I was going through some of the news groupls i belong to and noticed that all the messages before 11/18/2005 had dissapeared. I had some dating back as far as 08/2004. Can some tell me what has happened to them? I suspect since they were probably sitting on a server somewhere that they were either removed or deleted. I held onto them as reference material I use OE6. Only reason i still use it is i have become use to it and know how to work it fairly throughly now. I use earthlink. and i use both msnews.microsoft.com and news.west.earthlink.net from where i pull my news groups from 1.) What happened to them? 2.) Is there anyway i can recover them? 3.) I just did a compact the other day, could that of been the culprete?
You can try groups.google.com, they archive quite a few of the Usenet groups. The alternative is to reset you cache files on OE and reload the headers. I would try google first...much easier. C
Thanks. I will look into google user groups. But reseting the cach and reloading the headers in OE how far back will it take me? Any idea. Again thanks bob V
