Where is the "default programs control panel" in W-7?

If I were French I'd be out in the street setting fire to cars in protest....... Or even let us keep using WindowsMail by including it with the OS? It's easy enough to transfer. :-) Perhaps there's a SECURITY reason they discontinued it. Ever think of that? Sure, but WLM is so bad who would use it? I'm sure most people, except newbies, would go for something better. Thunderbird is what I'll use if serious problems develop with WM. -- Alias |

To me, Agent is one of the simplest programs ever, but in the end the thing that matters is that you (and everyone) found something that works the way you want it to work. |

Get a throwaway email addy you can use and send the complaint from that address if someone forges it. Since you are using an invalid email address there is no forgery. Huh? I don't understand; what's a valid e-mail address? Usenet providers can not sanction the person responsible for your alleged "forgery" because you can't prove you're you. The only way to get the alleged forger's account can be cancelled is if you use a real email address in your postings (and the forger also uses it). Why? Because you send the complaint FROM the real email address you post from. This proves you own that email address and someone is impersonating you. " can be used by anyone, and so can "Valorie *~", you don't own a trademark to those. Get yourself a throw-away email addy just for Usenet. It will fill with spam, but that's okay... you're using it as a post-only account just in case someone forges you. My email address is valid, but only checked maybe twice a year. Are you the forger? No, I have no interest in such shenanigans. |

Is that really OK with you? Previous text wasn't quoted properly, previous sig delimiter was ignored, your own sig delimiter is broken and misplaced, and on and on. What a mess. |

Because you send the complaint FROM the real email address you post from. This proves you own that email address and someone is impersonating you. Actually, that is not true. Despite using an email address with the '.invalid' TLD, I was able to prove a forgery, based on the Message-ID$ of a forged post. There are other ways, than a functional (which is, I think, what you really mean, not 'invalid') email address. Best way to deal with forgeries, if you want to go to the trouble, is to use a PSP signature. Works better than a functional email address. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum |

The whole point of the newsreader is to make communication easier. That means presenting it in a form that's easy for other people to read and follow the conversation.
