Environment Options: General

The General options determine such settings as the refresh interval for new messages, whether users can create shared folders and address books, and which types of accounts can be used while in Online mode.

Figure 69-1 Environment Options Dialog Box with the General tab Open

Refresh Interval

Determine how often the GroupWise client lists will be updated to reflect new message status. The default is 1 minute.

Allow Shared Folder Creation

Enables users to share folders with other users. By default, this option is enabled.

Allow Shared Address Book Creation

Enables users to share address books with other users. By default, this option is enabled.

Check Spelling As You Type

Automatically spell checks as text is typed. By default, this option is enabled.

Check Spelling Before Send

Automatically spell checks the message text of each item before the item is sent. By default, this option is disabled.

Show Messenger Presence

Displays the Messenger presence information in the GroupWise Windows client. Messenger presence enables users to easily choose instant messaging as an alternative to e-mail. Messenger presence icons appear in the From field of a received message, in the Quick Info for users specified in the To, CC, and BC fields of a new message, and in the Quick Info for users in the Address Book. Messenger presence is enabled by default.

Allow Use of POP and IMAP Accounts in the Online Mailbox

Select this option to enable users to access POP and IMAP accounts while using the GroupWise client in Online mode.

By default, this option is disabled. If you enable this option, an Accounts menu is added to the GroupWise client, allowing users to add POP and IMAP accounts to GroupWise, set account properties, and send and retrieve items from their POP and IMAP accounts. In addition, users are allowed to upload POP and IMAP items from the Remote mailbox to the Online mailbox.

IMAP Copy Results in a GroupWise Move

By default, when you move an item from one folder to another in an IMAP e-mail client, the IMAP e-mail client creates a copy of the item in the new location and marks the original item for deletion. The IMAP e-mail client might display the original item with strikeout markup, to indicate that it will be deleted according to the cleanup schedule you have selected, or the IMAP e-mail client might hide such items until they are automatically cleaned up. When this IMAP behavior synchronizes to your GroupWise mailbox, GroupWise by default displays the original items with the strikeout markup, and you might have been manually deleting those items from your GroupWise mailbox. Select this option so that items with strikeout markup no longer display in GroupWise.

Allow Use of News (NNTP) Accounts in the Online Mailbox

Select this option to enable users to set up newsgroup (NNTP) accounts while using the GroupWise client in Online mode.

Environment Options: Client Access

The Client Access options allow you to apply a license type (full or limited) to users’ mailboxes and enable or disable the Remote and Caching modes in the GroupWise client for Windows.

Figure 69-2 Environment Options Dialog Box with the Client Access Tab Open

Client Licensing

GroupWise offers two types of mailbox licenses: full client mailbox licenses and limited client mailbox licenses.

A full client mailbox license has no mailbox access restrictions; the mailbox can be accessed by any GroupWise client (Windows or WebAccess) as well as any third-party plug-in or POP/IMAP client.

A limited client mailbox license restricts mailbox access to the following:

The GroupWise WebAccess client (including wireless devices)
A GroupWise client (Windows or WebAccess) via the Proxy feature
A GroupWise client (Windows or WebAccess) via the Busy Search feature
A POP or IMAP client

A limited client license mailbox does not allow access through the GroupWise client for Windows (other than via Proxy or Busy Search).

You can use this option to specify the type of client license that you want applied to users’ mailboxes. This enables you to support the type of GroupWise mailbox licenses you purchase. For example, if you only purchased limited client license mailboxes for users on a specific post office, you can mark all mailboxes on that post office as being limited client license mailboxes.

For information about generating an audit report that shows the type of license applied to each mailbox in a post office, see Section 12.4, Auditing Mailbox License Usage in the Post Office.

Client Login Mode

Choose from the following settings to determine which login modes are available to GroupWise users when using the GroupWise client for Windows. These settings apply only if you selected Full License Mailboxes for the client licensing.

Allow Use of Remote Mode: Select this option to enable users to log in with GroupWise in Remote mode. With Remote mode, the GroupWise client uses a Remote mailbox on the user’s local drive. The user must initiate a connection (modem, direct, or TCP/IP) to send or retrieve items from the GroupWise system. For more information about Remote mode, see Section 68.1.3, Remote Mode. By default, this option is enabled.

