12.1. How Does Outlook Express Relate to Outlook?

It's a bit confusing that Microsoft named two products Outlook. However, you can think of Outlook Express as being a lightweight version of Outlook. Outlook Express doesn't have any of the advanced features of Outlook, such as tasks, notes, calendar, and journal, but it does have one very important feature that Outlook lacks: Outlook Express enables you to read and post messages to newsgroups. Although Outlook Express can be used as an e-mail client, we're going to assume that because this book's focus is Outlook, you'll be using Outlook for your e-mail needs. In that vein, this chapter focuses solely on Outlook Express's capability to read newsgroups.
