I think zencycle is probably right that you can't use Outlook for 
newsgroups.  I do use it for pretty much all my e-mail, though I 
still use PINE on some of my shell accounts as convenient.

For news, I am old school, using mainly slrn on my primary shell 
account with panix.   From time to time I'll look in with PhoNews 
on my Samsung Android phone, but that's rare.
