I have no luck. bOB(IN) I'd guess he just plugged in the server names; same as with MS Outlook Express. Well, except that the menu path to the server properties is not the same. But the functionality is there. -- Norman ~Oh Lord, why have you come ~To Konnyu, with the Lion and the Drum

The following is based on OL 2003 but it may work for OL 2002/XP. ======= HOW TO properly set up Outlook for Mail and Outlook Express for News A. Set the defaults to use Outlook Express to access Newsgroups: 1. Control Panel | Internet Options | Programs | Newsgroups | Select Outlook Express and OK your way out; 2. Do not let Outlook or Outlook Express let themselves set to the default newsreader: a. Start Outlook Express to access news. When OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch it, click the "Don't ask me again" box and then click the "No" button; b. Close Outlook Express and start Outlook. When it asks whether you want to set Outlook as your default mail and news handler choose "No". Leave Outlook open and continue to the next section. 3. Set the Outlook Toolbar: a. Choose View | Toolbars | Customize*; b. Select the Commands tab; c. From the Categories list select "Go"; d. From the Commands list select "News" and drag & drop it to any place you want on the Toolbar. The default location is in the "Go" menu. e. Press Close to return to Outlook. *Not seeing the News option in Customize? Choose View | Toolbars | Customize | Toolbars (tab) | Select Menu Bar and press Reset | Start again from #3 above. B. Start Outlook Express as Newsreader from a shortcut 1. Copy the following line to your clipboard (CTRL+C): "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /newsonly 2. Right click on an empty area of your Desktop and choose New > Shortcut; 3. Paste the contents of your clipboard (CTRL+V) into the "Type the location of the item" box; 4. Press Next; 5. Type a name for the shortcut (e.g., Newsreader); 6. Press Finish and your shortcut will be created. You can drag & drop this shortcut to anywhere you want (e.g., Quick Launch toolbar, Shortcuts section of the Navigation Pane in Outlook 2003).
