Hi,

I tried to add another identity on my home computer, but after I did that, I
could no longer download any new headers from the main identity or the new
one I had just setup. So I deleted the new identity and just tried to
change the mailing information to access one of my fun accounts. Now I
can't get new headers at all my my service provider, but I can at these
microsoft newsgroup.

Now I can't add an identity at all since the newsgroup view on Outlook XP no
longer has an "Identity" option to be able to select "Manage Identities". I
am XP for the OS.

Am I doing something wrong?

Joan, are you using Outlook or Outlook Express? Outlook doesn't support the
concept of 'identities' while OE does.

If you're using OE you might want to check out one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.inetexplorer.ie4.outlookexpress for OE 4.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...express&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...express&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...express&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups
microsoft.public.internet.mail.mac for the Macintosh version of OE
http://support.microsoft.com/newsgr...ess.mac&SLCID=US&sd=GN&id=fh;en-us;newsgroups

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup
references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:
