Creating Newsgroups

Use the Groups property sheet in Microsoft NNTP Service to create a newsgroup. When you create a new newsgroup, Microsoft NNTP Service creates the directory for the newsgroup automatically. If you want a moderator to review new articles before they are posted, you can create a moderated newsgroup.

To create a newsgroup:
  1. In either Internet Service Manager or Internet Service Manager (HTML), select the Groups property sheet.
  2. Choose Create new newsgroup.
  3. In the Newsgroup box, type the name of the newsgroup you want to create.
  4. In the Description box, type a brief description of the newsgroup function.
  5. Choose OK.
