Does anyone know where to download earlier Forte Agent Version? Such
as 1.93 or 2.x? I have 3.3 and above in my windows-software directory
so I would like to complete my collection. I've been using Forte Agent
for 22 years!
Looks like nothing older than 3.3 is available from Forte:
https://www.forteinc.com/agent/download-all.php

I would suspect that 1.93 & 2.x are no longer made available as that
was the era when "Free Agent" and (full) "Agent" were made the same
executable -- and the mode depended upon having a registration key. Forte
discontinued "Free Agent" shortly thereafter.

For those versions, go to
https://web.archive.org/web/20040614192202/http://www.forteinc.com/agent/download-all.php
and try selecting an FTP link (some of them appear to work).

IIRC there is an Agent user who has a collection, but I can't find a
URL. Maybe Ralph knows.

If the guy posts an email addy, I could help him.

Put a little extra disguise in the email addy to keep the spam at bay.

I continue to use v 2.00 mainly because later versions changed
"follow-up" to "reply", which I found confusing.

And I've nev er wanted the email component, just the newsreader.