NOTE:Remote Mode is not available in the Linux/Mac client.
Allow Use of Caching Mode: Select this option to enable users to log in with GroupWise in Caching mode. With Caching mode, the GroupWise client uses a Caching mailbox on the user’s local drive (this can be the same mailbox as the Remote mailbox). The GroupWise client periodically initiates a connection with the GroupWise system to send and receive items. For more information about Caching mode, see Section 68.1.2, Caching Mode. By default, this option is enabled.

Select the Force Caching Mode option (available only if the Allow Use of Caching Mode option is enabled) to force users to run in Caching mode. By default, this option is disabled. Specify the number of days before Caching mode is enforced. This allows the user to continue using Online mode until the grace period has passed. The grace period begins the first time the user connects to the POA. The setting applies per user per workstation.

The Force Caching Mode setting is not enforced on a workstation that does not have enough disk space for a Caching mailbox. The amount of disk space that is required is: the size of the mailbox + 20 MB + 25% of the mailbox size.

The Force Caching Mode setting is also not enforced when a user connects from a shared Windows workstation or terminal server if you configure these workstations to be excluded. You do this by setting a registry key on the Windows workstation. The registry key is in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Under Software\\Novell\\GroupWise\\Client, add a dword value named No Local Store with a value of 1. This prevents the user from creating a Caching or Remote mailbox by using the GroupWise Windows client menus. However, the user can still create a Caching or Remote mailbox by using the startup switches /pc, /pr, or /ps.
By Default, Show Login Mode Drop-Down List on Client Toolbar: Select this option to have the Login Mode drop-down list displayed on the client’s toolbar. This enables users to change the mode themselves and is necessary only if you allow multiple modes to be used. By default, this option is enabled.

Environment Options: Views

Figure 69-3 Environment Options Dialog Box with the Views Tab Open

The Views Environment options determine when items open, and whether or not users can read and compose messages in HTML.

View Options

Choose from the following settings to determine what occurs when the user performs an action that closes the current view.

Read Next after Accept, Decline, or Delete: Select this option to have the next available received item automatically open after the user accepts, declines, or deletes an appointment, task, or note. By default, this option is enabled.
Open New View after Send: Select this option to have a new send view open after a user sends a message. By default, this option is disabled.

Allowable Read Views

Choose from the following settings to determine what read views you allow the clients to use.

Plain Text (Default): Select this option to allow users to read items in plain text.
HTML: Select this option to allow users to read items in HTML.

Click Set Default to select the default read views.

Allowable Compose Views

Choose from the following settings to determine what compose views you allow the clients to use.

Plain Text (Default): Select this option to allow users to compose items in plain text.
HTML: Select this option to allow users to compose items in HTML.

Click Set Default to select the default compose views.

Disable HTML View

Turns off the ability to view or compose messages in HTML View.

Environment Options: File Location

The File Location options determine the locations of users’ archive directories and the custom views directory.

Figure 69-4 Environment Options Dialog Box with the File Locations Tab Open

Archive Directory

Select the directory to be used for archiving items for both the Windows client and the Linux/Mac client. Each user must have his or her own archive directory. You could choose a location similar to the default location for users’ Caching mailbox, for example:

Windows XP:	c:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Application Data\ Novell\GroupWise\archive
Windows Vista:	c:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Novell\GroupWise\archive
Windows 7:	c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Novell\GroupWise\archive
Linux:	/home/loginname/gwarchive
Mac:	/Users/loginname/gwarchive

It could also be a personal user directory on a network server. If you select a network drive, make sure users have the necessary rights to access the location.

IMPORTANT:If you want to use a network location, do not specify the same directory for users in more than one post office. The names of users’ individual archive directories are based on their FIDs. FIDs are unique within a post office, but users in different post offices can have the same FID.

Custom Views

This option applies only if you are using custom views. Select the directory where the views are located. The GroupWise product does not include the capability to design custom views, but third-party products make use of this feature to support their specialized capabilities.

