Z-Mail Pro 6.1 User's Guide

Chapter 5. Z-Mail™ Pro and Z-Mail™ Pro Administration

The Z-Mail™ Pro application provides electronic mail services for the TCP/IP network environment. (Support for SNA network environments is not provided in the Z-Mail™ Pro Standalone product. To use the SNA mail transport, you must have the Chameleon Hostlink for ChameleonNFS/X product). To communicate within the standard Internet (TCP/IP) environment, Z-Mail™ Pro uses the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to both send and receive mail, and the Post Office Protocol (POP2 and POP3) to retrieve mail from a server. You can use these protocols to directly integrate with UNIX mail. Z-Mail™ Pro supports MIME (Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions ) which allows you to attach files to mail messages.

Note: When you minimize the Z-Mail™ Pro application, an animated icon of a mailbox appears. When new mail arrives in the current folder, the mailbox door opens. Z-Mail™ Pro in previous versions was called Mail.

Z-Mail™ Pro supports the following protocols:

  • Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) - to both send and receive mail
  • Post Office Protocol (POP2 and POP3) - to retrieve mail from a server
  • IMAP protocol - to retrieve mail from a remote server
  • MIME (Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions)- to allow attachment of files to mail messages

Note: These protocols can be used to directly integrate with UNIX mail.

Features include the ability to:

  • read and prepare messages off-line, saving you connection costs
  • attach multimedia files to your messages through MIME (Multi-purpose Internet Mail Extensions)
  • view, create or edit a message in standard HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) format
  • Internet message access through Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP4) with support MAPI-enabled (Messaging Application Programming Interface) applications.
  • route messages to others one after another
  • retrieve message header only information using the Smart Pop feature
  • create rules for automatically filtering and filing incoming mail
  • create your own personal address books
  • attach binary files through uuencode/uudecode
  • set up multiple mail accounts
  • create rules to activate the new Z-Mail™ Pro scripting language ( using VBA scripts)
  • view graphic attachments using Inline Images
  • send files to recipients without opening Z-Mail™ Pro
  • access Forum directly from Z-Mail™ Pro

You can find information on how to set up Z-Mail™ Pro accounts in Chapter 2, Setting up Z-Mail™ Pro Client

Organizing Your Z-Mail™ Pro Messages

In order to organize your messages efficiently, the Z-Mail™ Pro application allows you to create folders into which you can place your mail messages.

When the main Z-Mail™ Pro window is displayed, you will notice that the window is split into two panes: the left pane is called the Containers pane and the right pane is called the Contents pane. The Containers pane is also split into two panes; the top pane contains a list of all local mail folders, and the bottom pane contains a list of remote mail folders accessed by IMAP4 (Internet Message Access Protocol). The Contents pane contains a list of all the messages in the current folder.

In the Containers pane, the names of existing folders, for both local and IMAP, are displayed along with each folder's icon, number of unread messages and total number of messages.

The default folders for the local pane, in descending order, are: Inbox, Draft, Routing, Sent Mail, Template, and Trash. All folders you create are listed alphabetically.

Note: You cannot delete the Inbox, Draft, Routing, Sent Mail, Template, or Trash folders. These folders always appear at the beginning of the Folder list even when they are empty.

In the Contents pane, a list of all the messages in the current folder are displayed. You can drag and drop a message from the right side of the window into the desired local folder on the left side, much like moving files into directories in Windows Explorer or File Manager.

Creating and Sending Z-Mail™ Pro Messages

You may create Z-Mail™ Pro messages in either text or HTML. To create and send a Z-Mail™ Pro message:

  1. From the main Z-Mail™ Pro window, choose the Create button, or choose the Create command from the Message menu, or CTRL-E.
  2. A new mail message window appears. If you have enabled settings for more than one transport (Internet Mail or News), you may select the transport from the Address drop-down.
    • Internet: select this transport to create a standard Internet Mail email message.
    • IMAP4: select this transport to send a standard message through the IMAP network.
    • News: select this transport to post a message to a specified newsgroup.

    The Date field is automatically set to the current date and time. The From field is automatically set to the From field that you defined in Network Settings. If this has not been defined it is automatically set to your user@localhost.domain and when this host has also not been defined, to user@popserver. .

  3. You may address your message as follows:
    • Enter the e-mail name and address of the person you want to send the message to in the text box next to the To field. Then, using the down arrow, select either To (primary recipient), cc (carbon copy), or Bcc (blind carbon copy). Or you may choose to enter an email address from the Address Book.
    • To add additional recipients from an address book: choose the Address button to display the Address Book dialog box containing your address book(s) and their entries. Then, select or type each entry you want to add as a recipient, and choose the To, Cc, or Bcc buttons. Choose the OK button to return to the new mail window.
    • News: If you have selected News, type the newsgroup you require and press ENTER. When the address appears in the field below, <@News:> is automatically added to the address.

