Default Restoring news account ? (Or copieing newsgroup list ?)

Hello,

My ISP's Newsserver was not working one day and the ISP send me an e-mail
informing me that they are switching to a new newserver at a new dns
address.

I tried updating my news account to the new news address.

However the new newsserver was not working properly. (Could not post
messages).

Now I tried switching back to the old newsserver address and now the news
account doesn't seem to work properly anymore...

No new messages are downloaded ?!?

Is there anyway to "restore" a news account in outlook express ?

What I did for now is:

Create a new news account.

This sucks however because then I have to re-add all newsgroups ?!

Alternatively:

Would be nice if the old newsgroup list could be copied to a new news
account.

Bye,
Skybuck.
