    Outlook can't show newsgroups. It never has been able to.
    Microsoft say to use Window Mail (which was called Outlook Express which was called Microsoft Internet Mail and News).

    To add the Microsoft Connect news server to Windows Mail:
    Start Windows Mail.
    On the Tools menu, click Accounts.
    Click Add and then click Newsgroup Account.
    In the Internet Connection Wizard, follow the instructions until you reach the Internet News Server Name page.
    Enter "connectnews.microsoft.com" for the News (NNTP) server, select "My news server requires me to log on," and then click Next.
    Enter your newsgroup ID and password, and then click Next.
    Click Finish, and then click Close.
