It's easy when you write a question to these guys for it to get lost in the
crowd. So after I send a question, I'll hit refresh till I see my question
posted and I'll mark it to be "Watched." In the pain were the messages show,
at the top, there are symbols, (Looks like a pair of glasses.) Highlight
your message, click the glasses and your message is marked "watch." Go to
"View

Using web based software like Internet Explorer to read newgroups is
considered by many to give an unsatisfactory experience due to it's
limitations.

Are you asking? Telling? Who are /these guys/? You just posted this and it
wasn't directed to anyone in particular.

Actually, Ed is explaining to no one in particular how to watch a thread
in *Outlook Express*. And he's making it more difficult than it needs to
be! Here's an easier way:

View | Current View | Show Replies to my Messages

Even easier:

Ctrl + H

Ed's method is good for watched messages that don't necessarily include
his participation.

You can make a Message Rule to mark all your posts as Watched.

Sorry, I was writing to a friend, I don't know how this got sent to the news
group. But I'm glad, you gave some great advice.
