   Hello Martin,   
      
      
    AA>> In das adressbuch aufnehman    
    AA>> In mailboxen aufnehman   
      
    AA>> The 2nd one places the name + zon:net/node number in my list of   
    AA>> contacts. Very handy.   
      
    MF> Errrrrrrm, it's the first one that does that :-))   
      
      
   SORRY..  I *did* mean to type "1st" one.   When I am constructing a message, I   
   often rearrange my sentences and paragraphs.  And, in this case, after I moved   
   things around I forgot to check if anything else needed a correction.   
      
   I'm just not used to the mono-spacing that Winpoint insists upon in the editor   
   window.  Everything is just too W-I-D-E and spread out.  I am still   
   experimenting with different fonts that might look better.   
      
      
    AA>> But what does "mailboxen aufnehman" (mailbox pickup) actually do?   
    MF> Adds the selected system to your mailboxes.   
    MF> Add to mailboxes   
      
   ..But what *is* that? What "pickup"?  Is it the POLL list?  I know what the   
   Contacts are.   
      
      
    MF> Look in "Extras/Uplinks" and you should see a new entry in the "Systems"   
    MF> pane. Click the "Properties" button..   
      
   Ah.. eureka.  I wondered why that was adding new uplinks!  So, that's it.   
      
      
    MF> I'd never seen this feature before you mentioned it but..   
    MF> Wow, this thing just gets better and better :-))   
      
   Yes.. this provides access to multiple "other-nets"  Perhaps the German for   
   the term "mailboxes" has different understanding.  For me, a mailbox is   
   something for RECEIVING mail, not POLLing (as in going out).    
       
      
    MF> Many thanks for finding and reporting this.   Regards, Martin   
      
   Well.. it was a fluke, kind of.
