<section name="DavMail Setup on Mac OS X">
<p>Either setup Java 7 from <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre7-downloads-1880261.html">Oracle JRE 7 page</a>
and use the new <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/davmail/files/">DavMail-MacOSX-Java7-<em>version</em>.app.zip</a> package
or use Apple provided Java 6 with
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/davmail/files/">DavMail-MacOSX-<em>version</em>.app.zip
</a>
</p>
<p>Note to OSX Mountain Lion users: you need to disable Gatekeeper (at least temporarily) to avoid the
warning or <code>DavMail is damaged and cant be opened</code> message.
</p>
<p>Older OSX releases include Java 5, this version does not support Tray icon,
and DavMail uses a dedicated frame instead. An upgrade to Java 1.6 will enable tray icon.
Recent OSX versions either include Java 6 or can install it automatically on first Java application
launch. However, Java support is no longer provided by Apple and Java 7 is only available from Oracle.
</p>
<p>Download DavMail Mac OSX package from Sourceforge:

<p>Safari should automatically extract application from archive. If not, just
double click on the zip file to trigger decompression. DavMail.app directory is then recognised as a
valid OSX application, except on Mountain Lion as application downloaded through Safari are marked
as invalid.
</p>
<p>On OSX Mountain Lion, open System Preferences and choose
Security and Privacy, then unlock panel with lock icon and choose Anywhere:
</p>
<div style="width: 100%;text-align: center">

</div>
<p>Launch DavMail application once (double click on the application icon).</p>
<p>You can then go back to System Preferences/Security and Privacy and restore original setting.
</p>
<p>On first start the application displays the Settings (Preferences) frame.

<p>In order to get balloon notifications, you will need to install Growl 1.2.2 from
<a href="http://growl.info/">http://growl.info/</a>:</p>
