Tweaking Forte Agent to send control messages

Shut down Agent if it is running.


In Agent/Data find the agent.ini file. Use Notepad or Wordpad to open it.


Find the section titled [Message].


Under [Message] you will find the command "ShowAllFields=0"


Change that to "ShowAllFields=1".


Close and reopen Agent.

You will now see the headers "approved" and "control" in your Usenet message window. (Don't fill in those fields permanently or you may accidentally get into trouble for self-approving a post to a moderated group.)

Make sure wordwrap is *OFF*!!! (Dire warning)

Thanks to BarB, William Bagnell and Co.
