><TT

At this time, SMAP is implemented by the
<A
HREF="http://www.courier-mta.org"
TARGET="_top"
>Courier-IMAP</A
> server.
SMAP offers several improvements over traditional IMAP-based mail accounts,
namely:</P
><P
></P
><UL
><LI
><P
>Names of SMAP folders may use the full UTF-8 character set.
Most IMAP servers restrict certain characters from appearing in names of
folders, due to their special meaning in the IMAP folder hierarchy.</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>Faster downloading of binary attachments.
SMAP requires approximately 25% less bandwidth to download binary
attachments.</P
></LI
><LI
><P
>Consolidated mail transmission.
IMAP clients usually need to transmit a message twice, when mailing it.
An IMAP client must first save the message in the IMAP server's
<SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"Sent Mail"</SPAN
> folder.
Afterwards, the IMAP client needs to send a second copy of the message,
using SMTP, in order to deliver it to the listed recipients.
When using SMAP, <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT
> transmits the message only one time; the server
saves it to the <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"Sent Mail"</SPAN
> folder, then mails it to its
designated recipients.</P
><P
>Of course, <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"

local <B

The easiest way is to highlight an existing folder, then press

This folder is now included in the top-level folder list.
It is important to note that the actual mail folder is not renamed, or
otherwise moved in the mail account, it is only shown as part of the
default top-level folder hierarchy.
The top-level entry for this folder can be thought of as a
<SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"
>"shortcut"</SPAN
> to the folder.
If the original folder is located deep in the mail account's folder hierarchy,
it is no longer necessary to dive deep into the hierarchy each time the
mail account is opened, in order to reach the folder; it's going to be
right there, in the top-level folder hierarchy.</P
><P
>Top-level folders do no appear in their original location in the mail
account's folder hierarchy.
When the folder is first added to the top-level folder list it momentarily
appears twice: in its actual location, on the screen, and at the topmost
level.
After its original hierarchy folder level is closed, it will no longer
appear.
As noted above, the folder is still there, it just appears as a shortcut
at the topmost level.
When the shortcut is removed (see the next section), the folder reappears
in its place.</P
><P
>The second way to create top-level folder shortcuts is to highlight the name
of the mail account with the cursor, then press
<B
CLASS="KEYCAP"
>A</B
> (Add).
<TT

<SPAN

>"<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>Add folder/directory in</TT
>
<VAR
CLASS="REPLACEABLE"
>account</VAR
>"</SPAN
>.
Enter the complete folder name, as used by the mail account's server.
This method for adding top-level folders requires some knowledge of the
folder's location on the mail server.
However it can be used to add folders
that are outside of the currently-configured folder hierarchies
(which is sometimes the case with IMAP servers), as follows:</P
><P
></P
><DIV CLASS="VARIABLELIST"

For Usenet accounts, this process is used to subscribe to a new newsgroup
which does not appear under "All newsgroups".</P
><P
>It is not possible for NetNews (Usenet) readers to maintain a correct,
accurate list of available newsgroups.
Usenet readers must download a list of available newsgroups, which can be
quite large and require a significant time to download.
It's not feasible to do this every time.
As such, Usenet readers keep a saved copy of the download newsgroup list.
Upon request, the newsgroup list may be downloaded again, and the locally
saved list is brought up to date.
This is what "Refresh newsgroup list" does.</P
><P
>"Check for new newsgroups" is a partial solution that's supported by most
Usenet news servers, and can usually do the trick and download recently
added newsgroups.
There's no way to remove newsgroups no longer carried by the server, except
by using "Refresh newsgroup list", but at least "Check for new newsgroups"
will do the trick and include new groups under "All newsgroups", so that they
can be subscribed to.</P
><P
>However, sometimes "Refresh newsgroup list" might not work with some oddball
news server, or the news server can accidentally lose its wits and "forget"
which new newsgroups were added, recently.
In any case, use
the process for creating a top-level folder in order to manually subscribe
to a newsgroup.
Type in the newsgroup's name, carefully checking for the correct spelling.
After creating a link, open it and the newsgroup will now be subscribed to,
and it will now appear under "Subscribed newsgroups".</P

