    AA> Let's see..   
      
    AA> Ungelesen = Unread   
   Yep, lists all unread messages.   
      
    AA> Behalten =  Keep   
   After playing about with this one, I can't figure out what it's     
   supposed to do. If I set it, the Schema field goes blank and all     
   messages dissapear from the message list.   
      
    AA> Importiert = Imported (?) ..but what does that mean?   
   Sorts the message list on received(date).   
      
    AA> Abschicken = Send  ..is that to resend a message?   
   Nope, it lists all unsent messages.   
      
    AA> Verschickt = Sent   
   Yep, lists all sent messages.   
      
    AA> Losschen = Delete   
   That's the literal translation but it exhibits the same behaviour as     
   "Behalten".   
      
    AA> And each one has three options:   
      
    AA> Ignoriern = Ignore?   
   Ignore, as in "do nothing" :)   
      
    AA> Gesetzt = Set   
   Yep.   
      
    AA> Geloscht = Deleted   
   Dunno what this is supposed to do and I would treat it with caution.   
      
    AA> And all that is available with each Schema (scheme/approach/plan):   
      
    AA> Alle Mails = All messages   
    AA> Ungelesene Mails = Unread messages   
    AA> Ungelesene Mails an Sysop = Unread to Sysop   
    AA> Gelesene Mails = Read messages   
    AA> Mails an Sysop = messages to Sysop   
    AA> Verschickte Mails = Sent messages   
    AA> Unverschickte Mails = Unsent messages   
    AA> Mails vom Letzten Poll = messages from the last poll   
    AA> Ungelestene mails vom Letzten Poll = unread messages from the last poll   
    AA> Mails aus der Letzen Woche = messages from the last week   
    AA> Mails aus der Letzen 2 Wochen = messages from the last 2 weeks   
    AA> Mails aus der Letzen 3 Wochen = messages from the last 3 weeks   
    AA> Mails aus der Letzen 4 Wochen = messages from the last 4 weeks   
   Yep, all that's good :)   
      
    AA> (Feel free to use the above for your user-guide.)   
      
   Thanks for that and I'll mark your message as "Hold".   
      
    AA> Looks like Winpoint has a wealth of settings for sifting through hundreds   
    AA> of messages when you need help to track down particular ones.   
      
   Yes, it does indeed appear to be very powerful and many thanks for     
   taking the time and trouble to do the translations and post them in     
   here.   
      
   Regards,
