How to stop Windows Mail from automatically select news post
When I select a newsgroup Windows Mail will automatically also select the
first post in the group. Is it possible to turn this annoying feature off? The problem is that because a post is selected in the group Windows Mail will show it in the preview pane and if there is a large file attached to the post it will begin downloading the post and the file. Outlook Express did not select any posts when I selected a newsgroup. I like that better. Is it possible to make Windows Mail not select any post by itself? tia -- Finn Tolderlund

Unfortunately not. They decided this was a desirable feature.
You can disable the Preview pane to prevent from having to download the message and put a button for it on the toolbar. steve "Finn Tolderlund" wrote in message ...

You might also consider changing your synchronization setting to "Headers
