Keeping Newsgroup Messages
in [Mozilla]
|
From: Raymond on 2 Oct 2008 02:13 Hi All, Is there a way of keeping replies to messages such as this sent in newsgroups? Especially in high traffic groups, I find that my replies are at times lost due to the high number of message posts. Is there a way to tag them once found so that they do not get deleted? Thanks. -- Regards, Raymond

If you're wanting to keep copies of messages you send (original or replies) you can automatically save them in your Sent folder. In Tbird, Tools - Account Settings - Copies & Folders (under the news account). -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net If you believe in telekinesis, raise my hand.

Right click on the message and select Copy to Inbox Again or Copy To and select where you want a copy to go. Also, you can save the message as a email file. Right click on the message and select Save as.

Right click on the > message and select Save as. on second thought, maybe I was wrong. There is a tag option. Right click on the message and select Tag and then select how important the message is.

If the message is deleted from the server I don't think that will help, will it? -- Ed Mullen http://edmullen.net Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest. - Isaac Asimov |
