I'm not receiving any notifications for replies to my posts, nor for threads
that I've marked. My profile email address is current. Currently, I'm logging
on, visiting my profile and examining the list of notifications at the bottom
of the screen.

Not an issue with Outlook, the topic of THIS newsgroup. You are asking
about a problem with the webnews-for-dummies interface that gateways to
Usenet so Microsoft can pretend it has a forum. Use a real newsreader to
access Usenet. The webnews-for-dummies client has lots of problems and way
too often goes screwy in its behavior.

Then use a newsreader and not the web interface

Yes, I realise that this newsgroup is about Outlook, but there's no other
suitable category. I checked the Profile Help but it didn't yield any and
there's no opportunity to post questions. I assumed that as there was a
Profile setting for notifications, and I had received them in the past, there
might be a problem you could help me with.
I tried entering "Newsgroups" into the Outlook Help and began to follow the
instructions for adding News to the Go menu, but it seems that my
version/installation of Outlook doesn't have that feature.
Can you suggest a newsreader that will work under Win2kpro & IE6? I'll
pre-empt your question about using the latest OS by saying that I have to use
what I'm given.

Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Xnews, Forte Agent and others will all work as
newsreaders. Google "+free +(news OR nntp) +reader +download"
