downloading newsgroups

Howdy,
Windows Mail v7.0 [ms win-6.0.5384.4[beta-2.060518-1455]], does not complete the downloading of the news group listings during the initial set up process, I am using "newsgroups.comcast.net", I am not sure if this is a comcast/giganews issue or a Windows Mail issue.
I have configured all other aspects on Windows & logon password correctly.
Any one else having this problem? Solutions?

This is a known bug. If you know the name of the newsgroup you can try a link like this: News://newsgroups.comcast.net/name-of-newsgroup
