I'd like to modify the login box.
I've installed profile_manager and vazco_mainpage and I'm using the
German language file. In the login box the spelling is not correct:
It's E-Mail instead of Email. Can anybody please tell me the name of
the file that I have to edit? Many thanks in advance!

Don't forget to run the upgrade script ... the new set of language most probably won't without it ...
Make sure to have a look at existing language packs that are available here (so you don't have to do all your own translation). Here's one for German:
