General
Tips
Many functions in eMule are accessible by the context menu. This is
a menu that opens on a right mouse button click on many different
objects. Also many areas and objects react on double clicks or even
middle mouse button clicks. A quick menu opens by pressing ALT
+ x. Just try out the different combinations. It is useful.

How can I add a
friend?
Friends are managed in the Messages main window. To add a friend,
right click in the Friends list and choose -> Add
Friend. You need to have following information:
• IP Address – mandatory. You got to have it. Just ask
your future friend.
• Port – mostly 4662; also mandatory
• Name – Choose any name. Not needed.
Another way to add friends is by directly right-clicking on any
source in the Transfer main window and choosing -> Add to
Friends. eMule will then fill in all required information.

How to allocate a
friend's upload slot
A right click on any friend lets you give him a friend upload slot.
This upload slot will get active as soon as the next one is free
allowing your friend to download. Friend-slots do not increase the
upload to them it just grants a normal upload slot.

How can I clear the
search auto-completion history?
Click into the search field then press CTRL or
ALT then DEL.
|
|
|
What is the meaning of the
icons in front of sources etc?
Find a detailed description in the
Icons chapter.
|
|
|
May I kick or ban other
users?
No. This function will never be implemented in eMule as it
contradicts its philosophy.

|
|
Why do I get only 201
results in a search
Searching causes a heavy load on the servers. To limit the impact
of many searching clients eMule returns a maximum of 201 results on
a search. If you want more, use the web based search Filedonkey

Should I set all my
files to high priority or release?
No. Priorities are used to favour certain files over the other. The
priorities are relative to each other, i.e. all files to low
priority is the same as all files to high or all files to
normal.
Priority for downloads influences how eMule treats the file when
searching for sources or when processing connections. Upload
priority determines which files eMule favours when someone requests
this file. Other clients who request high priority uploads will
advance faster in your queue.
