You need to specify the type of server you want to receive mail with. If you are unsure
about the type of server to choose, ask your system administrator or ISP.
• Select a server type in the Server Type list.
The following represents a list of server types that are available:
Novell GroupWise
Select this option if you connect to Novell GroupWise®. Novell GroupWise
keeps e-mail, calendar, and contact information on the server.
Microsoft Exchange
Available only if you have installed the Connector for Microsoft* Exchange
(package evolution-exchange). It allows you to connect to a Microsoft
Exchange 2000 or 2003 server, which stores e-mail, calendar, and contact
information on the server.
IMAP
Keeps the e-mail on your server so you can access your e-mail from multiple
systems.
POP
Downloads your e-mail to your hard disk for permanent storage, freeing up
space on the e-mail server.
USENET News
Connects to the news server and downloads a list of available news digests.
Local Delivery
Choose this option if you want to move e-mail from the spool (the location
where mail waits for delivery) and store it in your home directory. You need
to provide the path to the mail spool you want to use. If you want to leave
e-mail in your system's spool files, choose the Standard Unix Mbox Spool
option instead.
MH Format Mail Directories
If you download your e-mail using mh or another MH-style program, you
should use this option. You need to provide the path to the mail directory
you want to use.