      Note: To route your message to others, choose the Add Routing Slip command from the Message menu.

  4. If desired, you can select the Confirm Read and Confirm Delivery options. Select Confirm Read if you want the system to return an acknowledgment that the addressee opened the message. Select Confirm Delivery if you want the system to return an acknowledgment that the message reached the addressee's mail server. Acknowledgments are returned directly to your Mail Inbox folder.

    Note: The Confirm Read option is applicable only if the receiver of the message is running Z-Mail™ Pro. The Confirm Delivery option is applicable only if the addressees mail server supports this function.

  5. If desired, select the priority type of the message you are sending. You can select high, normal, or low priority. Normal priority is the default. If you assign high priority to your message, then a red exclamation point appears next to your message header in the recipient's Inbox. Assigning low priority to your message causes a down arrow to appear next to your message header in the recipient's Inbox.
  6. Type the subject and message text, and if desired, choose the Feelings menu to add a smiling, frowning, or winking symbol in your message.
  7. Choose the Send button to transmit your message to the Outbox. The message is immediately queued in the Outbox for subsequent delivery to it defined destination.

Message Encryption

Encryption is a means of permitting higher security for your mail. The contents of a mail message are encoded, and secured with a key. A key is like a password. The Sender creates a key and informs the receiver of the encrypted message of the value of the key used. The receiver will use this same value to create a key to decrypt the text. If the receiver does not have the appropriate key ( key with the same name and value) in the key list, a dialog box appears, and the value must be entered. The user may create numerous keys, each key has a name and value. In one message, you may use as many different keys as required. Encryption uses algorithm DES-40.

Encrypting Text

In text mode, encrypt text encodes a message/article or a selected portion of a message/article, which can later be decoded, to return to plain text. To encrypt text do the following:

  1. In New Mail/article or Edit Mail window, select the text in the mail message/article you want to encrypt.

    Note: If no text is selected the whole message/article will be encrypted.

  2. Choose the Encrypt Text command from the Message/Article menu.

    The Encryption dialog appears

  3. Select the Key you require for encryption, or create a new key.
  4. Select the OK button.
  5. The text is now changed into encrypted text, to reverse to readable text, select decrypt.

Note: The Encrypt Text command is only available in New Mail/Article or Edit Mail window.

Decrypting Text

In text mode, the Decrypt text command, removes the encryption and returns the text to readable text. To Decrypt text, do the following:

  1. View the message/article you want to decrypt.
  2. Choose Decrypt from the Message/Article menu.
  3. If you have the correct key in your key list, the message/article is automatically decrypted.
  4. If you do not have the key, the New Key dialog appears. Enter the value for that key. For messages encrypted with a number of different keys, you will be prompted for the value for each key.

    The new key and its value is saved in the key list.

To decrypt just one block of encrypted text, select only that text, then choose Decrypt.

All encrypted messages/articles are saved in the database as encrypted. After decrypting, when you forward the message/article, encrypting is again enforced.

The Decrypt Text command is available in Edit and View message/article windows.

Routing Messages to Others

The Routing Slip feature lets you send a message to a predefined route of addresses in the order you specify. Instead of sending a message to multiple recipients simultaneously, the Routing Slip feature lets you send a message to recipients one after the other. That is, after the message is viewed by a recipient, he or she can choose whether to send it to the next recipient on the routing slip.

Creating and Routing Messages

To create and route a message to others, do the following:

  1. From the main mail window, choose the Create button, or choose the Create command from the Message menu, or CTRL+E. A New Mail window appears.
  2. Choose the Add Routing Slip command from the Message menu. A New Mail-Routing Slip dialog box appears.
  3. Choose the Add Address button to display the Address Book dialog box that contains your address book(s) and their entries. Then, select or type each entry you want to add as a recipient to your routing slip and choose the To button. Choose the OK button to return to the New Mail-Routing Slip dialog box. Notice that all mail recipients are listed and numbered in the Route text box.
  4. To modify the order of recipients, select an address and move it using the arrow buttons to the right of the address list.
  5. If desired, select the Return At End, and/or the Allow Modifications options, and choose the OK button. The name "Routing List" appears in the address textbox.

    The Return At End option sets your address as the last address on the route, thus making the route into a loop. The Allow Modifications option indicates that you allow the recipients to modify the message's text as the message is routed along.