Environment Options: Cleanup

The Cleanup options determine the delete and archive settings for GroupWise items (mail messages, phone messages, appointments, tasks, and notes).

Figure 69-5 Environment Options Dialog Box with the Cleanup Tab Open

Mail and Phone

Choose from the following settings to determine how mail and phone messages are deleted and archived:

Manual Delete and Archive: Select this option to have mail and phone messages deleted or archived only when users manually do it. This is the default setting.
Auto-Delete After: Select this option to have GroupWise automatically delete mail and phone messages that are older than the specified number of days. If you use this option, you should notify users so they know they must archive items they want to save.
Auto-Archive After: Select this option to have GroupWise archive mail and phone messages that are older than the specified number of days. Users must have an archive directory specified in order for items to be archived. See Environment Options: File Location for information about setting a default archive directory location.

Appointment, Task, and Note

Choose from the following settings to determine how appointments, tasks, and notes are deleted or archived:

Manual Delete and Archive: Select this option to have appointments, tasks, and notes deleted or archived only when users manually do it. This is the default setting.
Auto-Delete After: Select this option to have GroupWise automatically delete appointments, tasks, or notes that are older than the specified number of days. If you use this option, you should notify users so they know they must archive items they want to save.
Auto-Archive After: Select this option to have GroupWise automatically archive appointments, tasks, and notes older than the specified number of days. Users must have an archive directory specified in order for items to be archived. See Environment Options: File Location for information about setting a default archive directory location.

Empty Trash

Deleted items are moved to the Trash folder. They can be retrieved from the Trash until it is emptied. Items in the Trash still take up disk space. Select from the following settings to determine how the Trash folder is emptied:

Manual: Select this option to require the user to manually empty the Trash. This is the default setting.
Automatic: Select this option to have GroupWise automatically empty items from the trash after they have been in it for the specified number of days.

Purges

Do Not Purge Items Until They Are Backed Up: Select this option to prevent items that have not been backed up from being removed from the Trash. This option is disabled by default.

Select the Prompt Before Purging option (available only if Do Not Purge Items Until They Are Backed Up is disabled) to prompt the user to confirm the purging of any files that have not been backed up.
Perform Maintenance Purges on Caching/Remote: On the Disk Space Management page (Tools > GroupWise Utilities > Client Options > Send > Disk Space Management) in ConsoleOne, you can limit the size of users’ Online mailboxes. You can now enforce the same mailbox size limits on users’ Caching and Remote mailboxes, wherever those mailboxes are located.

The size limit is applied to users’ Caching and Remote mailboxes regardless of the amount of available disk space on users’ hard drives. The size limit is applied the next time the GroupWise Windows client synchronizes with users’ Online mailboxes. Because users might lose items that they have been storing locally when the size limit is enforced, you should warn users that size limits are going to be placed on their local Caching and Remote mailboxes.

Force Synchronization of Cleanup Options to Caching/Remote

Transfers the cleanup options you set in ConsoleOne to users’ Caching and Remote mailboxes and locks them, so that the cleanup options are performed even if users are working in their Caching or Remote mailboxes without being connected to the network.

Environment Options: Appearance

The Appearance options determines the appearance of the GroupWise Windows client.

Environment Options: Retention

The Retention tab is displayed only if the Provides Message Retention Service setting is turned on for a trusted application. For information, see Section 4.12, Trusted Applications.

Message retention is configurable only by administrators, not by GroupWise users. The Retention options do not display in the GroupWise client.

Figure 69-7 Environment Options Dialog Box with the Retention Tab Open

Enable Message Retention Service

Select this option to enable the Message Retention Service. If you are setting client options for a domain, all user mailboxes in the domain support message retention. Likewise, if you are setting options for a post office, all user mailboxes in the post office support message retention. After a user’s mailbox is enabled for message retention, the user cannot perform any action (purging, archiving, etc.) that removes messages from the mailbox until the messages have been copied to another storage location by a trusted application that has been designed to provide the Message Retention Service.

Environment Options: Junk Mail

The Junk Mail Handling Environment options determine the junk mail handling functionality of the GroupWise client.

