Sorry this is OT, but I tried an OE6.0 ng and no solution was offered
there.
So I need to ask here - my only ng.

I almost lost my post re: "...TTC..." by waiting 2 (3?) days to see if
there
was a reply. My original post was long gone, but the reply was still
present. So my question is how do I extend the time limit on reading
posts.

Tools / Options / Maintenance & increase the time for 'delete news
messages'.

Also View / Current View / Show all messages to see messages you downloaded
a while ago.

Otherwise search at google groups.
