Outlook 2003 Q's

[Steevo]

Have recently upgraded to Outlook 2003 after using Outlook Express and have
a few questions:

Is there any way to integrate Windows messenger into the contacts pane in
Outlook 2003 as you can with Outlook Express?

Also, is Outlook capable of reading newsgroups? If so how do I go about it
because I can't find anything on News accounts.


Many thanks in advance!

Not to get in the middle but I think the problem is you have a new user
migrating from Express to Outlook and they are asking if something is
possible (and *I* intuit that to mean how do i do it).

In fairness you did answer the question asked but it might have been helpful
if you told him how to do it instead of just saying "yes."

Oh well, thanks for explaining. If you see my other posts, I usually
try to explain as much detailed as I can. But please bare in mind that
this is a voluntary service.

By default, Outlook 2003 automatically enables Messenger integration.
The option can be turning off by going to Tools -> Options -> Other ->
Person Names. Since it is on by default, I didn't think that I have to
explain more about it.

Anyway...
