You can connect to a server as soon as you start FirstClass, without having to update the FirstClass Login form. To do this, you must use a settings file configured for automatic login to start FirstClass. [Image:81203_42521_14.png] Note For security reasons, we recommend that you do this only in an environment where other users can't access your computer. To configure the settings file: 1 Start FirstClass. 2 Choose the settings file at "Address" on the FirstClass Login form, or type the name for a new settings file. 3 Click Setup. 4 Update the "User ID" and "Password" fields on the [ fcp://@fc.onlinehelp.com,%237600229/En/OnlineHelp/Form/136 ]Service Setup form, if these are blank. If this is a new settings file, also update the fields required for your connection. 5 Select "Automatically" at "Login". To use this settings file to connect automatically, double-click it or drag it over your FirstClass application. You can disable automatic connection by pressing Control (Windows, Linux) or Option (Mac) while you open the settings file.

Viewing events Responding to invitations Sending invitations over the Internet Viewing events As is the case for messages, an event that was sent to you is flagged as unread until you open it. Opening an event lets you view all its details. In month or week view, you can see the same details you see in day view in the event's tooltip. If the event includes a mail list as a participant, you can see who belongs to the mail list by selecting it from the Scheduling tab, then choosing Open User Info Form from the context menu. Top Responding to invitations When you receive an event invitation, open the event, then click the appropriate button: Accept Accepts the invitation. Tentative Accepts the invitation, but indicates that you may be unavailable. Decline Declines the invitation and creates a reply message so that you can provide an explanation. An icon corresponding to your response is placed beside your name on the Participants tab.         Note If the person who invited you isn't on your server, she will see neither this icon nor any indication in the event history that you accepted or declined. For this reason, a reply is always created for that person. Top Sending invitations over the Internet If you invite someone who has an Internet address (an address that contains @) to participate in your event, the recipient will receive a message with a vCalendar attachment. This attachment can be imported into the recipient's own calendaring application. Top
