How about asking how configure the newsreader in the newsreader's support
group? Any problems you are having with PAN are likely a
misconfiguration on your part, so you really need to ask in a PAN

BTW, for Outlook Express there is a tutorial at
<http://www.povray.org/resources/newsgroups/oetut.php> and it really is
trivial.
