Windows Mail for news only

[Skip Bremer]

What is the command line to make windows Mail come up without showing local
folders?

Thanks.

I found it--surprisingly it's /newsonly

although the local folders stay but at least it's focused on the first new
account. If I collapse the local folders at least they stay that way. I
guess that's as good as it will get...

What is the command line to make windows Mail come up without showing
local folders?

Try:

"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" /outnews
"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" /newsonly
"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" /news
"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe" /mailonly


Some of them will have different effects, like changing icon or not, and
getting rid of Inbox, etc.

I'm using XP at the moment, so I cannot check if all of them work with
Windows Mail like they do with OE6.
