 Fred,
 Outlook was never highly regarded by the Usenet community.  Too many
 problems and short comings.
 
 One of the best and longest running Usenet readers remains Xnews, a
 free download.  And Forte Agent is still very reliable, again, for a
 long time.  Nice feature about both is they're not captive to any
 newsgroup service.
 
 Lots of choices for posting too.
 
 Good luck.
 
 JJ-
