<p>Mail est le visonneur et l'éditeur de courriel par défaut de Haiku. Il ne fait pas lui même ni l'envoie ni la réception de courriel, dont mail_daemon s'occupe et qui peut être configuré par <ahref="../preferences/e-mail.html">E-mail</a>.</p>
<p>Cette article est une vue d'ensemble de l'application Mail. L'<ahref="../workshop-email.html">Atelier : Gérer son courrier</a> contient plus d'information sur le fonctionnement du courriel dans Haiku.</p>
<p>Un menu et une barre d’outils éventuelle en haut, avec une zone contenant les attributs intéressants du courriel (À, De, Objet, Date) en dessous et le corps du message. Si le message contient des caractères étranges ou apparaît vide, essayez de changer le <spanclass="menu">Décodage</span> depuis le menu déroulant.</p>
<p>Lorsqu’il y a des pièces jointes au courriel, elles sont listée à la fin du message. Un menu déroulant s’ouvre avec un clic-droit sur l’une d’elles qui propose d’<spanclass="menu">Enregistrer le fichier joint…</span> ou d’<spanclass="menu">Ouvrir le fichier joint</span>. Vous pouvez aussi le glisser-déposer sur le bureau ou une fenêtre du Tracker.</p>
<p>Lorsque vous fermez la fenêtre d’un nouveau courriel, son statut est normallement changé de « New » (nouveau) à « Read » (lu). Mais vous pouvez aussi utiliser d’autres statuts en le choisissant dans le sous-menu <spanclass="menu">Close and...</span>. Vous trouverez aussi l’option <spanclass="menu">Set to...</span> pour créer votre propre statut qui sera enregistré dans <spanclass="path">~/config/settings/Mail/status/</span>.</p>
<p>Vous trouverez un élément pour modifier les préférences de Mail (<spanclass="menu">Preferences...</span>) (<ahref="#preferences">voir plus bas</a>) et un raccourci pour gérer vos comptes (<spanclass="menu">Accounts...</span>) qui ouvrira la fenêtre des préférences de <ahref="../preferences/e-mail.html">E-mail</a>.</p>

<p>The items to <spanclass="menu">Forward</span>, <spanclass="menu">Resend</span> and <spanclass="menu">Copy to new</span> are again pretty self-explaining.</p>
<p>When you've opened an email from a Tracker or query result window, <spanclass="menu">Previous message</span> and <spanclass="menu">Next message</span> will move to the previous/next email in the list.</p>
<p><spanclass="menu">Save address</span> collects all email addresses from the header and the actual email body in a submenu. Choosing an address will open the <ahref="people.html">People</a> application in order to complete and save the contact information.</p>
<p>This menu holds queries that show all mails related to the currently open mail. Selecting <spanclass="menu">Same recipient</span>, <spanclass="menu">Same sender</span> or <spanclass="menu">Same subject</span> opens a query that lists all corresponding mails:</p>
<p>A new email is created by invoking the <spanclass="menu">New mail message</span> menu or the corresponding icon from the tool bar of an open email. Or you just start the Mail application or choose <spanclass="menu">Create new message...</span> from the context menu of the mailbox icon in the Deskbar.</p>
<p>The window is pretty similar to the one when reading mails. The menu and tool bar items are slightly different and the text boxes have to be filled with the recipient's email address, subject and so on, of course.</p>
<p><spanclass="menu">Cc</span> is short for the anachronistic term "<i>carbon copy</i>" and results in copies of your mail being sent to the listed people. The difference to just listing a buch of addresses in the "To" field is, that you don't directly address the cc'ed people, thereby signaling that you probably don't expect an answer of them.<br/>
<spanclass="menu">Bcc</span> means "<i>blind carbon copy</i>" which does practically the same as "Cc", but hides the recipients from each other.</p>
<p>You can enter several recipients by separating their addresses with a comma.
<spanclass="menu">To</span>, <spanclass="menu">CC</span>, and <spanclass="menu">BCC</span> are pop-up menus. They contain all email addresses on your system found by a query for <ahref="people.html">People</a> files. Their "Group" attribute will sort them in corresponding submenus.</p>
<p>With <spanclass="menu">Save as draft</span> you can store your work so far and come back to it later. To load it again, choose it from the <spanclass="menu">Open draft</span> submenu that will list the result of a query for all mails with the status "Draft".</p>
<p><spanclass="menu">Increase</span> and <spanclass="menu">Decrease quote level</span> or their respective shortcuts <spanclass="key">ALT</span><spanclass="key"></span> / <spanclass="key">-</span> are used to add/remove a level of quoting by adjusting the number of ">" symbols in front of quoted lines. Just select some text in all the lines you want un/quoted and invoke the menu item.</p>
<p><spanclass="menu">Check spelling</span> currently only offers corrections of English texts by marking wrong or unknown words red and showing them in italic.
Right-clicking such a word opens a context menu offering suggestions to correct the word or to <spanclass="menu">Add</span> it to the accepted vocabulary.</p>
<p>Then, there are again the items to open Mail's <spanclass="menu">Preferences...</span> (<ahref="#preferences">see below</a>) and a shortcut to managing your <spanclass="menu">Accounts...</span>, which will open the <ahref="../preferences/e-mail.html">E-mail</a> preference panel.</p>
<p>With <spanclass="menu">Add signature</span> you can add predefined texts to the end of your mail. From its submenu you can choose a specific or <spanclass="menu">Random</span> one.</p>
<p>You create new or edit existing signatures with <spanclass="menu">Edit signatures...</span>, which will open a window where you enter the text itself and the title of your new sig. There, in the <spanclass="menu">Signature</span> menu, you find items to <spanclass="menu">Open</span> a specific signature or <spanclass="menu">Save</span> or <spanclass="menu">Delete</span> the currently loaded one, Signatures should be saved in <spanclass="path">~/config/settings/Mail/signatures</span>.</p>
<p>Use <spanclass="menu">Add enclosure...</span> and <spanclass="menu">Remove enclosure</span> to add/remove files as attachments. You can also drag & drop files from a Tracker window. Be careful though to drop those in the header section (To/From/Subject area at the top) or they'll get pasted into the email body if they are text files.</p>
<p>Les fichiers joints sont listés sous la section d'entête. Vous pouvez retirer un mail en invoquant le menu contextuel ou en le sélectionnant avant de presser la touche <spanclass="key">Suppr</span>.</p>
<p>This doesn't work yet, but is intended to hold queries that would show all mail related to the currently open mail, like all to the same recipient or same subject/thread.</p>

<tr><td><spanclass="menu">Attach attributes</span></td><td></td><td>You can choose to send BFS' attributes of a file alongside the attachments.

Should you opt not to send attributes with your attachments, remember zip up your files before you send them or you'll strip away BFS attributes.</td></tr>
