Now before i start i really dont want to hear that outlook sucks and i should use their newsgroup browser. I like outlook and it works well for what i need.

When i try to combine and decode pics in a news group every few pics it stops and then it says the newsgroup server is not responding. and i have stop the process, and restart it. When trying to download 100 pics at a time, i usually have to stop and start it 5 or 6 times... very annoying.

it even does it sometimes when updating the headers or even previewing a pic or whatever. Now i have used many newsgroup providers and it seems to happen with all of them. So it seems its a software issue... maybe even a config issue.

is there a way to have it force retry the combine and decode without me having to do it manually?
