                    a new boards/userlist. The sence of that is that if you
                    kill several boards/users the system does not create a new
                    list every time.
                    But after killing the last board/user you MUST (!) answer
                    this prompt with `J` because a wrong list will case a

                    `SCANNER`, but nevertheless you can change into the board by
                    typing `BOARD <NAME>`.
Mark -              Show a marked board from now.

                    The name of the board will be added `NET-` with activated
                    NET-Mail and `LOC-` with activated Local-Mail, but it mustn`t
                    be entered !

                    <W>  - Forward the msg to a board/user.
