Note: You are posting here using Outlook Express. As I recall, it lets
you configure differently how to construct a message for e-mail versus
how for newsgroups. Do not post to newsgroups using HTML. This is a
text newsgroup. Usenet is not an e-mail venue for communication.

The year is 2023.

If you have an old text based reader, delete it and install a modern
newsreader capable of HTML.

Usenet is text-based. HTML doesn't belong here.

Yes. This. Exactly.

Note: Buzz's top-posting style was converted to the Usenet netiquette
norm of bottom posting. Again, Usenet is NOT an e-mail venue. E-mail
top posts, by default. Usenet bottom posts.

And your version of Forte Agent was released back in 2014. That you
misconfigure for use in newsgroups it is your fault.

Perhaps you should stop using a combination client that does both e-mail
and newsgroups. By using different clients for different communication
venues, you'll learn to distinguish them as NOT the same thing.

This is NOT an HTML newsgroup. Don't post here using HTML regardless of
using an old or new NNTP client. Even "modern" NNTP clients can compose
in text. NNTP is *not* an e-mail protocol. Usenet is not e-mail.

Anyone that continues posting here using HTML (a mental defect
exhibited, for example, by Good Guy who lies about why he uses HTML) is
being rude, and will soon be designated a troll.

Even you managed to post here using text (Content-Type: text/plain) with
your c.2014 "modern" NNTP client. Does Agent not let you separately
configure top- versus bottom-posting based on protocol (i.e.,
differentiate between e-mail and NNTP posting style)? I recall that was
a defect of Outlook Express that not even OE-QuoteFix fixed, but I
thought Agent was a more capable e-mail+newsgroups client. Maybe not.

Typical ad hominem attack noted.

Yep, we've got a troll. Hasn't a clue the difference between etiquette
and law.
