All attachments are embedded and encoded in the original message. Each
newsgroup has a corresponding DBX file holding all the messages for that
newsgroup.

DBX files are not in a format that is easily accessible outside of OE.

Where are the newsreader graphics temp files stored? I know where they
are in MS Outlook but cant find them in the Outlook Express. When I
read a NG message with binary attachments they take a while to load
but then when I go back to that message they load very fast,
indicating that they binarp graphic files are being stored somewhere
on my computer. I am assuming that they stay on the system in a temp
file but maybe not, and maybe they are dumped after exiting. (I know
that MS Outlook does not do a dump unless it is done manually)

I found that the NG subscriptions are inthe identites folder under
local settings, Would have thought hat there would have been a temp
folder undr that but not so.


Any help would be appreciated.
