| I made it, Phil. Now, how do I cross-post? I read someone's
| instructions on that but I'm a blind user and could not see the images | described. _____ To crosspost, add the extra newsgroups in the 'Newsgroups:' line of the message window. Separate newsgroup names with commas. For example: microsoft.public.security.virus, alt.comp.hardware.overclocking, alt.comp.anti-virus Only crosspost to related newsgroups, and try to keep the number below four.

Your ISP has a name and a webpage. On their webpage they
will have a FAQ, HELP or setup page. You will find instructions for setting up the email service. This is what I have on my ISP, Cox cable... Email Server News Server POP Server: pop.central.cox.net SMTP Server: smtp.central.cox.net news.central.cox.net Your ISP probably has a telephone help line. They have a webpage, YOU need to do a little research on your own.

... I made it, Phil. Now, how do I cross-post? Click on the word newsgroups at the top and add the other newsgroups. Or, type a comma and then the name of another newsgroup. Don't do a lot of this or you'll get ignored. Normally posting in one newsgroup is plenty. -- Frank Saunders, MS-MVP OE/WM Reply in newsgroup http://www.fjsmjs.com "They who would give up an essential liberty for temporary security, deserve neither liberty or security" |

| CHEERS JIM , THATS GREAT MATE _____ You are shouting again. As has been posted before, the names you need to enter to set up Outlook Express for email and Usenet newsgroup access you MUST get from your ISP that provides you Internet access. #1. Start Outlook Express and left click on 'Help' #2. Read the 'Getting started with Outlook Express' contents, which include " You will need the following information from your Internet service provider (ISP) or local area network (LAN) administrator: a.. To add an e-mail account, you need your account name and password, and the names of your incoming and outgoing e-mail servers. b.. To add a newsgroup, you need the name of the news server you want to connect to and, if required, your account name and password. " #3. You should already know your ISP account name and password (otherwise you could not use the Internet). #4. The name of the incoming and outgoing email servers you MUST get from you ISP. My email server names are NOT the same as yours. No one else here knows the name of these servers unless they happen to have the same ISP as you do. #5. The name of the news server you MUST get from your ISP. My news server name is NOT the same as yours. No one else her knows the name of these servers unless they happen to have the same ISP as you do. #6. There are a few other settings your ISP may require, and ONLY your ISP knows what those additional settings are. Once your ISP helps you set up Outlook Express correctly (it should take less than two minutes), it is very likely that you will never have to use the server names again.

I'll give this a whack since I just put in new identities because my OE
corrupted. If you have msnews.com in your News Accounts then it should be on the bottom of your OE folder list. Then you click on it and you'll get a list of MS ngs to join...look for microsoft.public. and then the one with oe in the last part...Then click, Join, and OK, and it will upload the newsgroup messages for you.

RA its "msnews.microsoft.com" that you must put in the New News Account.
Also, your ISP or DSL, etc has to give your their login...like "news.junior.com" to created a new News Account with first. It should be on their website, or call their toll free #.
