Note: MS Internet News uses MS Exchange to send e-mail. This will use a mapped link to your mail-forwarding server (SMTP), but must be set-up within MS Exchange.

1. From the menu bar, under the 'Message' menu, select 'Options' to bring up the 'Options' dialog box.

2. Select the 'Server' tab and press the 'Add' button, located under the 'News server(s)' window. This will bring up the 'News Server Properties' dialog box.

3. Select the 'General' tab and in the 'News Server Name:' field, enter 'wingate'.

4. Select the 'Advanced' tab. In the 'Server Port Number : News Server:' field, enter the port number that the WinGate mapped link to your NNTP server is configured to accept connections on (suggested as 119). Hit the 'OK' button.

5. The rest of the MS Internet News set up does not relate to WinGate.
