Thanks for that link, and your testing work.
The results page is certainly up to date.

What went wrong re:

[quote user="Thomas R. Stephenson"]

Not sure what you mean about out of date, I've both tested and listed the problems with Pegasus Mail.

[/quote]

 What happened was that I searched on google - scanned the 1st page and picked up a general vibe that info was out of date and that there were problems.
5th on the list was Wine HQ - Pegasus Mail 4.41

The version number didn't impact (maybe cos it was my version) but either way..... this was going to be the info I was looking for.
To be fair, the page looked very good - professional - tests from 2007 to 2009 plus a warning "The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine."

The reason I point this out, is that, one of googles 'results display' criteria, is clicks on a result ie to visit the page.

This means that pretty much everybody searching using "wine pegasus mail" will end up reading these old test results - because if they were reading the latest results, then that doc would be on the 1st google results page, and higher than the old results doc.

Which means that people are not realising that other test results exist.
They see PM has problems in Wine, and interest has waned - no more tests after 2009 (ah well, it was worth a try), and then bugger off

I honestly believe that you should contact winehq, and request that they modify the warning by inserting, ahead of it, something like "latest test results available here" with a link to the PM folder .

Here is the google search: "wine pegasus mail"

The problem was caused by IErenderer being enabled.

I disabled it and pasted into the program dir:  Bearhtml.dll 04/05/2011

It now appears as though I have a fully functional PM.

If I do a "select all" and then press delete, I can see it deleting them ONE AT A TIME.

[/quote]

I'm late to the party here, but the problem is that when you just "delete" messages (at least, with default settings), they get moved to the "deleted" folder, which takes about 1 second per message.  Another option is to "select all," and then hold down the Ctrl key while clicking on the Delete button (or pressing the delete key on your keyboard).  That bypasses the deleted mail folder and makes deletion of even a large number of messages almost instantaneous.

I suspect that the download is actually failing and the mail server is resetting the account.  Try downloading just this message using File | Selective mail download.  But before you do this increase the timeout setting in the Tools | Internet options | POP3 setup to something like 180 seconds. 

Thanks Brian for trying to help. Here I am in northern BC on a slow link and unable to even re-install as I would do at home. I checked all the things you suggested; the problem persists.

[quote user="bfluet"]I get the impression that a current download of v4.61 doesn't contain the current version of IERenderer (maybe not BearHTML either).  If so, anyone know if there a plan to remedy that or if they will be updated in v4.62? [/quote]

Brian, I already answered your question(s) ...

Seems to me that what you're trying to accomplish can't be done without creating and using identies. However, I have a sneaking suspicion that you're confusing users with identities. I recommend that you consult Pegasus help for identities. You'll probably find that they can do a lot of what you want to do, though perhaps not everything. If you want to receive all mails in one inbox and yet be able to reply from the address they were sent to, you may have to change identities manually, but all that takes is one click of the mouse. If, however, you can live with a variety of mail folders, you can set default identities for each of them. Hope this helps a little.

Cheers!

Dear Michael

Thank you once again.  You sorted out my last problem which was remarkably similar as regards solution.

Many thanks indeed.  I need to get a better (personal) memory.

Derek Jones

Same symptom, same cure.  Thank you Michael!

Cheers!

> Ok, confused by your response that the HOME & NEW should have the

same
> path but below you specify no path in the HOME location?  Which is

it?

When you have not split the HOME and NEW mail directory the entry for the home mail directory must be either blank (the best option) or matching the actual location os the HOME and NEW mail directory.  Entering a directory here is not a good idea unless you want to have the HOME and NEW mail directories split.

Keep in mind that new mail is not a real folder like the others. It is just a visual representation of the *.cnm files when doing pop3 or local delivery. The newly arrived messages are always added to the top and any with urgent marked on top of the others also. Once you resort or close and open new mail they are then sorted. The new mail in an IMAP mounted box depens on the inbox order on the server. Real folders, *.pmm and *pmi pairs are sorted according to preferences and those are sticky and when closed and opened remain the same as they were.

Hi and thanks!
ISO-8859-1 seems to set by default. I couldn't duplicate this problem on Windows XP. Something with html formatting.
More thanks, Alar.

[quote user="Pega"]Is this a matter of incompatability, or what? Please let me know![/quote]

Check first.

Hi Guy,

 Thank you very much for your hint. It worked (half the way). Yes, my own hierarchy of folders is expanded now. But not the hierarchy of shared imap folders. They are collapsed after every new start of pegasus mail.

One more hint?

With kind regards,

Alexander Reil

[quote user="vdhagen"]

A minor problem remains:  How can you get information about an IMC-folder if you don't know which (if any) IMAP profiles it belongs to?

[/quote]

My local IMAP directory structure:

   MailBox\IMC-3EA
   MailBox\IMC-3EB
   MailBox\IMC-3EC
   MailBox\IMC-3ED
   MailBox\IMC-3EE
   MailBox\IMC-3EF

Upon viewing the IMAP.PM file in a text editor I observe:

   Profile-ID: 1002 corresponds to MailBox\IMC-3EA
   Profile-ID: 1005 corresponds to MailBox\IMC-3ED
   Profile-ID: 1007 corresponds to MailBox\IMC-3EF

Perhaps you may make a similar observation.

The address and subject fields are not resizable in current 4.x series either in WinPMail or in the win OS of later versions.

The only visual change in size may be achieved by changing the display driver resolution and you might want to try 1024x768 or 800x600 if the system and monitor will allow that settings to be used. I have the same problem with my new machine with 1366x768 display.

Try using magnify which is a included in some later win OS versions.

HTML display may be increased by use of ctrl_  + pg up if using IERenderer of ctrl+> in BearHTML if size is not precoded in by the sender. If using the IERenderer it can be increased even if hard coded in the source so that may be a reason to use the IERenderer.

The OS settings for large font or 125% or 150% increase have no effect in WinPMail.

Great. Thanks.

[quote user="rdubbs"]However, when I tried to open an email with html content, Pegasus crashed (Win7 64, Home Premium).[/quote]

All known, see . An IERenderer update works around the bugs introduced with IE 9.

Hi i have a shortcut for Pegasus on the desktop and on the

start menu the one on the desktop will open PGM but crash straight away and the

one in the start menu works fine. (Did i mention that all shortcuts have all

the exact same command line instructions i.e. C:\PMAIL\Programs\winpm-32.exe

-roam -A) The only difference is that the one on the desktop was copied from

the desktop of a Vista 32 installation and they are both now in a Win7 64 bit installation??

Just thought it a bit curious a shortcut is a shortcut or so i thought. I’m

going to copy the one from the start menu and paste it to the desktop and see

what happens?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Updating and installing IErenderer has fixed this problem !! link to post that fixed this for me

Hi Guy

Thanks, that was all it needed. It works fine.
