Wendy needs out help to get her live mail set up. I have tried to get it
going for her but it is difficult me on the east coast and she on the
west. I notice you are using live mail to post with, maybe you can give
some tips to get it right for her. Post here with any possible
information and I will email it to her. Of if you have her email you
could send it direct. I got it set up as a test on my win 7 machine and
it is a pita, but then I like agent and have been using it for 14 years
or longer.


You may be un tecky but you sure are photo savvy. Hopefully she will go
for the agent thing and then I can make it easy for her. I guess you had
someone help you with your stuff.

Thanks. We all have our strengths and weaknesses.

As far as my reader is concerned I just used what came with the machine
which I think was Windows Mail 6.0 & it seems to work okay and doesn't wind
up posting gibberish or multiple part posts (not that I planned it that way
but it was nice to discover after I saw my own posts and a few other
people's). I don't recall everyting about setting it up but I don't think
that I had all that much trouble. I know I did have to call Pacbell at one
point but the reader program has been pretty trouble free since. I used
pacbell as my news service for a while but they had very limited access to a
lot of the binary groups so I changed to Giganews a few years ago and
they've been great. I don't even have to think about them.
