[quote user="irelam"]It now includes support for Internet Explorer "Send link by email"[/quote]

And "Send page by email", but you may need to run the very last version of again to get the menu entries enabled.

Just looked in the PDF manual (WinPMailManual-441.pdf) and found something on page 109, Chapter 11, starting the paragraph with the phrse...

"...Recovery of deleted space from folders..."

I (think I) understand what happens with a large number; with 24,000; and with zero.

What I don't really grasp at this time is a small number; e.g., 1,2,3...10 whatever.

I also see in that paragraph....

"...If the folder is very large,.. this process of compression may
become annoying or may take too long...."

Would that giant attachment I tried to send make that folder "very large" enough to cause the very problem I was having ?

If that was the case, then what's causing it now ?

Could I set the value to zero for normal use, then set it to "1" when I'm ready to leave the house for several hours ?

With very few exceptions (this being one of them) Pegasus is extremely good. I would really like to get this under control if possible

Can you please forward me a copy of the message that crashes on you in Fancy mode? Please send it to irelam@telus.net   The version of Bearhtml 4.6.3 should be able to handle all messages except for occasional home made s p a m.

Thank you

[quote user="popper"]What's the best way to completely uninstall PM including all traces in the registry?  That may work.[/quote]

Not necessary, you may install a new version along with a previous one and should be able to move contents after doing so, there are several posts on the forum providing details about moving mailboxes or restoring backups.

To send a word document you will have to attach it to the email.  I regularly send out word documents complete with pictures and don't have any problems.

I have been trying to set up an email account. I successfully put in

all the information, down load the email, send some mail and then log

off. Next time I start Pegasus, after sigining in (we have several users

using the Pegasus for email, the others have no problem) I am asked to

complete the configuration again! This has happened 4 times in a row

tonight. I cannot figure out why the configuration is disappearing after

I close the program for this one particular user.

 Windows Xp Pegasus mail 4.51

Looks like the pmail.ini file is not getting saved on exit.  Most likely there is either something wrong with this users access to his mailbox directory or PMail is crashing on closing.  Try and close out everything you can and delete the deleted messages folder so that at least these functions are not the problem.

Hi!

Has anybody found a solution for this? I have (almost) the same problem.

I'm running Pegasus Mail 4.62 on WinXP (but the same happened in previous versions).

The option 'Add this variant of the default signature...' in "Options--> Signature" works fine, but nothing happens when attaching a signature within the message editor. Both in plain text or formatted mails.

Any ideas? Is it a common problem or there is something system-specific?

Thanks, Julian

Gotcha.  Here's the fix:

1. Run pconfig
2. Select Standalone Configuration (assuming that's what you want)
3. Set Home mailbox: c:\users\username\pegasus   *** No slash at the end of the path ***
4. Set New mailbox: c:\users\username\pegasus   *** No slash at the end of the path ***
5. Exit with save.

The path to my mailbox is in my user directory, but the part that was causing me all the grief was that there was a slash at the end of the Home and New mailbox paths.  So,

   c:\users\username\pegasus\

caused the problem.  Changing it to

   c:\users\username\pegasus

solved the problem.  So simple, yet so frustrating.

I assume you found the answer to the first question, if not simply click on help in Manage Local Users

To automatically run Pegassus for a specific user, add -I username to the shortcut

(thats a capital i)

AVG V10 can be obtained from: http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free  Please note that the install time is quite long as yet more features have been packaged with the "free" version.

  Virscan.ini needs to be updated to use this new version of AVG

The Virscan.ini CMDLINE= line should be changed from AVG9 to AVG10 so that the new Cmdline looks like:

; For AVG V10 scanner something like:
CmdLine=c:\progra~1\avg\avg10\Avgscanx.exe /SCAN "!f"

> Thanks for your reply, is this a limitation of pegasus or the IMAP protocol ?

Depends a lot both on the server and the client.  Some servers support more options that others, some clients store a lot more data at the client system.  If you were to cache all of the IMAP4 data via Pegasus Mail then it would be able to search the cache without even being connected to the host.

I my case I find the Squirrelmail gets really slow when the folders get large with most IMAP4 servers, maybe Dovecot is more efficient with server side searching than the UW type IMAP4 servers.
