Options/General Preferences is the best I can do in pointing where to

Put your Maggy in the Full Name bit. Do not put your real full name!
I don't know how Agent has changed in a million upgrades since my
version. So I am not real sure what you are looking at. Leave "reply
to" blank.
Oh, and make your email me@home.invalid
Ok. Now set your line settings to split at, say 570000 characters per
message (9047 lines). You can set it for anything under 10000 lines.
This makes a comfortable split for servers. It's polite. (!)
And set it for Uuencode. NOT yEnc. Yes, you have posted this in Uue,
so don't panic!
yEnc is another form of encoding that is not well received by Outlook
Express or Windows Live users. And they won't know why if they are
newbies. Which was my first thought when your files were not being
received by Outlook Express users. But it was a posting problem, not a
receiving problem.
You are looking for a window that looks similar to the attached pic.
Mine was in Group/Default Properties.
I use the Default Properties as I post the same to all groups. Not
that I move around much. It's a bit wild in the other groups! Lots of
nutters...
The send text as separate option and display filename option I use to
keep text separate from the attachment so people can read the text and
opt to download the attachment and will be able to see what the
attachment is in the subject line.
By choosing to put the attachment name in the header, a new thread
should be forced, and now I should not be in the thread in answer to
your work.
There is a way to fix that, but that is for another day.
This is because Agent is set to see new characters in the subject line
as a different subject altogether.
You may have seen thank you's added to a subject line and they are
separate to the main body of the thread? I'm not sure how Uexplorer
handled this, so maybe not.
Yaye!
Great stuff!
How long is the trial period for Agent??
You can still use your UsenetExplorer account to retrieve stuff, but
posting files with it is probably pointless now you have Agent and
will be posting like a professional in no time. :-D
