Formulations
When you answer a message with MesNews automatically a formulation or introduction is added in the beginning of the reply. (example: "Arnaud has written:" followed by the text). The formulation used was chosen out of formulations available.
To see the list of formulations and make changes go to menu Settings\Formulations. You will see the screen:
The scrollbar on the right of the screen lets you look at all the formulations available. The amount of formulations is mentioned at the bottom (in example the 2nd formulation is shown of a total of 23 formulations).
To add a new formulation push the button 
and write the text of the formulation in the textzone. Then validate with the
button 
.
To change an existing formulation you have to select the formulation
(use scrollbar to find it) and the push on button 
(remark : When you click in textzone and edit the text this button is automatically
chosen).
To remove a formulation push the button

A screen will ask to confirm.
