Default Print list of subscribed newsgroups - how?

Thanks for that excellent suggestion of using screenshots! Worked
perfectly - cropped several captures and pasted into one document that now
shows all subscribed newsgroups listed neatly.

Regards and thanks.

I shall be glad to know if there is any possible way to print or somehow
save the list of subscribed newsgroups in Outlook Express 6. OE6 on one
PC
has 7 news-servers configured - each with an average of around 25
newsgroups
subscribed.

System backups as well as OE message folder and accounts backup is done
religiously and regularly, but we were wondering if the list could be
saved - then re-subcscribing would be easier when one machine is due to
be
replaced not too long from now!

Transferring over the accounts themselves will be no problem because all
accounts have been backed up - but these do not retain any listing of
subscribed newsgroups!

Regards and thanks in anticipation.

Screen shots is about as much as you can hope for.

There's a way to use telnet to get the groups list and you can edit that
list created.

example:

telnet msnews.microsoft.com 119 -f c:\groups.txt
list
......the list will show
quit



Now open C:\groups.txt and edit it.
