note about binary files<p>
+In newsgroups you can download binary files. These are programs, images etc. Often these are posted as so called UUencoded files. Sylpheed will as upto version 0.5.1 not decode UUencoded files. You need to save these articles to disk as separate files, and use a separate decoder program, like juju, to decode the garble of text. A UUencoded file usually looks something like this:<p>
+begin 666 sundown.jpg<p>
+after which you will find nicely formatted blocks of characters that don't seem to mean anything.

+The server returns the mail once for the first registration request that asks the confirmation: "May I put you on this mailing list?" that includes the following phrase (this number is merely an example).<p>
+confirm 84682771 Anne Shirley<p>
+This is a precaution for mischief like subscribing you to the list against your wish.<p>
+If you received the entry confirmation mail, send a mail that includes the phrase:<p>
+confirm Password(a number) Your Name<p>
+to the address for registration: sylpheed-ctl@good-day.net again. Then, it is considered that you have confirmed the registration and you are registered to the server.<p>
+The address for posting to the list is sylpheed@good-day.net.<p>
+Notice: If you lost the mail that says<p>
