another lost info (need to get more organized!) - on newsgroups where they keep the messages for long periods of time, there is a way if you have downloaded say 200, didn't get to read them before they accidentally got deleted - to be able to go back and reset those so that the 200 messages will appear available for downloading - hope you can understand what I'm asking as hard to put it into words - Annex Cafe for example keeps their messages on their server for months and in the past when I have downloaded and then deleted from my own computer I was able to go back and download them again but needed to do a step where I reset so those 200 messages were available to me again - I've tried everything and I know it's staring me in the face but I can't see it - thanks again - Dolores To unsub or change your email settings: //www.freelists.org/webpage/pctechtalk To access our Archives: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/PCTechTalk/messages/ //www.freelists.org/archives/pctechtalk/ For more info: //www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/list?list_id=pctechtalk
