-Sylpheed-Claws team (see AUTHORS file).<br>
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.5">1.5 Q05 What does the name Sylpheed-Claws mean?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Sylpheed means 'light weight', like air. This comes from the
-name of the wind spirits, the Sylphs. Claws because it originally was a
-bleeding-edge version of Sylpheed.<br>
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.6">1.6 Q06 How does Sylpheed-Claws store mails?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Mails are stored in the MH mailfile format as used by MH
-and EMH. Maildir and mbox format are not (yet)
-supported, although it is possible to import an mbox
-file into a Sylpheed-Claws mailbox.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.7">1.7 Q07 Why does the auto collection of mail not
-work?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Autocollection works since version 0.5.1. If you need it
-or want it, you should upgrade.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.8">1.8 Q08 Does Sylpheed have mail filtering?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes. You can find it in Configuration -> filtering tab.
-</p>
-<p>Please note that filtering is not yet implemented for IMAP accounts.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.9">1.9 Q09 Can Sylpheed-Claws handle IMAP mail?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes. As of version 0.4.99 IMAP is supported.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.10">1.10 Q10 Can Sylpheed-Claws handle local unix
-mailboxes?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.11">1.11 Q11 Can Sylpheed-Claws handle IPv6?</a>

-Sylpheed-Claws, see Q14 in the Installation section.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.13">1.13 Q13 How does Sylpheed-Claws check for MIME
-types?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Sylpheed uses the Mutt type of mime checking.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.14">1.14 Q14 Does Sylpheed-Claws allow me to write
-HTML styled messages?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. No. Lots of discussions have gone around over this topic, and
-the outcome was that HTML mail is not wanted. If you
-really need to send HTML, you can of course attach a
-webpage to an e-mail. Several patches have been made to
-facilitate better HTML handling in Sylpheed. You can
-find these patches at the Sylpheed Patch Page (see
-further down in the document).
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.15">1.15 Q15 Does Sylpheed-Claws have name completion
-in the address fields?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes. When you search for a name that starts with "<code>don</code>",
-type "<code>don</code>" (without the quotes) and press the TAB key.
-This will show you the correct name (when only one "don"
-exists in your addressbook. Otherwise a dropdown list
-appears, which allows you to select the name you want.
-E.g. Donald Duck, Don Johnson. But also e-mail addresses
-starting with "<code>don</code>" will appear in the list (like
-"<code>don.giovanni@maffia.org</code>").
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.16">1.16 Q16 Fine, but when I hit the TAB key I get an
-error message.</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. When you want to use name completion, make sure that
-there are names in your address book. If there are no
-names, even Sylpheed has a hard time completing
-something.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.17">1.17 Q17 Why is Sylpheed-Claws so fast?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. That's what it is designed for!
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.18">1.18 Q18 Where can I get the current patches for
-Sylpheed-Claws?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. The Sylpheed Patch homepage:
-<code><a href="http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/sylpheed/">http://www.thewildbeast.co.uk/sylpheed/</a></code>
-(Also see section on Installation on how to install a
-patch)
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.19">1.19 Q19 How can I send in patches, report bugs,
-talk about Sylpheed-Claws with others?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. To talk to others, you should join the Sylpheed-Claws mailing
-list at <a
- href="https://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/sylpheed-claws-users"><code>https://lists.sourceforge.net/mailman/listinfo/sylpheed-claws-users</code></a>.
-If you have made a patch that you want the world to know
-of, please send it to <a
- href="https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=25528&atid=384600">the
-patch tracker</a>. <span style="font-family: monospace;"></span><code></code>
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.20">1.20 Q20 When I send mail, the Content-Type header
-says the mail is in US-ASCII, even when I specified ISO-8859-1?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. If ISO-8859-1 characters (>= 0x80) are not used in the
-message body, Sylpheed-Claws will automatically set the
-charset value in the Content-Type header as US-ASCII.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.21">1.21 Q21 Why does it look like word wrap is not
-working?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. You probably disabled it.<br>
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.22">1.22 Q22 Where can I find the latest FAQ on
-Sylpheed-Claws?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. It is installed with the latest version of Sylpheed-Claws.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.23">1.23 Q23 Can I import a mbox into Sylpheed-Claws's
-MH mailfolders?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes, just create/select the folder you want your
-mails in, and select "Import mbox file" in the File
-menu.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.24">1.24 Q24 Can I use procmail to sort my mails with
-the MH mail handling?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes. Just make sure that you add /. to the end of a rule so
-procmail knows you are filtering into an MH mail folder. Example:
-</p>
-<p><code>0:</code>
-</p>
-<p><code>* ^Subject:.*sylpheed</code>
-</p>
-<p><code> sylpheedmail/.</code>
-</p>
-<p>Check man procmail for details.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.25">1.25 Q25 When I upgrade Sylpheed-Claws, are there
-things I should be aware of?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Yes! Everything is written in the release notes.<br>
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.26">1.26 Q26 How can I quickly update the views in
-Sylpheed-Claws?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. Just press Alt-U or select "update" from the summary menu.
-</p>
-<h2><a name="ss1.27">1.27 Q27 Why can't I use gvim as external editor?</a>
-</h2>
-<p>A. If one wishes to use gvim as an external editor it's necessary to
-start it with the no-fork option -f, i.e. in the configuration dialog
-box you need to enter "gvim -f %s". If not the editor forks and open up
-a separate file and when one quits the editor the changes are lost and
-don't show up in the composer window.
