This tutorial will show you how to setup a Newsgroup account in Outlook Express 5 for Mac OS 8 or 9.

1. Click on the "Tools" menu and select "Accounts"

   

2. In the "Accounts" window which appears, Click on the "News" tab, and click on the "new" button.

   

3. In the window which appears, Type an organization if you would like to do so, and press the right arrow to continue.
