done, this shows me the telephone types and the numbers:
            <var:foreach list="account.telephones" item="telephone">
                <var:string value="telephone.type" /><html:br /><var:string 
value="telephone.number" /><html:br />
            </var:foreach>

yes, thanks for the explanation, a line like this:
<var:string value="account.telephones.type" />
shows me the array of telephone types.

where can I read about the different rules that apply?

where do I find out whether it is directly or not? At least for me, looking at
the code, the 
companyValues and telephones are added to the members array in the same way.
where and for what should I look to find out about whether they are differently
applied to 
the members array or not?

when I use these lines in the .wox template:
<var:string value="account.companyValue" /><html:br />
<var:string value="account.telephones" /><html:br />
then the contents of two EOGenericRecords are printed in the webui, one
containing the 
companyValues, one containing the telephones. Both are EOGenericRecords and the
structure 
looks similar in my eyes, so for me, no difference. Therefore I wonder why this:
<var:string value="account.email1" /><html:br />
gives me the value of email1, and 
<var:string value="account.01_tel" /><html:br />
produces an empty line.
