How do I see my own message posts ?
Hi
On many forums (inc some Microsoft), once you have signed in with MS Live ID you can see your own posts very easily...can't see a way to do that on MS Office Online Forums. ?! Any way to do this (to save searching...I seem to keep 'losing' posts....unless MS are removing them ?) Thanks tomhass |

Generally not wise to use the MS Discussion Group web interface. Better to
use an alternative method of accessing the newsgroups (then you might stand a better chance of seeing replies from the wider world, which the MSDG interface has been ignoring in recent weeks). -- David Biddulph "tomhass" wrote in message ...

Subject: How do I see my own message posts ? With the MS Discussion Groups web interface, start by doing one of the following: 1. Click on a message that you submitted, then click on your name next to "By" in the upper left corner. 2. Click on the "Edit your profile" icon next to Help on the upper right, then click on Preview at the bottom. Both procedures open a User Profile window. There, click on "Recent posts" in the upper right. I cannot vouch for the completeness of the results; at the very least, the order seems odd. In general, the MSDG web interface is not the best way to read and post to the microsoft.public newsgroups. ----- original message ----- "tomhass" wrote in message ...

I prefer Outlook Express. Others prefer other newsreaders. In either case,
you can use the server msnews.microsoft.com. For an archive search, I would recommend Google, and that also gives the ability to post.
