There are several encoding methods for Chinese characters on the Internet, such as BIG5 code, GB code and HZ code. BIG5 code is commonly known as Big Five code. It is a Chinese character encoding method that is popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan. It is generally displayed in traditional Chinese fonts; GB code is the standard Chinese character encoding promulgated by our country. It is mainly popular in mainland China; HZ code is in A new Chinese character encoding method among overseas students.

Using the BIG5 code as the Chinese character encoding generally cannot directly display the text information of the GB code in mainland China. This is why recipients in Hong Kong and Taiwan may not be able to normally browse the content of the email containing the GB code you sent.

After writing the email, click "Character Convert" in "Tools" on the menu bar, or after saving the email, use "Character Convert" in "Mail" on the main menu of FoxMail or use the shortcut keys. F7 and F8 to achieve mutual conversion between GB code and BIG5 code.

Therefore, in the When the recipient's name is in Chinese characters, the recipient cannot directly display the recipient's name. It is recommended that you use English names rather than Chinese character names to identify recipients in Hong Kong and Taiwan.

8. Why are emails sent lost or returned?

When sending a letter to amy@, the SMTP server that sends the letter must first contact the mail-receiving server with the address. If the mail-receiving server address after @ is written incorrectly, the sending server cannot be found. This wrong address can only be Host unknown (no such address found). When the sending server successfully contacts the receiving server, it will search for the account amy on the server. If the account number is written incorrectly and the server cannot find the account in its user database, it will return User unknown (no such person found). ) information. An effective way to prevent your mail from being bounced is to fill in your email address correctly.

During the process of email transmission, the sending server will delete the email backup after receiving confirmation from the receiving server. Otherwise, the sending server will temporarily save the email and The sending action will be retried at a certain interval. If it still cannot be delivered after a few days, the letter will be returned to the sender. When mail is stuck in the mail queue of the sending mail server, and the server fails, without backup or other remedial measures, the mail may be lost.

9. Why are emails sent lost or returned?

The following network errors usually occur during email transmission:

1) Unable to resolve the server address

This means that FoxMail failed to resolve the server address, usually Because the DNS server is not connected properly or the POP3/SMTP server name is written incorrectly. You can check the settings of "Account Properties".

2) Failed to connect to the server

It means Foxmail cannot connect to your mail server. For dial-up users, you should check whether you are connected to your ISP at this time. Of course, this may also happen if the mail server is shut down or too busy.

3) Network timeout

When Foxmail cannot receive any response from the server within a certain period of time, it will abort the current operation and report a network timeout error. You can set the timeout value in Foxmail's settings options. The specific setting method is as follows:

Select "System Settings" in "Options" in the main work interface and then select the "Network" option in this window. You will see "Network Timeout" in the last line. ", click it so that there is a mark in front of it, and then set the time value after this line.

10. What factors determine the transmission speed of E-mail?

The transmission speed of e-mail mainly depends on the smoothness and speed of the network. As mentioned in question 8, the mail server will generally choose the best path. Even if the email sending is delayed, it will Retry until delivery is successful or returned to sender. On the Internet, the speed between nodes only depends on the network bandwidth and has little to do with physical distance. At present, domestic networks are often overcrowded, and between major domestic Internet networks, such as the education network (CERNet) and the science and technology network (CASNet), network speed bottlenecks often occur because the bandwidth is too narrow. Cause information blockage. In comparison, Internet speeds abroad are much faster.

Therefore, letters sent abroad are often faster than those sent domestically.

11. Can the address book information of different E-mail software be shared?

FoxMail provides the "Address Book Import" function. Currently it can import address books from Dudora 3.x and Netscape Mail 3.x, and can import and export address books from Outlook.

When you want to find all emails marked as "Favorite", click the red flag on the email list box, and you will see that all related emails have been Arrange them together. If there are too many letters of the same type, you can also use "Search" to quickly achieve your purpose.

13. What is the difference between multiple mailboxes, multiple users, and multiple accounts?

Multiple mailboxes means that under one account you can create multiple mailboxes other than the existing "Inbox", "Outbox", "Sent Mailbox" and "Trash Box". Multi-user means that multiple different people use the FoxMail software on the same computer to send and receive E-mail. Multi-account means that each user can have one or more accounts at the same time to send and receive E-mail.

Multiple mailboxes are different from multiple accounts. The biggest difference between them is that a mailbox is a subset of an account, that is, an account can have multiple mailboxes for sending and receiving emails.

FoxMail can create an own mailbox directory structure and settings for each user, and can also set different passwords to protect the security of each mailbox user information. For example, you can set tiger, apple, lily When multiple user accounts are on the same machine, they all have their own passwords. Each account will have a complete outbox, inbox, trash box, and sent mail box.

Each user can have multiple email accounts. For example, lily can set up multiple accounts such as lily@sina.com, lilu@21cn.com, lily@163.net, etc.

