   XPsp3 - (how to) retrieve OE6 newsgroup

   Hello all,   
      
   I'm still using OE6 to read/write newsgroup messages, and have written a   
   small program which retrieves the message count for each subscribed   
   newsgroup, so I can easily see if new messages are available for them.   
      
   The thing is, at some point I need to provide a username and password.  The   
   OE6 account already has them, but can't seem to be able to retrieve them for   
   my "new messages" checking program.   
      
   Any idea where-and-how I can retrieve them ?   
      
   I've already taken a peek at the 'CredRead' and family functions   
   (advapi32.ddl), but those return nothing.  Presumably OE6 uses another   
   method.   
      
   Regards,   
   Rudy Wieser
