I can't see microsoft.public.publisher.webdesign

[Julia]

I want to post a question about my website, and have noticed requests that
those questions go to microsoft.public.publisher.webdesign.

I have verizon FIOS and use news.verizon.net. That group is not in the
list. I just talked to techinal support and they said there is no way to
request a newsgroup be put in the verizon newsgroup server. Can it be
possible that no one using that group is using verizon newgroups?!

I'm using Outlook Express 6. I click on news.verizon.net, then Reset List.
If I type microsoft.public.pub I can see *this* group, but not
publisher.webdesign.

I would rather figure out how to see publisher.webdesign with OE than use
google groups.

==================================
You could try accessing the web based version:

"Publisher Web Design"
http://tinyurl.com/hnslm

I notice you are using Outlook Express....
have you tried setting up an account with
the following MS Server:

msnews.microsoft.com

Then you should have access to all the MS
Public newsgroups from within Outlook Express

Here's how if you need instructions:

(the instructions for OE5 also apply to OE6)

Thank you! I thought I was restricted to newsgroups "provided" by verizon.
I have been using newsgroups for over 10 years, but obviously I don't know
more than how to read and post to them.

Now I'll post my question over there.
