| | Newsgroups "Reply" broken I have been silent in the group for a couple for days. This out of a very simple reason: I had to re-install my Vista-system (out of several reasons). And now WinMail is seriously broken :-( :-( I'm now running Vista Enterprise 32 German (with SP2 and all of the available updates). Unfortunately the Newsreader-function of Winmail is broken: I can post new messages as usual. But when I try to reply to an existing message I just receive a *plain* empty page - nothing of the text of the message I'm replying to is inserted. This is terrible as I normally quote the text I am replying to. Now I am really helpless :-( :-( Has anybody any idea on what could I do to re-gain the needed functionality??

| | Re: Newsgroups "Reply" broken Sorry, I haven't come across that particular issue. Does that happen for more than one news server account? If just one, delete it and recreate the account. Did you import from a backup?

| | Re: Newsgroups "Reply" broken Thanks for the reply, Gary! And pls excuse me for the really dumb question. The problem is solved. It was too simple: On the tabbed page "Send" of the "Options" dialog the option to "Include the original message ..." was deactivated. I had just been too blind ... {siiigh} Regards Rainald Gary VanderMolen wrote: Quote: > Sorry, I haven't come across that particular issue. > Does that happen for more than one news server account? > If just one, delete it and recreate the account. > > Did you import from a backup?
