The ``New Mail'' Folder

Created by Mahogany the first time you start it, this is a file mailbox which by default receives all new mail. If you mark any folder as incoming, its contents will be checked regularly and any new mail in it moved to the ``New Mail'' folder. If you do not like this name, you can change it in the preferences dialog. Mahogany should in all situations recover from closed connections or disappearing mailboxes, so it is safe to let it run over long periods of time. If a server connection times out, you will receive one or possibly a few error messages but Mahogany will reopen the connection and continue as usual.
