Now in OE. First looking at this in the Preview pane, with the Preview pane
header. Newsgroup names are not copyable there either. I hardly ever open
newsgroup messages in their own windows. And you still haven't explained
*why* you need this supposed feature.

In what?
I can in this program. You're posting this in two newsgroups about
different, although related, programs, so I thought I'd post with the one
that came between them.

Do you mean these "newsgroup addresses"?

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress,microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop

I just clicked on the "Reply Group" button, and got a message compose
window. The Newsgroups are listed in the header fields (I have my View set
to "View all headers"). It is just a "copy and paste" to get from the
address field to the message field.

Right in this newsgroup message...

Open the message.

Then Copy and Paste the Subject Line with the mouse = Joy.

Try to Copy and Paste the Newsgroup Line with the mouse = No Joy.

I'm trying to find out why.

Does it have something to do with preventing bots from harvesting
addresses? -- because email addresses also cannot be copied and pasted with
the mouse.

OR perhaps I need to tweak some obscure setting in WLM?

Seems to be the same in MS Outlook Express as in Windows Live Mail. Not sure
where you are unable to copy from in MS Outlook Express. In my copy, the
header bar shows two lines. First line has, "From:" and "To:" in bold,
followed by the relevant information. Second line has, "Subject:" in bold,
followed by the relevant information. None of it can be copied.

However, when I click on the "Reply to Group" button, I get a message
compose window, same as in Windows Live Mail. And I can copy from the
"Newsgroups:" address field, same as in Windows Live Mail. I did not test
this while composing the reply in Windows Live Mail; but, in both programs,
whether "View" is set to "All headers", or not, the "Newsgroups:" field is
available, and the newsgroups in the field can be copied, and pasted. Thus:

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress,microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop

I don't see any difference in the operation of MS Outlook Express and
Windows Live Mail in this regard.
