Outlook and News Groups

Does Outlook 2007 have the ability to access news group news servers,
the
way Outlook Express does, and if so, how do I set it up ?
No, never has and hopefully never will. You set up your news groups
in
OE or Windows Mail.
And if you're going to use the Microsoft newsgroups regularly, you
might
want to consider connecting directly to msnews.microsoft.com rather
than
Prodidgy's news server, which seems to add a very annoying little
graphic to
the bottom of your messages.
I don't use Prodigy's news server. My news server is called "SBC News
Server". (Maybe SBC uses Prodigy's news server!) The "annoying little
graphic" (which I don't see when download the newsgroup messages) could
be because I have Hot Bar installed to work with my Outlook Express, and
since I use Outlook Express to access the news groups, Hot Bar
automatically attaches a "Play Games for Free - Click Here" message to my
postings.
Then yes, it would be HotBar, since that is what is there, a 'play games for
free- click here' image. Very annoying.
