========================================================================= IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT SOFTMAKER OFFICE FOR WINDOWS ========================================================================= Welcome to SoftMaker Office for Windows! This document contains important notes about this software. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SoftMaker add-ons for Thunderbird ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some versions of SoftMaker Office ship with a version of the e-mail program Thunderbird that has been enhanced by SoftMaker. All enhancements are made through add-ons. This has the advantage that you can remove any add-on that you do not want to use (go to the Tools menu and select the Add-ons command). Overview over the SoftMaker add-ons: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SoftMaker eM Client Importer This add-on adds an import function to Thunderbird that lets you import e-mail databases of eM Client 5 and 6, the e-mail solution that SoftMaker included with SoftMaker Office Professional 2012. You can run the import function by going to the Tools menu and choosing the command "Import e-mails from eM Client" and following the instructions given by the import wizard. As soon as the import from eM Client has finished, you can remove the import filter from Thunderbird again. Do this with the Tools/Add-ons command. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. SoftMaker Enhanced UI This add-on makes a number of changes to the user interface of Thunderbird. It makes the window title bar and the menu bar visible again, and shifts the document tabs below the toolbar again. Additionally, it provides improved functions for moving e-mail messages and for navigating in mail folders: If you click on the "Move to" icon (shortcut key Shift+M) or the "Go to" icon (shortcut key Shift+G), you can enter a partial folder name (such as "bus" for "Business"), and Thunderbird will show all folders whose name contains this text. This lets you pick the desired folder quickly. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. SoftMaker Theme This add-on replaces the black & white icons on the toolbar with colorful icons. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. Faster autocompletion of e-mail addresses If you have a large address book, Thunderbird 31 has problems with autocompletion of e-mail addresses in the "Compose e-mail" window on some systems. You will either notice a delay of up to several seconds or even incomplete completion of recipient names. This add-on restores autocompletion to the way Thunderbird 24 did it, which did not have such issues.
