As I said in a previous post, I've successfully installed Agent 1.93
using Crossover Office 2.1 on Mandrake 9.2. So I can keep using Agent
regardless; I'm just curious about wxWindows.

I tried Pan a ways back. I don't recall that it is "yENC" enhanced.
Also, Agent is a fine mail client as well as nntp.
