Guy,

You are my hero today!  

When I went into my Gmail account, I found a "settings" option and took a peek inside. 

Yes, there was such a setting listed and below that was an option which I have now selected:

"Enable POP for all mail (even mail that's already been downloaded.")

Now I will maintain settings in PMail to reflect that I do not want mail deleted and I will deselect the option for only downloading mail that's already been read since the last download.

Hopefully, now I will be able to maintain duplicates of my mail on both computers.  I had noticed that I can download my mail into my Android phone and still download it again into Pmail on one computer. Now, hopefully, I can download onto both.

I can't thank you enough. Even though I've been a user, and even a computer professional since the mid-90's, the technology keeps changing and it's not possible to keep up with it all unless you are fully invested in that part of the profession, which I no longer am. I have given details here in case someone else has a similar question in the future and finds this thread.

With much gratitude,

Judi  :-)

Hi, I have seen one or two similar questions but they have not helped me unfortunately. This has only started within the past 10 days or so. I've checked everything I can think of (Which isn't much as I'm not very technical) but things have worked OK for the past few years without problems, now this!

There doesn't seem to be a pattern because today on the preview I saw amongst others 12 messages from Facebook several from the same group but only managed to download 2 of them? Any help or suggestions would be much  appreciated

Thanks

Paul

Yes, I found that thread already. That was how I found out about the trick of moving the message, changing the properties and moving it back. But the overall bottom line on that thread (which is over 4 years old) was that there was no way to do this in Pegasus Email. Just wondered if anything had moved on, or I am just missing something stupid.

The message is badly formatted and cannot be recovered. Please suggest to the sender that they forward the original message in simple text format.,  The original message contains blocks of binary zeroes and has wrongly coded mime headers.

[quote user="sfleury"]Is IERenderer 2.4.7.2 associated with IE10 and should I have an "older" version of IERenderer co with IE9 ?[/quote]

No, it is not (I'm using IE 10 with it and so do many other people; BTW I'm using Windows 7 - 64 as well and it should allow you to install IE 10!). Please read and install the MiniDump extension as advised, it should create a dump of this error which will show me what part of IERenderer's code may cause it so I can figure out the issue.

Are you using the three panel "Preview Mode"?

Look at:
  Tools > Options
  Preview mode settings
  [x] Remember and apply each folder's sorting mode separately

Exit Pegasus via the menu File > Exit

Yes you can download without deleting or with deleting, your choice.

You can also look at whats on the server and delete anything you want too.

-mark for download

-mark for download with delete

-mark fot delete only

-make it so.

[quote user="Bobby"]When using PMail I change to Classic mode but every time I go back in to check my mail the system has reverted to preview mode.  What do I have to do to have the application remember my settings so that I do not have to switch.

Make sure the pmail.ini file is not marked read only and also the state.pmj file too. Failure to save settings may also be a symptom of a new or changed install and to improper location that the win7 system thinks is protected location. Are you running your install from the c:\pmail location only? That is where it must be on all Vista and later systems.

Look at Help, About, Info display to see where the winpm-32 is located and also to see where the home and new mail box location is. It should be c:\pmail\mail\admin for a new full clean install.

Been away for a while but decided I would continue to use drive mapping as it works.

Thanks for any help & suggestions.

Thanks, Jerry, for the quick reply (via email). Forcing the server address for all outgoing mail got checked at some point. (Tools/Options/Outgoing mail)

 Back in business.

Really appreciate this forum and the great support it offers.

Thanks for the response - since we only have the one mail box I was able finally to edit settings in the default identity for POP3 mail.

Since my posting, I have found the problem and report it here in case anybody else should have a smiliar problem.

My new laptop came with a 30 day free trial of Norton Security, which I signed up for.  The 30 days expired a couple of days ago and, fortunately, I didn't pay to extend it because after it expired Pegasus suddenly started working as it should and as I was able to connect to my server ok.

Norton Security must have been blocking Pegasus from connecting to my ISP.  Some may argue that this is what Norton Security is supposed to do and, while I agree with that, surely it shouldn't block it without telling me it was doing so?  Also, the error message I was receiving within Pegasus was telling me that it was my ISP that was refusing my connection and, although I knew this wasn't true because I was able to connect to it on another computer, I couldn't fathom out why it was telling me that - now I know!

Regards, Flosex 

I was able to solve the problem after finding out that when I tried to copy my PMAIL folder to another drive, one particular file could not be copied.  I looked for the origination folder of the file, saw it was created on the day the problems started, figured that must be it and deleted it.  Voila!

Thanks Brian,

All appears to be working OK now

Greetings, I am wondering if I will be able to use Pagasus Mail on a native MS-DOS 6.22 machine that runs MSClient (WFW Add-on).

I am trying to send email via a batch file. My main program can swap out and free up a few hundred kb of ram.[/quote]

I always use blat to send mails from batch files -   It is simple to use and has a very small footprint.

As far as I can tell blat is not for native DOS but for the 16 or 32 bit Windows command line.

Thanks Irelam,

I'm using the option in Sending mail / Permanent BCC address and that works.

As Copy to Self is already doing part of the job, is there a way to tell Pmail to BCC only in case of attachments?

Edit: actually BCC is not the best solution as that means downloading own messages with attachments. Especially if they're big it's quite annoying. I'm quite surprised that Pegasus doesn't automatically saves attachments.

With Pegasus Mail open, click the Help menu item, then click "About Pegasus Mail". Then click the Info button. You will get a screen with a lot of different information.

The item you need is "Home mailbox location".  Note the location.

Next using Windows Explorer, navigate to that address. To make things easier at this point, click on the heading for Type, to get the directory content sorted by filetype.

Scroll down till you find the Pns files. Select any/all of these files, and click Delete .  You are done.  Close and then restart Pegasus Mail, and your signature files are gone.

HTH

Problem solved....Many Thanks!

>Is there anything wrong with:

>C:\PMAIL\winpm-32.exe -Y pmail_leno.ini

The default path is C:\PMAIL\PROGRAMS but if your Pegasus Mail executables reside in C:\PMAIL then your command line should work.

>If I change something here it is changed also when i just start winpm-32.exe 

Mostly not.  Most (but not all) configuration changes are stored in the PMAIL.INI file so configuration changes made when running with the PMAIL_LENO.INI will only be written to the PMAIL_LENO.INI file.  When you just start winpm-32.exe the PMAIL.INI file is used so you will need to make the same configuration changes for it.

As for you previous question about the windows,  I don't remember if I had to open windows when I started using my PMAIL_HI.INI file.  I do remember having to resize and reposition windows though.  Perhaps you need to set the Pegasus desktop up the way you want it for the copied .INI, I just don't remember.   As Jerry said, STATE.PMJ also plays a role in this so in may case, I keep the same folder windows open regardless of which INI file I am running as.  Make a backup of your original .INI file for safe keeping while working at this.
