Undocumented settings

Modifying any of the following settings is completely unsupported by DigiPortal Software. We cannot provide any help with making these changes or correcting any errors introduced by making these changes. Any changes you make based on the information below is done at your own risk.

Make sure you have closed ChoiceMail One (Actions | Exit) before making any changes.

Splashscreen
Starting with ChoiceMail One version 2.2, the startup splashscreen can be disabled by adding a line to your choicemail.ini configuration file. This file is found in your main ChoiceMail folder.

1) Open choicemail.ini using a text editor such as notepad. Do NOT use a word processor such as Microsoft Word.

2) Somewhere in the file (usually at the top but not necessarily) will be a section name called
[display]
followed by a list of entries.

3) Insert the following line exactly as written directly below the [display] line
splashscreen=no

4) Save the choicemail.ini file and restart ChoiceMail One


Activity logs

Starting with ChoiceMail One version 2.2, the maximum number of lines displayed in each tab of the activity logs can be changed from the default. Note that too large a value can cause ChoiceMail to crash, particularly on older operating systems such as Windows 98 and ME.

1) Open popmanager.ini using a text editor such as notepad. Do NOT use a word processor such as Microsoft Word.

2) Add the following 3 lines exactly as written at the bottom of the file.

[misc]
maxtotallines = 30
maxlinelength = 128

(You can change the numbers to suit your requirements. The ones shown here are the default values that are used when the section is not defined in the file)

3) Save the popmanager.ini file and restart ChoiceMail One.
