[quote user="Victoria-nola"]Is there any way to get mailboxes to automatically open once you've collected mail and the emails have filtered new mail into the mailboxes?    I haven't been able to find information on this either in the help or here on this site. [/quote]

Not that I'm aware of.

Not sure if you know that you can get the mail folder font to change colour, so that can easily see which mail folders have new mail.

Go to Tools / Options and look under Incoming Mail / Folder behaviours. Set the colour for recent unread mail.

Cheers

Distribution lists are *.pml files and may be in your home mail box location or may also be in the programs location (same as winpm-32) if they are system wide ones. They are single files and text based and can be opened with Notepad. Copy from old system to the thumb drive and place in your home mail box location there.

Hi Jerry:

 

Thanks - that worked.  The new machine is Win 7, so had a bit of a search to figure out where things were - and on this machine (XP) the *.pmr files didn't show up at all in explorer but did show up when I used the search option.  I just find that strange.  But it worked - transferred them to the thumb drive and then offloaded them to the new program and machine.

Thanks again

[quote user="Wnderer"]I'm currently using version 4.41 and I'm happy with it. Is there any compelling reason I should update to a newer version?[/quote]

According to your above statement I don't see any, but if you want to update you should postpone it until 4.62 is released (should now be a matter of days only).

todd,

 By changing to white you and your recipients won't be able to see the quoted text in your replies (unless you're using another color for the message background). If it's your intention not to have quoted text in replies, you can accomplish that directly by un-checking "Include the text of the original message in the reply" in the dialog that appears after clicking the "Reply" button on the tool bar. The reply will use the original subject line prefixed by "Re:" and contain only the text that you type.

 Jim

Please disregard post.  I searched the database (which I should have done first) and fixed my problem. 

Thank you

Todd

Thank you very much.  Just wasn't worded in a way I understood it.

Rod

Thank you so much .

I actually finally find the line wrap last night so took care of that.

Thanks for the info on the unsent.  Was driving me crazy.  Looked all over the place for SOMETHING but just couldn't find it.

 

Again my thanks and be looking for me online as I'm sure I will be there until I learn.  Just switched from Thunderbird as the filtering just wasn't working. It's a known problem and Thunderbird isn't correcting the issue.  Hope Pegasus is a little better.

> Is there yet (or will there ever be?) any way to use auto-reply if you are not on mercury?

I assume that you are talking about something that lets people know you are gone like an out of office reply. There is (and probably will never be) no "Out of Office" capability with Pegasus Mail unless you are running with Mercury or Mercury/32.  You can use a new mail filter to send an out of office reply via a text message but then you would have to have WinPMail up and running all the time you are gone to process the mail and send the replies.

Normally an out of office message is setup at the server level and there are a number of ways this can be done.  Talk to the people that provide your POP3 account.

I've been running 4.62 since it came out, but haven't seen a reminder yet. How is the reminder implemented?

Thank you.

Cheers

What version of winpm-32 and what OS do you expect to be on the "guest" machines you intend to use the USB drive with?

Sett8hg up a thumb drive with latest version and win7 is what I am using for travel and using an  icon and command line including -roam 

If you can wait another day or two until 4.62 is released it is quite easy to install to an USB drive using the installer and pinting it to the drive and ..\pmail on the drive. I had done it with earlier versions and an XP machine at the time and never quite get ir right but now with latest versions and a Win7-64 machine it seems to be working fine and I did only one minor edit with PCONFIG running DosBox on my win7 portable.

It's good to know that deleting the attached e-mail lets you access the other attached files.

But that assumes that you know there are 'hidden' attachments in an email you received - a strong assumption at best.
