Can anyone tell me how to get it to insert the symbols before the

The easy way? Use Thunderbird or MS Outlook.

I didn't think Outlook had a newsreader?

Outlook does not, Outlook Express does.


If you create a desktop shortcut to the main Outlook Express exe
(msimn.exe)* and edit the target field in the property sheet with
[space]/newsonly at the end

it becomes a dedicated newsreader (still crap though).

*Microsoft Internet Mail & News, apparently
