X-Newsreader: Forte Agent 6.00/32.1186

I'm using Agent 6.0. I'd like it to get new newsgroup messages
automatically every X minutes. I don't think there's a way to do this,
but just in case I'm missing something, I thought I would ask here.

I'm fairly sure you're right.

But, if you're not afraid of programming and learning new languages,
you might try AutoIt. "AutoIt v3 is a freeware BASIC-like scripting
language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general
scripting." You could either have the script running constantly and
popping itself up every x minutes, or have it do one-and-done and pop
it via Windows's scheduler.

Last time I downloaded it, it was from
http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/

Without an external script or something, you can't do this in Agent.
Preventing automatic newsgroup message retrieval seems to be a design
feature deliberately hardwired into the program.
