Define Key Words for Mail Searching.
With this option, you can select key words, phrases, or people you wish
to read mail or join in conversations. You will always get mail address
to you personally. But with keywords, you can include mail such as mail
to "ALL", and "DR. DEBUG", subject areas such as "HELP", "OS/2", or
anything else. Upto 20 Keywords can be defined.
By prefixing the keyword with a negative sign (dash), keywords will work
the opposite. Negative keywords will skip messages containing the
keywords. This is a message filtering process.

Receive your own mail.
This option allows you to include your most recent mail in your mail
package. This is the mail from yourself to others. If you set this
option to NO, you will not receive mail you have written to others.

Receive Group Mail.
Xpress supports a feature Group Mail. A sysop can send general mail to
!ALL! users. This type of mail will be picked by Xpress and ADDRESSED
directly to you. If the sysop has given you permission to use it, you
too can use this feature.
If you have this option enabled, all group mail messages will have it
directed to your name. If it is off, group mail may or may not get picked
up. It depends if it is a public or private group message.

Use Packet Counter
If this option is YES, Xpress will keep a count of the packets you
downloaded. The count will be used as an extension to the packet name.
For example, XPRESS.O04 or XPRESS.Q55. Xpress will go as high as 99 and
wrap back to 1.
To reset the packet counter back to 1, turn off the option and then
turn it back on.

Send Selected Areas Only
If this option is YES, Xpress will only send the mail areas you have
selected for scanning to the Xpress Mail Reader. This allows the reader
to focus on your areas of interest when entering new mail.
Keep in mind if you have this option ON, you will not be allowed to post
mail in other areas that were not selected.

Use Flex Assistant
Silver Xpress has an interactive system for its mail bundling process
called Flex Select. With Flex Select, you can control precisely how
much mail you wish to download.
With the Flex Assistant set to YES, Xpress will scan for mail in each
area and, if any mail is found for the particular areas, the Flex
Assistant will ask for the Flex Options. It is a quick and smart way to
learn the Flex Select system in Silver Xpress.

Show Mail Areas With Mail Only
When this option is set to YES, Xpress will only show the mail areas
which have mail. Mail areas with no mail are not displayed in the mail
scan report table.
This is particularily useful if you have many selected areas to be
scanned and often, no mail is available in most areas. With this option
OFF, your scan table could scroll off the screen, sometimes making it
difficult to use the FLEX SELECT system.

Change Mail Pointers by Date or Number
Some versions of Xpress allow you to change last read numbers by using a
date. Others do not have this capability and thus allow you only to
change the last read number directly.
The last usage date is normally used only if you want to change the scan
date for new messages. For new users, Silver Xpress will always prompt
for this date when you first get on. This is basically an option to
change it.

Restore Mail Pointers
This option will reset the mail pointers to the value(s) before
starting Silver Xpress.
