How to enable Megajoin

[Donald]

I'm not a big Usenet user but I ran across something from the forte website
called Megajoin. I know what it's supposed to do but I don't see where to enable
it. I watched a video from Forte on the wayback machine and it mentioned
enabling it. I don't see that in any of the options in Agent 8, but I might have
missed it.

Where in Agent 8.x do we enable Megajoin?

Thanks!!!


Donald

A MegaJoin post looks different to a 'normal' joined binary post before the body is downloaded.
Here is an example

(a) Example: join, but not a MegaJoin --> <Loading Image...>

Thanks, Ralph!

Looks like it's the default selection since it's checked and I never checked
that option.
