## How to compose email
|
||||
|
||||
### FROM
|
||||
|
||||
There are 2 options for how this field might look.
|
||||
|
||||
#### 1. classic
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, the address consists of three parts, something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
`NAME <IDENTITY_NAME@DOMAIN>`
|
||||
|
||||
The NAME part is optional.
|
||||
The IDENTITY_NAME part should be the name of the used Bote identity.
|
||||
The DOMAIN part can be any valid domain.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
`John Doe <johnd@bote.i2p>`
|
||||
|
||||
#### 2. Bote style
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, the address consists of two parts, something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
`IDENTITY_NAME <BOTE_ADDRESS>`
|
||||
|
||||
The IDENTITY_NAME part should be the name of the used Bote identity.
|
||||
The BOTE_ADDRESS part should be Bote address.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
|
||||
`johnd <24noEIMPvV9CEwrSWQtIsTA7balaZ80ZOGRBAzrsBl5nv9xud~k28d9TQIgXmyyCYtHl8PJASAFDeefSc6EJ81>`
|
||||
|
||||
### TO
|
||||
|
||||
Very similar to field FROM with one amendment for option 1:
|
||||
The <IDENTITY_NAME@DOMAIN> must be in the address book for replacement.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you have this record in addressbook:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
johnd1@bote.i2p;John Doe 1;24noEIMPvV9CEwrSWQtIsTA7balaZ80ZOGRBAzrsBl5nv9xud~k28d9TQIgXmyyCYtHl8PJASAFDeefSc6EJ81
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can fill TO like this:
|
||||
|
||||
`TO: John Doe <johnd1@bote.i2p>`

# Configuring the mail client
|
||||
|
||||
_Tested with [Mozilla Thunderbird](https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/)_
|
||||
|
||||
## SMTP
|
||||
|
||||
1. Turn on SMTP for [this](SMTP.md) instruction.
|
||||
2. For default settings client side configuration looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
- Server name: localhost
|
||||
- Port: 25
|
||||
- Connection security: None
|
||||
- Authentication method: No authentication
|
||||
- User Name: username
|
||||
|
||||
## POP3
|
||||
|
||||
1. Turn on POP3 for [this](POP3.md) instruction.
|
||||
2. For default settings client side configuration looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
- Server name: localhost
|
||||
- Port: 110
|
||||
- Connection security: None
|
||||
- Authentication method: Password, transmitted insecurely
|
||||
|
||||
For now, you can use any password, as it will be ignored on the pboted side.