    If desired, you may later edit the route before sending it or deleting it. Do this by displaying the Routing Slip dialog box or by selecting Routing List in the address text box and choosing the Modify or Delete buttons, respectively.

  6. Finish completing your message and choose the Send command from the Message menu, or choose the Send button to mail the message. The newly sent message is placed in the Routing folder.
  7. The status of the routed message is updated as the message moves along from one recipient to the next. Whenever the status is updated, the message is marked as unread. All routed messages are stored by default in the Routing folder.

Viewing Routed Messages

You can view a routed message the same way you view a regular message. Routed messages are stored in the Inbox folder unless otherwise moved by a previously set rule.

When you view a routed message, a new menu named Routing appears in the menu bar. This menu has three options: Route to Next, Information, and Block Route.

The Route to Next option lets you send the message to the next recipient listed in the route and notify the originator of the progress along the route. If the route has the Allow Modifications option set, you may modify the message text by typing in the text area before routing to the next recipient. The original text of the message will be retained, while the new text is available to future recipients.

The Information option lets you display information about the route. The Routing Information dialog box appears containing a list of addresses (if you are a recipient) or the message status (if you are the originator).

The Block Route option lets you stop the message from being routed to any other recipients. The originator of the message is also automatically notified that the routing has stopped.

Deleting Z-Mail™ Pro Messages

To delete one or more messages:

  1. Select the message(s) you want to delete.
  2. Choose the Trash icon or the Delete option from the Message menu.

    The deleted message is automatically transferred to the Trash folder. All messages remain in the Trash folder until you select Empty Trash from the Services menu or until you exit Z-Mail™ Pro (depending on your setting in Preferences).

To delete a folder, refer to the Folders section in Z-Mail™ Pro online help.

To empty the local Trash folder, select Empty Trash from the Services menu. You can also select the Empty trash on exit option from the Preference menu if you want to delete Z-Mail™ Pro in the Trash folder each time you exit Z-Mail™ Pro. To empty a remote Trash folder, select the Trash folder, click the right mouse button, and select Empty.

Retrieving Message Headers

The Smart POP feature lets you retrieve message header information only (subject, date, time, sender) without needing to retrieve the entire message or attachments. This feature applies only to Internet protocols.

Note: The Smart POP feature is considered an advanced Z-Mail™ Pro option and should be used with caution.

Normally, most users want to retrieve their mail messages in their entirety including attachments. However there may be circumstances, during serial dialup for example, when you only want to retrieve the message headers only. This is very convenient for users who do not want to retrieve large messages from the server to their own machine when working remotely.

The Smart POP dialog box has the following options.

Option Description
Retrieve Headers Only for messages over xx KB Lets you retrieve message headers only for messages that are above a certain size. All messages under the stated size are retrieved in their entirety. You can set the maximum message size in the KB text box. (Default is 1024 KB)
Always retrieve headers only Lets you retrieve message header information only from messages on the server. The entire message still resides on the server. If desired, you can later retrieve an entire message by double clicking on the header message icon or by selecting a command from the menu or toolbar that needs the entire message (such as reply or forward).
Always retrieve entire message This is the default setting. Lets you retrieve all messages as you normally do. That is, in their entirety, including attachments.
Do not apply rules to the Header Only messages If selected, your rules will not apply to header only messages, but only to messages that are entirely retrieved.
Confirm before retrieving the entire message If selected, displays a prompt stating that the message resides on the server and it asks you if you want to retrieve the message now. You can also choose not to display the prompt again by selecting the Don't display this prompt again option.

When a message belongs to another Z-Mail™ Pro related application such as Phone Tag or Tag-It!, or is part of a routing slip, then the message is retrieved in its entirety.

Note: If you want to retrieve header only messages at a later date as entire messages, first change the option on the Smart POP tab to Always retrieve entire message, then choose the Refresh from Host command from the Message menu.

Using the Offline Option

Anytime you launch Z-Mail™ Pro, after you have an established account, you will need to enter information into the Z-Mail™ Pro Login dialog box. This dialog box prompts you for your username and password. It also provides you with the Offline option.

The Offline option disables the automatic timers for sending and receiving mail. If you select Offline, you will need to:

  1. Manually retrieve your messages by selecting the Retrieve Messages option from the Mail menu.
  2. Open Outbox and manually send all queued outbound messages.

Suppose you configure your TCP/IP stack to dial on demand and want to work offline before actually sending or retrieving mail. Selecting the Offline option allows you to prepare a batch of e-mail for sending and it will not cause your dial-up connection to be initiated until you explicitly choose to send or retrieve mail.

