Forte Agent

Agent, by Forte is a powerful, first-rate newsreader and it's gotten progressively better over the years. Agent can handle multiple newsgroup servers, private newsgroups, and email. It can also deal with both text and binary newsgroups. It also comes with some impressive filtering power so you can get exactly what you want from the newsgroups you subscribe to. It provides the ability to have the program "pull" in content from multiple servers so you have optimum content with a Agent has a lot of configurable options and I always like that. You can have different personas for different newsgroups. That gives you a lot of flexibility. You can have an "official" personal for business and other, more informal personas for other things. The ability to do email makes Agent a killer package because you can have all your email and newsgroups in one application. I personally have run Agent from a USB drive for over 6 months with no problems at all. Keep in mind that this is not a documented feature, but it works for me. Take that for what it's worth. Agent is a powerful yet easy-to-use solution for both newsgroups and email. It's loaded with great features and lots of configurable options. You can customize it in so many ways including filters to route your information and different rules for different folders. The program also makes it very easy to find information that's in the program. Search for text in email or newsgroups and find what you're looking for! Give it a try, I recommend it.
