Will someone please advise me on how to adjust my newsgroups, so that all
postings are shown. My posting (which I made twice) on this computer (32bts)
has not appeared at all, but it has appeared on my new computer (also
Win.Vista but 64bts) In addition other of your postings failed to show in
the newsgroup vista.general on this computer, but are there on my new one.

Are you subscribing direct to the MS News server, msnews.microsoft.com, or
are you seeing these groups via the news server that BT Broadband supplies?
(If it supplies one?) If the latter, then I recommend that you add the MS
News server msnews.microsoft.com to your news reader.

Vista.general gets quite a few posts every day, which may exceed the
skimpy default setting in Windows Mail. Go to Tools, Options, Read,
and remove the checkmark from "Get 300 headers at a time."
Doing so will allow it to download all new headers, which is not a problem
if you have a broadband connection.
