Appearance Schemes
The appearance schemes allow you to select between Default, GroupWise 6.5 and 
Simplified. Each of these schemes have default appearance settings. Default has the 
full Folder list, Main Menu, Main Toolbar, and uses the sky blue color theme. 
GroupWise 6.5 has the full folder list, Main Toolbar and looks just like the 
GroupWise 6.5 look. Simplified has the sky blue color scheme, the Nav Bar, and 
the simple Folder list.

Individual Appearance Settings
You can control how GroupWise looks by using the individual appearance settings, in 
order to control what is displayed in GroupWise. You select to display the Main Menu 
display the Nav Bar, display the Main Toolbar, use GroupWise color schemes, display 
the folder list and how you want to the folder list to be displayed, display the QuickViewer 
and where you want the QuickViewer to display.

Color Schemes
You can control the color scheme for GroupWise. Your selection from the list of 
available color schemes overrides any operating system color schemes you might have 
previously used for GroupWise.

Header Controls
Header Controls allow you to select a font size, font color, and reset the header to the 
default. 200 GroupWise 7 Installation Guide

Quick Filter
The Quick Filter lets you perform a filter on the panel or folder that is selected. The filter 
searches on most fields that are available in the selected panel or folder, but it does not 
search message bodies or attachments.

Messenger Presence
If you have GroupWise Messenger installed, you can now see the presence information 
for users in the Quick Info. For messages that you have received, the presence status is 
located in the From field. For messages you are sending, the presence status is located in 
the TO, CC, and BC Quick Info. You can also see the presence information in the Quick 
Info for an individual in the Address Book.

Home View
The Home View is a quick view of your most important information. The Home View uses 
panels to display the information in sections. By default, the Home View displays your 
calendar for the day, your checklist items, and your unread messages in a two-column view.
However, the Home View is fully customizable. You can create additional panels that display
the information you need. In addition, you can select to have only a one-column view. This 
stacks the panels into one column instead of the default two columns. As well as showing 
panels, you can display your folder list and the Quick Viewer.

New Customized Navigation Bar
The Navigation bar is designed for quick access to the folders you use the most. By default 
the Navigation bar contains the Home, Mailbox, Calendar, Contacts, and Trash folders. 
However, the Navigation bar is customizable, so you can add the folders you use the most.

Unicode Support
Unicode* support has been added to the subject and message body of items. Now you can 
write or read messages in most languages in GroupWise.

Spell Check as You Type
Use spell checking as you type to check for misspelled words, duplicate words, and irregular
capitalization in items you are creating. When spell checking finds a misspelled word as you 
type, the word is underlined in red. You can see a list of suggestions, add the word to your 
word list, always skip the word, or disable spell checking as you type by right-clicking the 
red-underlined word.

HTML Signatures
Use Signatures to insert a signature or tag line at the end of items you send. For example
you can have GroupWise automatically list your name, phone number, and e-mail address 
at the bottom of every item you send. If you have a number of different accounts, including 
POP3, IMAP4, and NNTP newsgroup accounts, you can create a different signature for 
each account.

Global Signatures
In addition to personal signatures, your system administrator can create a global signature for
everyone to use. The system administrator can require the global signature. If the system
administrator requires the global signature, it is automatically appended to all items that are 
sent. If the system administrator does not require the global signature, it is appended to your 
signature. If you don’t have a signature, the global signature is not added to sent items if it is 
not required.

Inline Quotation for Replies
When you reply to a message, you can select how the reply text should appear. GroupWise 
classic format shows the date before the original message. Include Header format shows the 
header information before the original text. Internet Standard format adds a greater-than sign 
(>) in front of the original message.

Prevent Images from Displaying for HTML Messages
When an HTML message is received, the images are not shown by default for security 
reasons. This helps prevent viruses and other malicious attacks through e-mail messages.
To display the images, click the message that states, “GroupWise has prevented Images 
from displaying. Click here to display the image.” You can set GroupWise to always show 
the warning, never show the warning, or check Frequent Contacts. If you select to check 
Frequent Contacts, it shows the images in messages from people listed in your Frequent 
Contacts address book.

Search Attachments
When you perform a search in GroupWise, the text of attachments is automatically 
included in the search.

Multiple Calendars
You can now create multiple calendars in GroupWise. Each new calendar that is created 
is assigned a color. When the new calendars display in the calendar view, the appointment 
background color matches the color of the calendar that it belongs to.

Print Calendar in Full Color
When you print the calendar, the individual calendar colors are printed in addition to the 
category color. 202 GroupWise 7 Installation Guide
All Day Events
GroupWise now has support for all day events. All day events are displayed at the top of 
the calendar view. When you create an all day event, by default it does not mark the time as 
busy.

Edit Corporate Distribution Lists
End users can now edit a corporate distribution list if they have been granted access. You 
edit a corporate distribution list in the same way you edit any distribution list or group.

Default Compose and Read Views
You can now specify the default font and size for the compose and read views if you have 
text as your default read view. However, if you select HTML as your default read view, you 
cannot set the default font or font size. The default font and size for reading HTML messages
are determined by the message that is sent.
