Oulook Express Att PA Bear

Thanks for you reply.

Neither of my messages from 13th or 16th is shown in the
microsoft.public.windowsxp.general newsgroup.

What is most peculiar, if I do a simple search (shift+F3), none of my
messages are
found.

If I do an advanced search (ctrl+shift+F), my messages are shown, but I can
not see if there are any replies - because the messages are missing from the
newsgroup itself!

Have you come across this or is there an explanation for this peculiar
behaviour?

I am using WindowsXP with OE version 6.

Thanks

John Louis

Always reply to the original thread (assuming you can find it).

Are you accessing this and other newsgroups using the MS newsserver
news://msnews.microsoft.com?

If you download only headers and not the messages bodies, Shift+F3 will have
nothing to search on until you read a given post and OE downloads the
message.

Check View>Current layout to see if a setting is "hiding" other headers.
Also check your News message rules and Blocked Senders lists.[/QUOTE]