Search

Search lets you search Z-Mail™ Pro headers and mail messages for specific strings. A string can be a letter, word, or phrase. To search for a specific string in a mail header or message body, do the following:

  1. Choose the Search... command from the Message menu. The Search dialog box appears.
  2. In the Search Condition section enter the following:
    • Left box: Select which field to search for the string: Subject, From field, To field, Sender or Message body.
    • Middle box: Select the determining parameter: Contains, Does not contain, Equals to or Is not equal to.
    • Right box: Enter the string match in the search.
  3. In the Folders to search section, select the folder or folders you want searched. Choose the Select all button if you want all the folders searched.

    Note: On remote servers, only the viewed folder is searched.

  4. In the Options section, select Case sensitive if you want the string you are searching for to be in the exact case you entered. Select Wildcard/Regular Expression if a wildcard symbol is included in your search string.

    Note: When searching in remote folders the 'Case Sensitive' option is checked and disabled and the 'Wildcard/Regular Expression' option is unchecked and disabled

  5. Choose the Go button. A window containing a list of all messages that contain the stated search conditions appears. The date, subject and sender of each message are listed.

    Double click to view the selected message.

Creating Your Personal Address Book(s)

You can access the Address Book by choosing the Address Book... command from the Services menu in Z-Mail™ Pro, or by choosing the Address Book... button located on the Z-Mail™ Pro compose window. The Z-Mail™ Pro compose window appears when you choose the Create... command from the Message menu.

Use the Address Book, which you access from the Services menu, to set up or create your Address Book. This dialog box lets you add individuals to your list, create new groups, and add members to new or existing groups.

Use the Address Book, which you access from the Z-Mail™ Pro compose window (Create command), to add recipients to a message you are about to send. You can add new individuals to your list or add members to an existing group, but you cannot create a new group.

Adding Individuals to an Address Book

To add an individual to an Address Book:

  1. Open the Address Book from the Services menu or the Z-Mail™ Pro compose window and enter the user's name and e-mail address. For example,

    John Doe <john@netmanage.com>
    555-111@mcimail.com
    71234.1234@compuserve.com
    john@[156.27.10.107]

  2. Choose the Add Name command from the Edit menu. The name appears on the list and is automatically added to the Address Book.

Adding Groups to an Address Book

To add a group to the Address Book, do the following:

Note: You can only add a group to the Address Book that you accessed from the Services menu.

  1. Choose the Address Book... from the Services menu.
  2. Open the Address Book you want to add the group to.
  3. Type the group name and then check the Group option.
  4. Choose the Add Name command from the Edit menu.
  5. Select the name or names you want to add as a group members and choose the OK button. The selected names appear in the Group Members list. All group names appear in the Address Book dialog box in square brackets. For example, [groupname].
  6. Select an individual name and choose the Members... command from the Edit menu to see if they belong to a group.

You may rename entries by selecting them and pressing the Rename button. Select one or more entries and press the Delete button to remove them from the Address Book. Addresses are automatically saved when you enter them.

Creating Additional Address Books

You can create a new address book or add additional address books that are stored locally. You can also allow access to an existing address book that resides on a remote host.

To create a new or add another address book:

  1. Open the Address Book from either the Services menu or the Z-Mail™ Pro compose window.
  2. Select the Add Address Book... option from the Address Book menu. The Add Address Book dialog box appears.
  3. Select the location of your address book: Local or Remote.
  4. Name: Enter the name of the new Address Book, this will appear in the Address book list.
  5. File text box: Enter the Address Book's path and filename. You can enter the path directly or use the Browse button to browse for the selected drive and directory. For a new address book, you will be prompted to confirm you want to create a new file.

    Note: Your Address Book filename must use a .ADB extension. For example, the new Address Book called Joe could reside in: C:\NETMANAG\JOE.ADB.

  6. Host (remote): Enter the name of the host in the Host text box. This is where the Address Book you want to access remotely is stored.
  7. Choose the OK button.

You can open the remote Address Book by double clicking on its name in the listbox. The first time you open the book, the application connects to Directory Server, downloads all the addresses, and displays them in the listbox.

These addresses are cached in a local file so you can open the Address Book over and over without having to go through the network. However, if you want to update the Address Book contents from the network, then choose the Update Remote command from the Address Book menu.

Deleting Existing Address Books

You can also delete existing address books by selecting the address book you want to delete, and then selecting the Delete option from the Address Book menu.

