Newsgroups in outlook 2003?

[Ngenus1]

I have outlook2003 and I can't seem to get newsgroups to be added to the
account lists. I still have to read newsgroups in Express. Anyone have any
ideas?

Expected behavior. Outlook is not a news reader.

No version of Outlook supports NNTP (network news transfer protocol).
They call and open Outlook Express to do newsgroups. So just open OE
directly to do newsgroups.

if you really want one client, see

new appreciation for OE.
