However, without proper configuration not all functions are available on

Are there settings to be set Eric refuses to run without on some machines?

It doesn refuse to run. There are just some functions, that are not available without prior configuration. E.g. on Debian/Ubuntu you may need to set the Qt Tools Postfix in order for the tools to be found (especially, if you have Qt3 and Qt4 installed).

++ e-mail settings as far as I can see. I'd suggest to leave it up to the user to find out. Settings requiring special attention complain at runtime anyways.
Clean alternative would be a wizzard taking the user by the hand - bit of
an overkill.

My new user, starting Eric for the first time, gets confronted
with Erics settings dialog, a little note saying: "Eric has not been
configured yet". To proove that Eric throws up an empty prefs pane.

1. are there initial adjustements necessary to make Eric work?
2. wich one exactly? Or am I expected to click my way through all prefs?
3. click... click... click it away - et voila, Eric is working out of
the box
4. ???
