Selecting Conferences Help
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Selecting conferences in the most important part of using the QWK mail
door. Here you select what type of messages you want to read by joining
message areas with the (J)oin function. You can do this many areas at a
time by seperating the area numbers with a space. For example "1 34 23"
would join the three areas listed. You will then be asked a series of
questions.
Receive what type of messages? (A/p/g/?) if you are not sure of what the
letters A/p/g mean, press "?" for a decription of each. Recieve messages
written by yourself? Usually you would select "No" here unless you want
to download messages you had already written and sent. Apply Filters or
Apply Keywords? If you have defined any keywords or filters (or plan to)
this is where you can apply them to the areas you wish them to work on.
Start from your last message read? Normally you would select "Yes" but
sometimes - if you are joining a busy conference - you might not want to
start from the first message if you haven't read any messages before, in
this case, you can select the number of messages back you'd like to go.
The most common setting is General type messages with keys and filters.
