Microsoft news groups on outlook express

Hi
---
I use the message rules for news to color my messages blue color
(see http://img115.imageshack.us/img115/6328/pic18yg.gif).

BUT

when I sign the "show replies to my messages" it show only my messages with
red color !!!
(see http://img115.imageshack.us/img115/1269/pic24bj.gif).
I do not have any red news rules !!!

What is the problem ??

Note: I do have a red rule on my local folders (mail).

This is normal behavior, from what I've seen - same thing happens here. Do
your posts show up in blue when you aren't displaying only replies to your
messages? They should.

Note that you might have more luck with Outlook Express questions in OE
groups - try microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE
6.

BoazBoaz,

That color is controlled from Tools > Options > Read tab, select color from
the drop menu called 'Highlight watched messages'. You need to restart
Outlook Express for changes to take affect.

Is it O.K. that when I turn on the "show replies to my messages" the
machine should not obey my rule to color my messages with blue ?? just keep
the default RED ??
