Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Mail / May 2008Downloading in Newsgroups; how do I download older headers
I just set up newsgroups in MS mail and when I download headers it only downloads about a week. I know there is over a 60 day archive on the news server. I see no options to allow me to download the older headers. Thanks...doordreams@gmail.com The default setting to download Headers is 300 at a time. To change that, open Windows Mail then click: Tools/Options/Read Tab/midway down under "News", change the number to 1000 which is the maximum for one download execution.

If that's your name for Windows Mail, try clicking on Tools, then Get Next 300 Headers whenever you want more. Click on Tools, Synchrinize All. This should download most, if not all of what the server has. Using the Get Next 300 can take a long time depending on how many messages the server stores. >I just set up newsgroups in MS mail and when I download headers it only > downloads about a week.
