How do I find my question and see the answer?

[rbobb16]

I just want to scream. I got an e-mail from Microsoft, see below. I clicked
on the link and it opened a blank page. I went back to the forum on my own
and I've spent 20 mins searching for my question. I can't find the darn
thing. I need help and this is wearing me out.

Do yourself a BIG favour and ditch the horrible web interface. Use a news
reader instead.

Its in the Office.misc group

Life would be simpler for you if you set up and used the win default
newsreader - Outlook Express or Windows Mail, depending on o/s

Disregard, I found it by searching in Office General Questions, my mistake.
Still the link sent by Microsoft did not work.

Thank you to both of you, Gordon and DL. I am out of my league here I guess.
I have no idea what either of you are referring to when you say use a
newsreader. The OS is Windows Vista Ultimate, and I am using Outlook 2007
Trial version. Would you kindly give me more details? Thank you so much.

 

[rbobb16]

Thank you both, Gordon and DL. I did locate the original question, my mistake
on location. Now you've both referred to something called a newsreader. I am
out of my league on this, I have no idea what you're both referring to. Can
you please provide more info?

For future reference, follow these steps. It will be a WORLD better than
using the web interface:
