Creating and Managing Newsgroups

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 with SP1

A newsgroup is the organizational structure for a group of related news articles. For example, if you are creating departmental newsgroups, then you can create the accounting, human resources, and executive newsgroups. If you expect a lot of newsgroup activity, then you can break down the newsgroups into narrower categories. However, because articles within each newsgroup are organized by subject, you do not need to create a separate newsgroup for each subject.
