# Chapter 2. The Preferences Dialog

# 2.1. The buttons

The Preferences window is the most powerful part of KOrn. At a first glimpse you may underestimate its capabilities, but further under-the-hood you will find many ways to use KOrn.

The first tab lists your current mailboxes. As default KOrn installs "Inbox" as the default mailbox. The default "Inbox" may not fit most users needs. With this default mailbox in place KOrn will check the path `/var/spool/mail/`user`` for new mail.

The "New..." button will be covered in the next section. Please jump ahead if that is the section you need assistance with.

If you would like to remove the selected mailbox, click the "Remove" button on the right. You can also copy the selected mailbox if you don't wish to create two similar mailboxes twice.

Finally, after you have created a mailbox (see the next section), you can modify it by selecting the mailbox you wish to edit and then clicking "Modify...". This dialog contains the same options as when you click "New...".
