Hang in there...... Full details at: http://www.forteinc.com/news/bulleti...nt21update.php You know, Gene, I keep trying Agent, and I find it a colossal pain the ass to learn and use, and it STILL doesn't allow easy setup of multiple news and mail accounts. |

You could create multiple shortcuts with a command line to point to different data files, but you might have to register each data file. I haven't tried it (insufficient motivation), but I'm pretty sure I could get it to work. |
