I find the Outlook window too crowded; the Outlook Express window is simpler.

How can I configure Outlook to look like Outlook Express? I've used the
Navigator Pane options to hide what I don't want to see.

ALso, how do I get back newsgroups?

Thanks
 
There really isn't a good way to do this. Outlook and Outlook Express are
completely different programs and they are designed for the needs of
different audiences; you'd have just as much trouble trying to make OE look
like Outlook. As to the News command, go 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.
