I seem to have fixed this by removing all the .cnm files out of my mailbox then putting them back

Consider SNOWY the server and SATCHEL the client.  Make no changes to SNOWY, just run pconfig on SATCHEL to point to the mailboxes on SNOWY.   Test the path to the \MAIL directory on SNOWY from SATCHEL using Windows Explorer to confirm you are using a valid path in pconfig.  Make sure you have full control permission to \MAIL (including subfolders) from SATCHEL.

Alternatively, there is no need to run the Pegasus Mail installed on SATCHEL because you can share the installation that is on SNOWY.  A shortcut to winpm-32.exe on SNOWY from SATCHEL is how you do it. 

A few additional points:

1)  You don't need your wife to exit Pegasus Mail when you want to use it.  Pegasus Mail can handle being run by multiple users.  It is the act of accessing the same mailbox simultaneously by multiple users that must be avoided.

2)  There is an executable in the Pegasus Mail executables folder named wssetup.exe (stands for WorkStationSetup).  Running this makes the registry entries and other system changes needed for a PC to run a Pegasus Mail installation that resides on another machine.  You won't need to do this because you have already had Pegasus Mail installed on SATCHEL but this is important for anyone else considering doing this.

3)  Be very careful when opening pmail.cfg with an editor.  It is one of the few configuration files in Pegasus Mail that can be easily broken by manual editing.  An inadvertant extra space or space deletion is all it takes.

When one of the mail servers that I use is acting up,  I have found that I can send mail using Gmail configured for

"Sending mail from a different address", <https://support.google.com/mail/answer/22370>.

I rebooted, re-did the email from scratch, and left out a bcc address, and it sent normally - in "an instant."

How odd.

Thank you for information .I managed to fix the issue. Copied over all the information from the old to the new mailbox and Pegasus tells me that it is running version 4.63 :-)

Thanks for your suggestions.

IMHO  a worker should not be using his/her account to send out mass mailings. If nothing else it will damage the reputation of the company and risk labelling it as a spammer. Possible solutions may include setting up distribution lists with less than 100 recipients, or using the Pegasus Mail Mailmerge utility, see Pegasus Mail help under topic "Mail merge"  Mail Merge can be found when composing a message under the "Merge" tab.

Be aware that some ISPs will limit the number of mail messages that may be sent in a period of time.

 Have been using Pegasus with both Fastmail <http://www.fastmail.fm> and GMX <http://www.gmx.com> via IMAP for years no problems. Mailstore on both IMAP servers is over 15k items each.

 GMX is a bit hard to find the configuration for standalone clients but can be done.

Do not like web mail screens and Pegasus handles IMAP much better than other clients (Mulberry / Alpine are IMAP champs - no html rendering).

if you search the forum there are a number of Yahoo issues raised and answered. 

It doesn't matter in which folder the copy to self is ... Pegasus shows the recipient due to the special format of his copy to self. For me it works in every IMAP-Folder. Have a look at the raw text.

If you generate a outgoing copy with another mailreader on same IMAP-Mailbox, that mailreader will generate a simple copy of that mail in SENT. For Pegasus this is a normal mail - no copy to self.

Note: Copy to Self with Pegasus is not the same as Outgoing Copy with any other mailreader.

Wrong guesswork above re M & T lines. Further experimentation suggests that the M line is generated when the Message is queued for delivery (if that's what you've configured the SMTP definition to do), and the T line is generated when you send the queued mail.

actually you CAN make it work in program files if you want to by editing the directory permissions.  It is though simpler to just install in c:\PMail but again DO check the directory permissions for PMail and sub folders and windows 7 has a habit of not giving you full access to folders that you created in the first place.

This is ironically especially a problem with new folders created in the Program Data directory structure which was I thought supposed to be for programs to save data to....

