Updating settings files
You may need to change connection information for an existing settings file, or incorporate changes from another settings file (such as one supplied by your administrator) into your own settings file.
To change connection information
1 Click Setup on the FirstClass Login form.
2 Update the Service Setup form.
To incorporate changes from another settings file
1 Log into FirstClass using the settings file that you want to update.
2 Double-click the settings file that contains the updates.
If this settings file is attached to a message, you can double-click it directly from the message.
3 Click Update at the Resource Updater form.
If the settings file is large or you are on a slow connection, you may have to wait for this form to open.
Clearing resources from settings files
FirstClass can import a picture or form resource from your server as you need it; however, it will only do so if you do not already have a copy of the resource in your settings file.
If you know that there are updated resources on the server, and you want to import them, you must clear your old resources from your settings file. Clearing resources does not affect the connection information that is stored in your settings file.
To clear resources from your settings file:
1 Open the FirstClass Login form.
Don't log in. You can't clear resources from your settings file while you are connected to the server.
2 Make sure the settings file you want to clear is displayed at "Address".
3 Click Setup.
4 Click Flush Cache.
Clearing settings files from the FirstClass Login form
As you select and create various settings files, the list of files grows at "Address" on the FirstClass Login form. If this list becomes unwieldy, you can clear files from it. Cleared settings files remain in FirstClass' Settings folder, so you can still browse to select them.
To clear the settings file displayed at "Address", open the context menu from it, then choose Clear.
