I’ve been trying to view usenet posts from 2001 in Forte Agent. I’ve downloaded and extracted the relevant files (in a folder “Data” under “Agent”), but I can’t get Agent to display anything beyond alt.test, 000 and Inbox under “Subscribed Groups”. The latter two are folders, but nothing happens when I click any of them.

I’ve tried to use the manual to find where I went wrong, but it’s 200 pages long and constantly making references to things that no longer apply; for instance, talking about retrieving online data.

Can anyone please help?
