Outlook Express interprets rhubarb@domain as a mail address and

helpful if you wrote the link as news:rhubarb@domain.
sorry. It worked in Agent so I guess I should have realised it would not
work with anything produced by Microsoft.
Incidentally, how does your newsreader (Forte Agent) know that it's a
news item and not an e-mail address without having "news:" on the front?
No idea - it just asked the question and I clicked on the right option
