That's because you've told OE to check for new messages every xx minutes
(Tools, Options, General) AND you've told OE to include your news
account when checking for new messages (Tools, Accounts, News,
Properties, General).

Uncheck either or both of those options to avoid the problem.

After about a year with no real problems with OE6 I thought I had it
made until recently. Now, many times when I'm reading an email in a
newsgroup the line I'm reading bounces up and I have to scroll down to
get it back, quite annoying. I'm guessing this happens because
another message has come into the group, but why does it make the
current message bounce when it didn't before. What have I or the
gremilins done? Any tips appreciated.
tnx
