Correct.

In the Door, when you select Areas to Download, it should have the 
number of messages available in each Area. 
Select how far back you want to go. 
Example: if there are 1,000 mesages, but you only want the last 100 
of them: "-100" after selecting messages. 
Usually there are so few, that I just select all that are available.

Sorry, no. 
I never got into that.
