-Here you can find some brief guidelines about setting your e-mail clients.\\
-===== OUTLOOK EXPRESS =====

-[[services:e-mail_service:e-mail_clients:outlook_express:configuration|SISSA e-mail services using Outlook Express ]]
-----

-===== Mail on Mac (leopard) =====
-To use SISSA e-mail services using Mail on Mac (leopard), please read the instructions on the page:\\
-[[services:e-mail_service:e-mail_clients:mac-mail:leopard:configuration-leopard|SISSA e-mail services using Mail on Mac (leopard)]]
-----
-===== ALPINE USERS =====
-Alpine will be forced to read e-mail using IMAP. So the first time alpine will ask you //**your SISSA username**// and //**your SISSA password**// and if you wish to "Preserve password on DISK for next login?" answer  "**Y**"  if you want to save it (encrypted) so you will not have to enter your password anymore using Alpine. Your password, encrypted, will be put in the file **.alpine.passfile** in your home directory.
-Since [[http://alpine.x10host.com/alpine/info/alpine.html|Alpine 2.10]], a personal SMIME certificate is used to [[http://alpine.x10host.com/alpine/info/encryptpwd.html|encrypt the password file]]. Alpine will ask the user to create a ''master password'', which will unlock access to the password file in future access during the same Alpine session.
-To avoid being asked to enter the ''master password'' every time you start Alpine, while not recommended, you can create a SMIME certificate without any private key's password:
-<code>
-mkdir -p $HOME/.alpine-smime/public $HOME/.alpine-smime/.pwd $HOME/.alpine-smime/private $HOME/.alpine-smime/ca
-openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout $HOME/.alpine-smime/.pwd/MasterPassword.key -out $HOME/.alpine-smime/.pwd/MasterPassword.crt -days 10000 -nodes -subj "/C=IT/ST=Friuli Venezia Giulia/L=Trieste/O=SISSA/CN=$USER/emailAddress=${USER}@sissa.it"
-touch $HOME/.alpine.passfile
-</code>
-\\
-=== To see the e-mails in a folder: ===
-    * select the folder using the arrows (for example   //Sent// );
-    * type **<ENTER>**.
-=== To see the contents of hierarchical folders: ===
-   * select the folder using the arrows (for example //pippo[.]//);
-   * type " **>** " (and NOT **<ENTER>** !!!);
-   * then you can see the e-mails inside it and its sub-folders names.
- To return to a higher level folder press the  " **<** " key.
-\\
-=== To create new folders: ===
-   * type " **L** " (ListFldrs) then  type " **a** " (add);
-   * alpine will ask you the **//new_foldername//**.
-If you now want a new sub-folder inside an existing folder (for example //pluto//), you have to type //pluto.newsubfoldername//\\
-\\
-Do not try to move a lot of e-mails (or a folder or a subfolder) using alpine, because you can move one e-mail at a time.\\
-We suggest to use a grafic e-mail client (such as thuderbird, mozilla-mail....it depends on the software
-installed in your pc).\\
-Using drag&drop (with the mouse) you can move the selected subfolder where do you prefer and it easy to move
-a group of selected mails in another place. \\

-===To display/hide the complete header===
-To display/hide the complete header of an e-mail press " **h** ".\\
