I keep having the problem of missing replies in different newsgroups in Vista mail. (I do get the replies normally on my PC with Outlook Express). By resetting the group in Vista Mail I can fix replies back, but... do I have to keep resetting groups now just to be able to follow a thread?

Quite new to newsgroups within vista mail. In the past when I have used newsgroups and subscribed, I manage to be able to follow posts or look at messages from weeks ago. All I seem to be getting is 137 headers or whatever there called.Tried unsubscribing, reset etc. Do newsgroups work like normal mail that once you've downloaded you need to keep a copy on the server or you won't get that message ever again I posted a message yesterday and had to online to the Microsoft online newsgroup and search for my post.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have several e-mail accounts set-up within Windows Mail (Vista). Lately, when I reply to a message it defaults to being sent from an account which I rarely use, and which is not the same as the account which received the original e-mail. I can't figure out why it's happening, or how to change it so the correct account is used.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to continue using Eudora as my default mail (the one I use for personal mail), and I would like to use Yahoo to forward messages from newsgroups. When I start to do that, Windows Mail starts the process to set up a mail account. The Internet e-mail address that is shown automatically is correct (my Yahoo mail). It asks for the mail server and SMTP server for outgoing mail, which I assume would be the information provided by suddenlink that I also use for Eudora. Then it asks for my e-mail username. The name that appears automatically is actually the name that appears before the @ sign in my Yahoo address. The next box requests the password my Internet service provider has given me. That sounds like the password for Sudden link, but I want to use Yahoo for this purpose.

downloading the headers.
In Windows Mail, if one hits TOOLS the drop down menu list shows "newsgroups" there among other options (I have Vista) and mine does NOT have it listed. Somehow I lost it. Either through an old crash, a system restore due to the crash or I somehow accidentally deleted it. (I have no idea how long ago this happened - none at all.) Now I cannot replace it on my own. I need help BADLY. I very much want it back there as there are half a dozen or so really good newsgroups I discovered recently and want to join and it would, of course, be GREAT to have that back on my drop down menu.
My questions are: How do I get it back? Where do I go to download Windows Mail again or to "repair" Windows Mail? I have way too much mail in there right now to lose. Many thousands of pieces of mail. (I'm very, very surprised they haven't asked me to "compact" yet like Outlook Express often did when I had XP - back in the good old days. If this cannot be done (not with my luck I'm sure) is there other rather easy and convenient options for me to subscribe to 6 or so of these "newsgroups"?
Obviously I am a virgin newbie to all this and do not understand the Techie Lexicon at all but am interested very much in joining these newsgroups to learn about new things as well as resolving my problems - troubleshooting. Also learning a few tips and tweaking for Windows, Vista, Foxfire and Internet Explorer is my primary interest. Very, very safe totally freeware (compatible) is a bonus if I should get lucky.
I can receive mail from newsgroups, but can't send replies. Regular email works fine. ANyone else having this problem in Windows Mail?
View 4 Replies View RelatedCan someone provide some help in searching Windows Mail? When I used OE under XP, I could search for a subject or author, obtain a list, click on the one I want -- and that would take me to the desired thread. When I do the same thing under Windows Mail, I am only able to read the specific message I click on. If I want to read the whole thread, I still have to scroll down a long list in an attemp to find it. Surely, I must be missing something? How can I go back to the functionality of locating the thread? I am using Vista Home Premium (full edition, not OEM).

The other, running Vista Home Premium and Windows Mail, won't display any of my posts or replies to threads but, others can see and reply to them and I can see my postings contained in their replies.

