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.
You may need to reset the Menu Bar and/or restart Outlook and/or reboot your
machine in order to complete the process. Not everyone is reporting success
with this method, but try it and see what happens. If all else fails, you
can always create a desktop shortcut to Outlook Express and include the
/outnews switch -- that gives you the same result as accessing the
newsreader via the News command in Outlook.

After searching google.groups.com and finding no answer, Murray Sobol asked:
| I recently upgraded Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003 without any
| problems. I then noticed that Outlook Express was missing, so I
| followed the instructions in Help to add News to the Go menu.
| Everything was working fine. Went home Friday evening, came back to
| office on Monday, rebooted my computer and started Outlook 2003.
| Everything seems OK except that Outlook Express is missing on the GO
| menu. Tried too re-add the item, but it does not appear as an option
| any more. I am subscribed to many newsgroups and need desparatley to
| reestablish this connection.
| TIA
