Thanks.

 I understand / understood ALL of that. I am asking how to ensure that mailto NEVER opens Pmail  on-line. So far I can accomplish that with multiple registry mods.

T. McGuire

I have found the directory it was in and doubleclicked the icon but it

has started as a new service. I tried saving all my old e-mails but

pegasus won't open them, nor will notepad. I am really desparate to

find a way to export all my old e-mails so I don't lose them.

More info needed.  What exactly did you do. 

1.  What do you get for the program, home and new mail directory on the old system when you use Help | About Pegasus mail | Info?

2.  Is the directory path the same on the new system?

3.  When you run pconfig.exe from the directory containing the pmail program on the new system does the Standalone home and new mail directory match the current location?

Thank you for this info, mine just does not do anythingy, it will remain where the find was started.

 Greenman sent me a link for updates to nVidia Drivers and just found that a couple of days ago.  Downloaded that update yesterday and installed it last night/w a reboot.  Still did the same thingy with the find function.  Just did a find after booting up today, just about 2 hours ago, and there was a Shield in my off button, usually a sign there was an update needing a reboot.  So I did . . . and there were several installs done and another reboot needed . . again . . after this last restart a box came up telling me nVidia was ready to be used.  I opened Pegasus and did a TEST find in one of my e-mail and it worked as should, searched for other words and it worked again.  Must have been the nVidia was a problem.  I will also test it on the message I first noticed this problem and report back later.

 P.S. It is now later and all seems to be working just fine now, must have been in the nVidia software and has been cleared by that update I received last August and just missed it.  Now I will read my mail more carefully.

 Thank you "Greenman" and may I apologize for this late find and to you "PaulW" for your input as well,

Got it thanks.  will get back to you later

Does it work at all with IMAP?

Yes and no.  You can Autofilter to a IMAP folder; the new mail filtering though does not work with the IMAP INBOX only the new mail folder.

So, I see what you mean, there has been no attempt to access the server on XP!

I switched off the windows firewall on XP and still no joy.  Don't have any other protection other than my Firewalled router but that can't be the problem as both machines use it AND it also fails on a public machine at the local leisure centre.  Only things in common are that they are both XP machines and both on a wireless link?

Yes it is the same VPN client, the only one allowed by NHS mail, you'd really think it was a secret Governent operation..oh wait a minute it is :)  But, same client and there are no configurations allowed just my login name and password.  It's a client by Whale Communications.

This is not desperate as I can access the same account using Internet Explorer web mail (Imagine thinking that was more secure than Pegasus!!)  So this is because I would prefer to use Pegasus than webmail.

Looks as if I'm stuck  :(

Thanks for your time though :)) 

Steffan,

 This was just an added comment in a post I had made about the HELP file.  Had made this suggestion to Mr. Harris before and his comment was, " Done" and in this version it is NOT done so maybe I should take it back to the other area for suggestions. 

 Thank you for reading and making that comment,

Believe me, whatever it is, it's for sure not coming from Pegasus Mail. And SmartUI is definetely not a standard Windoes component either. It may be simply coincidence that it now happens with the latest version of Pegasus Mail.

Hi from Argentina. Sorry for my english.

Since a few days I have some problems with my accounts configurations. I have configured the pop3 and smtp fine, but when I change the user or close Pegasus, when I come back the pop3 and smtp configuration changed. Instead pop3.feim.org.ar appear 127.0.0.1.

I disable the firewall and antivirus, but the problem persist.

Any idea? Thanks,

Leonardo

Does your ISP require to have specific software installed to be able to use mail. 127.0.0.1 means (mostly) connect to a program running on the local computer.

Hi,

I did a fresh install of PMail 4.51 and now searching for a way to retrieve my previous settings, address book and mail folders of 4.41 installment. I did a back-up of my files but for some reasons didn’t want to upgrade, just a fresh install. Is there any way to circumvent the auto upgrade wizard? In other word I need a way to manually upgrade from 4.41. Can someone help?

Thanks in Advance.

[/quote]

Your mail from the 4.41 version is stored in a directory on disk. This is called the Home Mailbox location. Your 4.51 version points to another directory to use.

