Wait till you get your hands on this release. Agent 3.2 pulls it all together with great new functionality.

We are in the final stages of beta testing Agent 3.2. The feature set is complete and we are fixing a few last bugs and smoothing the interface. We expect to release Agent 3.2 before the end of the month.

Agent 3.2 includes the following new features:

Multiple Email Accounts

Agent 3.2 enables you to collect email from multiple POP servers and send email via multiple SMTP servers.

Multiple Personas

Protect your identity on the Internet by creating personas for both email and newsgroup postings. Personas determine how your From address, signature and other settings are initialized when composing messages.

SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)

Ensure your privacy with SSL, an encryption protocol for establishing a secure connection between your computer and a server on the Internet. Agent provides SSL for both news (NNTP) and email (POP & SMTP) connections.

Forte is focused on developing new email and newsreader functionality for the Agent family of products. We are also developing new service offerings to complement Forte's Agent Premium News (APN) Service.

The Forté Team
