Newsgroup automatic download
Presently, I have to click on "Sync All" to download
all my newsgroups. However, e-mail is automatically downloaded every 5 minutes. Is there any way to have newsgroups automatically downloaded also? |

Tools | Options | Read. Uncheck: Get XXX headers at a time.
Also, unless this post was sitting in your Outbox for awhile, your clock is off. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP - (IE/OE) ~IB-CA~ "Miles" wrote in message ...

Thanks. I think that did the trick.
That post did sit in my Outbox for a while. The computer was quite busy downloading from a slow newsgroup server. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Bruce Hagen" wrote: Tools | Options | Read.

It appears that the message bodies are not automatically being
downloaded for the newsgroups I have specified that to occur. I see the note at the bottom of the screen that says newsgroups are being checked right after e-mail is automatically checked. Is it just downloading the subjects of the posts? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Miles" wrote: Thanks. I think that did the trick. That post did sit in my Outbox for a while.

I don't know what is causing this. It should be downloading the posts. The
only thing I can suggest is creating a new identity and testing it. Hopefully someone else will have an idea. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP - (IE/OE) ~IB-CA~ "Miles" wrote in message ...
