Accounts Editor

Your email accounts can be added, updated, and removed using the accounts editor. To open it, click Geary’s application menu button in the main window above the folder list, then click Accounts in the pop-up menu.

To change the order that accounts are displayed in the folder list, click and drag the handle for an account in the accounts editor, or focus an account with Tab, then use Ctrl+ and Ctrl+ to re-position the currently selected account.

Adding accounts

Geary will automatically use any email accounts you have added via the Online Accounts panel of GNOME Settings. If you do not have any accounts added to Online Accounts, you will be prompted to add an account the first time you run Geary.

To add additional accounts, open the accounts editor, then choose the appropriate email provider from the list at the bottom of the window. For providers supported by Online Accounts, GNOME Settings will be opened and you will be asked for your account information there. For other email providers, you will be asked for your account information by Geary. Once entered, click Create and the account information will be checked and then added.

Updating existing accounts

To update existing accounts, open the accounts editor and choose the account you wish to update. Geary will display settings for the account. From there, you can add and remove additional sender email addresses, edit your email signature, and various other settings.

The Download mail setting allows you to configure how much mail Geary will download and store locally. Geary can only use locally available mail when displaying and searching for conversations.

To edit the server settings for the account, scroll to the bottom of the window and click Server Settings. The server settings will be displayed and you can click to edit them. Once done, click Apply and Geary will check the settings, then update the account. Note that accounts added via the Online Accounts panel of GNOME Settings cannot have their server name, security, login, or password settings changed.

The Save draft email on server checkbox controls whether the composer will save copies of email messages being written in the Drafts folder. If de-selected, you will not be able to save draft messages when closing the composer.

The Save sent email on server checkbox controls whether Geary will save copies of email that have been sent to the Sent folder. If de-selected, you will no be able to see any email messages you have sent, unless your server automatically saves them for you.

Removing accounts

Accounts added via the Online Accounts panel of GNOME Settings must also be removed from there. To do so, open Online Accounts, select the account, and click Remove.

To remove an account added via Geary, open the accounts editor and choose the account you wish to remove. Geary will display settings for the account. Scroll to the bottom of the window and click Remove Account. You will be prompted to confirm removing the account. Once confirmed, if you change your mind you can still undo removing the account by clicking Undo in the popup notification, or by typing Ctrl+U.
