Yes, if you don't want to use OE to receive your mails you should remove the
accounts.

Hi, I just loaded my Verizon DSL account on a XP sp2 Pro PC w/ MS
Office 2003, sp2.
I'm using Outlook (not OE) to send/receive email and I configured it to
link to OE as a news reader.
and added a "News" button to the Outlook toolbar. However, by mistake
I didn't add the News button to
the Outlook Go menu button I addded it to the Toolbar just to the left
of ther Go Button. At first it worked great
I'd just click on the News button and it brought to screenn the
newsgroups I had subscribed to.now when I click
on the News button it brings up an Explorer window that displays System
files.


How can I remove the News button from the Tool ar and add it to the Go
Button on the Toolbar and how can I get it to display subscribed news
groups instead of some System files? I now access newsgroups by
manually opening OE the Outlook 2003 the News button was almost elegant
when it worked.


It's worse than I thought I just opened Outlook Express and see that it's
still receiving email. I guess I should remove mail servers from OE mail
configuration becaause Outlook is configured to receive my email?
