| | Re: Can't search on e-mail address in From header? Hmm, worked when I tried it before and after your post. I grabbed its Message-ID which you can use at Google Groups to search for the post, which is: http://groups.google.com/group/micro...7d7d361cf37721 Since the news: URL didn't specify an NNTP host, maybe the one that got used for you has a low retention interval. WLM doesn't let you specify which is the default NNTP server. winston wrote ...

| | Re: Can't search on e-mail address in From header? Fyi...WLM does allow one to choose the default server.(see attached). And that was the issue(not the retention interval)...and most likely caused the last time I wiped this unit and imported the iaf news accounts. -- ...winston ms-mvp mail "VanguardLH" <V@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:#Col9RKFJHA.4784@xxxxxx Quote: > Since the news: URL didn't specify an NNTP host, maybe the one that got > used for you has a low retention interval.

Works for me. Server: msnews.microsoft.com So, if Winston is using his ISP's server as a default news server he would have to either change the news default account or convert the news link into an MS news URL news://msnews.microsoft.com/ebpOUVozIHA.2384@xxxxxx BTW IE8 isn't allowing me to open news links from its Address bar any more. So, you may have to copy those to the OS Run... dialog instead. FYI Robert --- Quote: Quote: >> >> "Ildhund" wrote ...