If you want to use the old (4.41) Home mailbox in the 4.51 version:

1. find that home mailbox location on your harddisk (by default c:\pmail\mail)

2. close down the Pegasus Mail program(s)

3. Delete the file pmail.cfg in the 4.51 program directory

4. Restart pergaus mail and on startup enter the path to the 4.41 Home mailbox.

5. To get your mail from the 4.51 merged, go Folders -> Add mailbox to list and enter the path to the 4.51 Home mailbox. That will be added to your folders listing, so you can drag/drop the mail from there into the 4.1 folders.

That's always the way Pegasus has worked. It's a remnant of times when disk space was limited and expensive!

In order to save a copy of attachments, the easiest thing to do is to put yourself on the BCC list.

Hope this helps.

I installed fresh copy of 4.51, imported my principal mailbox files, and "Find text" now works, but not on extremely large mailboxes.  I will have to do more housekeeping.

Thanks!

C.

Great advice! Searching this very question. Thanks a ton. This community is so helpful.

I followed all the responses that had come in, and now it appears that using all of the answers, the problem has been solved.

I do appreciate all of the respoonses.  It worked.  Now I need to get rid of my second version which I installed to send attachments. 

[quote user="Thomas R. Stephenson"]

It will open but in the case of a memory stick the drive letter must match the drive letter used when creating the original added mailbox.  The hierarch.pm used the drive letter of this mailbox.

2,1,"44904505:x:\\donna","","Donna"

 [/quote]

I really can't get it to work that way, even though my stick always has the same drive letter (B:) . Every time I close and re-open Pegasus, I have to go to Folders | Add mailbox to list to view the added mailbox, whereas if I create a Public folder, it'll show every time I open Pegasus, regardless of whether or not I've plugged in the memory stick. (Of course, I'm only talking about the Public folder tree here, not about any actual mail folders inside it.) However, I don't mind really, as the Public folder option works just fine for me.

If you encounter crashes with Pegasus Mail version 4.51 you should first check whether any of the following conditions is met:

1. Pegasus Mail crashes immediately on start-up, possibly accompanied by a message indicating a library called IConv.dll to fail because of an illegal instruction: This is caused by trying to load the library on a machine not being equipped with a compatible CPU (but it's not only affecting Intel processors!). To fix this issue download the plain Pentium compatible version from the download section and copy it into Pegasus Mail's installation directory replacing the existing version delivered with the Pegasus Mail setup.
2. Pegasus Mail crashes randomly within a couple of minutes after launching it with or without any user activities involved; it may also lack the Spamhalter ... menu item in the Tools | Spam and content controls submenu: This is caused by Spamhalter failing to load its existing database to be found in a file called words4.db3 located in the active user's mailbox directory. To fix this issue you may simply remove the existing database file - a new, empty one will be created automatically when restarting Pegasus Mail. The downside of doing this is that Spamhalter needs to be trained again ...
3. Pegasus Mail crashes when replying to a formatted message quoting the original HTML text and using a formatted signature containing an image which is added on message creation: While some details of the description may vary the common cause is the formatted signature containing an image link. Pegasus Mail stops crashing if the image data are directly inserted into the signature by copying (from an image viewer) and pasting (Ctrl + V) the image into the signature instead of only linking to the image file via the respective toolbar button of the signature editor. You may use my conversion tool for converting existing signature files into the proper format.

If none of these conditions is met you may need to provide more details about how to duplicate your crash and a crash dump which can be created by using my MiniDump extension to be downloaded and installed either for XP or later systems or previous ones. The announcement post provides some more details about this extension.

[Thanks to all those of you helping to compile this information by testing and reporting!]

Hi Thomas,

 When I use Pegasus on the server computer (the one that has mercury on it also), I have 50+ emails in my inbox. I also have 40+ emails that I have copied to myself. When I run Pegasus on the laptop, the inbox only has one message in it (the default message that comes with the program), but everything I have copied to myself appears in the correct mailbox (on the laptop). I do not know for certain, but I am wondering if I installed Pegasus in the stand alone configuration, and need to reinstall it on the server. If this is necessary, none of the emails in the inbox are critcal, and it is ok if I lose them.

Thanks,

Russ

Is there a way to force Pegasus to "see" these?

Thank you Sir.
