I followed the instructions below for configuring Outlook 2003 to read
newsgroups:

Add or Remove Buttons -> Customize
Select Go in Category List
Select News in Commands List and drag into the Go menu

It initially appeared to work. However, after I closed and re-opened
Outlook, News was no longer in the Go menu. I tried configuring it again
using the above procedure but News is no longer in the Commands List. How do
I configure Outlook 2003 to read newsgroups? Thanks.

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No
button.
