Description

[Michail Romanov]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)
BuildID:    OEM

When I click the link to the news group, the corresponding News Group is not 
selected in the appeared Mail/News window (like in Netscape 4.x).

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click the link on the news group from either Navigator or Mail/News window. 
2. Notice that in the appeared Mail/News window NONE news group is selected 
(including one poited by link).
3. Try the same in Netscape 4.x - the corresponding news group is selected in 
the newly appeared window and the list of news it contains are displayed.

Actual Results:  News group pointed by link is not selected.

Expected Results:  News group pointed by link must be selected and the list of 
news it contains should be displayed.
