I recently posted a question to accessing windows help. I received a e-mail
reply
stating that i should click on alink in the e-mail page to access the
message. I clicked on the link and it was blank.
I ended up just loging into this site and reading my answer. In other
words,the e-mail notification doesn't work for me. ????

Yes - the web interface for accessing these newsgroups is poorly done and
*I* think - should be avoided at all costs. Utilize a newsreader of some
sort.

Hi Dick,

What E-mail Program are you using? Are you using a SpamKiller type of
program also that downloads the E-mails in the background?

I'm using yahoo. This is the only incidence that this has happened. No big
deal as at least i'm getting a e-mail notification.
I just logged into the XP discussion group again.
