13 | Can I use multiple names from the address book? |
14 | </title> |
15 | <description> |
16 | <p> |
17 | Yes. The address book search will display all matches for the |
18 | search criteria entered in the search box. If 10 names are displayed |

28 | Can I add names directly to the address book from a email? |
29 | </title> |
30 | <description> |
31 | <p> |
32 | No. At this time you cannot add names directly from a received email |
33 | to the address book. You can, however, right click on the address and |
34 | save it to the clipboard and paste this into the address book. Try |
35 | not to be disappointed. SquirrelMail is under continual development |
36 | and this might be included in the future in one form or another. |

55 | What is webmail? |
56 | </title> |
57 | <description> |
58 | <p> |
59 | In SquirrelMail's case it gives you access through the IMAP protocol |
5572cae2 |
60 | to your email account. This means that you don't have to figure out how |
384c5b78 |
61 | to setup someone else's stuff just to check your mail. |

68 | Where can I use this webmail? |
69 | </title> |
70 | <description> |
71 | <p> |
72 | Any where there is a browser available. |
73 | Wireless access (WAP/WML) is not on the drawing board at this time though. |

80 | Why use webmail instead of a regular email client? |
81 | </title> |
82 | <description> |
83 | <p> |
84 | It is doubtful that webmail will ever be a complete substitute for |
85 | a regular email client. But hey, who knows? Anyway, If you ever |
c6a60b3f |
86 | were at a friend's house, on a trip, at home or work and away from |
384c5b78 |
87 | your computer and wanted to check your mail you already know why. |
88 | Because it is a huge hassle to set your mail up on their computer |
89 | and then delete it again. SquirrelMail is designed to be a supplement |
90 | to your normal email client. |

97 | How does this stuff work? |
98 | </title> |
99 | <description> |
100 | <p> |
101 | SquirrelMail uses the IMAP protocol, info on it can be found |
6fd95361 |
102 | <a href="http://imap.org"/>here</a>. The program also uses |
238d4cfc |
103 | its own IMAP functions, not those built in to PHP. This won't |
384c5b78 |
104 | matter to anybody except those responsible for installing it, |
105 | but trust us when we say they appreciate it. |