Figure 69-8 Junk Mail Tab in the Environment Options Dialog Box

Junk Mail Handling

Select Enable Junk Mail Handling to enable junk mail handling. This setting determines whether or not the Junk Mail Handling feature is available for a user. This setting affects both the client and the POA. Junk Mail Handling allows users to block or “junk” unwanted Internet e-mail. When this setting is disabled, the client does not display any Junk Mail Handling menus or dialog boxes, and the POA does not perform any junk mail handling for the user. When this setting is enabled, the client displays Junk Mail Handling menus and dialog boxes, and the POA performs junk mail handling if the block and junk lists are also enabled.

Enable Junk Mail Using Junk Mail Lists

Select this option to cause junking based on e-mail addresses and domain names available to users. A user can junk e-mail from a specific Internet e-mail address or from an entire Internet domain, when the e-mail addresses and Internet domains are listed in the user’s Junk List. (Initially, there are no entries in a user’s junk list.) Junked items are delivered to the Junk Mail folder in the user’s Mailbox.

When this setting is enabled or disabled and not locked, the user’s initial setting to use the Junk List is enabled or disabled. Users can change the setting. When the setting is enabled and locked, a user's Enable Junk List setting is enabled and cannot be disabled. When the setting is disabled and locked, the Junk List is unavailable to the user. Client menu options and dialog boxes involving the Junk List are not displayed.

Enable Junk Mail Using Personal Address Book

Select this option to cause junking based on personal address book entries available to users. A user can junk e-mail from all users whose addresses are not in any personal address books (including Frequent Contacts) without building a Junk List.

When this setting is enabled or disabled and not locked, the user’s initial setting to use personal address books is enabled or disabled. Users can change the setting. When the setting is enabled and locked, a user's Enable Junk Mail Using Personal Address Book setting is enabled and cannot be disabled. When the setting is disabled and locked, this option is unavailable to the user.

Enable Junk Calendaring Using Personal Address Book

Select this option to make junking of calendar items based on personal address book entries available to users. A user can junk calendar items from all users whose addresses are not in any personal address books (including Frequent Contacts) without building a Junk List.

Auto-Delete After

Select this option and specify the number of days after which you want junked items to be automatically deleted from users' mailboxes. The default is 14 days.

When this setting is enabled or disabled and not locked, the user's initial setting to delete junked items is enabled or disabled. Users can change the setting. When the setting is enabled and locked, a user’s Automatically Delete Items setting is enabled and cannot be disabled. When the setting is disabled and locked, this option is unavailable to the user.

Enable Blocked Mail Using Block Mail Lists

Select this option to make blocking available to users. A user can block e-mail from an Internet e-mail address or Internet domain, when blocked e-mail addresses and Internet domains are listed in the user's Block List. (Initially, there are no entries in a user's Block List.) Blocked items are blocked when the POA processes delivery to the user's mailbox, and the items are never delivered to the user's mailbox. When the POA log uses verbose mode, the log displays information about blocked items.

When this setting is enabled or disabled and not locked, the user’s initial setting to use the Block List is enabled or disabled. Users can change the setting. When the setting is enabled and locked, a user's Block List setting is enabled and cannot be disabled. When the setting is disabled and locked, blocking is unavailable to the user. Client menu options and dialog boxes involving the Block List are not displayed.

The Send Options determine general settings that apply to all GroupWise item types (mail messages, phone messages, appointments, tasks, and notes).

Figure 69-13 Send Options Dialog Box with the Send Options Tab Open

Classification

Select the default for the security classification label at the top of the message box. The classifications do not provide any encryption or additional security. They are meant to alert the recipient to the relative sensitivity of the item. The options are Normal, Proprietary, Confidential, Secret, Top Secret, and For Your Eyes Only. The default is Normal.

Priority

Select High, Standard, or Low as the default item priority. Priority determines which post office directory an item is placed in. This, in turn, determines how quickly items are delivered. High priority items are queued ahead of normal or low priority items.

