    OSS semi-clone of Forte Agent. Mainly for Linux but there is a Windows
    binary (which I've not tried).

    Outlook doesn't do News.

    Did you mean Outlook Express?

    He is actually one of the few presenters who is also a top-notch journalist.
    When he has to ad-lib, at least he has some understanding of the topics
    being presented.

    Your statement applies to 99% of the others, though!

    All you have to do is add a button saying News groups and click it.

    It uses the same kernel and engine as Outlook Express.

    So you can read and manage news from both programmes.

    No. If you are using Outlook and click that, it opens Outlook Express.
    You may as well claim that Windows Write is still there because it
    opens Wordpad.
