| | Downloading in Newsgroups; how do I download older headers I just set up newsgroups in MS mail and when I download headers it only downloads about a week. I know there is over a 60 day archive on the news server. I see no options to allow me to download the older headers. Thanks...doordreams@xxxxxx |

| | Re: Downloading in Newsgroups; how do I download older headers The default setting to download Headers is 300 at a time. To change that, open Windows Mail then click: Tools/Options/Read Tab/midway down under "News", change the number to 1000 which is the maximum for one download execution.

| | Re: Downloading in Newsgroups; how do I download older headers Click on Tools, Synchrinize All. This should download most, if not all of what the server has. Using the Get Next 300 can take a long time depending on how many messages the server stores.
