Thanks for the help
I tried your workaround first, as I still couldn't locate the "News" command in order to add it to the "Go" menu. That gave me access to the newsgroups
Then I tried to add the "News" command again, but I still couldn't find it. I must be losing my mind or something. I was in the middle of replying to you about not being able to find the "News" command when I decided to look once more. Surprise, surprise, it showed up in the "Add or Remove Buttons" menu. I don't know what happened or if I'm insane, but I added the command to the "Go" menu and closed/opened Outlook a few times. The command remained intact and the problem seems to have been fixed
Thanks a bunch..

I'm having the same problem. Can't seem to find any fix o
www.microsoft.com but did after a couple minutes with google.com
"Found the solution.... On Winxp, go into control panel, network an
internet connections, then go into internet options, then click on th
programs tab, and put outlook express as your default news reader. Go bac
into outlook and add the news icon like before, when you're done, load u
the news reader, and it will ask to make outlook express your defaul
reader, click no, and uncheck that box that asks if you wanna check for
default news reader next time. That should do it... it worked for me..
lemme know if it helps
Before finding that I did workaroud the problem. Locate the msimn.exe o
your system and creating a shortcut to it. It doesn't bring the mail butto
back in Outlook 2003 but at least you can start and use your mail reader
My shortcut target is "C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /new
