Could someone please tell me how to get to the privatenews.microsoft.com
newsgroup? My computer crashed and I lost all my newsgroup settings,
including Greg's download. Thank you!

When you go onto Outlook Express click Tools and then Accounts. On the side
click Add then News. Enter your name, click next, enter your e-mail, click
next, enter "msnews.microsoft.com" (without the quotes) then click next and
then finish.

That won't work for the *PRIVATE* stationery groups on the Microsoft server.
Importing the attached IAF file in OE under Tools/Accounts will create an
account. You can then modify the user name and reply to address to suit
your needs.
