Mike, I may have spoken too soon about solving the problem~~when I did
uncheck the *group messages by conversation,* all the messages appeared but
in a helter skelter way. So now I am back to getting the lost messages but
not being able to group them by conversation!!
By the way I cannot sort the messages by name in the View area~I have sort
by Sent and Sort by descending. Now what do I do~~please??

Mike, you are a lifesaver!! As soon as I unchecked the box for *group
messages by conversation,* all the messages that were missing appeared! I
KNEW you would solve it!!
Thanks so very much!

Start with your view options.

First go into Tools, options, Read, and make sure the box for
Automatically
expand all grouped messages is checked. If it's not, then you will only
see
the first message in each thread, the ones below it won't be there until
you
click on the plus sign to get them.

Change the view to Show all Messages. Go into the view menu, and
uncheck
the box for group messages for this test. Then sort them by the from
name.
If you see the messages you are missing, then it's a view thing.

If you can search and find them then they are at your news server, so
check
your view, let us know and we'll go on from there if we have to.

I am not getting messages from people that I have not blocked. For
instance,
Sunny just told me that she posted about her Zuiderdam cruise and not
of
her
posts appear on my screen. When I go to *find* on my Outlook Express,
I
find
all her messages when I enter her name~~yet they do not appear on my
screen
when I bring rtc up! This is not just in Sunny's posts, but I was told
by
a
friend that she posted to rtc and when I tried to find it, it was not
there!! Help any of you computer whizzes out there????? Kevin,
Charles,
Mike
Cordelli~~anyone???
