I am presently using Newshound for Outlook and have experience with
Mapilabs NNTP for Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird and other dedicated news clients. While using OE, WM, WLM and Thunderbird make reading newsgroups pretty simple out of the box there are some advantages to using Outl0ok with an add-in as your news client. With Newshound you have access to most Outlook features so you can use Outlook Categories or flag specific newsgroup posts. You can also drag them to tasks (i.e. a link you want to check out later) just like you do with email. You can design your own customized views for reading messages and you can also archive using Outlooks archiving features and rules to a local pst file or for that matter have your newsgroups delivered to a local pst file. With an Exchange based email account with a sufficient mailbox size you can also store your newsgroups within Exchange thereby making them accessible from multiple computers or through Outlook Web Access on the web. This is a plus for me as I switch between multiple computers and there was no other way to keep my read\unread messages in sync between machines. Newshound will allow you to retrieve just message headers or headers and bodies. It has colorized quoting which is nice. It has taken some time for me to adjust to using Newshound for Outlook for news reading and I am fairly familiar with Outlook so I am able to customize Outlook in order to make it work like I want. If you're relatively comfortable with Outlook, Newshound offers a 30 day free trial so you can give it a try and see if it suits your needs. One of the first things I did after installing it was create a new Newsgroup view that only shows unread posts. The only view it includes is one that shows all posts. Another behaviour that took some getting use to is that it moves message threads with the most recent posting to the top of the thread list. Because I'm using an Exchange based email account and prefer not to have to switch between separate email\PIM, newsgroup and RSS clients, while not perfect, Newshound for Outlook is a good compromise for me.

You can try NewsHound - many find it nice and configurable.
I prefer to keep my news groups and mail in separate programs. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. ALWAYS post your Outlook version.

Thank you.
I'll try it. NewsHound in Outlook. Why separate programs? Don't you waste a lot of time going back and forth?
