signing into these newsgroups

[Sheryl]

Every time I try to send a message I keep getting a pop up screen saying I
won't have community features unless I sign in.
I see a sign in button in the bottom of my mail program but it doesn't do
anything when I click it.
How exactly do you sign in from Windows Mail?
It looks like my messages are being posted but am I missing out on some
features?

I don't think that you are missing out on anything important. Others may
disagree. I have turned off the message.

Ok, thanks.
It was getting annoying especially since I kept answering yes but nothing
happened.

Microsoft added that function so that it would be similar to what you can do
when you use the web interface to the news groups.

yes that can get annoying, especially when after a couple of days it has
switched it self back on... happens very frequently, I have to check it
hasn't switched back on before I post... ;-(

Disable the function under you news group accounts - Windows Live I.D. -
Never Use Features.
