Getting started

When you start Mahogany for the first time, it will present you with a rather lengthy configuration dialog where you can configure all kinds of more or less useful options. Don't be afraid of it - just make sure that the main points, notably the settings on the Identity (1.7.2) and Network () page are correct and ignore the rest for now. The defaults should be suitable for most situations.

The main window will then show you a tree of folders (1.4.2) on the left and a view of the currently selected folder (1.4.4) to the right of it. By default, you will find a small number of folders that Mahogany sets up for you, usually these are ``INBOX'', ``SentMail'' and ``New Mail''. So, what are they?
