I have tried the michaelstevenstech link as you suggested. I have followed
the instructions to the letter including to retrieve 1000 which is the
maximum but the displayed messages are only for one day (11 July2004). What
I want to do is to find replies for my posting on July 10 but none are
displayed. Am I missing a step somewhere? I have tried Rules but either I
am not doing that properly or it is not allowing the search to go back far
enough. Hope this email does not come back direct to you as I was uncertain
what to select in posting a reply. It is all a bit of a mystery to the
uninformed!
