Hello, I saw your post in that other thread. Was giving my appreciation to
PCR for his input on my question. Didn't want anymore posts about you all being unappreciated on my end. Concerning my address---does the whole thing have to be fake. Not sure Verizon will go for that. I don't know what to do at this point. Advice? "Gary S. Terhune" wrote in message ... Not sure I should answer that one! Don't worry, I send *lots* of people to that article, eg. I wrote both of those so I could stop having to write various versions of the same things twenty times a day. While the suggestions in the Security article are still current, other good apps have made it to "market" that I haven't included. Jim's pages cover those real well. -- Gary S. Terhune MS MVP Shell/User "winner5+63" wrote in message ... 2nd post: OKay I'm busted! I just read the whole Security article. Boy! You must really think I'm a hair ed. |

The whole thing has to be fake. Understand, this only works if you aren't
logging on to Verizon's own news server. Did you change the name of the server to msnews.microsoft.com? -- Gary S. Terhune MS MVP Shell/User "winner5+63" wrote in message ...

... Concerning my address---does the whole thing have to be fake. Yes. Otherwise, you may be directing spam to an innocent party. Not sure Verizon will go for that. Verizon has NO say in the matter. If you are reluctant to believe that, call Verizon Customer Service and ask them point blank. I don't know what to do at this point. Advice? Follow the detailed instructions that I gave you earlier. Just be sure that you do NOT deviate from those instructions. Do NOT, for example, change the email address in your email account. The Newsgroup account change will not affect your regular email account in any way, shape, manner or form. Just be sure that you do NOT change the email address in your email account. |

Hello! Verizon is the default news server: connection, LAN; MSNews.
Microsoft is a news server: connection, any available. Are you saying select MSNews server is the default news server? Then I sign in at the new default news server and make the change? Do I need a password or something? "Gary S. Terhune" wrote in message ... The whole thing has to be fake. Understand, this only works if you aren't logging on to Verizon's own news server.

Change the ".com" part to something else, like ".indeed" or ".yessiree" or
anything else just as nonsensical. I can easily imagine that there is a real domain out there called nicepost.com. -- Gary S. Terhune MS MVP Shell/User "winner5+63" wrote in message ...

Huh? Oh! That's right. I, I, you know, I... HAD begun to say Terhune was
suddenly nice... BUT he threatened to plonk me for it!
