I am only asking here in the hopes that someone has a solution. Everything
worked fine until the wee hours of the morning. Then Windows Mail started
acting up. Was telling me that it couldn't open because another instance of
it was already loaded (it wasn't) or that there was low memory. A couple of
reboots solved that. The problem was then that it kept wanting to compact
the messages but it wouldn't work. And it kept restarting, only to repeat.
I might have a lead on that but in the meantime, I got it to where it never
asks to compact.

The big problem I have now is that alt.support.diabetes won't load. It
tells me that there are 28 messages and yet when I click on it, the top of
the screen is blank and below it tells me that it can't load the folder.
Cause may be low disk space or low memory. Neither is the case. I know
that the newsgroup is still up and running.

I also know that others have had the same problem with just one newsgroup
not loading (not this same group though) while running Thunderbird. I have
Windows Mail and am running Vista 32 bit. One suggestion was to change to
Windows Live Mail but I fear new problems with that. Am also using Eternal
September.

Any suggestions about why I can no longer get this group? Obvious fixes
like unsubscribing, resubscribing, resetting the list and rebooting do not
help.

Thanks for any light you might be able to shed on this! Have posted to
other, more suitable newsgroups but no clues as to the group not loading.
