I've also been thinking about that sentence. I came to the following 
result:
Apart from the template-macro the entire "more"-section is the 
possibility to test the settings you made in the upper section. The 
sentence "If a message will be finished now, it will be sent ..." in 
the upper section shows the dispatch date/time when the message will 
be finished _now_.

The lower section allows you "to watch into the future". In fact it 
has no effect on the dispatch date/time of the message whose settings 
you're currently editing.
An example: Today it's Thursday, 28.05.2009. But you might ask the 
question, "Hey, what if i wrote a message tomorrow at 11 AM and set it 
for a delayed dispatch 1 day and 2 hours later, when would that 
message be sent?"
The lower section allows you to answer that question. In the lower 
section set date to 29.05.2009 and time to 11:00 and in the upper 
section set Add days: 1 and Add Hours: 2. The sentence in the lower 
section tells you that the message hypothetically created tomorrow at 
11 AM will be sent on Saturday, 30.05.2009 at 13:00 (1 PM).
Of course this "test-section" has only an effect when using relative 
date/time values (add days, hours, minutes) it doesn't make any sense 
when using an absolute date/time setting.

This message became longer than expected. I hope i could help.
