Newsreader

[Laura]

I just set up Newsreader and subscribed to 8 newsgroups.
I also added 'News' to the 'Go' list. I closed and later
went back, and found that 'News' was no longer in
the 'Go' list and also was not under the commands list
when I went back to customize. Please Help. Need this
for online classes. Thanks

I assume you're using Outlook 2003?

Try the following -- it seems to work for many:

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No
button.

You may need to reset the Menu Bar and/or restart Outlook and/or reboot your
machine in order to complete the process. Not everyone is reporting success
with this method, but try it and see what happens. If all else fails, you
can always create a desktop shortcut to Outlook Express and include the
/newsonly switch -- that gives you the same result as accessing the
newsreader via the News command in Outlook.

It worked for my problem as well, I guess I missed the similar post.
Thanks,
