Mr. Martin,

Did not know the IERenderer was not installed in my version of PMail, using the latest v4.63 for the last, almost a year, and just went to the location for downloading IERndr and installed same.  Do not need to do what you have suggested in your post, it seems the problem was fixed by actaully installing IERenerer latest version along with the latest LibTidy.dll file that was installed but not the latest.  They are working just fine now.

Thank you for your post and suggestion, suspected NewEgg was part of the problem, but; never thought I was also.  Surprise, surprise, awakening . .

Will this help?

Tools > Options > User interface > Reporting/logging >  Show System Message window after applying filtering rules

From the help file:  If you check this control, Pegasus Mail will automatically open the System Message window any time filtering rules  are applied to a folder and affect at least one message. This is a useful way of seeing at a glance what actions the filtering system has taken with your messages.

Thanks, that's what I have done and my work-around is based on those logging settings which in conjunction with an unread 'dummy' message in my inbox (which alway triggers a 'dummy' rule) makes the message window appear even when there is no other rule being triggered.

I thought there might be another switch to allow the message window to alway show.

Thanks
 

Hello again

    I had forgotten a utility I wrote some time ago, which downloads email messages from Outlook folders to Pegasus Mail NewMail directory. It is available at my website at http://www3.telus.net/public/irelam/pm2msm.zip  It will migrate one folder at a time so if  you have a lot of folders to do, it might be too laborious. One caveat: you should ensure your Newmail directory is empty before running the migration, so you can then move the messages to their proper new folders.

HTH  any questions on its use, fire me a note

Martin 

In the new installation I had forgotten to set is to run as admin. Once done, the problem is solved (well, everytime I run PM, Windows asks permission, but that's not a serious issue).

I have just to climb to learning curve now, in particular identities and multiple accounts. Something to play with in the week-end [:D]

Thanks for your help. [D]

It might be a good idea to wait for a command to the server to complete before issuing another.

It may be worth noting that with "File/Selective Mail Download..." you can check your message senders, titles and sizes; also by double clicking on any messages showing in the list you can read all the message header data including the addresses through which the message has come.   I find this useful for checking any doutbful messages that I don't wish to come any where near my machine.  Such messages can be deleted on the ISP server without affecting your machine.

As an addition: They might even not display as URLs in such cases if the sender chose a formatting (such as black on white without underlining) that visually hides them (for whatever obscure reason). You might nevertheless detect them as hyperlinks by watching the mouse pointer change to a "hand" symbol when moving accross the supposed URL and a popup hint showing up displaying the hidden address.

it seems simple, I'll try it now

thanks

The Folder window may be opening outside of the visible area of the Pegasus Mail main window.  To resolve this, restart Pegasus Mail then hit Ctrl+L to open the Folder window.  Now go to the Window pull-down menu and select Tile.  Hopefully the Folder window will be visible.  Resize and reposition the open windows to your liking.

That fixed it. :)

Thank you very much. 

The background color of all the toolbar icons in my PMail (4.63 build 325) has turned black for some reason. It's not an issue with respect to the function of the program itself but the graphics on some of the icons is difficult to read above the black. I've looked through the configuration settings and don't find anything that would affect the background color(s).  Sometimes when/if I reboot the machine the backgrounds will come back white but eventually turn to black again. Kinda wierd ... anyone else experience  this? Is there something I'm missing in the configuration?

Thanks ...

I'm running PM4.63 (build 325) on an XP Pro 64bit OS, Jerry. Now just as suddenly as they changed to a black background, this time when I launched PM they're back to light grey. I'll toy around with the theme settings and whatnot if/when it happens again. Thanks for the pointers to possible remedies. It's not a big (or even small) problem, really, just a curiosity.

 Oh, the reason there was no screen cap as implied is that I couldn't get an image at a decent resolution to show what's happening within the size limits of the forum. If in the future I need to provide something like a screen image that's beyond the forum size limit, how would you suggest it be done, if it's even possible?

Sorry, I posted too soon and couldn't delete anymore either. Here are three reasons why 'autoreplacement' didn't seem to work for me:

 1. New entries are added not in alphabetical order, but at the bottom of the list, so I didn't see my new entries.

2. I tried to get Pegasus to replace ANSI text with Unicode text, but it can replace only ANSI text with ANSI text

3. Text gets replaced when pressing the space bar, while I tried it out using the 'Enter' key which doesn't work.

The autorplc.pm file doesn't always seem to get updated when a new 'autoreplacement' entry is added. I haven't figured yet out why.....

Adding the Unicode text to the autorplc.pm file and then saving it (with the unicode) option doesn't help either.

So, what I wanted to do seems impossible.

[quote user="markflint"]Quick question on this topic: If I want to port my address books and email file folders to a different computer that has Pegasus installed will copying the PMM, PMA AND CNR files to the PMail folder do the trick? Old computer is XP, new one Windows 7[/quote]

Are you currently using Pegasus Mail from a server machine install? Was that a typo error or did you really mean .cnr files (raw files that make up data of public folder messages)? There is more to display of .cnr files than just the raw data. Public folders must be installed on machine.

Was old machine using winpm-32 from local hard drive or was it running from a server  install? Was new mail and home mail location on the local drive or on server?

You may copy the .pmm and .pmi folder files and address book pair files and .cnm new mail message files from old machine to new machine c:\pmail\mail\<user> location.

Perhaps if you expound upon your query others can assist.

While hyperlinks can not be hidden in the message reader, their click-ability and highlighting may be controlled at:
Tools > Options | Incoming mail > Hyperlinks

If in the message editor you desire like:

use the "Insert a hyperlink" button while composing a formatted text message.

Relevant settings:

 Tools > Options | Outgoing mail > Messages and replies
  Use these settings when creating...
   Rich (formatted) text [x] On

 Tools > Options | Outgoing mail > Message formating
  Formating and use of styling in messages
   [] Disable all styling options...
   [] Do not display the editor 'styles' toolbar

Ahh yes...  copyself, junk, main are all there.  Good to know, thanks.

This folder is where I would expect the autofilter to be.

Also, right clicking on a folder name shows an Autofilters > "Manage autofilter folders" option which might provide some insight.

Greetings Brian,

Bingo. Right-on. ...and Thank you.

That was indeed the source of my issue.

The auto-filtering at the folder level was turned on and the culprit

was my own email address listed in the addresses column.

Oddly enough I have no recollection of

setting this up. I must have enabled this accidentally. Being my

satellite system it went unnoticed. Also of interest (at least to me)

on my main system the vast majority of my filters were set up

manually for years, probably well before the “auto-filter”

feature was introduced. Thanks again for all your help.

Cheers

[quote user="bfluet"]There are some other threads that indicate reinstalling Pegasus Mail, running it once to create its registry entries (the uninstaller needs these entries), then uninstalling HTML Renderer followed by uninstalling Pegasus Mail should work.  I can't find any verification of this though.  If you try it, I would be grateful if you would report back on your results.[/quote]

After updating IER to its latest version the uninstaller should work properly as well if not finding PM itself (but you can only install IER with PM pre-installed, of course). Please let me know if it doesn't.

I had a similar problem and the font item in the reader menu wasn't changing the font size in the reader.  I found I had to go to Tools>Options>Incoming Mail>Message Reader and uncheck, Where a choice of format exists, display the fancy version.
