Snake, this sort of thing just won't happen if you stop using Outlook
and go over to a real newsreader and a real email program. Try Free
Agent (it's free) for newsreading and try Pegasus or Eudora for email.


Well, whadayaknow...those programs will override a deliberate
"accidental" post to a newsgroup?

R,
You simply configure MS Lookout to go to your mail account and the
newreader to go to the news account and keep them separate that way.
It's not foolproof but if you have to switch apps to do functions it'll
cut down on the chances of a mistake.

I use Thoth for newsreading and Mozzilla for mail.
