The pc i use posting to this group is this one which has xp and outlook 
express.  The one I'm having trouble with is a *new* one with Win7, internet 
explorer9  and windows live mail.

I was quite happy with outlook express especially as i could access 
newsgroups via eternal-september.com.

Someone suggested i download 'outlook 2003' for my emails in preference to 
windows live mail, and that i could also get my newsgroups from eternal 
september. Would you think that is a good idea?

Basically being a simple soul i'm looking for the most trouble free option 
to get my newsgroups via eternal september.  I emailed them asking for 
advice, saying i no longer had OE and wanted to find the best way to get 
newsgroups from them , but got no reply.

I have now done a *system restore* to a few days ago and the send 'link by 
email' is now restored.  Dont know which program upset this function, it may 
have been 'voip stunt' shall go to more recent restore points to see if i 
can find out what caused it.

Cannot understand why a perfectly good email program like outlook express 
has to be phased out. Also i could use my free eternal-september for 
newsgroups with outlook express.      Thanks to all.
