Reading internal newsgroup in Outlook 2002

[Guest]

Hello. We are a small company using Outlook 2002. We would like to have an
internal newsgroup from outlook. Is there anyway to do this without a third
party program? If it's possible, what are the hardware requirements?

Any pointers, suggestions are much appreciated.

Thank you,

Angel

Outlook can't read newsgroups at all. It uses Outlook Express to do that.

To read newsgroups with any news client, OE included, you need an NNTP
server. You can find free ones with Google, I'm sure. Once you have an
NNTP server running, you can create groups on that server that all news
clients can access.