ECCO Setup Option

The ECCO Setup option in the Address Book dialog is provided for the convenience of ECCO users. If you have the ECCO software package on your system, you can add e-mail addresses from your ECCO phonebook into one of your Z-Mail™ Pro address books. You can choose to add all the e-mail addresses from your ECCO phonebook or only a selected set of addresses. Do the following:

  1. Open the Address Book from the Services menu and choose the Add New Book... command from the Address Book menu.
  2. Enter the name of your ECCO phonebook as you want it to appear in your Z-Mail® Pro Address Book listings in the Name text box. Enter the path and filename of the ECCO phonebook file in the File text box.
  3. Choose the ECCO Setup...command from the Options menu. The ECCO Setup dialog box is displayed.
  4. Enter the column name from your ECCO Address Book that contains e-mail addresses into the Field Name text box in the ECCO Setup dialog box. The default is E-Mail.

    Note: In releases prior to ECCO 3.0, the column name for e-mail addresses was an optional, user-specified name in the ECCO phonebook. Therefore, the name you enter in the Field Name text box depends on what you named the column in your ECCO phonebook. For example, if the ECCO phonebook column name was E-Mail, then you need to enter E-Mail in the Field Name text box.

  5. In the Criteria drop-down list box, select All to add all the e-mail addresses from your ECCO Address Book to the Z-Mail® Pro Address book. Or scroll to select an alpha character to add only the addresses beginning with that character.

    For example, if you want to include only e-mail addresses beginning with the letter B, select the letter B from the list.

Setting Rules

You can associate attributes to your incoming messages by selecting the Rules... option from the Services menu. For example, you can create a rule so that all messages addressed to you are automatically moved to a specific folder. Or, create a rule so that all messages you receive from a particular person are automatically forwarded to another person.

The following steps show you how to create a rule where all messages whose chosen field contain a specific name or string are automatically moved to specific folder.

  1. Enter the name of the rule in the Rule name: field. In this example, jump is the name of the rule.
  2. Enter the string (single word or several words) you want the system to search for in the String to match: field. In this example, the name Support is the string.
  3. Select the field (From, To, Subject, or Sender) where the string is located. In this example, the name Support would have to appear in the To field.
  4. Select the action you want executed when the matched string is found: Move to Folder, Forward, Delete or Run Script (see online help for information on running scripts). In this example, any message whose To field contains the name Support will be automatically moved to a folder named Urgent.

    If you want to select a folder to which incoming messages are automatically sent, the folder does not have to previously exist. You can define the folder when you make the rule.

  5. Choose the Add button to add the new rule.

The Rules list window, in the left of the dialog box displays all rules. Active rules are marked with an asterisk. Select a rule and chose deactivate or activate ( the button toggles between the two states) to change the status of the rule. The Up and Down buttons allow you to change the positions of rules in the list. If you have more than one rule that contains the identical string to match, then the system will apply the first rule that is listed in the Rules list.

Using Command Line Options

You can use one or any possible combination of the following options to customize your Z-Mail™ Pro login. The options are:

  • -u{username} automatically enters the user's Mailbox name.
  • -p{password} automatically enters the user's Mailbox password
  • -offline enables the Offline option
  • -nologo removes the splash screen (large Mailbox with copyright information) upon startup
  • -noservers launches mail without loading SMTP and POP servers.

To set one or more Z-Mail™ Pro command line options, do the following:

  1. Single-click (highlight) your mail icon. Z-Mail™ Pro can be closed or opened.
  2. From the Program Manager, choose the Properties... command from the File menu. The Program Item Properties dialog box appears.
  3. Enter the option or options at the end of the Command Line text box.

For example, to set up Z-Mail™ Pro so that your username and password are entered automatically, thus bypassing the login box, enter the -p and -u options as follows:

C:\NETMANAG\MAIL.EXE -UJack -Pmypassword

where Jack is the user's mailbox name and mypassword is the user's (Jack) mailbox password.

Note: All options are case insensitive.

If you use the -p option your password will appear in the command line text box, thus making mail less secure.

Sorting the Date, From, Subject and Status Fields

You can sort by the Date, From and Subject fields while viewing the contents of a folder.

  1. Select the folder containing the messages you want to sort.
  2. Double-click in the field above the column of :
    • Date: sorted by either the date the message was sent or received.
    • From: sorted alphabetically to allow you to view all messages sent from a particular sender.
    • Subject: sorted alphabetically to allow you to group messages sent about the same topic.
    • Message icons: sorted by Status

      Message Priority: All messages in the folder are sorted in order of High, Normal, and Low priority.

      Message State: Select this option to sort your messages in order by the following states: marked, header only, unread, and read.

      Message Type: Select this option to sort your messages in order of text messages only and then messages with attachments.

