Thomas:

 I have downloaded PMRestArch from the lexacorp site and will give this a try soon.  Unfortunately, there is a long list of home repairs for the weekend and I'm only 1/2 way through.  I'll report back with my success or failure.

 Appreciate your insights!

Paul

Does the 'limited account' user have read/write permissions to the directory where the mail is stored? Also sounds like the user does not have read rights.

Could be way off base, but it is something to check out.

Pagasus kept telling me it was still in version 4.41, although the update was reported as being succesful.

Looks like one or more of the files did not get updated.  My first thought is that the winpm-32.dat was not updated and the installer was not notified by the OS that the write to the file failed.  Try the install as the system admin or verify all files are closed during the update.

This is for GMail, the Hotmail is almost the same as (a) and (b)  but change the servers to pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com.  For Hotmail you need to turn off the certificate authentication since the Hotmail certificate is bad.

(a) -POP3-

  Server host name: pop.gmail.com
  User name: <your_user_name>@gmail.com
  Password: <your_password>
  Server TCP/IP port: 995
  SSL/TLS: via direct SSL connect
  Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: checked

(b) -SMTP STARTTLS -

  Server host name: smtp.gmail.com
  Server TCP/IP port: 587
  SSL/TLS: via STARTTLS
  Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: checked
  SMTP Authentication: Login to the SMTP server using POP3
  username/password (the GMAIL-POP3-definition has been chosen)

(c) - SMTP via SSL -

  Server host name: smtp.gmail.com
  Server TCP/IP port: 465
  SSL/TLS: via direct ssl connection
  Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: unchecked
  SMTP Authentication: Login to the SMTP server using POP3
  username/password (the GMAIL-POP3-definition has been chosen)

(d) - IMAP4 via SSL -

  Server host name: imap.gmail.com
  User name: <your_user_name>@gmail.com
  Password: <your_password>
  Server TCP/IP port: 993
  SSL/TLS: via direct SSL connect

Today I had a one in a million chance.Because all my account passwords of MS Outlook were lost.And next software-,used this chance.Moreover it made this action for free and I saw how utility help to retrieve current user password Outlook and restore access to your email account.

4.41 selective download of 69 headers worked fine.  4.51 crashed.

Help, please.

See a for details and a fix.

Thanks a lot for your answer. I'll try that and get back to the forum.

[quote user="TiggerMan"]

I have had this persistent problem for some time now.  I have checked all over these forums, and can't seem to find anyone else who has this issue.

Whenever I try to reply to a message that comes from Yahoo, no matter what I change my overall settings or reply settings to, I can't seem to get Pegasus to include the text of the original message in my reply.  It will include the headers and other information, but the message part is always blank/missing.

Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution?

You may try to select the message text (Ctrl + A) and use the "reply to selected portion" option which shows up after doing so.

[quote user="Tracy"]Just started using Pegasus and are finding PDF files are corrupted when it reaches the recipient....anyone else seen this?[/quote]

I remember once having problems with this as Pegasus Mail treated some PDFs as text files and corrupted their formatting by interpreting as line breaks which actually were some kind of binary data. The easiest workaround would be to manually select the encoding type at the bottom of the attachments tab after attaching the file: Basic MIME should do it. I believe there's also a way to configure Pegasus Mail to do this automatically but I can't figure it out right now.

 To ensure this your issue can you open such a (supposedly corrupted) message in raw view and look for the header line starting with Content-transfer-encoding: preceding the attachment section to see whether it uses BASE64. The whole header section of a PDF attachment should look similar to this one:

Content-type: Application/Octet-stream; name="Filename.pdf"; type=Unknown
Content-disposition: attachment; filename="Filename.pdf"
Content-transfer-encoding: BASE64

If it already does then there's probably nothing you can do and the above workaround doesn't fit, the problem might be located at the recipient's site. Can you open these PDFs ok on your machine?

Guys... Your THA bests ;-)

" mce_src="">hello,

I just got the following error after upgrading from 4.41  to 4.51 when I try to start the program. the startup-window's latest status is "restoring desktop layout ...", where it crashes

I am running pmail under NT4 on a socket-7 board gigabyte ga-5ax, K6-3-550 cpu.

I solved the problem with using the old iconv.dll from version 4.41

[quote user="Nighthawk"]I had that problem sending any email and I had to change my WinSock33.DLL to on demand and it fixed it [/quote]

Don't use On demand only with Pegasus Mail 4.61 anymore unless you have a very good reason to do so: Use Always instead (the new default in v4.61), otherwise you may encounter massive performance issues (Tools => Options => Advanced settings), there are already some reports about this on this forum ...

You may have been forwarding the message - I got hit by a similar block.

Thomas ,

Thanks again.

I'm not sure I fully grasp the difference between folders and trays even after reading through the relevant Pegasus help topic. I'll play around with adding folders and/or trays and see if I can figure it all out.

[quote user="Thomas R. Stephenson"]

Can you elaborate on what you mean by "delete any tray stucture" . I'm

not sure what this means. Do you mean the order in which folders are

listed?

If you use trays to store folders then the trays will be lost and you just get a listing of the folders.  The tray structure is only in the hierarch.pm.

Great Thank you.

Hadrian 

Thank you for the suggestion -

Both, the "clear header" and "clear body" settings were set to 

clear the cache on diconection.

I uncheked and recheked the boxes and restarted Pmail. Hopefully this will address the issuse. In the mean time - do you have any other suggestions ?

Thanks again,

Dave

I use SyncToy. It's one of the "unofficial" programs available from Microsoft as part of a set of Windows-tweaking tools, but it can be downloaded separately. Just install it on one of the systems, then make sure the other computer is available via network. You set up "pairs" of folders to be synched. I have a bunch of different mailboxes, as I archive them at year-end and start a new one for each new year, so I sync only the current mailbox folder. SyncToy compares that folder to both computers and moves/deletes files as needed to get the older one caught up to the newer. It also has a feature to send any files it deletes to the recycle bin so that you can retrieve them if necessary.

You can download it here: http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/details.aspx?familyid=C26EFA36-98E0-4EE9-A7C5-98D0592D8C52

Best part about it: It's free. ;)

Take a look here:
http://community.pmail.com/forums/thread/21525.aspx

That only happens if you select more than one message and you want the program to generate names for each.

The address in the X-Envelope-To: except there are times when the servers send these to the sender: field. ;-)
