How do I find this newsgroup?

You can download stationery templates from any source and save them in
that
file for OE to use.

If you're thinking of
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/oe/...ry/default.ASP,
that's
no longer an available page since all further OE development was
stopped
in
June 2006.

If you're interested in stationery, read on (courtesy of longtime MVP
Jim
Pickering):

The active stationery groups were migrated to a Microsoft-hosted
private
newsserver several years ago. Try posting there.

The private server can be accessed using the following settings in a
new
News account:

Server: privatenews.microsoft.com
Account Name: privatenews\stationery
Password: stationery

The only reason it's on a private server is that Microsoft does not
allow
posting of messages larger than 100 KB to pubic newsgroups. Since many
stationeries are often much larger, since they include multiple images
and
sound files, the use of a private newsgroups was set up to allow them
to
continue with their creations.

We used to be able to download eml stationary directly into OE. Then
it
quit working. I recently heard that we are again able to download
into
"program files/common files/microsoft shared/stationery. Can you tell
me
how to do this action now?
