| | Post a link to a message using Window Mail for News Groups This was asked in Vista.General and my usual method no longer works. And my questions is SPECIFICALLY using Windows Mail. You can get to the server with NEWS:\\MSNEWS.Microsoft.com And you can get to this group using NEWS:\\MSNEWS.Microsoft.com\microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail However adding the link seen in a REPLY after the original poster's name no longer works. Anyone know how to make this work now? |

I don't want to have to use Google Groups or the MS Web Forum.....
