Personal icon

A Personal Icon, is graphics file that appears in a mail message window.   Most commonly used Personal icons are a picture of your face, company logo, or some other symbol you want to appear in your message. This file must have a .BMP, .GIF, or .XMB extension and must measure 48 x 48 pixels.

The Personal icon feature lets you attach Personal icons to messages and view messages with Personal icons.

You can, however, view a message and see its Personal icon even if the Personal icon is not directly attached to the message. To do this, you need to create a Personal icon database and store Personal icon files that are associated with specific Z-Mail Pro users.  You can specifically set Personal icon settings so that Z-Mail Pro searches your Personal icon collection for a file that matches the sender's e-mail address (in the From text box). Then, when you view the message, a Personal icon that matches the sender's address appears in their message.

For more information about how to create a Personal icon database, refer to Z-Mail Pro online help.

If there is no Personal icon file (FACE.BMP file) that matches the exact e-mail address of the sender, then Z-Mail Pro searches up the directory path of the e-mail address for a FACE.BMP file.
