Might be best to connect directly to this NG...
To connect directly to this site, copy the following into your browser's Address Bar. After this, you will no longer need to connect through the CDO. You will use Outlook Express to access the NG. news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...gen_discussion However, (1) At "OE, Tools menu, Message Rules, News", create a Message Rule to delete posts older than, say, 40 days. Also check "stop processing more rules". (2) At "Tools, Options, Read tab", uncheck "Get xxx headers at a time". (3) R-Clk the NG in the left pane, Synchronize Settings, set to All Messages. (4) Click "Tools, Synchronize Newsgroup" (Now, it is a bit tricky. When I click one of those things, it gets right to it. One really need stop it & get that rule in. I do believe, it will then not download older than the rule specifies.) Posts older than 40 days will not download. Posts that age on your machine after the download are your responsibility to delete, by occasionally going to that rule & clicking "Apply Now". After that, compact: "OE, File menu, Folder, Compact all folders". Colorado disagrees, but there is a cave-dwelling MVP around, who says... (1) "OE, Tools, Options, Maintenance tab". (2) Uncheck "Delete news messages x days after being downloaded". (3) Uncheck "Compact messages in the background". http://insideoe.tomsterdam.com/resou...tm#setupmsnews Manual Instructions to connect http://users.westelcom.com/rogersr/setupoe.htm Read this about it too http://www.dts-l.org/ This too -- Thanks or Good Luck, There may be humor in this post, and, Naturally, you will not sue, should things get worse after this, PCR "Guitarfiend" wrote in message ... | |
