Need some help, pliz
 

Hi -

I'm new to newsgroups and can't figure out how to find other groups. I was
led to this one by a hotlink, I guess.

I keep seeing references to other newsgroups such as:
rec.aquaria.freshwater.misc - but I can't figure out how to make my Outlook
Express find them. The only groups it can find are those I already found
because somewhere I found a hotlink.

I read a couple FAQs and whatever I could find (and stand to read) on
Google, but I'm still clueless ...

I have several aquariums and used to raise cichlids commercially on a
Florida fish farm (1985-1990) where I had 35 ponds and more than 500 tanks.

I'm just now falling in love with fish again, though I haven't been without
at least one or two tanks since I was a little kid, and I'm old now ...

thanx - CJ

apologies ...

As you can tell, I need even more help than I knew ... Sent this to the
wrong group,but will WELCOME answers here ...
I have joined this group deliberately; I have two small sailboats and am
looking forward to a project building a proa or other small craft.
BUT I still need some help figuring out newsgroups - and sorry for sending
the "aquarium-gang" message to this group. Wow! Practically my first mistake
ever ...

Try Tools Newsgroups or CTRL+W; this should give you a list of
all the newsgroups available on your news server. Probably in the
tens of thousands. Typing into the textbox will give you a smaller
list that matches what you typed. Use lower case, e.g. "rec.boats"
