OE6 newsgroup reader problem...
:) How true! Sad thing is is that I've been using OE for so long now I

OE6 newsgroup reader problem...
Ok....I'm a complete idiot. I forgot I made a backup of the dbx when I
first saw the "(1)" file. So out of curiousity I copied it to the OE
message store folder, re-opened OE and low and behold...

Ok, I just noticed something else. OE is not completely ignoring the dbx.
It has and will only download the messages since last night and still
highlights new messages that have come in that I had...

Hi Ron,
Not regularly....probably every couple of months. But in the case of the
incident today it was a "fresh" dbx as I had just downloaded all the headers
again and did in fact compact the...

Sorry, didn't mean to confuse you. I would like to clarify the problem and
possibly find a solution as it just happened again today (with the

Oops...sorry. I didn't make that very clear, did I? I was referring to the
original problem with OE "losing" my messages.

OE6 newsgroup reader problem...
Yeah, I am aware of that but never thought to mention it. Current retention
level in OE is 60 days, and I believe that's the default as I don't think

Hello,
I'm using OE6 to access the MS Usenet groups (primarily MS's own servers,
news.microsoft.com) and this is the second time this problem has occurred
