Many commands are accessible with\nthe keyboard like the Emacs-based mailers such as Mew and Wanderlust.\nSo you will be able to migrate to Sylpheed without much discomfort, even if\nyou are accustomed to other mailers.\n\nThe messages are managed by MH format, and you will be able to use it together\nwith another mailer based on MH format (like Mew). It has less possibility\nof losing mails on failures since one file corresponds to one mail. You can\nimport or export mbox and eml format messages. You can also utilize fetchmail\nand/or procmail, and external programs on receiving (like inc or imget).\n\nCurrently implemented major features\n====================================\n\nSupported protocols\n\n\to POP3\n\to IMAP4rev1\n\to SMTP\n\to NNTP\n\to SSL/TLSv1 (POP3, SMTP, IMAP4rev1, NNTP)\n\to IPv6\n\to SOCKS4/5\n\nFeatures\n\n\to multiple accounts\n\to powerful filtering (POP3, IMAP4, local spool)\n\to powerful search (query search, quick search, search folder)\n\to Junk mail control\n\to plug-in faculty\n\to thread display\n\to display and transfer of attachments by MIME\n\to inline image display\n\to News reader\n\to SMTP AUTH support (PLAIN / LOGIN / CRAM-MD5)\n\to CRAM-MD5 authentication (SMTP AUTH / IMAP4rev1)\n\to APOP authentication (POP3)\n\to PGP signature / encryption (requires GPGME)\n\to spell checking (requires GtkSpell)\n\to SOCKS4/5 proxy support\n\to X-Face display\n\to user-defined headers\n\to mark / color label\n\to Mew/Wanderlust compatible key bind\n\to multiple MH folder support\n\to mbox and eml import / export\n\to action function to work with external commands\n\to external editor\n\to message queueing\n\to automatic mail checking\n\to draft message\n\to template\n\to line-wrapping\n\to autosave\n\to clickable URI\n\to address book\n\to newly arrived and unread message management\n\to printing\n\to POP3 remote mailbox\n\to offline mode\n\to tray icon (minimize to tray icon, new mail notification)\n\to customization of toolbar\n\to remote operation by command line\n\to per-folder configuration\n\to LDAP, vCard, and JPilot support in address book\n\to CSV, LDIF file import in address book\n\to auto-registration of recipient's addresses to address book\n\to auto-completion of addresses\n\to Drag \u0026 Drop\n\to autoconf, automake support\n\to internationalization of messages by gettext\n\to m17n (multilingualization) support\n\nand more.\n\nInstallation\n============\n\nSee INSTALL for installation instructions.\n\nUsage\n=====\n\nPreparation before running\n--------------------------\n\nIf you are using a character encoding other than UTF-8 for filename,\nyou must set the following environmental variable (it will not work if\nit is not specified):\n\n(use locale-specific encoding)\n% export G_FILENAME_ENCODING=@locale\n\nor\n\n(manually specifying encoding)\n% export G_FILENAME_ENCODING=ISO-8859-1\n\nIf you want to display messages translated to your language,\nyou must specify some environmental variables related to locale.\nFor example:\n\n% export LANG=de_DE.UTF-8\n\n(replace de_DE.UTF-8 to the actual locale name)\n\nIf you don't want translated messages, set LC_MESSAGES to \"C\"\n(and unset LC_ALL if specified).\n\nHow to run\n----------\n\nInput `sylpheed' on a command line, or double-click the icon in a file\nmanager to execute.\n\nInitial startup\n---------------\n\nWhen Sylpheed is executed for the first time, it automatically creates the\nconfiguration files under ~/.sylpheed-2.0/, and asks you the location of\nmailbox. The default is ~/Mail. If some files, which are non-MH format,\nalready exist on the directory, you will have to specify another location.\n\nIf ~/.sylpheed-2.0/ doesn't exist, but the previous version of configuration\nexists in ~/.sylpheed/, migration will be made automatically after the\nconfirmation.\n\nIf the locale encoding is not UTF-8 and the environmental variable\nG_FILENAME_ENCODING is not set, an alert dialog will be displayed.\n\nRequired settings\n-----------------\n\nInitially, you have to create at least one account to send or receive\nmessages (you can read messages that already exist without creating\naccounts). The configuration dialog will be shown by clicking\n\"Configuration -\u003e Create new account...\" in the menu, or \"Account\" on\nthe toolbar. Then, fill the required settings.\n\nRefer to the manual supplied with this program for the general usage.\n\nHidden settings\n---------------\n\nYou can configure most of the features in Sylpheed through the preferences\ndialog, but there are a few parameters which don't have user interface\n(you don't need to modify them in normal use). You must edit\n~/.sylpheed-2.0/sylpheedrc by an editor while Sylpheed is not running.\n\nallow_jisx0201_kana\t\tallow JIS X 0201 Kana (half-width kana) on\n\t\t\t\tsending\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 0]\ntranslate_header\t\ttranslate headers such as 'From:', 'To:' and\n\t\t\t\t'Subject:'\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 1]\nenable_rules_hint\t\tenable alternating row colors for summary view\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 1]\nbold_unread\t\t\tshow unread messages using bold font in\n\t\t\t\tsummary view\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 1]\ntextview_cursor_visible\t\tshow cursor in the text view\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 0]\nmime_image_viewer\t\tspecify the command to open attached image\n\t\t\t\tfiles [default: none]\nmime_audio_player\t\tspecify the command to open attached audio\n\t\t\t\tfiles [default: none]\nmime_command\t\t\tspecify the command to open MIME attachments\n\t\t\t\t[default: none]\nlogwindow_line_limit\t\tspecify the limit of line numbers of log\n\t\t\t\twindow\n\t\t\t\t0: unlimited  n (\u003e 0): n lines [default: 1000]\nmark_as_read_on_new_window\tonly mark messages as read when they are\n\t\t\t\topened with new window\n\t\t\t\t0: off  1: on   [default: 0]\n\nUnlike 1.0.x, this version doesn't allow direct modification of the menu\nshortcuts by default. You can use the following methods to configure them:\n\n1. Using GNOME 2.8 or later\n   Run gconf-editor from 'Applications - System Tools - Configuration Editor'.\n   Select 'desktop - gnome - interface' and check 'can-change-accels' in it.\n\n2. Using GNOME before 2.8, or other environments\n   Add gtk-can-change-accels = 1 to the file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 (or create a new\n   one, if it doesn't exist).\n\n3.
