I've already downloaded the message, so why cannot SM just go to the Cache to get the info, why does it have to re-download the message?? Do other News readers also show this behavior?? Daniel you're not viewing the message on your computer. You've viewing it on the server. Therefore, when you go offline, the message isn't there on your computer, because you haven't downloaded anything. Is it the same for thunderbird? SeaMonkey is about the same as a Firefox and Thunderbird combo. -- *IMPORTANT*: Sorry folks, but I cannot provide email help Emails to me may become public Notice: This posting is protected under the Free Speech Laws, which applies everywhere in the FREE world, except for some strange reason, not to the mozilla.org newsgroup servers, where your posting may get you banned.
