Sorry if this is the wrong place for help. If there is
another newsgroup where I should be posting this please
let me know.

I am using Office XP and am trying to post messages on a
newsgroup. I use Outlook as my default e-mail account. I
keep getting nastygrams from Outlook Newsreader stating
that 'No Sender Was Specified please check your news
account configuration'. How do I do this?

Thanks for any help.

Have you tried deleting and recreating your news account? It's worth a
try...

However, if that doesn't work and you don't get any satisfactory answers
in this newsgroup, you may want to repost in an Outlook Express
newsgroup since the Outlook Newsreader is just a news only version of
OE. The folks who post there have probably seen the error you're
describing and can tell you how to fix it. To access the OE newsgroups
via the web interface, click the link below, then click the plus sign
next to your version of Internet Explorer in the pane on the left hand
side and you'll then see a link to the OE newsgroup for that version
number. Good luck! (Note: The link may wrap to two lines -- if so,
make sure you copy and paste the whole thing to your browser.)
