Choose this option if you want MDaemon's interface to be maximized at startup.

Choose this option if you want MDaemon's interface to appear in a default window at startup.
Always keep icon on task bar
When this option is enabled, MDaemon will start minimized to the taskbar, and it will appear on both the taskbar and in the system tray when minimized. Clear this checkbox if you do not want MDaemon to appear on the Windows taskbar when minimized; only the tray icon will be visible.
UI Settings
Use small display font
Enables the small display font in the Event Tracking and Session windows.
Show Apply button result
By default, whenever you click the Apply button on a dialog a message box will open confirming that the changes you made to the dialog's settings have been saved. Uncheck this box if you wish to apply the changes without displaying the message.
Preserve root node mail counts
Enable this option if you wish to save the root node counters across server reboots. The root node counters are listed in the "Statistics" section of the Stats pane on MDaemon's main GUI.
Preserve server on/off states
If this control is enabled, MDaemon will ensure that the state of its servers (enabled or disabled) remains the same after a reboot.
Expand UI tree nodes
Click this box if you want the navigation tree nodes in the left-hand pane of various dialog to be expanded automatically. This does not apply to the Mailing List Manager. If you wish to automatically expand the mailing list tree nodes, use the Expand List Manager tree nodes option below.
Expand List Manager tree nodes
Click this checkbox if you want the Mailing List Manager's navigation tree nodes in the left-hand pane to be expanded automatically.
Update message counts in UI
This option governs whether MDaemon will check the disk to count waiting messages in the mail queues.
Split session pane
Enable this option if you want the Sessions tab in the main MDaemon UI to be split from the other tabs into its own pane. Changing this setting requires a restart of the MDaemon UI, and the option on the Windows menu to switch panes will no longer be available.
Center all UI dialog
By default all dialogs are centered on the screen when they are opened, rather than overlap each other. Clear this checkbox if you wish dialogs to overlap, but this can occasionally cause them to be partially off the screen or out-of-frame.
Use colors in UI logs
This option will colorize the text displayed on several of the Event Tracking and Logging tabs on MDaemon's user interface. It is enabled by default, and changing its setting will require an MDaemon interface restart before the change will take effect. See: Colorized Session Logs for more information.
List Manager includes System lists
Enable this option if you wish to display MDaemon's system-generated mailing lists (e.g. Everyone@ and MasterEveryone@) in the Mailing List Manager. System generated lists have limited items available for user configuration. When this option is disabled, system lists will be hidden but still available for use. This option is disabled by default.
MDSTATS runs in single instance
Click this checkbox if you do not want more than one copy of MDaemon's Queue and Statistics manager to be able to run at once. Attempting to launch the manager when it is already running will simply cause the currently running instance to become the active window.
MDSTATS shows subfolders
Click this checkbox if you want the Queue and Statistics manager to display subfolders contained in the various queues and user mail folders.
Show/Log Subject data
By default the Subject: line data is shown in MDaemon UI tabs and written into log files. Note, however, that the Subject: line can contain information the sender of a message would not wish to display and wouldn't want tracked into log files, and mailing lists can have a password which users place in the Subject: line. Therefore disabling this option is recommended.
Configuration session shows this many bytes of old logs
When running a configuration session, this is the maximum amount of log data that will be displayed on an Event Tracking and Logging tab. The default setting is 15000 bytes.
Number of accounts shown in UI controls (0=show all)
This is the maximum number of accounts that will be shown in the drop-down list boxes on various dialogs. Further, when the value in this option is set lower than the number of accounts that currently exist, the "Edit Account" and "Delete Account" options will no longer appear on the Accounts menu; you will only be able to edit and delete accounts by using the Account Manager. You must restart MDaemon before any changes to this option will take effect. The default setting is "0", which causes all accounts to be shown.
Number of domains shown in UI controls (0=show all)
This is the maximum number of domains that will be displayed on the main GUI, regardless of how many domains actually exist. After changing this value you must restart MDaemon before the changes will be visible. The default setting is "0", which causes all domains to be shown.
Number of lines shown before main log windows clear
This is the maximum number of lines that will be displayed in the logging windows of the main display. When this number of lines is reached the window will be cleared. This has no affect on the log file; only the display will be cleared.
Number of lines logged before session windows clear
This is the maximum number of lines that will appear in each Session Window before it is cleared. This has no affect on the log file.
Path or executable name of my favorite text file editor
Notepad.exe is the general text editor that the MDaemon UI will launch by default when needed. If you prefer to use a different text editor, enter its file path or executable name here.
