Build 1999091509M11: Win32/NT4 (Linux and Mac: Have seen these problems in general. Will check with more detail later) Overview: When an account panel is selected then the following issues do not match the spec. Spec: http://gooey/client/5.0/specs/mail/accountSetup/accountSetup.html 1. If the Mail Account level is selected then it should display "Earthlink Settings" 2. If the News Account level is selected then it should display "Earthlink Settings" 3. Problem: With account level selected the Reply-to Address box is blank. Expect: It should have grey text stating "Only needed if different from your email address". 4.Problem: There is an option to "Compose message using html". Expect: It should actually state "Compose messages using plain text" Mail Only 5. Problem: No "Advanced" button is dislayed. Expect: An "Advanced" button should display below the "Edit..." button.

The reason this wording was choosen is so that the format would be consistent with the text in the Address Book. In the Address Book Card Edit dialog, there is a checkbox that reads "Send email as plain text (no html)" (changed from 4.x "Prefers to receive rich text (html) mail"). This was specifically a request of Sol Goldfarb's, Mail PM. If the reverse wording is preferred ("Compose messages using html"), it should be consistent in both the Address Book Card Edit dialog and the Account Setting dialog.
Account Settings and Address Book UE spec changed based on decisions made in Mail Issues Meeting 10/14/99. Account Settings Identity Dialog: 2 Radio Buttons "Compose messages using:" - "Plain text" - Default for News accounts - "Rich text (html)" - Default for Mail accounts Address Book - Card Edit dialog: Checkbox "Prefers to receive rich text (html) mail" - Default is unchecked.
