Create a Shortcut for Newsgroups

Is there a way to add a shortcut to open and view newsgroups? The current shortcut menu
provides access to Calenders, Tasks, etc. I'd like to add an ICON for opening the Newsreader

Just add a shortcut to Outlook Express (since that's what Outlook uses
for its newsreader) and put the /newsonly switch on the end of the
target file path. For example, your shortcut's target path might look
like this:

"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /newsonly
