AMail -  Set Up Help
                               ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The setup screen has 5 options:

   A - Switch personal index on/off
   B - Select the archiver
   C - Switch archive compression on/off
   D - Set line length
   E - Include your own messages
   F - Maximum Messages
   G - New Files
   I - Bulletins
   J - Batch Pack
   K - Default Protocol
   L - Oldest Message Date

Option A enables or disables the creation of PERSONAL.IDX, which is used by
         some mailers to display your own messages.

Option B allows you to choose the archiving method you wish to use (ARC, LZH or
         ZIP)

Option C allows you to tell AMail not to let the archivers pack anything, but
         just to let them store the mail in an archive. (ie, uncompressed store
         for use with fast modems, when you don't care if it takes 30 seconds
         to download 100K!)

Option D allows you to set the maximum line length that a message will occupy.
         This may have the side effect of reformatting messages from the
         original. It is useful for those readers which don't scroll the screen
         sideways.

Option E specifies whether you wish to include your own messages. (ie, those
         you uploaded last time)
                              
Option F allows you to specify the maximum number of messages in one packet.

Option G allows you specify whether you want to receive a list of new files

Option I allows you specify whether you want bulletins

Option J (if displayed) allows you to have your mail packed overnight, and
         to pick it up when you feel like it. This means that all the hard
         work is done overnight, and free to you.

Option K lets you set a default protocol that will always be used. If this
         is set, it will bypass the protocol selection bit.

Option L lets you set the oldest message date that is going to be packed.
