| | Unread messages in newsgroups How come the number of unread messages in a newsgroup doesn't get updated a lot of times until I select the newsgroup. Is there a setting I forgot to apply? Also under Outlook express I used to be able to customize the icon bar. Can I do that now? |

| | Re: Unread messages in newsgroups Actually I should have clarified. This is under Windows Live Mail. None of that works in Windows Live mail. It works under Outlook Express.
