Hello everyone!!
I have Windows XP Home & Outlook Express.
Could anyone Please tell me how to Configure
Outlook Exp. to download only 2,000 or a
max of 5,000 headers from a news group ?

At the present is set for 1,000 , but it will not stop
till it downloads all 20,000 or whatever there is
available on the server.

Thanks for Your Help!! x@y.

This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
outlook express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x

A good website for information on OE is:

Thank You Russ !!
I have noticed there are only a few posters with
OE. questions on this group.
We should suggest to Microsoft to merge the two
Outlook programs and give a new name,
like "Lookout" It would be much easer to run for novices
like me.
Thanks again for the links, x@y/micio.

The only things wrong with that is that it would be like asking Microsoft to
merge, say, Access and Font Page and give it a new name. Just because both
Outlook and Outlook Express both can read Email doesn't mean they're similar
programs.

Also it would take a day to wade thru all the messages since Outlook and the
Outlook Express Newsgroups get hundreds of postings per day and I think
would be even more confusing to the end user as then it would make it sound
like both are basically the same program. I say leave it as is.

Thanks "Brian" !!
I was joking. I understand that a merge is
impossible. I think Microsoft is busy
enough fixing them.
