This is not in my registry. I checked and my CS major DS checked it.
Any
other ideas?

Thanks.

That's an old setting.

Look in the registry at
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Identities\{guid}\Software\Micro soft\Outlook
Express\5.0\News

for the key
Cache Compact Percent

and give it a value between 5 and 100.

The {guid} will vary depending on your installation

Where do I enter this info? I can't seem to figure it out and I'm

newbie.
