That's an idea.  While looking at that I found confusing that the
sentence "Setting this parameter to zero disables status updates
completely" was completely separate of the rest, where it sounds like
even forced messages are disabled if the parameter value is zero, but
I think that we should outline that this only applies to the scheduled
replies.  Attached is what I get.  What do you think?
