Default Outlook 2007 still does not support newsgroup?

Hi,

I did some research on the net and is it true that Outlook 2007 still does

With all the technologies available, why MS insists us to use two programs
for daily task?

Is it so hard for it to understand that many of us wish to use only one
program?


I use the new Outlook 2007 in an exchange environment for nearly
everything. For newsgroups, I use Thunderbird (free at www.mozilla.com).
You should give it a shot, I think you'll be quite happy with it.

The thing that got me to "try out" Thunderbird is Outlook Express
doesn't like marking entire threads as watched based on a condition of a
reply in the thread (I like marking threads as watched that I've replied
in, like this one). One I started using it more, I found that I just
like the interface overall for newsgroups.
