As a new user, I would actually disagree with this.
Easy to use features are good for a manual. The more advanced features
are better described by a person.
While I can understand the desire for a complete manual, the 'average'
user just needs to get up and running, make a few filters, and away
they go.
It is the advanced user that will want to do weird quirky things, that
quite simply it is NOT good to have a manual for. Otherwise you get
casual users mucking up trying to do things they really don't need to,
because they THINK its neccessary to filter a message or such, and
hence they get lost.
