I'm not sure OL2003 can read news.  I think perhaps some later OL can (added 
tot he View menu, perhaps?).  So I use OL Express to read news.  The OL with 
which I wish to communicate is:

Application name Outlook
Version 11.0
Build 8217
Product ID 70141-700-0350904-56905
Language English (United States)
Application Path C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\
System Language English (United Kingdom)
Mail Support Not Available
Current folder Inbox
Current item Not Available

Not sure why its says "Mail Support Not Available" as all I use it for is 
email (oh, and the calendar).

Hey and ho
