<title>Preferences</title>
<p>Geary allows you to customise how it works via its
<gui>Preferences</gui> window. To open the window, select
<gui>Preferences</gui> from the application menu on the main
window's toolbar. You can change the following options:</p>
<terms>
<item>
<title><gui>Automatically select next message</gui></title>
<p>When this option is enabled, Geary automatically selects the
latest message in a folder when you enter the folder. In
addition, after archiving a message, Geary automatically selects
an adjacent message.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Display conversation preview</gui></title>
<p>Enables message previews in the conversation list. Previews
show the first few lines of each message.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Use three pane view</gui></title>
<p>Show the folder list, the conversation list, and the messages
side-by-side-by-side in three panes. If not selected, the
folder list and conversation list will be stacked vertically in
a single pane.</p>
</item>
<item>
<title><gui>Watch for new mail when closed</gui></title>
<p>Geary will watch your accounts for new mail even when the
main window is not open. To do this, it will silently start
when you log in to your computer, and it will continue to run
after you close all windows.</p>
