FA 1.7 is out for a few weeks now, here are a few of the improvements:

�	We fixed a bug that caused Agent to read the entire GROUPS.IDX file once
per second if the Online Get New Headers in Subscribed Groups button was on the
toolbar.  This bug caused the slow operation reported by many users.

�	We fixed a bug that caused a stack overflow GPF when Agent encountered a
file I/O error accessing its database.

�	We found that the charset warning message was confusing to many people.
It was especially confusing if you replied to a message that contained
unencodable characters, and the warning was displayed because of the quoted
text.  The essential problem is that common practice is to assume that the
Windows 1252 codepage and charset iso-8859-1 are identical, even though they are
not.  Since our attempt to wage a solitary fight for charset purity seems to
have failed, we have added an option to Agent to have it follow common practice.
Thus, the default Languages Send As selection for codepage 1252 is now "Western
Windows-compatible".  This selection causes Agent to assume that codepage 1252
and charset iso-88591-1 are identical, and to effectively eliminate the charset
warning.  Charset purists are free to select one of the other "Western" options,
which enforce strict RFC conformance.

LOL! Too funny :-))

P.S. You really should get a crack for Agent.
