<section name="DavMail Setup on linux">
<p>Prerequisite : Sun J2SE 1.5 or 1.6. Tray icon is now implemented with SWT and compatible with
Java 1.5.
</p>
<p>You should first download and install Java, with the graphical package manager or through
command line.
</p>
<p>Under Ubuntu, launch System/Administration/Synaptic Package Manager, quick search
sun-java6-bin, mark for installation and click Apply
</p>
<p>Or use the following command:</p>
<code>sudo apt-get install sun-java6-bin</code>
<p>Download the linux x86 DavMail package from Sourceforge and uncompress it with
your favorite tool. The standard package will run natively on x86, to use DavMail
on any other hardware platform, replace the SWT with the right one from
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/swt/">http://www.eclipse.org/swt/</a>
or use the platform independent package. Sorry, no deb or rpm package yet !
</p>
<p>On Ubuntu and other Gnome or Kde distributions, just use the desktop launcher.
On other distributions, try
<code>davmail.sh</code>.
You should now see the DavMail gateway icon in the tray :
