I use Entourage which is the Mac version of OE, I believe. Please tell me
how to do that! Wanadoo is hopeless with this sort of thing. None of the
techies appear to know the first thing about newsgroups and freely admit
they aren't trained in any way to deal with newsgroup queries.

I'll use letters.

a) go to your main NewsReader window.

b) In the left hand pane, Right Click on the uk.rec.gardening
folder.

I don't have a right/left click mouse.

A menu should appear

c) Select [Properties]

d) Click on the [Local File] tab at the top of the dialogue box.

e) click on the [reset] button. Then close that box.

f) Then from the main menu along the top of the main Window, select [Tools]

g) And then select [ Get the next 300 (or whatever) Headers ]

The only thing I can find at present is under View and it allows me to
select to see only unread messages. I'm sure I'm missing something
extremely easy but we start with the problem that my mouse doesn't do what
you ask in your second instruction. Many thanks for trying to help. I'll
fiddle about tomorrow and see if I can improve matters somehow.