I'm running Vista Ultimate.
Installed Vista Ultimate 64 bit over the weekend, dual booting with my XP Pro install, so far I am finding myself liking it more and more. I have set up newsgroups in windows mail, and email access. I really like some of the features of windows mail versus the older Outlook Express, especially the calendar feature, and the spellcheck included. I use Outlook 2002 ( from Office XP ) on my XP Pro install, mainly for the calendar feature, so was pleased to see this included in windows mail. Not going to try to install Office XP on my Vista, as I understand there would be issues with that. I think what I have with Windows Mail though, will serve me ok.
I see where another program, Windows Live Mail is available as well. I checked on the link I found, and really did not see a lot about it. What is the general consensus here, is the Windows Live Mail program much better than the included windows mail program? I don't really understand what the differences are here.
I have had Vista for about a week. Still learning Win. Mail vs the old Outlook Express in XP. I have set up mail & Newsgroup accts. That seems ok. My quest. is why in Newsgroups
do I have to click *catch up* in order for the counter to clear? In OE they cleared when I went from newsgroup to newsgroup. Is this just the way WinMail works or did I miss a setting somewhere?
I subscribe to two news servers in Windows Mail - one the MS News server and one a non-MS news server. The MS News server exhibits certain weird behaviour in that several groups constantly list a small number of messages not downloaded, no matter what I do, whether I mark all read, or use the catch-up function, or Get the next 300 headers. Also the "Show Replies to my posts" function goes awry - if I set the view to that, it works on the first group I set it on, but if I go down through the group list, without changing the View from that, WM does NOT display replies to my posts, I have to uncheck it and re-check it for each group.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to figure out this whole newsgroup thing, but I'm having problems figuring out how to find the server name to put in the "Internet News Server Name Field" in live mail. I'm a member of a google newsgroup, but I still am lost as to how to get updates on live mail. I know this is an extremely stupid question, but can someone please point me in the right direction?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have several emails configured on my windows mail and one of it configured as default email. All the emails of the configured accounts show up in the dropdown list of "from" field with the default email selected while creating a new email which I can select to choice. For all emails (accounts) I have set the respective unique HTML signature using the advanced button.
My problem: When I receive email on accounts other than the default email and when I click to reply to those emails a reply window open up with the default email address in the "from" field of the reply window and with the signature associated with the default email. To reply from the email address to which I had received the email I need to select the correct email ID from the "from" field drop down list and the signature I have to change manually. Once or twice momentarily I had seen this happen automatically however not after that
WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE: When I receive emails and when I reply to those emails the reply window should open up with the "from" field sporting the email address of the account to which the email was received and with the associated signature for that account. Default emailshould not appear.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen you have a relatively new OEM product (in this case an NVIDIA motherboard) and the computer manufacturer doesn't seem to care that you are missing Vista drivers, ultimately how do you ever get through to the company? Every time I put this desktop to sleep, when I wake it up there's no Internet connection. I must fully restart the machine each and every time in order to get an Internet connection.
(I'm running a cable modem situation in a home office. I do have a router, but bypassing the router entirely does not change the situation.) The manufacturer has confirmed that this is a motherboard problem (NVIDIA's nForce 680i SLI). More specifically, they say that NVIDIA has not released an updated Vista driver to correct the situation. This situation has been ongoing for at least 8 months. Because the motherboard is an OEM product, NVIDIA won't talk with me directly. The same is true for Microsoft.

View 4 Replies View Relatedmy dodgy mail issue is back. Any HTML emails sent to me from Outlook appear as plain text and attachments are missing. I know for a fact that the gateway server they go through does NOT turn them into RTF or anything... It was all working fine and then it stopped. I am beginning to assume it's a problem intermittently caused by Norton AV (360 v3.0 I'm running). I have disabled email scanning but no dice.

View 2 Replies View RelatedMy PC has two hard drives. Windows gave me the option on boot up of proceeding with either Windows XP or Windows Vista home basic which worked fine. I then Ultimate 32 bit over the XP installation and again all seemed ok. However, the other morning I switched on the pc and got the dreaded Bootmgr is missing message. I have tried fixing using the vista disc but when it says select the OS to repair nothing is showing. If i click next and then choose the repair option it goes through the process and then you reboot but the problem still remains. I have also tried the command prompt options but they make no difference either. The Bios recognises both my hard drives are there ok.

View 8 Replies View RelatedVista has been corrupted. With previous versions of Windows it was an easy fix to just reinstall right on top of current installation - I called it an overlay. Any missing/corrupted .dll things were put right and I got to keep my data. Anyone know whether this will work with Vista? Also, this is a Gateway pc and they have some crazy partitions with a backup section that I think is just a space waster.
