Where messages are filed.

All messages created with the send time set to 'IMMEDIATELY' will be filed as a 'SENT' message. Messages with a send time set to 'SCHEDULED' will be filed under the 'SCHEDULED' column on the Messages page until they are sent. All messages with the 'Test Message' toggled on will be filed under the 'TESTS' column. And canceling a scheduled message will result in it being filed under the 'CANCELED' column.
