Being a Kiwi myself, I thought, Pegasus might be worth a try. However, I got stuck with the address book. The mail provider I am using for years supports CardDAV (only) as a protocol. Is there any change to synchronize Pegasus Mail with the address book on the mail server? Grateful for every hint in this direction, as for me it will be absolutely essential to work with that remote address book!
I have gone into Tools->Options->Content Viewers and associated .vcs and .ics extensions to pmical.exe. When I get an email with an attachment with one of these extensions, clicking Open opens it with pmical.exe.
I receive many Teams invitations that have an attachment called Calendar that has no extension. The description given to it by Pegasus is "Calendar invitation or information".
I have tried adding to "content viewers" an 'Attachment type' information that matches "Calendar invitation or information" . I also tried this and added .ics as the extension for Temporary File Handling. This did not work.
Is there a way to get pmical.exe to open these files?
Hello, Looks like a move from Win10 to Win11 is due soon, put off for long enough. Whats the best way to to make this as seamless as possible. Done this years ago just cant recall the steps. Point me to earlier link if easier. Thanks Doug

I do not know how to attache file with this message for rewiew Martin
Hi all, I want to convert to Pegasus from Postbox and want to know if there were any issues to be aware of from people who have done this. I have maintained complete email continuity since 1994 sticking only to email clients with human readable storage formats. So I am delighted to have learned about Pegasus, now that Postbox was bought and no longer maintained.
As I understand it, Postbox actually uses the mbox format so all I have to do is rename my Postbox files with a .mbx suffix and Pegasus will see, read and index them automatically.
I also have 2 primary email accounts with gmail, with one of them having 4 aliases/identities.
Can anybody help with SMTP servers for an IMAP account? I tried many times and got always the same error message, saying: "The e-mail address you have entered does not contain an '@' symbol, which means that it is probably incorrect."
But as you can see at this screenshot actually there is a symbol @ in the address I entered. What's wrong?
Hi, I've a feeling I asked a similar question long ago, but can't find the full answer. I want to delete some old folders, but, when I try, it says the Folder is open and has to be closed to delete it. How do i do this?
My main email account is on Gmail. Starting on 8/29, I started to have a weird problem. When running PMAIL on my Windows computer, every time I download my new messages, I get multiple copies of the same messages, over and over again. It takes a lot of time to go through all of them and leave one copy to actually read. And then, the download does the same thing again. Again, the emails being retrieved are from 8/29 on.
I also use email on my Android mobile phone to retrieve the same messages, but the problem does not occur.
My Pegasus lived on a freenas window share with all my other files, videos, movies and so on. I upgraded from freenas to truenas and also acquired drives with more storage. Before doing anything, I backed the whole server up to a 10TB drive. everything, directory by directory, with verification. removed old drives, installed new drives. Installed truenas. And got a new window share up and running. I copied everything back to the new window share.
Before i started, Pegasus ran ok. After finishing, I got this message: User do not exists. HELP!
Here is a part of a file.

Is there any way to bulk enable/disable the hosts found in the pop3/smtp section of the tools/internet options section?
I have many in there that I need to temporarily disable/enable for testing.
You cannot shift select multiple entries in this list for a simple enable/disable. Clicking on each one individually is not ideal. The focus also does not go back to the entry after clicking the enable/disable button which could make life easier if you combined the keyboard arrows and a mouse click to achieve a quicker result.
I am re-building my address books after a crash. Now when I create an email address and click to enter the address in the message box, the program tells me that "name" is not a valid address. The program does not connect the "name" with the address I put in the "Email Address:" box.
I have PMail installed with the -roaming and multi-user parameters, and my mail is located in a directory separate from my PMail program directory. I am thinking of moving it to the Dropbox directory, so I can have my mail accessible from both the desktop and the laptop (with the usual precaution of being sure that PMail is closed on the other). 1) is there any known problem associated with this? 2) should I do this from the "general settings / mailbox location tab" in Preferences--where the current installation is given as "<default>"--or should I close PMail, move the file manually, and then do a reinstall of the program, setting the mailbox location through the installation wizard? 3) the Help file refers both to a "main" folder and a "default" folder to which the new mail goes. What are these and how do they differ (as far as I know the "main" folder is just one of many in my folder list).
My mom is a Pegasus user, and somehow managed to move her mail reader window so that the title bar and the button bar are off of the parent window (above it). She's unable to use any of the buttons that she's used to, as they're not visible any longer. I'm my family's unpaid tech support, so I tried to figure out how to move that window using the keyboard. The usual "alt-space" opens the system menu of the application (parent) window rather than the reader (child) window. The window can be closed using the ESC key, but the next reader you open opens in the same off-window position.
Since that window opens in the same place even after you close the application I looked for INI files or registry entries that could be updated, but while I found several "xyz Rectangle" entries I didn't find any that contained negative coordinates.
Looking for a way to move that window back fully into the parent window. Suggestions welcome, and thanks in advance.
I have discussed this in the past with Brian F, but I am now getting on in years and I forget things! I have a "Recent Searches List" that is now 108 items long! Too long!!! I want to delete all of the entries. If I find and go to the system file that contains all of these searches, and delete all of the entries, what else do I have to delete to get rid of the attached, or referenced, lists of results"
Is there a way to enlarge the typeface in the selective download results? I have been able to get bigger, bolder typeface/fonts in most areas of Pegasus with the global controls but the selective download results page is immune to change. (Search results pages seem to be immune to changes too.) Thanks.
Hello Everyone another simple question from what appears to be simpleton. I believe I asked before but somehow must have accidentally deleted so please forgive asking again
I'm trying to send a couple of emails which includes attachments but my attachments are taking too long to process. Gets up to around 85% then times out.
How can I extend the timing to extend more so the email can complete the process? Where should I go and do what. Can somebody offer a step by step process
Would appreciate help on this thank you in advance
Using V4.81 for 3 separate mailboxes for 20 plus years and I'm thinking of converting them from POP to IMAP and I'm wondering if there's a simple way to do this?
All three of these mailboxes have hundreds of folders and thousands of emails and I'm hoping there might be a simple way to switch?
Is there a tutorial for this that someone could point me to?
If it's very complicated, is there a way to view old emails in the POP account and just start to use new emails in an IMAP account for one of the users?
