When you click Reply Group, what is in the To field? Are you

Thank you Bruce
I have the names of the News Server and Newsgroup. I can view all
the
messages sent by the group members but when I want to reply to the
group
by
clicking on 'Reply Group' button, I got the error message "The
message
could
not be sent. No sender was specified. Please check your news
account
configuration."
I think this clarifies my problem I faced.
Thank you
:
Which tells me nothing.
You need:
1: The name of the newsgroup, (Like Professor Joe's Group).
2: The name of a news server that carries that specific
newsgroup.
(MSNews
will not).
If your professor created the group, he/she should be able to
give
you
this information.

I mean 'primary newsgroup' the Newsgroup created by a Professor
for
discussion on a course for students.
:
What is your primary newsgroup? MSNews is a news server with
2000+
newsgroups. Don't confuse a newsgroup with a news server, in
case
you
are.
Since you posted using the Web interface, copy and paste this
link
into
your browser's address bar. I should bring you right back here
via
Windows
Mail.

Thank you,
as per the instruction, I set up the Windows mail for
subscribing
to
the
Microsoft Newsgroups and I could see one of the Newsgroup in
Windows
mail.
But still I could not send a message to my primary
Newsgroup.
Thank you
:
You need to set up a newsreader before you can access
newsgroups.
Setting up Windows Mail (Vista) to access Microsoft
newsgroups:
