The Help Menu
Contents
This option brings up the online help window. The Polarbar Mailer help files are ordinary HTML web pages. This means you can also use the online help window as a simple web browser. That's the purpose of the URL field at the top right. The only part of this window that isn't self-explanatory is the Toggle Contents button on the toolbar; it toggles the window between the normal display with the Contents and Index on the left and the browser section on the right, and just the browser section filling the whole window.

 
Mailing List...
This launches the pre-selected Web Browser (which defaults to the WebKit HTML browser) at the Polarbar mailing list subscription web page.

 
Support...
If you run into problems with Polarbar Mailer, this option allows you to view existing issues and create new issues for the development team to address.

 
Check for updates...
Polarbar is able to check if it's the latest version and if not, allows you to update the application (if permissions allow). Select this option and Polarbar will request from the main web site the latest version number and let you know whether you are running the latest version or not.

If you select the Yes button to update Polarbar, a download will immediately start and Polarbar will automatically update the proper files to the newer version. It will then exit and restart itself once the application files are updated.

If you select the No button, it closes the dialog.

If you select the Download Only button, the download an internet file dialog will appear and you can save the file to a name of your choice, in a location of your choice.

If you select the Skip this Version button, Polarbar will no longer consider this newer version as appropriate to upgrade to and further checks will only notify you of a newer version than this one.
