I know it is full, but not full enough ;-)

There are still strings missing. You know which? Exactly this ones:

gchar *tooltip_types[] = { N_("x/y mailboxes contain new mail"),

			   N_("each mailbox separate"),
			   N_("each mailbox with new mail")};

Okay, if I understood everything right, the way with using #define does
not work, but the way using Arrays in connection with N_() should
work. So why does it not work???

I'm  desperate.
