I can not seem to find a place to use theses newsgroups in
Outlook Express. Is it possible with these? Could someone

Outlook Express questions should be posted to the Outlook Express =
newsgroup:
news:microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_out lookexpress.=20

I can not seem to find anything labeled newgroups on these
forums. Wouldn't it be just as simple as someone telling
me quickly in here. I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

You will need to get some specific information from your ISP.

Please respond to newsgroup only for everyone's benefit.

I'm not sure what you're asking exactly, but if it is what I think, then go
to Outlook Express>Tools>Accounts>News Tab>
Then configure the account to read from your ISP news server. For example
news.chi.sbcglobal.net. Then you can access any of the newsgroups on your
server. Be aware, some ISPs don't allow posting on some of their servers,
they are read-only servers. You can also use a service like google news.
They have most important newgroups and you can post if you set up an
account.
Hope that helps.
