There is a post in the Commnity Support regarding this. Sorry do not know how to reference. Basic idea:

Reading the blog and forums for Fastmail I was able to find this tidbit:

Try changing the hostname to insecuressl.messagingengine.com. We've added a couple of extra IP addresses and configured that hostname with SSLv2 support.

 ------------------------

Does work, otherwise use the non-SSL port (143).

Yes, I read the update on the blog after I posted here.  Thanks for the response.

Check the MercuryS log and the core log to see what is happening! If the message file (.CNM) is in the right mailbox directory you should be able to collect the message with IMAP.

In case you have any realtime antivirus software running please make sure to exclude all Mercury directories from scanning.

I was wondering whether Pegasus uses IDLE

Many thanks for the quick reply - I'll keep my boxes checked!

Kind regards

I do not have problems deleting on GMail with my test accounts.  Try enabling Settings | Labs | Advanced IMAP controls and then you will be able to choose which labels show up in IMAP, turn off message auto-expunging, or trash messages when they're deleted from IMAP.

Wow! Turning off auto-expunging seems to do the trick. Thank you, Mr. Stephenson!

Cheers!

Hello,

I decides to convert vom POP3 to IMAP. I made a new account for my IMPAP and can open both sides. On the IMAP-Side, I can create Folders etc.

But when I try to pull my old Folders from POP3 to the IMAP-side, Pegasus crashes after about 5 messages. The only chance is a complete new start.

This is not a good idea for 1700 mails    [:S]

My hoster ist strato

What is going wrong?

Thank you

Reiner

Dear Sir,

Thanks for your kind reply. That was my mistake and I  correct the same and now working well.

I am trying to help support a user who uses Pegasus as their mail app on their 3 PCs.  I am not a Pegasus user myself.  He currently is configured to use POP.  If I were to help re-configure him to use IMAP, does Pegasus "cache" entire mail messages and attachments, or would he only be able to see the headers of previously-seen messages when he's on a laptop without any Internet connection??  Thanks!

From the PB1 help, should be the same for v4.41.

Using an IMAP profile Off-line

As you use an IMAP profile online, Pegasus Mail will build up a cache of information from the remote IMAP mailbox. This means that information about folders, headers and messages is stored locally on your PC. Pegasus Mail allows you to access this locally cached data in offline mode, without requiring any kind of network connectivity to the remote host. When you mount an IMAP profile offline, you can see all the folders in the profile, and can read any messages that are present in the folder cache. In offline mode, the IMAP profile is read-only - you cannot delete, change or add messages or folders in the profile while offline.

To use an IMAP profile offline, you must already have connected to it online at least once. Certain options on the "Performance" page  of the IMAP definition editor, most notably the Fast Listing and Subscribed folders options, will prevent you from using a profile in offline mode if they are set. Actually using the profile offline is simplicity itself - simply click the Use offline button in the profile list window instead of the Connect button.

Hint: if you want to make sure that all the messages in a folder are available for use in offline mode, right-click the folder in the list of folders and select the Cache all messages option from the right-click menu.

David,

Wow! That was all three years ago, and my memory isn't what it once was, but the short answer is that everything works fine, with the caveats mentioned in the thread, i.e., that there can only be one IMAP client per user open at one time, so I have to close the client when I walk away from a computer. But Mercury continues to deliver to Pegasus flawlessly. From time to time, Mercury seems to hang up on processing deleted messages (they reappear in the client after changing folder views), and I have to stop and restart it, but it's a minor issue.

If you have some specific questions, I'll try to search the memory banks and come up with responses.

Best regards,

Mike

To access your emails in offline mode you need to convert your Exchange OST file into PST formats using an OST to PST Converter tool. 

Yes. This really works. Thanks a lot.

If you like me are on the road sometimes, or even abroad - you may get a synchronization error. Most likely the folder structure is out of synch. Windows Mobile, or Outlook Mobile 6 is very poor on supporting a proper implementation of IMAP. Nevertheless the benfits are there, in that you can have your messages stored on the servers, with copies of sent items.

However, the IMAP specification only states the INBOX as a standard mail box. Meaning many implementations in different languages will suffer.

Figure the following structure on your cell-phone

Maildrop
-- Inkorgen (INBOX)
-- Skickat (sent items)
-- Borttaget (Trash bin)
-- Utkast (Draft)

How do you know that these names match with the server?

Answer: You use telnet - but, it isn't straight forward from the RFC.

Do the following to get read the maildrop mailboxes through Telnet.

Start a command line interpreter
Start telnet with: Telnet host.domain.com 143
You'll see an answer like * OK host.domain.com bla bla bla ready.
Type: A1 LOGIN <username> <password>
You'll get an answer like A1 OK LOGIN completed.
Type: A2 LIST "" "%"
And you'll get an answer like:
* LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" INBOX
* LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" Borttaget
* LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" Skickat
* LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" tt4
* LIST (\NoInferiors) "/" Utkast
A3 OK LIST completed.

If a mailbox is missing compared to your cell-phone, create it by typing
A4 CREATE mailboxname

When you're done, terminate the connection by typing:
A5 LOGOUT
