Using the Mail System
---------------------
To use the Cyberdog mail system you will need an SMTP/POP3
account on a UNIX machine or other system or a Macintosh
server running software such as MailShare or the Apple
Internet Mail Server. See your system administrator to
acquire an account. Once Cyberdog has been installed, to
set up a connection to your server select the Connect To
item from the Cyberdog menu, then click on the Mail icon.
Mail and other preferences are stored in the "Internet
Preferences" file in the Preferences folder, created by the
Internet Config extension. If you have currently been using
Internet Config and have set up another POP3 mail server
your Cyberdog mail connection will already be set up.
Quicktime Version 2.1
---------------------
To play movies and sounds you find on the network in Cyberdog you will need to have QuickTime version 2.1 or later installed. In previous Cyberdog installers this was installed automatically, but to save space this is no longer included in the Cyberdog installation package.

Known Incompatibilities

Known Problems
--------------
There is a known problem in Cyberdog when you drag text or picture clippings from the text, picture, web viewer, message editor or the URL field in any Navigator window to the Finder. The document that is created will not open in OpenDoc unless you have previously set your OpenDoc Default memory to 1,400 K or greater. To make this change, do the following:
1. Launch any OpenDoc or Cyberdog document.
2. In the Document menu, select the Document Info menu item.
3. When that dialog opens, click the Size button at the bottom of the
dialog.
4. This opens the OpenDoc Memory Requirements dialog.
5. Set the radio button for the OpenDoc Default Size.
6. Increase the memory size to 1,400 K or greater.
7. Close the dialogs by clicking OK.
8. Then close all Cyberdog and OpenDoc documents.
