"001": upper limit for the range. Controlled by the range, incr and increment boxes. Used by
the range box to set up range between the displayed message number and the current value
in this box. This is for advanced use only. You can view, delete, save, reply and
edit this range of messages. For example if you want to view messages between message
numbers 21 and 31 and if the current values for all counters are 001 as shown above,
you can perform either
Move the cursor beside the message number 21 in the header list in the top window and
click the left mouse button. Now select the set counter box. You will see that the message
number box displays 021. Next move the cursor beside the message number 31 in the top
window and click the left mouse button. Now select the range box. You will see that
the UpperLimit box displays 031. You can finally select the view box to view those
messages between message numbers 21 and 31;
