Hi Zonshire Jr. , i am much happy to see you in this community and i am also new and want to be more in this software and will keep myself upate with the new releases without any bug,

Great piece of solution,

 Regards,

Julia 

Use ONE asterisk; as a regular expression.

And if it contains this...
*
[x] This string is a regular expression

The AV was the problem!!! I finally discovered that the system was set up to not only quaratine some files but to delete them!!!! and whenever I started pmail it picked out the new files that had not been scanned and found OK and that's where my mails went!!! What a pain.

Thanks again for all the suggestions and help. I used an undelete on the stick and was able to recover a big part of the CNM files and after re-setting AV to exclude the pmail program and data files (I know not clever but practical) I was able to get my mails back online. 

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

I think this is quite a serious problem. Other email clients, like Thunderbird,  load much faster. I've always much preferred Pegasus, but it will be a pity if the slow loading problem can't be sorted.

Thats one of the joy's of using Pegasus Mail; you struggle with a problem, put out a request for help, and in two shakes of a ducks tail somebody you've never met produces a solution which works just fine.

Many thanks for the quick response.

ROAM tells Pegasus to ignore the driveletter. But the used directorystructure has to be the same.

So - if you copy your backup to the same directory(s) than on your stick, it should do as exspected - in theory. Test it.

Thanks for clarification. Now I get it.  Hopefully, in next release, this feature will be combined.

Best to you.

The next release is to be in new v5 series and that will use a different spelling checker and probably different controls too. I would not expect any further changes to existing spell checker or to the v4.63 in any way.  Work is already in progress toward v5x functions and interface. Note what author said in the v4.63 announcement.

As far as I can tell, comments in parentheses have always been allowed in the Date: field.  One of the things that 5322 did to 'clean it up' was to limit comments to the end of the date - which this format shows.

IMHO, over the years the rfc authors have made a complete mess of specifying these header fields (like Date:), and this is what we've ended up with!

That happens with which version of Pegasus?

Do you have several identities? Did you open the stationary with another identity than created? Is the amount of characters per line for wrapping the same in every identity?

Uuups indeed! I had no idea.

Thanks for the info Jerry and Olaf. 

And Thanks again for the help Michael.

Thanks for that - I had forgotten about the toolbar icon on the right-hand end!

I have exactly the same problem on a Windows7 64 bit machine (first line missing from copy to self). The mail doesn't actually have to be sent, just queued to be sent.

I don't have AVG, I use Microsoft Security Essentials. I disabled real-time protection and it didn't help. Any suggestions appreciated. 

(Later) I just looked through my copy to self folder, and the problem began in September 2011, about the time Pegasus 4.62 came out . I'm on 4.63 now.

I suggest you look into the possible use of Unipad software (

 )  which allows multiple charsets because it uses Unicode to prepare text. Maybe the resulting mixed text file can be inserted into a Pegasus Mail message body, or at least it could be attached.  The receiving user would then need to be using one of the Microsoft Unicode fonts such as Arial Unicode MS, as Pegasus Mail does not yet support full Unicode but only Utf-8 the Asian text might be a problem. 

As for the subject line and the sender's name, this is covered in the Mime RFCs and allows for 8 bit content. See RFC 2047 section "Encoded-word"  http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047  See pages 6-12  Not an easy read, but it works :-(

Hello anbecker,

[quote user="anbecker"]Indeed, this is somehow confusing since it interferes with the hot keys. I really liked the old icon, why this change?[/quote]

the hot key informations seem to be only exist in German (or maybe non-English?) versions (checked with PM 4.51 and 4.63). The English versions were both free of this addition.

Ok, the attachment information for outgoing mails is more consolidated this new way. But to be consistent it would be necessary to inform about incoming attachments the same way. (Maybe scheduled for PM 5.x?)

Best regards
Wolfgang

Thanks for considering my problem. The cause of the problem turned out to be rather prosaic. The Options window for the problematic user had a reduced size. As such it did not show the controls at the bottom, in particular the OK button. And without OK no change... For the other user Options did show the controls, as I finally noticed.

Wow! I just fixed it! 

Looked at my previous posting here, and it was so similar that I checked the anti-virus program, AVAST and turned off the check outgoing mail. For some reason it was blocking it.

thanks for keeping me calm!

Shame you can't help me with my personal memory issues too [:)] lol 

thanks, Martin, that was the perfect solution!

Two settings to check. In Tools, Internet options, Receiving tab is one and the other is in Tools Options, General, Basic check the block to open new mail on startup. Also check the item in Internet Options, receiving tab, and set a Polling time value (180 would yield check every 3 minutes) and then check the block Idle if only when no activity in progress (no keyboard activity) or leave unchecked if strictly timed check if even while using Reader or Editor.

Are there any other files in Pmail that I should worry about send over to Win 7?

[/quote]

Not in the mailbox. But if you wish you can examine the mailbox contents on a file by file basis using Han van den Bogaerde's guide .

If program and Mailboxes are there, leave it on drive D: and if Win7 is installed, call setpmdefaults.exe (if not there, you have an old version of Pegasus and you have to do it in another way - in case ask back) in programdirectory of pegasus. Than create a desktopicon for winpm-32.exe and call Pegasus by doubleclicking it.
