| paul@999 | 7 | If you are already using a mail program with calendar support, imip-agent can |
| paul@999 | 8 | provide additional support for scheduling by |
| paul@999 | 9 | [[../FreeBusyPublishing|publishing free/busy information]] for other calendar |
| paul@999 | 10 | users. You can then configure your [[../MailClients|mail/calendar program]] to |

| paul@999 | 13 | If your mail program does not support calendar information or you are not |
| paul@999 | 14 | completely happy with it, imip-agent provides a simple Web-based calendar |
| paul@999 | 15 | [[../CalendarManager|management interface]] showing your schedule. Information |
| paul@999 | 16 | on this facility should be provided in messages sent by the calendar system |
| paul@999 | 17 | when events arrive. Otherwise, you can choose to visit the management |
| paul@999 | 18 | interface directly. |
| paul@999 | 19 | |
| paul@999 | 20 | The management interface provides a profile page through which you can change |
| paul@999 | 21 | your [[../Preferences|preferences]] for the software. Here, you can change |
| paul@999 | 22 | your level of participation in the calendar system and adjust its behaviour. |
