| 20 | <P> | ||
| 21 | <P> | ||
| 22 | <P>The appearance of the Sylpheed windows is controlled by | ||
| 23 | a Gtk+ theme (as Sylpheed is based on the Gtk+ toolkit). | ||
| 24 | Read the Gtk+ or your distribution documentation to find | ||
| 25 | how to change the Gtk+ theme. | ||
| 26 | <P> | ||
| 27 | <H2><A NAME="ss7.1">7.1 Folder view</A> | ||
| 28 | </H2> | ||
| 29 | |||
| 30 | <P>The folder view shows you all the mail folders that you have created, | ||
| 31 | in a tree-like structure. If you want to see the headers of the messages | ||
| 32 | in a specific folder, just click the name of the folder once, and in the | ||
| 33 | summary view (2) you can see the messages in the selected mail folder. | ||
| 34 | <P>When you see a + sign in front of a folder name, that means the folder | ||
| 35 | branch of that part of the tree is 'collapsed'. You can expand that | ||
| 36 | part by clicking the + sign. In that same manner you can also collapse | ||
| 37 | the - sign in front of an expanded branch of the folder tree. | ||
| 38 | <P>The folder pane can be resized be dragging (left mouse button down) | ||
| 39 | the handle found on the left of the folder view. | ||
| 40 | <P>The folder window can be detached from the main Sylpheed window | ||
| 41 | by selecting the menu action: <CODE>View -> Separate folder tree</CODE>. | ||
| 42 | When exiting the current state of the folder window (attached or | ||
| 43 | detached) is saved to be restored when re-starting Sylpheed. | ||
| 44 | To re-attach the folder window, de-select the menu entry. | ||
| 45 | <P> | ||
| 46 | <H3>Special folders:</H3> | ||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | <P><I>Draft:</I> here you store messages that you want to send out more often, | ||
| 49 | or you want to work on some more. Using the 'reedit' option from the | ||
| 50 | message menu, you can edit the message further. | ||
| 51 | <P><I>Trash:</I> in here all your deleted messages go. Depending on the common | ||
| 52 | preferences setting, this box is or is not emptied when you end Sylpheed. | ||
| 53 | <P><I>Sent:</I> in here are saved the messages you send (enabled by a | ||
| 54 | common preference setting and the folder can be changed by an account | ||
| 55 | preference setting). | ||
| 56 | <P><I>Queue:</I> this folder contains the composed messaged waiting to | ||
| 57 | be sent (with Sylpheed message sending can be delayed). | ||
| 58 | <P> | ||
| 59 | <H2><A NAME="ss7.2">7.2 Summary view</A> | ||
| 60 | </H2> | ||
| 61 | |||
| 62 | <P>The summary pane can show you many things. You can select what you | ||
| 63 | want to see from the Summary menu, selecting the option | ||
| 64 | "Set display item". A list of all options is: | ||
| 65 | <UL> | ||
| 66 | <LI>Mark: shows if the message is marked.</LI> | ||
| 67 | <LI>Unread: shows if the message is read or not</LI> | ||
| 68 | <LI>MIME: shows MIME attachments</LI> | ||
| 69 | <LI>Number: shows the MH number of the message</LI> | ||
| 70 | <LI>Size: the size of the entire message including attachments</LI> | ||
| 71 | <LI>Date: the date of sending by the sender</LI> | ||
| 72 | <LI>From: who sent the message</LI> | ||
| 73 | <LI>Subject: what the message is about</LI> | ||
| 74 | </UL> | ||
| 75 | <P>You can sort the summary view in many ways, by clicking the button | ||
| 76 | that is above the column. Click once to sort going up (a-z), click | ||
| 77 | once more to sort going down (z-a). | ||
| 78 | <P>If you think the size of a column is not right, you can adjust that | ||
| 79 | by placing the mouse cursor next to the button of the column you | ||
| 80 | want to adjust, press mousebutton1 (left button) and drag the | ||
| 81 | column to the width you want it to have. | ||
| 82 | <P>Select a message by clicking on it with the mouse. Once the summary | ||
| 83 | pane has the focus of the program, you can also move up and down | ||
| 84 | in the list through the cursor keys, or pressing "p"(revious) and | ||
| 85 | "n"(ext) as in Pine. | ||
| 86 | <H2><A NAME="ss7.3">7.3 Message view</A> | ||
| 87 | </H2> | ||
| 88 | |||
| 89 | <P>In the message view you can read the message that you selected in | ||
| 90 | the summary pane. If you entered the summary pane without selecting | ||
| 91 | a message, the message view will be empty. At the top of the | ||
| 92 | message view some info is presented about the message you are | ||
| 93 | reading, as well as some statistics on the selected folder. | ||
| 94 | <P>You can scroll up and down in the message by using the arrow keys | ||
| 95 | (after clicking inside the message), or by using the scrollbar. | ||
| 96 | <P>The size of the message and summary views can be adjusted by dragging | ||
| 97 | (with the left mouse button down) the handle that appears between | ||
| 98 | the two panes. | ||
| 99 | <P>The small arrow located just below the summary pane scrollbar can | ||
| 100 | be used to detach the message view. When clicked, the summary view | ||
| 101 | is extended down to the bottom of the Sylpheed window, and the messages | ||
| 102 | are displayed is a separate window (when you double click them in the | ||
| 103 | summary pane). This state is not saved on exit, and the message window | ||
| 104 | can be restored below the summary one by clicking again the small arrow. | ||
| 105 | <P>When the current message contains attachments, two tabs | ||
| 106 | are displayed in the message window. Selecting the first one makes | ||
| 107 | the message window display the text body of the message, while selecting | ||
| 108 | the second tab makes the message window display the attachment part | ||
| 109 | of the message. In the latter case, the message window is splitted | ||
| 110 | in two parts, the top one contains the attachments as a tree | ||
| 111 | with the MIME type, size and file name of each part, while the bottom | ||
| 112 | part contains the content of the selected attachment (if the attachment | ||
| 113 | is an image and Sylpheed has been compiled with the gdk-pixbuf or | ||
| 114 | the imlib library). | ||
