<P>In the configuration menu, select "Create new account"
<P>In the "Basic" tab, enter the relevant data. You name the account, enter your name and e-mail address, etc. You can select this account to be the default account ("Usually used"). To select your local unix mailbox, in the Protocol box you select "None (local)".
+<P>
<P>When you select this option, the "Server for receiving" is greyed out, since this is not relevant. You can enter the server to send (SMTP) in this tab also.
<P>The "Receive" tab is not used in this setup, since you are not polling a server, your mail is delivered to you.
+<P>
<P>In the "Send" tab you can set up some more settings.
+<P>
<P>In the "Compose" tab you can define your signature file.
