Create newsgroup accounts with Outlook Express I subscribe to a long and unwieldy list of newsgroups in Outlook Express. Is there any practical way to separate them by subject? Outlook Express allows you to create as many newsgroup accounts as you like, and it doesn't care a bit if all of them are set to point to a single ISP account. To create a newsgroup account, select Tools, Accounts, and click the News tab. Double-click your existing account (we're assuming you have one) and click the Server tab. With the 'Server name' field selected, press Ctrl, C and then Esc. In the Internet Accounts dialog box, select Add, News and follow the instructions in the resulting wizard. When asked for a News Server, press Ctrl, V. After you're done with the wizard, double-click the new account and rename it appropriately (Movies, Music or whatever), then click ok and Close. Unfortunately, you won't be able to copy or move newsgroups from one account to another. Instead, you'll have to subscribe to each one in the new account and then unsubscribe in the old one.