The arrow to the right of the Subject field determines how messages in each field are sorted:

Attaching a Signature

You can design a signature that is automatically attached to the end of each mail message you send out. To create a Z-Mail™ Pro signature, do the following:

  1. From within Z-Mail™ Pro, select the Signature... option from the Settings menu. The Signature... dialog box appears.
  2. Type in your own personal signature that you want to attach to outgoing mail.
  3. If desired, select the Attach to outgoing mail box if you want it automatically attached to every outgoing message.

Changing Your Password

You can change your password at any time. To change your password, do the following:

  1. Select the Password... option from the Settings menu. The Password dialog box appears.
  2. Enter your current password in the Old Password field.
  3. Enter your new password in the New Password field.
  4. Enter your new password again in the Confirm Password field and choose the OK button.

Note: You can change the passwords for all users by logging in as Postmaster and accessing the Mailboxes dialog box.

Setting Timing Parameters

You can specify Retrieve timing parameters by selecting the Timers... option from the Settings menu.

Retrieve time values specify how often mail is retrieved from the mail server. Your Inbox queries the server periodically, as specified by this time value. You can also select the Retrieve Mail option from the Message menu to manually retrieve server mail, if mail is not automatically retrieved.

Using IMAP Transport

IMAP4 is used to manage messages on a remote host. IMAP provides access to multiple hierarchically structured mailboxes on the same or different remote servers and to shared mailboxes between users. Only headers are retrieved, which avoids unnecessary retrieval of large attachments and saves bandwidth. When a message is viewed, it is fetched and stored online in the local cache for the duration of the mail session.

Connecting to an IMAP Server

When you specify Network Settings for your IMAP server, you may select the option to automatically connect to that server when Z-Mail™ Pro is opened.

If you do not select the automatic connection option, you can connect to a Remote IMAP Server as follows:

  1. Select the desired remote server icon, and click the right mouse button to access the drop-down menu commands.
  2. Choose the Connect command to establish a connection with the selected Remote Server. Alternatively, you can connect by double-clicking the server icon in the Remote Folders window.

Configuring IMAP

You may access multiple remote servers, or add numerous occurrences of the same server with different user names. Additional servers are added through the Network Settings dialog. Refer to the previous section Setting Up a New Z-Mail™ Pro account for a User, for detailed information on the Network Settings Dialog.

Each server you add appears as a separate branch on the Remote tree displayed in the left pane of Z-Mail™ Pro's main window. Messages can be moved between folders on the SAME server (same user tree), or to local folders.

Shared Mailboxes

IMAP allows access to shared mailboxes on the remote host. Messages can be accessed by a number of users. Messages are not deleted from the shared mailbox unless they are explicitly deleted by the Delete command.

Mailboxes are shared in one of two ways, depending on the type of server being used.

  • Cyrus types of servers: When you log in, all shared mailboxes are displayed, and private mailboxes are in a sub-folder of the users inbox. The system administrator, by modifying permissions, is responsible for restricting the access to private mailboxes.
  • Washington types of servers: When you log in, only the user's private inbox and tree of private folders. To share mailboxes on this system, additional mailboxes must be added through the IMAP4 tab of Network Settings. Enter the path o the other mailboxes you need to see into the shared mailbox textbox. The mailboxes are displayed in accordance with the permissions the login user has been allocated.

In the Shared Mailbox textbox of the Network Settings dialog box, enter the full UNIX path of the other mailboxes you wish to view. For example, to access shared mailboxes under the user, "lizzie's" account, you specify ~lizzie/. (The mailboxes are displayed and accessible in accordance with the permissions you have been allocated.)

Checking for New Mail

You can check for new mail messages on an IMAP server by doing one of the following:

  • Choose the menu item Message/Retrieve Mail. Choosing this menu item allows you to check for new mail on all the remote servers that are specified in the Network Settings tabs (including all specified IMAP servers, and the POP3 server)
  • Select a remote IMAP connection, then click the right mouse button to access the drop-down menu commands and choose Check New Mail.
  • Double-click any remote INBOX folder to check for new mail in this folder.

Downloading Mail from an IMAP Server

You can copy IMAP folders to your local mail folders, as follows:

  1. When you are connected to the remote server, select a folder from the list.
  2. Click the right mouse button to access the drop-down menu commands, and choose Download.
  3. A dialog is displayed prompting you to select a local mail folder to receive the copied mail. If you specify a folder that does not exist, Z-Mail™ Pro creates a new folder and copies the selected mail into it. You can also use drag-and-drop to select messages from a remote folder and copy them to one of your local mail folders.

Uploading Mail to an IMAP Server

You can copy messages from your local mail folders to one of your personal or shared folders on an IMAP server by using drag-and-drop:

Select the mail message(s) that you want to copy, and drag the highlighted message icons into the desired folder on an IMAP server.

