WHY for the love of god, can't I post and have an e-mail sent to me when
someone replies. I have tried with multiple e-mail accounts, multiple
computers on multiple networks. Can anyone else check that box at the bottom
of a post? What gives!

I don't know; maybe it doesn't work with munged addresses (which you NEED
for general reasons). I don't like the web interface to the groups. But have
you considered using a newsreader like Outlook Express or Forte Agent rather
than the web interface to the newsgroups? It's a lot easier to do nearly
everything there, including searching, which is always a good idea to do
before you post, as well as mark messages to be watched, and filter based on
replies to your posts. You don't need an email reply...you can just view
replies to your messages.

The Microsoft public news server is msnews.microsoft.com and you can
subscribe to as many groups as you like.
