 window will scroll through the messages.  The Left button selects the
 message, and the Right button displays a menu of functions.  Mouse

 Use Alt-A to activate the Add-On Manager.  To start an application from
 within the mailer, use the key that corresponds to the scan code given.
 Up to 10 items can be defined.

 It is not a good idea to use certain keys as the application's hot key.
 Keys such as SPACEBAR, ENTER, plus any other key already in use by View
 should not be used as hot keys.

 Most keys, including Shifted, Alt, or Ctrl keys, can be used as hot keys.
