I thought there used to be newsgroups dedicated to using VBA with
Outlook. Where have they gone? What is now the recommended newsgroup
for VBA/Outlook questions?

Stop using Microsoft's NNTP server. Microsoft is leaving Usenet
because they had no control over it. Connect your newsreader (Outlook
Express) to a non-Microsoft NNTP and, voila, thar be dem newsgroups.

Microsoft operates just one NNTP server in the worldwide mesh network
of NNTP server (aka Usenet). Just go to a different NNTP server to get
at the microsoft.public.* newsgroups. There are free and paid NNTP
servers, like Giganews, Albasani, Eternal-September, and individual.net
(and who are not dropping the microsoft.public.* newsgroups).