[quote user="Mottel"]
I've found that Pegasus can have concurrent IMAP connections open to two servers, and copy emails from, say, a Yahoo mail acct to a Gmail account by copying them from one IMAP folder to the other in Pegasus.
[...]
I'd like to know: is that date going directly from remote server a to remote server b, or is it going via my computer, so that (if the latter is true) I'm really downloading and then uploading each item?

The latter; yes.

[quote user="Theresa"]Does anyone have a solution for me?[/quote]

It's very likely that the folder opens somewhere outside of the visible screen: Try via Pegasus Mail's menu bar Window => Cascade to reposition all open windows (after opening the new mail folder) in a distinct order from where you can restore their sizes and positions according to your personal preferences.

Pegasus Mail might be minimizing to the Notification area.  Win7 hides icons in the Notification area so click the "Show Hidden Icons" triangle and see if the Pegasus Mail icon is there when it it minimized.

You might want it to minimize to the taskbar instead.  If so, go to Tools > User interface > Reporting/logging and unselect the "Hide the Pegasus Mail taskbar entry when minimized" option.

Since Pegasus is an e-mail client not a wordprocessor there are limits as to what can be passed from Word 2003 into the Pegasus editor. If you do require the formatting to be 'exact', you could save the Word 2003 as PDF (cutePDF is a great 'printer' for pdf creation from any WinXX application) and attach to the email itself. Would be higher quality than an image embed.

Food for thought.

Johnny,

I have been assisted many times by the very best, "Mr. Thomas Stephensons," as well as these that are presently assisting now. They are good and very patient with all, this issue had just about driven me completely KNUTS. From what I had been told, the Mail folder should be within the same folder the programs folder is within, in other words, example:

 X:\PMail\Mail

(X:)\PMail\Programs

Those are supposed to be connected on the same drive . . you can place it anywhere as long as they are together. In other words you can place them all on a USB Memory Stick or a Micro Mini Chip or even an external USB H/D, but; expect it to run rather slow and give some issues. I had started with v4.63 and still had issues especially running slow, that is when the decision was made by me to create a separate partition on the main H/D and load it there, mine is on F:\ of the main hard drive. Runs much faster and only problems I have now are not knowing or not understanding what to do and that is getting out of my way as I learn more.

This is getting to be too long and you need to work . . good to know improvements are showing up . . keep going . .

P.S. Also pleased you can read through my fingers not spelling correctly some of the time . . 

It sounds like a mouse driver problem.  I would suggest you first try reverting to a classic mouse on a cable to see if standard mouse wheel actions work. Pegasus Mail uses standard Windows mouse drivers from companies such as Microsoft and Logitech.  The fact that no one else is reporting this problem suggests it is occuring on few if any other user PCs. The number of 64 bit Windows machines is growing rapidly. So for instance are you on the latest version of the vendor drivers for 64 bit? Also are the other mouse actions such as left and right click still working?

In Windows 7 it is also worth checking the directory permissions for any folders you create as often the user creating them does not have full control.  All users who will be logged on and using PMail will need at least read and write permissions in the folders where email is stored (in your case I believe you are planning to use C:\PMail\Mail....  It is worth making sure that all users have full control of this directory and all subdirectories and files.

Thank you for the answers.

My first contact with W7 is far from easy. But I finally found how to un-hide files and directories and found the PMAIL.CFG (sorry for the name confusion) in AppData. The contents seemed correct.

 I looked again at the referenced post that UAC seems to be a real pain.

But as Jerry advised also, better to install PMAIL in c:\pmail.

So I uninstalled from C:\Program Files\ and re-installed to C:\pmail and still following the method I use to do (like Thomas Stephenson indicates also) , so without a pre-configured mailbox, and configured the mail box location later.

This time I can get at my mail for all users, so I suppose it has all to do with the UAC approach in W7 and the way pmail handles data and program.

Hi there,

   This is a known problem with this company's invoices. It should only happen if you are using Bearhtml to do the html rendering. To prove this out, while viewing this message, key in Shift + Ctrl + R which will turn off rendering of CSS content in the message. Close and re-open the message and it should appear correctly formatted.
