No version of Outlook is a news reader, nor will be.

Microsoft's NewsReader is Outlook Express
Like you I use Outlook for Email yet for news groups it's OE. I have a short cut of "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /outnews This option starts Outlook Express in the News Reader Only mode. When you use this option, you cannot send or receive e-mail, and the Mail tab in the Internet Accounts dialog box is missing. Try it out but I also use a 2nd newsreader with a bit more power since MS stopped developing their newsreader a long time ago. I like "Forte Agent". "deebs" wrote: Thanks for the insight Russ.

Thanks for the pointers Franky.
My usual email/NG program is T'bird. Outlook seems swell as a central repository for appointments PC/PPC/phone Franky M. wrote: Microsoft's NewsReader is Outlook Express Like you I use Outlook for Email yet for news groups it's OE.
