Set Common Mail preferences

To enable user mail preferences such as signatures and the default text style used to compose mail, you define the appropriate properties in a property extension database.

You can configure the following user mail preferences:
ibm-lwpPIMMailSignatureType

Whether the signature contains rich text or plain content

ibm-lwpPIMMailSignature

The actual content of the signature

ibm-lwpPIMMailIncludeMsgSignature

Whether to include the signature in email messages

ibm-lwpMSGMailComposeWithPlainText

Whether to compose email messages using rich text or plain text by default

For detailed instructions on setting up a property extension database and defining parameters, see the appropriate topic for OS (for example, Configuring a property extension database on Windows). Keep in mind that add each parameter one at a time. For example, after you set up the property extension database and propagate security changes, open wkplc.properties, add the first required parameter, save the updated file, and then run the task to add the property. Repeat this process for each parameter that you want to add.

   la.propertyName=ibm-lwpPIMMailSignatureType
