Hi!
Probably this is described already
, but ...
So far we did use Pegasus with Novell NetWare (NDS mode). Now we have plans to setup mail system little bit differently and not rely on NDS mode. So, my plan is to install Pegasus (4.6.1) locally on every computer and user run it from there (using POP3 etc.), but they don't (and will not) have admin privileges, so. there is no option to save/update cfg-file in initial Pegasus dir. Also, is somehow possible to avoid this first dialog about mailbox location? I mean, lets after starting Pegasus create it by default under user profile? So, I mean, is there a option to automate Pegasus mailbox etc. conf?
More thanks, Alar.

AFAIK the problem of running PM in a Netware environment is that it automaticaly detects Netware (PM on the server or on the computer gives the same result.

The solution is to add -A to the target in the shortcut options, this forces PM to ignore Netware connections.

For example, when Pmail.cfg could accept and use %USERPROFILE% in

mailbox location path ... wonderful! =)

Unfortunatly it's not possible. The solution I use is to create users and their PM parameters via script. I've a template folder of a PM user, when I create a user I add his/her name to pmail.usr, I create his/her folder in the hierarchy, in the folder I've a pmail.ini file containing variables in place of the definitive value and change them via script (ie $user is replaced by the username etc) then I apply the correct ntfs rights.

You should also have only one installation of PM on the server (network installation) and put a shortcut to it on the shared desktop. Easier to do and to maintain.

Regards

[quote user="fraeulein"]Hi, my PM version 4.61 moves all sent messages in the folder Papierkorb (Trash) and copies of sent messages disappear at all allthough they should be saved in Ausgangskopien (copies of send messages). Does anybody have a solution? I use IMAP. Conny [/quote]

I don't think I understand, can you please post to the (sent messages don't go out to the recipient or queue?)? Maybe you just need to check your settings on Extras => Einstellungen => Ausgangskopien and Extras => IMAP Profile => [Ausgewähltes Profil öffnen] => Einstellungen?

[quote user="mapmap"]So I thought maybe I need to reindex the New Mail folder - I can't seem to be able to reindex the New Mail folder - no option to do this[/quote]

The new mail "folder" isn't a folder like the other ones, it's just a collection of new mail files, hence there's no index file which can be fixed in any way. And as your further attempts show that wouldn't have helped anyway as the problem appears to be inside the message(s).

[quote user="mapmap"]Then tried to open one of the mail items in this new Folder - 4.61 crashes[/quote]

If you can identify specific messages causing the crash (HTML formatted messages, BTW?) we would like to get them as unmodified as possible, preferably as zipped CNM files from your new mail directory (path shown on Help => About Pegasus Mail = Info as New mailbox location). As you may need to move or copy these messages (or a single one) back to the new mail folder please note that you can select a message via right mouse click to avoid being opened in preview mode for safely deleting it if you need to do this in PM 4.61. Right-clicking a message (in the new mail folder) and selecting Message properties will display the CNM filename of the message, BTW. Please send your report to beta-reports[at]pmail.gen.nz.

Thomas,

 

Sorry, to bother you about this.  It was my ignorance that caused this.  In my older version of Pegasus I remember that I was able to d-click on the attachment filename and it would open, so that's what I tried.  You quickly responded by telling me about the 'open' button, which works just fine.

 Thank you very much for your help.

[quote user="Christopher Muñoz"]Also, when I try to About / Update S/MIME, it returns "Cannot read Internet data" - ??[/quote]

This is because the website for providing this information doesn't exist since I never set it up in the first place: The S/MIME extension isn't really suitable for broader public consumption since it's only poorly supported by Pegasus Mail itself and requires the smarter kind of people for dealing with its shortcomings.

[quote user="Christopher Muñoz"]I'll send you a couple of the misbehaving email messages, so that you can have a look, whether or not there's a remedy.  

How do you want me to get them out to you? [/quote]

Preferably zipped CNM files from the new mail directory, IERenderer's About dialog provides a link for contacting me.

BTW: It could also be a CSS (style) attribute causing this: white-space:nowrap.

No.

Huh?  When the folders are open under the top level menu "Messages" there the a menu Quick copy/move and a sub menu to edit the quick move functions.

> There's a nice menu bar displayed in the help files that looks like what I'm looking for. Is this something that will only appear in v5?

Not at all.

 Hello Phil,

 [quote user="Phil"]

You can also use the pmuser ev (provided that PM and Windows use the same user names).

[/quote]

many thanks for the information.

Is there any place where the use of environment variables for PMail is documented? My search in Help and Manual wasn't successfully.

But at least I found this : -)

Best regards
Wolfgang

Very good idea. To bad this feature is not tie to the Identities.

I could of clone my main Identity with only that difference (frequent check)

Wait a second, it still can be done, I will both clone my ID and the IMAP profiles.

The "OFFLINE" ID will use the IMAP clones with the "Periodically update the INBOX" off.

Flipping ID's is much more user friendly.

Thanks a lot, your recommendation lead to a great workaround.

BTW - Do you think trying to poll IMAP profiles during OFFLINE qualifies as a bug?
