Setting preferences
You can customize how FirstClass behaves in a number of ways. For example, you can change default fonts, apply background pictures to forms, connect to a particular window, and create an automatic reply for mail.
To change a preference:
1 Choose Edit > Preferences.
 Mac OS XChoose FirstClass > Preferences.
2 Click the tab on the Preferences form that contains the preference you want to change.
3 Make the change.
To change a preference without closing the Preferences form, click Apply.
To reset all preferences to the FirstClass defaults, click Default.
 CautionWhen you click Default, all your preferences will be reset, not just the ones showing on the visible tab.
Changing your client's time zone
By default, your client displays dates and times in the same time zone as your server. It does not use the time clock on your computer.
If you are in a different time zone than your server, you will need to adjust your client's time zone so that dates and times display in your local time. To do this, choose the appropriate time zone at "Time zone" in your viewing preferences. Make sure you choose the time zone that applies to your exact location.
NoteFirstClass automatically adjusts for standard and daylight savings times.
Making FirstClass your default mail client
By default, FirstClass is not used to send and receive Internet mail; it is kept separate from your Internet connection. If you make FirstClass your default mail client, FirstClass:
• sends and receives Internet mail
• can use mailto links.
To make FirstClass your default mail client, select "Register FirstClass® as default mail client" in your general preferences.
Mac OS XIf you don't see this field, you must choose your default mail application through the Mac OS X system preferences.
Reverting to your browser's mail client
If you made FirstClass your default mail client, but now want to use your web browser instead, start up your browser, then make it your mail default.
Customizing how FirstClass looks on your web browser
You can specify how FirstClass will look, and the features available to you, when you use a web browser to connect to your server. This only affects your own view.
NoteYour administrator determines the appearance and features that will be available to web browsers. Depending on what your administrator has made available, your choices may not work.
To customize FirstClass on your web browser, update your FirstClass web preferences.
