How do I configure Outlook 2007 to be a newsreader for this newsgroup?

Outlook is not and never will be a news reader.

Thanks for the reply Russ.

I am pretty sure I could point Outlook 2003 towards Outlook Express and pick
up newsgroups that way. Can I do the same with Outlook 2008? If so, how?

Outlook 2007 behaves exactly like Outlook 2003 did in that regard. Configure
it exactly as you configured Outlook 2003.

Hasn't changed. The News command in the Go Menu launches whatever newsreader
you have set as the default for your operating system.

If the news command is not listed in the custom dialog, 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, click
the "Don't ask me again" box and then click the No button.

MAPILab NNTP for Outlook allows you to read and post messages to newsgroups
from Microsoft Outlook 2007. You can test free trial version of this Outlook
add-in if you are interested in it. http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/nntp/

Um, no you're not. Youre using Outlook Express:
X-Newsreader: Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2900.5512
