The newsgroup name seems to turn red when there's noting there yet. I think
it's trying to tell me that I have posted something. After I read my own
messages, it turns black. Can we fix that?

If they're not already there, put the "spectacles" in the Column Bar.
Right
click
on the Column BarColumnsAdd the spectacles in a column next to the
subject header.

Now, Go to: ViewSort byWatch / Ignore and Sort descending. When you want
to "watch" a message, click next to the message under the spectacles. This
will keep the message at the top of the list, and the newsgroup name will
change from black to red when there is a reply.

You can also Sort By | Sent with the same results. This will keep the
threads in the order they were received.

How do I use the watch feature of outlook express when working with
newsgroups? I presume this is to keep an eye on threads of interest?
