Unable to get newsgroups on Outlook
When I try to retrieve newsgroups I keep getting a ! window saying
Outlook Express unable to retrieve a list of newsgroups available on the server news.intergate.com - Details:480 authentication required - Configuration: news.intergate.com - Server: news.intergate.com This is a brand new computer with XP Home and Outlook 6. On a former computer when MSN was my ISP I had virtually the same exact problem. MSN tech support was completely clueless when I tried to solve the problem through them. Their final solution was "duh, try Google". Why is it seemingly imposable for me to view and post to Usenet except via Google? Oh yeah, my webtv had a fantastic newsreader too. So why does Outlook keep shortchanging me? Thank you very much in advance for your help. |
