Oh, and they still haven't added multiple email servers which was
supposed to be accomplished in 2.0 but never was.

That is supposed to be undertaken next. Forte is dead slow in writing
code, but their product is pretty bug free when released. Also, they
don't go digging in your pocked for extra money when they release most
updates.

Trust me, they've take a LOT of heat over this email
servers/personas/filtering issue.


Gene, have you started using 3.0? I'm still on 1.91/32...

Haven't had any problems with it, and I'm wondering if I'd gain a lot going to
3.0.


For my money (the $20 it took to upgrade) it's sort of kinda worth
it.

Based solely on one day's worth of use, I've noticed the following.

Binary retrieval is much quicker. Login is a tad slower. Multiple
newservers are now working and seem to work well. Multiple email
accounts are still not part of Agent - don't know if that's important
to you or not.

The interface has completely changed and once you get used to it, is
more efficient.

Other than that, I haven't played with it enough to decide which was
better.


Thanks, Tom.

When you loaded the new version, did you have to delete the old? I'm wondering
if it's possible to have both versions, just in case I don't like the new one
all that much.
