Hi,

this may seem like a really silly question; but it is something that I would
like to do.
I would like to know if it is possible to set up OUTLOOK as a newsgroup
platform. Or can I only use the Outlook Express? IF it is possible to set it
up in the OUTLOOK, could someone please tell me how it is done? I am under
the impression that it CANNOT be done because I have utilized all possible
options.

All help would be greatly appreciated

It's not possible natively - Outlook doesn't read news. See if
http://www.newsgator.com/ looks like it might work for you.
 
Hi!

MAPILab NNTP for Outlook have the same user interface as Outlook
Express.

http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/nntp/

MAPILab NNTP allows you to read and post messages to newsgroups from
Microsoft Outlook 2000, 2002/XP and 2003. This product is a
full-function MAPI transport. This means that a news server account
works in the same way as an account for Microsoft Exchange Server or a
POP3/SMTP account, support remote mail headers and it is managed through
common Send/Receive menu.

MAPILab NNTP for Outlook supports all messages formats (plain text, RTF,
HTML) and encodings which are supported by Microsoft Outlook. It is
fully compatible with (but doesn't require!) Microsoft Exchange Server
and can be used to share newsgroups for coworkers through public
folders.
 
I used MAPILab NNTP for a while and then switched to
NewsHound. I much better solution for newsgroups in
OutLook. IMHO. -Randy-
