How
to check your mails:
There are several ways to check your mails. The first and easiest way is to click on the globe in the main screen. Koma-Mail will download now all mails from the account which have “Auto-check mails” activated. With this option you can separate the accounts you want to check more often from accounts you need to check less often. To download your messages from all accounts press on “Check mails”->”Check all accounts”.
You can also see if you have new messages on the server by downloading only the header of the messages. That way you can choose to download, delete or skip the messages directly on the server. You can activate the header-preview as default for an account in the mail-account options (“Preview header”) or you choose “Check mails”->”Account (with header)”->”Your account”. Now you see the header first:
To download a mail, check the first box, to delete the mail from the server check the second one.
What you can also use is to let Koma-Mail download the mails by itself. Each account where “Auto-check mails” is activated will be checked in a periodical interval. You can set this interval in the “Options”->”Options”->”Mail”. To automatically check mails at the set interval click on “Check mails”->”Auto-check mails”. If you do not want to check mails automatically this option can also be easily deactivated by demarking “Auto-check mails” (very useful for dial-up connections).