The mail messages are copied rather than moved. If you wish to clear the messages from the local machine after they are copied, simply select and delete them.

Creating Hierarchical Folders

IMAP provides access to multiple, hierarchically structured mailboxes. To create folders on the remote server, do the following:

  1. Connect to a Remote IMAP Server, as described previously.
  2. Select the desired folder within which you wish to create an additional subfolder, and click the right mouse button to access the drop-down menus.
  3. Choose the Create Sub-Folders command to create a sub-folder (a folder within a folder) in the selected remote folder. To create sub-folders on remote Washington style servers, the parent folder name must end with a separator. For example, if you want to create a folder called STAFF and inside this folder have a sub-folder called Tom (without any sub-folders), do the following:
    1. Create a folder called STAFF/.
    2. Inside this folder, create a sub-folder called Tom.
  4. To display the contents of the folder, double-click the folder name from the Folder field in the current window or select the Open... option from the Folder menu.

Note: For remote mailboxes (folders), server permissions will determine if a new mailbox can be created (for example, the user must have write permission).

Preparing to Work with Remote Mail Offline

To view your mail while working offline, you will need to save your remote mail to a local folder. To do this:

  1. Select the remote folder with the mail you want to download.
  2. Click the right button to bring up the pop-up menu and select Download.
  3. Choose the local folder (target destination) in which to place the downloaded mail.

Using Send To...

The Z-Mail™ Pro Send To feature lets you send a selected file to without opening Z-Mail™ Pro or any other program. You may zip and/or encrypt these file attachments. The Send To feature only operates from the Windows NT or Windows 95 File Explorer.

To use the Send To feature:

  1. Open the File Explorer.
  2. Select a file, using the right mouse button. A pop-up menu appears.

  3. Choose the Send To option and select the Z-Mail™ Pro as Attachment from the pop-up menu. This opens the Z-Mail™ Pro SendTo window.
  4. Enter the Z-Mail address in the To field of the dialog box. If you wish, you may select an email address from the Z-Mail Address Book by choosing the Address Book button.

  5. Enter any desired message information in the Body field. Z-Mail™ Pro may be opened from here, if necessary, for message editing.
  6. Choose one of the radio buttons listed. The possible entries are
    • Normal: is the default and immediately sends the file.
    • Encrypted: uses the DES40 algorithm, giving a .NZE file extension.
    • Zipped: zips (compresses) the file into a ZIP format with a .ZIP file extension.
    • Zipped and Encrypted: zips (compresses) the file to a ZIP format then encrypts it, giving a .NZE file extension
    • Zipped with Password: zips the file and prompts you for a password.

    Note: You may zip an encrypted file or encrypt a zipped file before sending it by selecting the file and returning to step 6 in this process.

    Note: If you selected Encrypted or Zipped with Password, a dialog box opens for key selection. The dialog box is the same for either zipped with password or encrypted files. Files that are only zipped are sent immediately.

  7. In the Encryption/Password dialog box select an existing key or choose the New button to make a new key. New keys may be saved for future use.

  8. If you choose the New button, the New Key window appears. Enter a key name in the Name field. Enter a value in the Value field. The longer the value the more effective the key. Choose the OK button to return to the File Encryption window.
  9. Choose the Send button for the file to be sent.

The zipped or encrypted files have the extension of .ZIP if zipped or .NZE if encrypted.

Note: To view a .NZE file you must have Z-Mail™ Pro, release 6.1 or higher. Any mail user may view a zipped with password file by specifying the key value as a password.

Using the Outbox

Anytime you send a message it first goes to the Outbox and then is delivered to the mail gateway, if defined. This includes all messages sent using Z-Mail™ Pro, Tag-It!, Phone Tag, and messages you post using Forum.

The Outbox attempts to deliver a message as soon as it receives it. Messages that remain in the Outbox past a specified amount of time expire and Z-Mail™ Pro messages are returned to the sender as undeliverable. If one of the messaging applications (such as Z-Mail™ Pro, and Forum) was invoked in an Offline mode, the Outbox would accumulate the sent messages until an explicit Send is performed.

Opening the Outbox

You can start Outbox as you do other applications or you can choose the Outbox command from the Services menu.

Using the Messages Menu

The Messages Menu in Outbox lets you view, send, and delete messages in the Outbox. Simply select the desired message and then select either the View, Send, Delete, or Abort options.

You can also use the Pause Sending Message option to stop messages in the Outbox from being sent. This is especially useful if you are using a dialup connection.

