Re: Usenet and News Groups

Have you tried unsubscribing and resubscribing to the groups? If that doesn't work you may need to add the news settings into your news client.

Re: Usenet and News Groups

In Outlook Express go to Tools, then Accounts. Click Add, then news. Enter the name and email address you want to display on any posts you make (always a good idea to obscure the email address) and the news server as news.plus.net
It will ask you to re-download the groups, then just subscribe again to the groups you want.
