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.

Attachments are an integral part of the message. Depending on your
operating system, some of the temp files used for rendering images, etc.,
are not visible. You don't mention the operating system you are using.

You may have to first visit Control Panel/Folder Options and on the View
tab, enable "show hidden files." Then in Internet Explorer, click
Tools/Options and on the General tab under Settings button, click and then
click the View Files button to see the cookies and graphic files stored
therein. Unless you know the specific name of the file, it may be hard to
find but since they are an integral part of the message itself, you can
always view them by opening the message and any attachments it may have.
That would seem to be the easiest method.

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.

Ok Thanks

Too bad. Sometimes I can recover email attachments in Outlook by using the
temp folders and a graphics thumbnailing program like ThumbsPlus. Just was
wondering about if such could be done for the OutlookExpress. Apparently
not.

Actually you can. When the messages with images are opened, then they all
get put into the Temporary Internet Files folder and OE references them from
there. Their filenames do not represent the attachment filenames however,
so you would have a hard time finding them. Also they are deleted when OE
is closed.

Deleted when OE is closed or when the message is closed?
FWIW I would check with FileMon filtering on Temp.

In the case of .doc attachments they are deleted (from the TIF) when
the OE message window they were launched from is closed.
BTW that suggests that when an attached file is erroneously updated
by a Word user the update might be at least somewhat recoverable,
e.g. provided the launching OE message window was closed *before*
the last Save was done from Word.

Because the Word file was opened from the TIF, isn't the save location the
TIF unless a Save As is done?