For example, before you disconnect you can select this option and the Outbox will not try to send messages. Then, when you reconnect you send your messages again by deselecting this option.

Use the Check Unmatched Message Files... option from the message menu when sent messages fail to arrive to the Outbox. This option manually places the sent messages into the Outbox list.

Z-Mail™ Pro Administration

The Z-Mail™ Pro Administration application allows you to manage your Z-Mail® Pro database. Z-Mail™ Pro Administration is a separate icon that is used exclusively with Mail.

Features include the ability to:

  • merge two mailboxes
  • compact mailbox
  • generate mailbox from message files
  • remove unmatched entries
  • rebuild folder information

Note: For detailed online help information about Z-Mail™ Pro Administration, select theHelp button from within the Z-Mail™ Pro Administration application.

To use Z-Mail™ Pro Administration, do the following:

  1. Quit the Z-Mail™ Pro application if it is open.
  2. Start Z-Mail™ Pro Administration. The Z-Mail™ Pro Mailbox Administration-Login dialog box appears.
  3. Enter the username and password and choose the OK button. The Z-Mail™ Pro Administration window appears. There are five options available:
    • Merge two mailboxes
    • Compact mailbox
    • Generate mailbox from message files
    • Remove unmatched entries
    • Rebuild folder information
  4. Select one of the five options and choose the Start button.

Merge Two Mailboxes

Select this option to merge the messages from any mailbox into the current mailbox. Messages in the source mailbox remain unchanged. All messages are copied into the current user's mail directory, and are added to the current mailbox. The mailboxes (user's .DAT files), in the email/user directory, must have the same name.

Compact Mailbox

Select this to reduce the mail database file size by eliminating empty space in the Mailbox that occurs when you have deleted numerous messages.

Generate Mailbox from Message Files

Select the Generate mailbox from message files to generate or create a new database.

Remove Unmatched Entries

Select the Remove unmatched entries option to remove entries in the mail database that do not have actual message files associated with them.

Rebuild Folder Information

Select the Build Administration folder information option to have the Z-Mail® Pro Administration rebuild the folder hierarchy from the files and directories on the disk. Choosing this will automatically be followed by a Generate to rebuild the mail database.

Note: Z-Mail™ Pro Administration renames the folders, based on the names of the directories on the disk. If desired, you may rename your Z-Mail® Pro folders later. However, this should only be necessary for folder names that could not be used as a DOS directory name.

Additional Online Information

The online help file for Z-Mail™ Pro includes a description of each menu command, plus the following information in the "How to Use" section:

  • Creating and Sending Mail Procedures

Troubleshooting

If you experience difficulties using Z-Mail™ Pro, refer to the following items:

General Information:

  • If you are having trouble starting Z-Mail™ Pro, make sure the path in your mail.cfg file correctly points to your mailbox directory.
  • If you cannot open your mailbox because you forgot your password, then edit the MAIL.CFG file and remove the encrypted password next to your name. For example, if John=fg78%$, then fg78%$ is the encrypted password.
  • Use the Ping application to verify connectivity to the domain portion of any destination address if Z-Mail™ Pro reports a failure to deliver. Verify connectivity to your mail server is defined.
  • Use the logging feature ( form the Settings menu) to help diagnose client transmission and mail server retrieval problems. Check replies for connection errors or destination address errors.
  • Make sure the user name portion of the destination address is defined at the destination. The Postmaster may define new users by using the Mailboxes item under the Services menu.

Internet Mail Information:

  • If you are having trouble retrieving Internet mail, make sure that the remote system supports the SMTP protocol. Verify that the POP2 or POP3 daemons are running on the mail server system. The POP2 known port is 109 and the POP3 port is 110. To verify if the daemons are running, use the Telnet application to connect to ports 109 or 110. The system replies with a message indicating if the correct daemons are running on ports 109 or 110.
  • If you have trouble sending Internet mail, verify that SMTP is available on the remote host, and you have specified the correct mail gateway address under Internet Mail Network. Also verify that the To: field (destination address) is complete. For example, steven@netmanage.com.
  • For POP2 only, you also need to verify that the mail directory settings are correct. Make sure that your password and mail path (/user/spool/mail/username) are correct. Contact your system administrator for more information.

Outbox Information:

  • If you are having trouble sending mail, make sure that the remote system supports the SMTP protocol.
  • If you have trouble sending mail, verify that SMTP is available on the remote host, and you have specified the correct mail gateway address under Network settings.
  • Use the Ping application to verify connectivity to the domain portion of any destination address if Outbox reports a failure to send.

Mail Administration Information:

  • Back up the user's e-mail directory and then do a Generate or Rebuild.
