I have seen 4 messages by you since Monday of this week. Please
post your query again using this link:

<news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook.general>

The above link will open Outlook Express or Windows Live Mail to
read and post messages without logging in on the MS server.

Hope this helps.

First, your attributions were weird. Second, Google Groups apparently has
not archived the posts in this thread. So I may not have properly fixed the
attributions.

Third: You are not posting to a web forum. Despite that Microsoft has done
everything in your power to make it look so, it is not so. You are posting
to a news server, which is best accessed using a news client. My news client
has found the following posts of yours:

My news client is set to purge posts older than a date I have set, so there
may be older posts on the server that I don't see because my client purged
them. The purging of older posts depends first upon the retention policy of
the server, second upon the preference of the new client user. Posts may
still be on the server, yet purged from my post list, because my personal
preference is not to keep old posts around very long.

A news client, such as MS Outlook Express, usually does a better job with
news groups than a Web browser for accessing news groups.
