Firstly, MS Outlook is an email program and cannot be used for Usenet.
I assume you are talking about Outlook Express.

Secondly, Agent (which I use) places the cursor at the top as well.

Thirdly, the correct place for the cursor is at the top, not the
bottom - this allows judicious snipping of irrelevant stuff and the
interjection of comments. I would expect all good newsreaders (and
some rubbish ones) to place the cursor at the top.

Fourthly, top posters are mostly stupid, ignorant, young or a
combination of all three. Their posts are also so rarely worth reading
that it's not worth worth bothering about any of them.
