I use it but with Pegasus installed on a 32 bit system, over the network.

However: Pconfig.exe will not work with a 64 bit system. Otherwise it works fine.

 My ISP has a limit of sending a max of 25 emails at a time.

 My distribution list has about 60 emails in it. 

 I could split the DL into 3 lists to overcome the issue.

Another approach: Set up a Gmail account configured to add a custom 'From' address,

Gmail has a daily SMTP linit of 100 messages.

Thanks - I see that note now. As some messages had retained their new subjects I guess they were the ones I modified while they were still in New Mail. Now I know.

Go to Tools | Internet options | (Receiving)POP3 , edit the POP3 setup and check the POP3 settings to ensure that you are deleting the mail once downloaded

Delete mail from host once it has been successfully retrieved
  If you check this box, Pegasus Mail will delete the host's copy of each mail message it successfully downloads, which will prevent it from being presented to you again the next time you retrieve mail. Leaving this box unchecked tells Pegasus Mail to leave the mail on the host even if successfully downloaded. Mail left on the server will be retrieved every time you download mail.  

If this is checked the download may not be completing successfully and the POp3 account is resetting. Turn on session logging in Tools | Internet options | General and then look at the resulting file.  

You might also try using the File | Selective mail download to manually delete the mail after downloading.

Thanks!  stunnel works for me, both in Ubuntu hardy and eeepc default Xandros.  I had hesitated to try it because i didn't understand what it does, and thought it would need to be installed on the mail server.  but that was incorrect; i didn;t need to change anything on the server.   I tried the Linux version sof stunnel on both platforms, and couldn't get them to work with pmail.  But I installed the Windows version of stunnel under wine, configured pmail SMTP to send to 127.0.0.1 and the stunnel input port,  edited the stunnel.conf according to the message quoted above, and commented out the stunnel.conf line for a "key" file.  Run stunnel, then pmail, and it works.


I haven't tried ASSP -- it looks interesting, but more than I need right now.

Well, I don't see a convincing reason for your problems with this message, it displays without any issues, and I don't see the (programmatic) link to sending attachments either. I know this is an annoying task, but can you still duplicate this behaviour? Does this message have to stay at a certain position? Do you use preview mode? Do you usually do a POP3 before triggering SMTP delivery? Do you have remote image auto-download (for HTML messages) enabled? Would setting Load Windows Internet services ... to Always (on Tools => Options => Advanced settings) make a difference? Although it might look a little bit over-investigative there must be a reason for this which might cause more weird future issues (one of them might be described in ), hence my request ...

Indeed the folders are sorted alphabetically and I am happy with that; the problem is the position of the mailboxes in the list. Before the crash, I had my IMAP mailboxes at the top of the list and a local store of folders beneath that; now the order is reversed and I need to scroll down to access the mailboxes that are used most frequently -- not a big deal for a small number of items in a list but in my case there are large numbers of folders and many IMAP accounts which over time means a lot of unnecessary wrist action -- ordering for me is quite important.

What happens exactly when you send Mails over SMTP (push the send button) during the time when Pmail automatic checks identities over POP3 for new mails and some programm parts are frozen / not correct at work. Is there no possibility that during this situation the process of converting the mail in the send format can cause a problem.

Thanks for the suggestion, I tried it and moved the three  WINPM**.PM files to the new netbook.  They now show up in the "MAIL" folder on the netbook, but when I start do a new email and look at the "Recently Used" list for an address, none of the addresses I thought I moved over are there.  What did I do wrong?

The files need to go in the same folder as all of your mail and addressbooks. In most Pegasus installations this will not be the Mail folder. You should find that the Mail folder has subfolders - one for each user of that installation of Pegasus. The default setup creates only one, called "Admin". Try moving the FUA file there.

Thanks for your reply, sorry for the delay in answering, I live in a remote Spanish mountain village and have been without phone lines for several days, still can't have everything I suppose.

I don't know whether this serves your purpose but you can queue your messages before sending them. Go to Tools | Internet options | Sending (SMTP) and make sure that the option of Sending mail immediately without placing in queue is not ticked.

Cheers!

I have the same problem with 4.52. I right-click on the message, select "Show pictures (HTML only)" and  gray boxes appear where the graphics should be. I have tried all of the various settings under options. Have had to revert back to 4.41 as this does not happen in that version. Using Windows XP.

Hmm. I always re-read my postings for vanity's sake. I'm so self-obsessed. I am. Me. I'm the one who's obsessed with me. I scare me.

Thanks guys. I posted before seeing your replies.

 

I installed a clean copy of 4.52 in a new directory and just copied over the folder with all the data in it. Everything seems to be there. Meantime, the 4.41 installation to which I installed the 4.52 version seems to have swallowed its pride and is also running as it should. No data has been lost and nobody is asking me for user names anymore. 

I think the problem may have been with my ISP. I have four machines running here all with Pegasus and the same ISP. The other three were running fine all along while this one got hung up with the 2745 error.

Excuse me, see there you are not the only one with this affliction, not understanding what is posted.  I did read that and remember doing it, just did not sink in to my thick head.  I am now investigating those links for more Help.

Again I thank you,
