Windows Mail ...??? Outlook Express????

Supposedly Windows Mail is the replacement for Outlook Express. But while I
have selected the same newsgroup as I had on my old laptop, the newsgroups
are not the same newsgroups as I had on my old system. The new setup seems
to have a wide variety of newsgroups, but none seem to have attachcments to
them: I used to go to a site for older Plymouth / Dodge cars (like in the
50's) and people had photo attachments showing what condition the vehicle was
in, etc. None of the new sites have pic attachments to them. Are they being
filtered someplace?

Re: Windows Mail ...??? Outlook Express????

Are you using the same news server as before? Which server is it?

Many of the larger ISPs have recently eliminated or severely curtailed their
newsgroups coverage, see