Reply Requested

Select the Reply Requested option to have items always include a reply request. By default, this option is disabled. If you enable the option, select whether the recipient is asked to reply when it is convenient or within a specific number of days.

MIME Encoding

Select the default MIME encoding for all outgoing messages. The MIME encoding is used to specify the character set that is used for all outgoing messages. This is important when your company has users using different character sets. For more information, see Section 7.4, MIME Encoding.

Allow Use of “Reply to All” in Rules

Select this option to enable users to use the Reply to All action when creating rules. By default, this option is disabled, which means that only the Reply to Sender action is available.

Allow Use of “Internet Mail” Tracking

Select this option to allow users’ GroupWise clients to automatically embed information in Internet-bound items. The embedded information instructs the receiving system to send back a delivery notification message (if it is supported). By default, this option is enabled.

To make Internet Status Tracking work, users must also turn on the setting in the GroupWise client (Tools > Options > Send Options > Mail > Enable Delivery Confirmation). By default, the Enable Delivery Confirmation is turned off in the GroupWise client.

Expiration Date

Select this option to have unopened messages expire after the specified number of days. By default, this option is disabled.

Delay Delivery

Select this option to delay the delivery of messages for the specified number of days. For example, if you specify 3 days, a message is not delivered until 3 days after the day it is sent. Messages are delivered at 12:01 a.m. of the appropriate day. By default, this option is disabled.

Wildcard Addressing

Wildcard addressing enables a user to send an item to all users in a post office, domain, GroupWise system, or connected GroupWise system by inserting asterisks (*) as wildcards in e-mail addresses.

Not Allowed: Select this option to disable wildcard addressing.
Limited to Post Office (Default): Select this option to limit wildcard addressing to the user’s post office. This means that a user can send an item to all users on the same post office by entering * in the item’s address field.
Limited to Domain: Select this option to limit wildcard addressing to the user’s domain. This means that a user can send an item to all users in the domain by entering *.* in the item’s address field. A user can also send an item to all users on another post office in the domain by entering *.post_office_name in the item’s address field.
Limited to System: Select this option to limit wildcard addressing to the user’s GroupWise system. This means that a user can send an item to all users in the GroupWise system by entering *.*.* in the item’s address field. A user can also send an item to all users in another domain by entering *.domain_name or to all users in another post office by entering *.post_office_name.
Unlimited: Select this option to allow unlimited use of wildcard addressing. This means that a user can send an item to all users in another GroupWise system by entering *.post_office_name.domain_name or *.domain_name in the item’s address field.

Notify Recipients

Select this option to have recipients notified when they receive an item, if they are using GroupWise Notify. By default, this option is enabled.

Convert Attachments

Select this option to allow conversion of attachments in items sent to non-GroupWise e-mail systems through a GroupWise gateway.

Allow Reply Rules to Loop

By default, GroupWise does not allow a rule-generated reply to be replied to by another rule-generated reply. This situation, referred to as looping, can quickly increase message traffic. To allow reply rules to loop, select this option.

Maximum Recipients Allowed

By default, users can send messages to any number of recipients. To prevent users from sending messages to very large numbers of users, perhaps using groups, distribution lists, or wildcard addressing, specify the maximum number of recipients that a message can be sent to. If users exceed the specified maximum, they receive an error instructing them to remove recipients and try again.

Restricted Attachment Extensions

To prevent users from sending specific types of attachments, such as executables, media files, and so on, specify the file extensions that cannot be attached to messages. If users attach a restricted file type, they receive an error indicating the file type restriction, so that they can remove the attachment.

Send Options: Mail

The Mail options apply to mail and phone messages only.

Figure 69-14 Send Options Dialog Box with the Mail Tab Open

Create a Sent Item to Track Information

By default, items the user sends are inserted in the user’s Sent Items folder. Deselect this option if you do not want the items placed there. If items are not placed in the Sent Items folder, users cannot check the delivery status of the item. The following options are available only if this option is selected.

Delivered: Select this option to track delivered status only. The user can open the Properties window of the message to view the status.
Delivered and Opened (Default): Select this option to track delivered and opened status only. The user can open the Properties window of the sent message to view the status.
