Default Newsreaders -- Agent 2.1

Agent 2.1 was anticipated in Q2, but has now been postponed until Q3.
The wait is irritating, but Forte, though (as my Grandmother would
say) slow as molasses running up hill in wintertime, when the software
is release it *is* reliable.... and bug fixes and upgrades (within
version) are free.....

Hang in there......

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.

So, who really cares if you can not understand a very easy to use software.

What experience do you have using it? None? Thought so. I KNOW for a
fact, that you aren't using it to post HERE......

I use OE for pleasure, and currently use NewsRover for work. I have used
FreeAgent and Agent in the past, and had no problems setting either of them.
The question is who really cares what Harry or I use for reading newsgroups.

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.

Yes, I know that...and in fact that is what a friendly fellow at FORTE
once recommended, but it is a pain in the buttski to set up and use.

===================================

I believe it's as simple as creating multiple unique file directories,
and doing a separate install into each. From there you can drag
shortcut icons to the desktop and give each shortcut a different name.

Agent is one of the easiest of programs to use and set up...for most people.
