<p>Geary's email composer lets you adjust the font, size and color of text. You can also insert hyperlinks into messages.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Geary can also send plain text messages. In the drop-down menu, check or uncheck "Rich Text"
|
|
to toggle between plain text and rich text mode.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can attach a file to a message you're writing in either of these ways:</p>
|
|
<list>
|
|
<item><p>Press the <gui>Attach File</gui> button at the lower left
|
|
of the composer window, then select a file to attach.</p></item>
|
|
<item><p>Drag the file from the Nautilus file manager to the composer window, and drop it
|
|
either on the text fields at the top of the window or on the toolbar at the bottom.</p></item>
|
|
</list>
|
|
|
|
<p>A number of keyboard shortcuts are available in the composer; see <link xref="shortcuts"/> for details.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You may specify a signature to be inserted into the composer in the <link xref="accounts" />
|
|
dialog.</p>

<title>Drafts</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>For mail servers that support drafts, Geary will automatically save the message as you type.
|
|
If you close the composer without sending, Geary will prompt you to keep the draft or to discard it.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>To edit an existing draft, select the Drafts folder in the folder list, select the message,
|
|
and click "Edit Draft" in the message viewer.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Geary deletes the draft when you send the message.</p>
