Re: Newsgroups

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

The first step is to ditch the clunky Web Interface where you are posting from and set up OE as your newsreader. After that, the rest is easy.

I am new to reading news. I have a few questions. 1. When I pick a newsgroup
and the messages are shown on screen are they on my computer? If they are on
my computer where are they stored? If I want to clear them out later how do I
do this? I know that when I go back to the newsgroup it knows the ones I have
opened how does it know if they are not on my computer? How do I access pages
that are not shown on screen ie groups shows 1000 messeges but only 30 or so
show up on my screen? Where can I go to learn more about how news works?

Thanks
