Right-click in the message composition area and select an input method from the Input Methods menu, then begin typing. The actual keys vary by language and input style. For example, the Cyrillic input method uses transliterated Latin keyboard combinations to get the Cyrillic alphabet, combining letters where necessary. “Zh” and “ya” produce the appropriate single Cyrillic letters, and the single-quote (‘) produces a soft sign character.</para> + <para>For greater language display capabilities, click Edit > Preferences, then select the character set choices in the Mail Preferences and Composer Preferences sections.

In the past, the ASCII character set was used almost universally. However, it contains only 128 characters, meaning it is unable to display characters in Cyrillic, Kanjii, or other non-Latin alphabets. To work around language display problems, programmers developed a variety of methods, so many human languages now have their own specific character sets, and items written in other character sets display incorrectly. Eventually, standards organizations developed the UTF-8 Unicode&thrdmrk; character set to provide a single compatible set of codes for everyone.</para> + <para>Most e-mail messages state in advance which character set they use, so Evolution usually knows what to display for a given binary number. However, if you find that messages are displayed as rows of incomprehensible characters, try selecting a different character set in the mail settings screen. If your recipients can't read your messages, try selecting a different character set in the composer options dialog box. For some languages, such as Turkish or Korean, it might work best for you to select the language-specific character set. However, the best choice for most users is UTF-8, which offers the widest range of characters for the widest range of languages.</para> + </sect3> + </sect2> + <sect2 id="b1a5azam"> + <title>Custom Header</title> + <para>You can configure custom headers to set sensitivity and caveats to the outgoing messages.</para> + <para>To enable the Custom Header plugin:</para> + <para>Select Edit > Plug-ins, then select the Custom Header check box. </para> + + <informalfigure><mediaobject> + <imageobject role="png"> + <imagedata fileref="figures/evo_customheader.png" format="png"/></imageobject> + </mediaobject></informalfigure> + + <para>In the Plugin Manager, select the Configuration tab to customize your header fields.

To work around language display problems, programmers developed a variety of methods, so many human languages now have their own specific character sets, and items written in other character sets display incorrectly.

For some languages, such as Turkish or Korean, it might work best for you to select the language-specific character set.

S/MIME uses certificates, which are similar to keys. The public portion of each certificate is held by the sender of a message and by one of several certificate authorities, who are paid to guarantee the identity of the sender and the security of the message. Evolution already recognizes a large number of certificate authorities, so when you get a message with an S/MIME certificate, your system automatically receives the public portion of the certificate and decrypts or verifies the message.</para> - <para>S/MIME is used most often in corporate settings. In these cases, administrators supply certificates that they have purchased from a certificate authority. In some cases, an organization can act as its own certificate authority, with or without a guarantee from a dedicated authority such as VeriSign&z-3rdParty; or Thawte&z-3rdParty;. In either case, the system administrator provides you with a certificate file.</para> - <para>If you want to use S/MIME independently, you can extract an identification certificate from your Mozilla&z-3rdParty; or Netscape&z-3rdParty; Web browser.

Search folders are an advanced way of viewing your e-mail messages within Evolution. If you get a lot of mail or often forget where you put messages, search folders can help you keep things organized.</para> + <para>A search folder is really a hybrid of all the other organizational tools: it looks like a folder, it acts like a search, and you set it up like a filter.

The messages it contains are determined on the fly using a set of criteria you choose in advance.</para> + <para>As messages that meet the search folder criteria arrive or are deleted, Evolution automatically adjusts the search folder contents. When you delete a message, it is erased from the folder in which it actually exists, as well as any search folders that display it.</para> + <para>The Unmatched Search Folder is the opposite of other search folders: it displays all messages that do not appear in other search folders.</para> + <para>If you use remote e-mail storage like IMAP or Microsoft Exchange, and have created search folders to search through them, the Unmatched Search Folder also searches the remote folders. If you do not create any search folders that search remote mail stores, the Unmatched Search Folder does not search in them either.</para> + <para>As an example of using folders, searches, and search folders, consider the following: To organize his mailbox, Jim sets up a search folder for e-mail from his friend and co-worker Anna. He has another search folder for messages that have novell.com in the address and Evolution in the subject line, so he can keep a record of what people from work send him about Evolution. If Anna sends him a message about anything other than Evolution, it only shows up in the “Anna” search folder.

If Anna sends him a message about anything other than Evolution, it only shows up in the <quote>Anna</quote> search folder.
