Hello Ken,
I have Microsoft Communities activated in my Windows Mail. Are they the
same as what you described "Microsoft Newsgroups "? I realise that at
least most of my posts reappeared in one of those MS Comm., but I don't
use them because I don't like the setup, ie. those (+) and (-), and most
important of all I'd like to be notified if I had a reply to my post(s)
which is not available there. But if that's not the same as yours, then
I'll have to ask my ISP for the name of NNTP , whatever that is. Unless
you can shed some light to this matter.Thank you.
