From: Don Burn on 7 May 2010 19:35 I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to read and write Microsoft forums in Outlook, besides Newshound. I tried Newshound and it continually corrupted my PST files, so I gave up on it. But with Microsoft eliminating newsgroups for forums I want a way to keep communicating.

Yes it does, but except for LiveMail which I can't stand, none of those work on Win7. The question was how to be on forums with Outlook, and so far the answer appears to be that one cannot in a reliable manner.
