Hello,
I'm new to the Horde mail application and I can't seem to figure out
how to
change a particular setting. I want my incoming mail to automatically
download and show messages and content in the preview window, but I
can't
figure out how to do this. The current setting will only show simple
text.
Anything more sophisticated than this must be downloaded before it is
displayed in a different window.
Is this the current standard? Is there a way to display incoming
messages
in the manner I'd like it to? Any help is much appreciated!
I'm going to assume that you mean you want to view your email as HTML
when available, instead of just plain text.
This could be two different settings that need to be changed. One must
be done by someone with administrative access to the Horde server, the
other is a setting the user can change.
If this is not *your* server, which I'm guessing it's not, but rather
your host's, then they need to enable inline html in IMP's configuration
if it's not already. This is off by default because HTML email is
generally a bad idea. Among other things, it can be considered a
security threat.
If this is already enabled, then you need to set your preferences to
show it by default. This is done in Preferences -> Mail -> Viewing (must
enable "advanced preferences") -> "For messages with alternative
representations of a text part, which part should be displayed?" If
you do enable this, you should at least block loading images
automatically by default (the next preference down).
