The problem is not a "bug" in _any_ version of Agent.
It is the posing format that is the problem.

Not true, at all.
In FACT it is often the case downloaders have to
be _told_ to turn "autojoin" 0ff as the default is 0n.

So it __is__ the posting tool that is the problem.
FYI?
Power Post had this exact same problem until it was rectified
after many many years of peeps telling PP users their posts
were shite, few listened.
Eventually someone rewrote the script producing A&A and
CamelPost versions of PowerPost.
The problem was fixed, sure, but A&A and CP still retain the
other bugs that give Usenet posts the faults we find today.
You want to use a Schmeisser to post with?
Use this - a PP fork that actually works.

Embroid design sets are very small archives. Such tools as your
Schmeisser are not required to get a post seen and retrieved.

Yeh, like, every downloader has to alter their install just to
suit a bunch of Schmeisser tossers who refuse to post files that
are retrievable:-/

There is no need to "install Agent more then 1 times" to achieve
the outcome you are trying to give <Surprise>.
The method is simply a copy of <agent.ini> and creation of a
shortcut for <agent.exe> to the copy.

Indeed, You are that same tosser who fills the silly group with
shite, then advertises the Schmeisser posts in this group, yes?
Gigs of garbage grabbed from a server we (of old) all know well.
Tell us (tinu)?
Did that NDJ wanker leave you his server in estate, or are you
the executor of the wankers will, now determined to fill Usenet
with his crap... again?
.. jes asking, like.
..... should you not wish to embarrasses yourself further in
public you can always mail your comment
-->jerimiah_hezelbutt @ hushmail.com
is read by myself. Maybe (like Jean) it is just your poor
language skills being misread?
