Now I get it. Yea, it is good to know all the options, in case one
doesn't use Outlook Express. I'll try to remember all of that, then, in
case it comes up again. Thanks. NetZero has a mail area too, but not one
for newsgroup postings that I know of. I hardly use it, because it is
cumbersome & slow on Dial-Up. I believe, once I read an E-Mail from
there into my machine, it will disappear from NetZero's store.
Eventually, I tried to duplicate my OE rules at the NetZero store to
delete junk mail & gigantic posts. Seems like I get far fewer now into
OE.
