# Using an external editor

You can compose the body of your message externally in your favorite text editor application so you can use its specific functionality. Enable Edit Plugins External Editor and set the corresponding Command to start the application under Configuration.

If Automatically launch when a new mail is edited is not set, you need to select File Compose in External Editor in the mail composer.
