Titolo: [Agent] Fwd: Release of Agent 1.8

Forte is pleased to announce the release of Agent 1.8. This is a free
upgrade to all Agent customers. Agent 1.8 is also available in a free
30-day trial version for those who prefer to try it out before making
a purchase - see our web site at 
http://www.forteinc.com/agent/tw.htm
for details.
WHAT'S NEW IN THIS RELEASE?
Version 1.8 fixes several bugs that crept into our previous release,
version 1.7, plus some older bugs from earlier versions.  Also, we
added support for SMTP Authentication, which some ISPs are starting to
require their customers to use.  With SMTP Authentication, an ISP can
prevent non-customers from using its mail servers to send spam email.
Full details are in the Release Notes, which you can read at
http://www.forteinc.com/new/release.htm
.  After installing Agent 1.8,
you can also read the Release Notes in Agent's online help.  Simply
select "Release Notes" from Agent's Help menu.
HOW DO I GET AGENT 1.8?
This upgrade is available at no cost to all Agent customers.
** AGENT SITE CUSTOMERS**
IMPORTANT:  If you are an Agent Site Customer, you will receive a
separate announcement with upgrade instructions. In order to upgrade
from Agent 1.7 to 1.8, you will need to download a program that will
upgrade your current copy of the agent.exe. You should *not* download
the full release version as used by individual Agent customers. If you
use the instructions below, it will result in the loss of your branded
licensing within the software, thus prohibiting further use of the
product and requiring special action from Forte customer support to
reactivate your copy of Agent.
** AGENT INDIVIDUAL CUSTOMERS **
IMPORTANT: You should select "Upgrade" and not "New Install" unless
you wish to install a brand new copy of the software.  If you are
installing a brand new copy, you will need to use your registration
key located in the Agent.ini file.  If you are simply upgrading your
existing copy, you will not need to enter your key.
Please follow these steps:
1. Download the Agent Installation program (for 16-bit or 32-bit
Agent).  
Agent 1.8, 16-bit, is available via anonymous FTP from:
 
ftp://ftp.forteinc.com/pub/agent/a16-18.exe
or see the following URL for additional download sites for Agent 1.8:

http://www.forteinc.com/store/getagent.htm
2. Run the installation program.  
For Windows 95/98 users, with Windows Explorer, locate the
installation program you have just downloaded and double-click its
icon.  Or, from the task bar, select Start | Run, and type in the path
name for the installation program.
For Windows 3.1 users, with File Manager, locate the installation
program you have just downloaded and double-click its icon.  Or, from
File Manager, select File | Run, and type in the path name for the
installation program.
3. Follow the instructions provided by the installation program.  If
you are upgrading from a previous version of Agent, select Upgrade.
For a new installation of Agent 1.8, select Full Install.  When
complete, Agent 1.8 should be ready for you to use.
Enjoy!

IMVHO piu' che mai, una mezza delusione. Piu' che altro bug fix, forse la
funzione piu' utile tra quelle aggiunte e':
-----------------
- We added support for the new NEWGROUPS command syntax being used by some
news servers, in which the year is specified using four digits. Agent now
tries the new sytnax if the news server rejects a
command using the old one. 
-----------------
Comunque sto scaricando, vedremo.
Ciao, Alessio.
