To download individual messages

If you have set up Outlook Express to download only message headers for offline viewing, you can mark those headers that look interesting while you are offline. Then, when you click Download All on the Tools menu, Outlook Express dials your Internet connection and downloads the full messages for offline reading.

  1. In the newsgroup you downloaded, click a message header that looks interesting.

  2. On the Tools menu, point to Mark for Retrieval, and then click Mark Message. Repeat these steps for each header whose message you want to read offline.

  3. On the Tools menu, click Download All.
