Hitherto (what a good word for a freezing Friday P.M. !!) I've accessed this
ng via Outlook Express and my ISP ng server.
Having enabled the "Help" function on Start menu (thanks to advice from you
good people) - I just followed the thread to access this ng via the Web.
Not a good experience. MS Web page takes forever to load, but much more
serious is that messages and threads go missing in large numbers ("sorry
this thread not available - try later") despite them being fully functional
via OE/ISP server.
The Web page is an excellent idea - sorting queries by type - but the
limited functionality lets it down.
It's not my set-up - cable access, and I've just paid a couple of bills via
secure server, so know the Web is running fine.
Disadvantage of OE/ISP access is thousands of messages, (10,594 right now in
this ng) no "sort" except date - but right now it functions far better than
accessing via XP help/the Web, since all messages headers are visible and
downloadable.
Second disadvantage is (unless you remember switch OE between On- and
Off-line) that bloody SPAM keeps getting in, despite Mailwasher.
This is not a complaint, but constructive "user" comment. Perhaps MS can do
something about it ?
Sincerely, Len
