Gurus,
Is there a way to configure a newsreader to send you an email notification
when someone responds to your post in a newsgroup?

No. You can provide a real email address in Reply-to and ask to
be replied to via email but such requests are usually rejected.
If you use a REAL newsreader like XNews, any replies to your
posts are highlighted and "jumped to" when you update the group
headers. You can't ask for much more than that.

Which newsreader? How can the newsreader "know" if it doesn't sync with the
newsserver?

No.
But if you use Outlook Express, while in its newsreader mode, simply
press Ctrl+H. Then you'll see if there are any new responses in threads
you have been participating in. |

The replier does it by reply by mail instead of reply in the group. A |
pointless task that shouldn't be used in such a group as this IMHO.

Why ask here? This has nothing to do with XP.
Ask elsewhere |
