Message System HELP Message Manager 1.0
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The terms "Message Board", "Conference", and "Topic" refer to any
separate message area.
All commands affect the highlited Message Board only.
<Enter> Read messages ........ Read any available messages in the highlited
Message Board. You may begin reading from
any message number, either in forward or
reverse chronological order. You may also
begin reading forward beginning with your
last unread (new) message. You may not
have access to some Message Boards.
<W> Write/Upload messages ..... Write or send a message, or on some BBSs,
you may upload a text file as "prepared
message text." You may not have write-
priveleges on some Message Boards. If
available, you cannot write messages to
your cubbyhole. If "Delete your messages"
is an option, you may be asked for a
password. You cannot later delete the
message without the password.
<D> Delete your messages ...... If available, this allows you to delete
messages that you have written. You may
be required to enter a password, if you
entered one when you wrote the message.
<S> Scan messages ............. List messages on the Message Board, with
Msg #, From, To, and Subject. You may mark
the messages to be scanned before scanning.
Marked messages are added to your "Waiting
Messages" Board.

message that ou have read/scanned. This
command allows you to reset the number to
the first message in the highlited Message

<J> Join (add) topic .......... This command only applies when doing a
"Combined Read/Write/Scan." A combined
read/write/scan will be accesible by a

Public Boards", or a similar name. When
accessing this board, only the topics/boards
that you Join will be accessed.
<F> Find Message Board ........ Allows you to enter text to search for

Message Boards which match the search are
listed, and you are given the option of
selecting the Board to "Go to".

Board you want to access, you can go
directly to it by entering the Board
number after selecting "Go to". Be aware
though that Message Boards may be added
or deleted or rearranged, possibly
changing the Board number.
