Vista - I can't Reply to the Goup (News Group).

Hi.
When I'll try to reply to the news group, I'll get this message:

"The message could not be sent.

No sender was specified. Please check your News Account configuration"

I can't see any sender (except the news name). Either, can't see any Account
configuration. Any idea?

Regards.

I assume you mean in Windows Mail. Go to
Tools | Accounts
Click Microsoft Help Groups and click Properties.
Make sure E-mail is filled in with something in the proper format, but not
your real address.
I suggest vincentyork@nowhere.invalid

Sorry. I didn't read the subject, just the body. Still, what I suggested
is a better way to read this newsgroup than Microsoft's clunky Web
interface.

I was right the first time. When I did the second post I was somehow
convinced the Subject said Google groups. I'm going to bed.

No, I don't have it anymore.
But I do have different signatures on different machines.
