Hi there.....are you in every news group on the planet?? (G) Perhaps
you can answer the Outlook question I asked. Just posted it in OE, of
course. But these folks are the ones I know from way back........other
than that poseur, Hines.

Cheers......Heather

A poster's method of posting has nothing to do with the group's
purpose. Had he used netcat would he be restricted to groups
about whatever he chose to put in the headers?

Maybe it's his other computer. Maybe it's a friend's computer - OK
maybe *that's* a stretch...but maybe he paid someone to let him use
their computer.

You can never be sure about header information's authenticity.

Same goes for version information - which reminds me of the
times I posted with AVG's signature [spam] modified to show
a newer database file than anyone else had.

About what? I did not write about versions of OE.

your OE version is not even current

How is that relevant to my post, this thread, these OE newsgroups
or to anything at all?

Have you started using Windows Live Mail?
It is free and you can download it from MS website.

Yeah, posting an outlook question in an OE newsgroup just because you don't
recognize names in the Outlook group? DUH!

Obviously you missed the point that these are the MVP's I have known for
a decade. And also obviously, you are not one of them. Any particular
reason you felt the need to be rude? PMS or that sort of thing?

[My dear, you do NOT want to partake of this sewer of a thread!]

Where is BEAST when we need her? I've got Delta Force now. He's 25 lbs.

ROFL!! I have been in Toronto all day and you cracked me up with this!!
We still have Casey the 17 lb. Wonder Puss.....think he is 12 or 13 now.
Glad to *read your face* again, grin.

But it loses quite a few functions.

Is there no way to cajole/hack/sacrifice to the gods, a way to get OE6
running on a Vista box?

No, the only way to use OE on a Vista machine is to run another OS (e.g. XP,
Win98) in a Virtual machine environment and post and mail from that.

Ugh, that's a shame. OE has been a reliable, simple mail client for me for
several years. I've tried using WLM and it's just not what I need. I'd be
more inclined to switch to Thunderbird well before I'd put up with WLM.
Chalk up another lost user due to MS destroying yet another product through
removing functionality.

They don't seem to realize that users have an intimate relationship with
their mail client.

It's the part of the OS which they see and use the most, every day.

So Microsoft needs to put its best foot forward and make the mail client
really shine and be powerful, yet elegant and glitch-free.
