Minimal Headers Only— If selected, only a limited set of message headers is down- loaded for each incoming message. The message’s status, From: field, date/time, server status, and subject are initially retrieved. Typically, you will see an open diamond for the server status, which indicates a partial retrieval. Opening or previewing the message retrieves the message body. If you have a non-text attach- ment, then opening it will retrieve the attachments.

Full message except attachments over _ K— If this setting is selected and a number is entered in the edit box, any attachments larger than the specified size will not be downloaded with the message. If the setting is zero (default), all attachments are downloaded, regardless of size.

Authentication style— This specifies which IMAP account authentication technology to use for this personality: Passwords, Kerberos, or CRAM-MD5. Ask your email adminis- trator which one to use. The default is CRAM-MD5. If CRAM-MD5 is not being used, then it will use passwords.
