This tab contains controls
to modify the way Webmail Retriever for msn sends mail through msn.
Save sent mail in "Sent Items" folder.
If this option is checked,
then every time you send a message through msn the message will be
added to the "Sent Items" folder in your msn account.
This means that if you log on to msn using a web browser (e.g. Netscape/Internet
Explorer) the message will appear there.
This is a way to access sent messages when you are away from your computer.
Normally sent messages will appear in the "Sent Items" folder
of your email program as well, so you should only use this if you want
to access these items from a different computer.
Messages in the Sent
Items folder do take up space in your account so you might want to leave
this option off, especially if you are sending large emails or attachments.
Listen on port:
In order for Webmail Retriever for msn to act
as a server, it must open a port for your email program to connect to.
This box allows you to change what port Webmail Retriever for msn will listen to.
The default value is port 25. Unless this port conflicts with another
port it is recommended that you leave it at 25.
When Webmail Retriever for msn starts up for
the first time it will search for an open port starting with port 25.
After that, each time you open Webmail Retriever for msn it will try to reopen the last
port it was told to use.
If for any reason it cannot open the requested port it will warn you.
If you have ZoneAlarm or some other personal firewall installed you must
allow Webmail Retriever for msn to act as a server by granting it access to port 25.
If you are using Windows XP is recommended that you re-enable port 25
which is blocked by default.
Do not accept connections from other computers.
If this option is checked then
Webmail Retriever for msn will not accept connections from any computer but your own.
Normally there is no need for anyone else to use your copy of Webmail Retriever for msn
to send mail through msn. It is therefor recommended that you leave
this option checked.