>Thread watching is designed primarily to be used with NetNews newsgroups.
The mechanism by which replies are selected for watching is quick, and simple.
NetNews messages typically carry robust threading metadata,
and even if there's a NetNews hiccup, and messages come in out of order,
all eligible replies should
still be correctly selected for watching.
There is a very small chance that a very severe NetNews
disruption will result in a failure to catch watched
replies.
However, messages would probably come in so wildly out of sequence that the
thread is not likely to remain readable even if all watched replies were
properly tagged, whenever they arrive.</P
><P
>Thread watching is not limited to NetNews newsgroups.
E-mail threads may also be selected for watching.
However, E-mail messages tend to have far less threading metadata than their
NetNews counterparts.
A disruption in incoming E-mail is more likely to result in missed replies,
than a NetNews disruption.
However, E-mail disruptions, on average, tend to occur far less often than
NetNews disruptions, so everything tends to come out even.</P
><P
>Additionally, many modern E-mail clients now include the same
full threading metadata as NetNews clients (<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"

threading metadata with every outgoing message, NetNews or E-mail).

>The semantics of checking for new mail varies slightly, depending on the
mail account.
With SMAP-based mail account, and with most IMAP mail accounts, new mail in
the current folder is shown immediately.
If messages in the folder are shown in the order they were added to the folder,
new mail will naturally appear at the end of folder.
If messages are shown in a different sorting order, new messages will be
shown wherever they should appear in accordance with the current sort
order.
Most IMAP mail accounts show new mail as soon as it is received.
Some IMAP mail accounts do not report new mail immediately after it is
delivered to the mail folder (this depends on the IMAP server software).
<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT
> checks for new mail at regular intervals, and new received messages
will show up after the next check for new mail.</P
><P
>New mail delivered to a local mbox folder will usually be shown when
<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT
> checks for new mail, at regularly-scheduled intervals.
New mail delivered to a local maildir will also usually appear only after
<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT
> checks for new mail.
On most Linux and SGI systems, and on any other system that has the File
Access Monitor daemon running, new mail will be reported immediately.</P
><P
>In all cases, move to the last message in the folder, and use the
cursor down key to have <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"

New mail in a POP3 folder will only be shown after an explicit
new mail check (<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT

itself).</P
><P
>In all cases, new mail will not be immediately shown after the folder
index screen is closed.
When the folder index
screen is closed, the mail folder still remains <SPAN
CLASS="QUOTE"

until <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT
> opens another folder in the same mail account.
<TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"

applications.
When <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"

folder, at the same time.</P
><P
>Generally speaking, new mail delivered to the folder, while it's opened by
<TT

>, is one example of concurrent changes to the contents of the folder
while it is opened.  Other applications may make other kinds of
changes to the folder's contents: changing a message's status
(whether the message is unread, deleted, replied, tagged, and/or flagged);
or removing a message from the folder.
In general, changes by other applications are reported in the
same manner that <TT

If <TT
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>Cone</TT

report other kinds of changes to the folder's contents as soon as they occur.

>Efficient searching is implemented for local mail, and IMAP/SMAP
mailboxes only.
NetNews servers' searching capabilities are very limited, and POP3 servers
have no search facilities whatsoever.
In all cases, searching for message status flags is supported, since
message status flags are always cached locally.</P
><P
>Only message headers of NetNews folders may be searched, and only English
characters can be used as a search string.
Some older NetNews servers may not have any searching ability whatsoever.
Searching of message contents is not supported.
Searching by message size, or message's date is not supported either.</P
><P
>Searching of POP3 folders is also not very efficient, although the search
text is not limited to English characters only.
POP3 folder search is accomplished by downloading the complete headers of
each message, and searching it manually.
Downloaded headers are not cached.
The headers are also downloaded when searching by message's date.
Searching by message size, or message's date is not supported for POP3
folders.</P
