Hello Roman,

Go to Tools - Options... (Alt+F10)
Select under 'Outgoing mail' - 'Signatures', and select box 'Add this variant of the default signature upon message creation'.

[quote user="bfluet"]I don't know anything about SEZNAM but it know when retrieving message from GMAIL via POP3 you can configure GMAIL to archive retrieved messages.  If SEZNAM isn't configured as such or that isn't an option then I believe the only way to do it is to bounce (forward without editing) all of the messages to your SEZNAM account.[/quote]

Sounds to me that IMAP would be an option here, if possible ...

I use Opera, but I do not the M2 Opera mail client; I do not even have it active nor its menus.

You will need to copy the individual messages from a Pegasus folder to the Unix mailbox folder.

I suggest trying just a few messages at first to ensure that Opera does import the messages correctly. Once correct operation is confirmed, do one Pegasus folder at a time; Select All messages and use the Copy* button.
You may use more that one Unix mailbox folder, although multiple .MBX and .PMG file pairs may be confusing to import to Opera.

*Use Copy to ensure that no data is lost until the import confirmed successful.

[quote user="bfluet"]The hierarch.om file contains entries for each folder listed in the folder window.  A directory attached as a mailbox has an entry that looks like this:

0,0,"KLY2EVRG:2CB3:FOL01D7F","71D72317:c:\\temp\\testmail","testmail"

You can see how changing the directory name or location would make the entry invalid. [/quote]

Just for the reference of anyone later who might come along reading this thread seeking information, I think that is like an entry for a folder in an external Mail Box not an entry for the external Mail Box itself. This is what a Mail Box entry looks like:

0,0,"01131047:G:\\PMBoxOldMail:NEW","01131047:G:\\PMBoxOldMail",Name_Unavailable

This is what a tray looks like.

1,2,"15921048:People","01131047:G:\\PMBoxOldMail","People"

An external Mail Box entry seems like it will stick around in the hierarch.pm file forever, even if it is obsolete. There apparently is no way to ever get rid of it or change it once it has been created. Folder entries and tray entries may be eliminated from the hierach.pm file when they are removed within Pegasus.

Hello,

I just have an outbound message to be send in the mail queue.

When I close PMail before sending I am asked how to continue:
- exit without sending
- sending, then exit
- cancel exit, return.

The dedicated button is labeled "Continue", the default choice is "Exit without sending".

Surprise:
Closing this message box by clicking the red cross button of the window doesn't mean "Cancel". It seems to have the same effect like clicking button "Continue".

Best regards
Wolfgang

[quote user="bfluet"]

Unticking the "Turn off attachment preview by default in the attachment view " setting located in Tools > Options > Incoming mail > Message reader will enable attachment preview by default. 

[/quote]

That feature was ticked before I had the Subject problem.  When Unclicked & Reclicked, the Subject problem continues.  For me to view Alternate message formats, I have to manually toggle the Preview button.

[quote user="bfluet"]

Note that it has recently been discovered that the attachment preview mode is causing some problems.  Some folks have experienced the inability to open attachments with a double click and others are unable to save attachments when preview is on.  These problems do not appear to be widespread and appear to be file specific.  Leaving attachment preview mode off by default and using the Preview button as needed might the the best way to go.

 [/quote]

Would that the Preview button would stay in the 'No preview' mode.  In my setup it did until recently.

That was it! I'd never encountered the "hide the taskbar icon" before with any of the other users!!

I suppose that's why the "Mailbox locked dialog" always showed up when I restarted for this user....it was already running.

(I'm surprised it didn't show as a running application in Windows Task Manager!!??)

THANKS!!!!!!

 

[quote user="bfluet"]

Perhap Pegasus remain running but both the taskbar entry and the tray icon are hidden.  Unhide any hidden tray icons to see if Pegasus is there. 

Another way to determine if Pegasus is running is

to open Task Manager and look for a running process named winpm-32.exe.

If Pegasus is running but is not in the taskbar you may have it configured to hide the taskbar item.  Check the settings in Tools > Options> User interface > Reporting/logging.

There was a timeout after 30 seconds here but you have 90 seconds set in the POP3 timeout according to the session log.  I would try increasing it to something like 180 seconds anyway to see if this help, If this does not help you may have a packet fragmentation problem.

Not sure but apparently is related to this system since it does not happen on the other system.  What is anything is running between Pegasus Mail and the host?  Anti-virus software?  Firewall? Other?

Hello all,  please disregard this post as it turns out that Pegasus Mail was not the problem.  My ISP ( Shaw ) recently "upgraded" there email service and, without my knowledged, changed the message settings on one of my accounts, but only one of the 3 that I use, not sure why only the one, but don't really care.  I found the problem and that's what matters.

These particular authentication settings are located in the Security tab of you SMTP host configuration (Tools > Internet Options > Sending (SMTP) tab.

I would think that you would not be able to send any mail if your authentication was not working so you may need to confirm that it is configured correctly then follow up with your ISP for additional recommendations.

Keep in mind that the POP3 and SMTP hosts used are identity specific so if you have configured multiple hosts and use multiple identities be sure that all identities are using the correctly configured hosts.

 Preserve deleted messages until Pegasus Mail closes was not checked. 

That was the problem. Now that I've check that box the Deleted folder & filter work as I had expected.

Thanks so much.

[quote user="DavidTC44"]I still have the problems with POP3.  I do have the settings that you suggest,"Load Windows Internet Services" is set to "Always".[/quote]

It wasn't meant to fix the POP3 issue (I have no idea what might be causing it), it would only help resolving performance issues. BTW: Creating a new thread with an appropriate subject might help in attracting additional forum members ...

and this has been discussed a lot in the past. There are a number of security problems with saving what might be a virus or worm to a specific directory automatically that could easily be activated inadvertently. I doubt very seriously if this would ever be implemented in Pegasus Mail

I rename the destination directory to nonstandard.   I was told at the time it was sufficient.  ?
