The news link displays normally in OE6:
news://newsserver/newsgroup
Looking at its source code, that is exactly how it appears in the source
code as well, no extra characters or prefix. However the link is dead when
clicked, it goes nowhere. The reason is that apparently a x-usc: prefix
appears out of the blue for unknown reasons, so when hovering the mouse
over
the link it appears in the OE6 status bar as follows:
x-usc:news://newsserver/newsgroup
Where does the mysterious x-usc: prefix come from, why, and how can it be
fixed?
Yes, it is I, again. Windows Mail on Windows Vista; SP2. When I hover over
your link, the status bar does not show the 'x-usc:' address type.
Here is the result of a "copy shortcut":
news://newsserver/newsgroup
Exactly as you posted it.
