Thanks for that I have deleted the file.  I did check and it did not appear to be read only.  I only had the one auto filter set up and that was the one I tried to turn off.  I noted that it was still autofiltering up to yesterday.

pmr= ..\lists

pml= ..\lists

happily takes me from programs, up one and down into the lists folder. Now it is independent of the drive letter. I should have thought of trying this first! Anyway, this forum entry might help someone else trying to get books and lists to roam.

Thanks for the help.

Seems to have been an authorization problem and working now

 I had a Verizon Tech in this afternoon on another internet service problem

and I think something was tinkered with.

Many thanks to anyone that looked at my problem

maybe make a sticky out of this problem, there is also another recent thread (http://community.pmail.com/forums/thread/23907.aspx) with this issue. I also experienced the same when my smtp server refused a large message.

Are you using list mode or preview mode for your mail folders? If you're using preview mode, check that 'Mark previewed messages as having been read' is unchecked. Hope this helps.

Cheers!

Thanks, Steffan.  It's a special Pmail config just for reading emails from a collection of forums.   And I want to stick with the previewer.  It's actually OK.  In my tests, My tests involved only **one** email so as soon as I clicked the folder, the test email appeared in the previewer and was marked as read.  If there are more emails that had been routed to that folder they are not marked as read.  It's working as desired.

Many thanks, it worked with F12.

[quote user="beezlebug"] i've got a problem with opening eMails. Some eMails (it seems that the problem only occurs with HTML mails) can't be opened by doubleclick. Marking the mail and hitting Enter is working fine. Any ideas?[/quote]

Known problem, no fix: This is caused by Pegasus Mail not waiting for the so-called "doubleclicktime" to pass before rendering an email - and HTML rendering (as well as decrypting or verifying digital signatures) takes significantly longer than plain text rendering ... sorry ...

Phons,Thank you!

is it possible to set a default dir for 'Import Picture', which always

opens?

 No but you might set the shortcut startup directory to your location and this should be the first thing opened.

 

That's since PM44 or so on ...

 Go to addressbook -> addressbook properties -> Options for all addressbooks and deselect something like 'Insert E-Mail-address instead Alias'

(sorry ... having german Pegasus).
 

so long    Olaf

When creating a new identity, the new identity is based on the default one, including all general and internet settings.[/quote]

And the email address of such an identity can be changed at Tools => Internet options => General. After doing so you can select the identity (and thereby email address) in the email editor (either on the Special tab or the Message tab depending on you selection of Add identity selector at Tools => Options => Messages and replies - or on the main toolbar or in the Reply or Forward dialogs.

[quote user="Vincent Fatica"]The subjects of emails showing in my folders are truncated at 35 characters (or thereabouts).  Can I change that?[/quote]

No, this is a "hard coded" limit of the current folder system - David Harris is currently working on a new one which will fix this along with lots of other issues. The new mail "folder" isn't actually a folder, i.e. there's no index file where the (abbreviated) subject is taken from, instead the respective messages (each one in a separate file) are scanned in total whenever being opened.

Ah. I was just going through the list of unreplied posts and didn't see the duplicate.

Oh well. No harm done.  [:)]

[quote user="olapi"]I would like to transfer my old mails from my old computer to the new, but how?[/quote]

[quote user="idw"]See .[/quote]

[quote user="olapi"]Well yeah. I didn't work for me. Probably because my old computer has Windows XP and my new has  Win 7 Home Premium....[/quote]

No, I've got the same configuration and it worked without any problems. But it didn't work for me isn't enough information for providing any further hints, can you please specify what you did and what doesn't work?

anyone any other ideas?  

Were you trying to logon with the same user id twice? Have you created and shared systemwide folders or noticeboards? Are the Pegasus files on your local hard disk or a mapped share to a server?

I have had similar problems and have been able to resolve the problem but is depends on your answers to the above. Post back.

and yes... it worked by changing the shortcut! Actually, I even prefer leaving my original identity as it is (a sort of safety exit), but do want to primarily use my second one. Thank you for your help Bob (and thank you Steffan... I'm also keeping your instructions for when I'll really need to leave my original identity .... I sound like some secret agent now ;)

This forum is great, and so is Pegasus

a good day to all

[quote user="Tbilisi"]I need to go from an old XP Professional machine to a new Windows 7 Professional computer.  I use Pegasus 4.51 under XP and have a lot of folders of archived e-mail messages.  How can I take all of these, plus my addressbook, to Pegasus 5.2 on my new machine?  Thank you very much.

Please read this .

A "Compact folders once 0  bytes are deleted" setting means to never compact.  The default setting is 24000 which I would recommend setting back to.

Right-click in the message text and choose 'Reformat long lines'.  (I find that works better than the alternative 'Wrap long lines'.)
