Many questions. Let me try to anser some:

How do they appear in your columns?

They should. They do here. What dates are shown in your messages of
today?

Two possiblities:
1.) On an account level: Account/Properties.../Templates/New Message.
2.) On a folder level: Folder/Properties/Template.

Dunno.

The Bat interprets "received" as "received by this computer".

View/show Kludges, or: ctrl-shift-K.

You can't. It means you have unread mail.

Not in all products. However, this feature has a name (which I
forgot), and is useful for many people. You can hit "end" and then the
cursor will go to where you want it to go.

I don't think that happens here.

Account/Properties/Templates/Reply. Here you have several choices what
to use for quotation.

I don't understand "wrap for display" as opposed to "wrap".

Try F5. You cannot customize this in this version.

- I saw this somewhere, but cannot find it at the moment.