Under each account, you can create new mailboxes in addition to the system's default 4 mailboxes according to personal needs. For example, lily@sina.com can create two mailboxes, "Favorites" and "Private Mail" under the inbox.

14. How to protect privacy in public places?

Using copy and over-paste methods to move the inbox and outbox to a different account in Explorer, it is possible to bypass the system's verification of the account password and thus be able to view other people's accounts. The content of the email may be sent in the name of others. Therefore, in public places, such as public computer rooms and Internet cafes, it is recommended that you:

1) Place the decompressed FoxMail directory in, for example, c:lcadxhl In multiple directories, do not set it as the browser's default email software in IE settings. The purpose is to prevent others from discovering that you are using FoxMail.

2) No Use FoxMail's address book.

3) Delete the account every time you use it.

15. How to set up POP3 and multiple accounts?

You can see this in the properties of each account. Go to such an item: "Other POP3". When you apply for email addresses in multiple places, you can add the POP3 server for each address in the properties. When receiving mail, you can directly click the receive mail icon on the menu bar to receive mail from all POP3 servers, or you can open the drop-down menu of the icon to select to receive mail from one of the servers.

We know that each account in FoxMail has its own independent inbox, outbox, independent account attributes, etc. The connections created with "Other POP3" will use the same set of inboxes and outboxes as the original connections to the account. These connections will also use the same set of account attributes, including name and title. , signature files, templates, etc.

That is, if you use multiple POP3, even though the POP3 servers that send the mail are different, the letters you reply to use the same "Account Attributes" settings. If you want each account to represent a different identity, using the multiple POP3 function is obviously not suitable. Your needs. But if you only receive mails in a certain POP3 connection without replying or do not need to pay attention to too many formats and styles when replying to mailboxes, such as mailboxes for subscribing to electronic magazines, then use the same set of sending and receiving Mailbox processing can also reduce the burden of managing FoxMail mailboxes.

16. How to prevent spam?

FoxMail provides two ways to avoid spam. One is "remote mailbox management"; the other is "mail filter".< /p>

If "Remote Mailbox Management" receives the email header first, you can clearly judge which letter you want, and then decide to receive or delete it according to the function buttons provided.

Mail filter (filtering) allows you to set it up. For example, when the received mail meets certain conditions (or characteristics), it will be automatically classified into a specified folder or deleted or transferred to another location.

17. Filter settings?

For example: to prevent the "happy99" virus, select "Topic" in the first location column and select "Include" in the relationship box command, enter the text to be included in the right box, such as "happy99", which together form the condition "the topic contains happy99". In fact, the "happy99" virus not only requires conditional restrictions in the subject, but also in the attachment. Therefore, multiple conditions must be set. Foxmail provides you with two condition selection columns, and you can also set the relationship between the two conditions.

After setting condition one, click on the next blank In the drop-down arrow on the right side of the column, three options appear: "Ignore", "And", and "Or". It describes the relationship between the two conditions. Therefore, this box can be called an "operation box". In the "operation box" "Select the "OR" operation command in the next position box, select "Attachment" in the next position box, select the "Include" command in the relationship box, and enter the text to be included in the right box, such as: happy99.exe. In this way, both conditions are set, and the combination is "the theme contains happy99 or the attachment contains happy99.exe".

18. How to use filters to transfer or copy incoming mail to a designated mailbox?

After entering the filter manager, first complete the settings of the above conditions, and then click the "Action" button. You will see that it contains many options, which is a vivid reflection of the powerful functions of Foxmail.

Click the small icon on the far right of the function bar, and a window will pop up to select the mailbox. Foxmail will automatically add "\amyamy fox mailbox" to the original blank column

Generally speaking, the "transfer" and "copy" functions of Foxmail filters only support newly created mailboxes and trash boxes.

19. How to use filters to forward or redirect letters?

For letters that meet certain conditions, Foxmail can automatically forward or redirect them to other users. This saves you the process of forwarding the letter to the designated user after receiving it, and increases the mail operation. automation and flexibility.

Enter the filter action settings window, find the function options "Forward" and "Redirect", select them, and then click the small icon behind them to display the "Select Address" window. Select the user you need in the default address book. After the setting is completed, Foxmail will automatically add the E-mail address to the original blank space.

The settings for redirection are the same as above.

20. How to use filters to identify important letters?

Enter the filter manager window, find the "Make Sound" and "Run Application" options, and select them, then click the small icon behind them to pop up the Windows dialog box and select a *.Wav sound file, press the "Open" button, Foxmail will record the path of this file and display it in the original blank column. In this way, every time when receiving a letter, Foxmail will call this sound file when it encounters a letter that meets the conditions.

When setting "Run Application", you also need to open the file. The difference is that it opens the *.exe file. You can also identify important emails by changing their labels or giving you notifications when you receive them. Select the "Change Label" and "Show Message" functions in the filter manager window, click the drop-down arrow on the right side of the blank column in the "Change Label" column, and several label options will appear. Select the "Important" label, and then display Enter the message language to be prompted in the message box, for example: "Warning! Important letter".
