Hi people,

I'm new here.

I just installed 4.61 and was wondering if there's a way to automatically include a business card graphic in each sig of a new message?

I tried it like this in the sigs but it didn't work:

Now works!!! Thanks!!!

I also had to check "Disable certificate validation"

[quote user="idw"][quote user="marius"]Ah, that is certainly a good way around it. Thank you very much for your swift reply![/quote]

If you update IERenderer to the the menu entries will be back.[/quote]

Sorry, it was supposed to fix this, but I had to fix it again, the next update will provide a working solution.

Hello.

Just started to configure Pegasus.

I made-up a few accounts I have.

But

in the left column there is none of the account names vsible.

When I want to write a message, 

- I see no possibility to select my snder-account. How do I select?

- the edit-form only displays TO, but no FROM. Where can I make visible the FROM line?

[quote user="David_himself"]Yes, this machine still has IE6.  (Maybe I should update to IE9 now.  I always resisted updating to IE7 because it was even worse than IE6 and ran the risk of messing up settings for QuickLaunch, default mailer and default browser.)[/quote]

IE 9 isn't available for XP, but I've been using IE 8 on my XP machine without any troubles - well, my default browser being Opera, of course ...

And: The "drop target" error is an IE 6 error returned by the different zoom handling it provides. BTW, here's ...:

This behavior is by design. The following OLECMDID values are not defined for use by the IWebBrowser2::ExecWB() method: [...]

Clearly something about drop targets, I guess ...

Every 4 years or so I join here to ask a Q or two. Have used Pegasus (4.52(WIn32) for 10 years+ and am a cyber-challenged old professor.

Recently I got error messages when I attempt to alphabetize Inbox and Pegasus closed, now when I Send and nothing mailed. Cannot Debug -- Pegasus closes .

Can I download Pegasus again and have all my folders saved? Or repair somehow.

Many thanks,

It must be.... yet it is not.  So in the interest of error checking, wouldn't it be better to take the date of the last "hop" shown in the header instead of some random date that it happens to show because some variable wasn't cleared from the last message in the list?  I've already asked the offending party (before I ever posted here) to clean up their headers because they are non-compliant.  That's the obvious part.  I was just hoping that PM could do a better job in the event of this error.  BTW, they (the company that was sending the emails with no date) never responded to my mail which is typical of dealing with big companies.

As to the header, here's the header.  Only thing really missing is "Date:".  I've blocked out some data to protect the innocent.  :)

Message body here.

My PC just updated IE 9 yesterday, thanks for posting the fix so fast.  I suspect you will hear more and more of this problem as the days go by....

According to this post, "The method of identification for all attachments depends on the settings in two files: FILETYPE.PM & MIME-MAP.PM ... The default files have not been updated for some time."

http://community.pmail.com/forums/post/20740.aspx

Does anyone have a set of patches to these 2 files, or updated versions incorporating patches?

In particular, the various OpenDocument file types and extensions (.odt, .odp, .ods, etc.) used by Openoffice, LibreOffice, etc. are not given the proper mime-type headers by Pegasus.

These file types are described e.g. here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument

Hopefully these will be updated in the next Pegasus release, but patches might be easy for someone knowledgeable to provide in the meantime.

The problem appeared to be related to WINSOCK.DLL in the list could apparently have been due to the Service Pack 3 installation, nothing to do with PM operation.  It seems the "problem" is known from a Google search and a number of solutions were offered mainly for installations of SP2.

Repair Windows XP TCP Network Settings With WinSock XP Fix Utility

From reading the pages the fact that I re-booted the machine may have reset the TCP/IP stack.  There is even a MS patch (KB884020) quoted for one version of the problem with SP2.   It seems the glitch was an operating system fault.

[quote user="Greenman"]Many thanks again for your help with this.[/quote]

Thanks for reporting back, just doing my job (I have to!) ... [;)]

Yes it must be in at least one other place.

 I have managed to reconfigure everything to how I want it. I deleted my main account and recreated it. Now it checks all three pop3 accounts that I want with no @paradise showing up. I do have a 2nd identity called gmail (and somewhere there is a file that must have the @paradise embedded in it) but I have left check all identities off.

So somehow the original account had other stuff in it that you don't have direct access to and the only way to remove it was delete it and recreate it. In the beginning I didn't recreate it but only changed the original.

[quote user="idw"]Well I'm sure some testing would have helped here since it's not a big deal to just create some empty trays and folders for testing?[/quote]

I get your point. However, some things that may not be "a big deal" to you may certainly be a big deal to others. Sorry for the confusion. Have a good day.

[quote user="Jerry Wise"]

Is this a recent install? Same machine? Recheck Tools, Options, General, Advanced and confirm that winsock loading is set to Always.

[/quote]

Seems to have sorted it. Thanks

Can you determine anything about the 4 that you have not been able to download? Have you tried File menu, selective download? What are the dates on these 4 messages?

I don't know why the 3 you have successfully downloaded have not been cleared. Can you do that via selective download?

 After that my next best suggestion is to run winpm-32 starting it with commanline with space -z 32 added to the end of your normal command line and I personally prefer to do that via the command prompt. There are GUI ways to do it also within Tools, Internet options etc.

With the session logged turned on *.wpm files will be written to you home/new mailbox location and you then go and view their contents using Notepad as they are  plain text files and show *all* of the conversation with the mail server *including password* so be careful with those files and before copy or save or sending to anybody delete the password from those files. The important diagnostic info is if messages are recognized and their msg id numbers and what if any action is taken. If downloaded the whole raw content will be shown in the *.wpm files so they get very large very fast.  Once downloads are done close winpm-32 and you can restart it when ready but using your normal comandline without the added -z switch.

When you are done with the *.wpm files I suggest delete of them.

[quote user="bstiefel"]Get notification that there is new mail 

but does not display in new mail folder unless program is closed and reopened[/quote]

Do you keep in your new mail folder? What happens if you reorder (such as clicking the Date/Time header twice) the existing messages after downloading new ones? Did you change anything else with your current Pegasus Mail installation?

[quote user="Thomas R. Stephenson"]> A

questionable standard, IMO, reminds me of the hungry mathematician

being left alone with a can of food and no tools in prison: "I define

this can to be open" ...

Not hardly, this was not defined in a vacuum.  Since this is the basic e-mail standard and has been like this forever, approved by everyone, I'm not all that sure I would question the standard. [...]

That said, many mailers leave out this field expecting it to be added by the SMTP host.  Most MSA do add this Date: header if missing, the latest Mercury does this.[/quote]

Well, it's just my opinion, and your latter note about SMTP hosts clearly indicates that it's circumvented anyway, so this standard appears to be worth exactly ... nothing ... ?

[quote user="msburko"] When I right click on a Public folder that option is not presented. Do Public Folders get compressed automatically? If so when?[/quote]

Public folders don't use a single database plus an index file, they simply consist of one file per message like the new mail folder: Deleting a messages deletes its file, so there's nothing left to compress ...

Thanks to Thomas, the problem has been resolved.

Turns out that it was a conflict with the NVidia nForce 780i chipset on my motherboard causing the problems.  When I disabled TCP checksum unloading, it began working - and with the 64-bit processor and OS, it updates quicker than ever!

[quote user="rocket"]Isn't 2.4.4.1 having some issues at the moment?[/quote]

So far there's only a single user encountering crashes (and only on closing Pegasus Mail) with this version and we still got to figure out what exactly causes them (which unfortunately doesn't seem to be an easy task, though). But anyway: XP users (which cannot install IE 9) don't have any urgent reasons for updating unless they encounter important other issues with using IERenderer and don't want to switch to BearHtml.
