I don't know tbird -- in the IE/OE marriage, a link like that causes IE
to call up OE for the display and OE tries to get the mid from the
default newsserver..

In that IE/OE combination, it is essential that the OE default
newsserver be news.spamcop.net if it is so configured, but if I had made
the link be designed for OE to have /any/ newsserver as default, I
should have put news://news.spamcop.net/db42d1$eap$1@news.spamcop.net
Try that one.
