I can operate pmail in an xp account with administrative privileges but not an account with limited user privileges.

Sounds like you do not have full rights to the mail directory. You need to set the rights on the non-admin account to allow the required access.

When I open Pmail, the Folders window shows what appears to be the total number of messages in any Unix mailbox including "deleted" messages and the number of unread messages a 0. It's only after I've opened a Unix folder that that the correct numbers are shown in the Folders window. 

Is that a know "feature"?

Hi all,

a few minutes ago I had a look at the Kaspersky Lab Forum following the keyword Pegasus, and I found the following suggestion (German first, then my translation):

Hallo und Willkommen im Forum,

im englischen Forum hat es

Anwendern mit diesem Problem anscheinend geholfen, winpm-32.exe als

vertrauenswürdige Anwendung mit der Option "Programmaktivität nicht

kontrollieren" zur Vertrauenswürdigen Zone hinzuzufügen.

===========

Hello and welcome to the forum,

it has apparently helped users in the English forum to move winpm-32.exe to the group of trustworthy applications and activate the option "don't control program activity".

============

...worked in my case, too, although I'd consider that solution as an ugly workaround - the Kasperskys should definitely do some debuggin' there!

Let's hope for the best!

Mathias

Thanks. I just tried resending the message to the same addressee from the same mailbox and had no problems. But I don't understand your reply. I will study up on what "identity" means in this context and see if that clarifies the situation for me. Appreciate the response.

Thanks Thomas.

I moved the CNM files this time too, and it started.  The new ones were all small, so I'm not sure what the problem is.  I had thought the problem was with big files.

Anyway, It's working, so that's what I need.  Thanks again.

it says msg send but when i check my email at nothing

Your PHP application probably sends to MercuryS  but to enable the mail to be sent to the outside you also must setup MercuryC to point at a external relay host to actually send the mail.  You probably can't send via MercuryE unless you have a real domain and a fixed IP address.

Thanks for link, but no applicable. Error only comes up when I try to open an email and none of the items in the ms article apply.

I generally don't print HTML messages - I generally hope I don't receive them; I wish people would stick to plain text as there is really nothing anyone can tell me in an email message that needs to have additional pointless formatting! If they want that, they can send me an attachment!

 Anyway - sorry for the rant, but....

Thanks at least for answering, but it's mainly plain text messages I'm interested in printing.

Hi Thomas,

 Many thanks. It now works as I want it to. Your help is much appreciated.

Regards, Ron Hulme.

30 Seconds

Should be not less than 120 seconds, i generally use 300 seconds.

Slow-Brain Newbee here; deficient vocabulary; need help: what is "MTU" ?

How are sending it - text or HTML?

You say you can open it in gmail - does that mean it's not the sending that's at fault, but the interpreting by the receiver?

Thanks to both of you for your replies.

Sent as HTML. Using the paste special command with no wrapping fixed it.

Cheers!

Thank you for your help. I think I now know how it functions. Thank you.

I have problems with attaching signatures when I send a mail. Sometimes the signature is written correct in the mail after the text, other times it does not show up (I test this facility in mailing to one of my own mail accounts and afterwards retrieving the mail). I can see no pattern in the behaviour and have tried various settings. If I choose that the signature (In Options) shall be shown when I create the mail, it works correct. But I dont want that, I want to be able to choose if there shall be a signature or not when the mail is sent. Any help will be appreciated.

[quote user="lordofthemoon"]If I replicate my existing folder structure on the IMAP server, will my existing mail filters continue to work, will I have to modify them or can I just not use filters on IMAP mail?[/quote]

You can use filters but you have to define them differently.

You define them as 'general rule sets' (the same filters are available) and attach them to the folders as 'on open' or 'on close'.  If you are using preview mode, the 'on open' work as soon as you select the folder, but 'on close' only work when you specifically open the folder and then close it.

[quote]As for settings, is it just a case of disabling my existing POP3 hosts (across all my identities), and ensuring that the IMAP server is set to connect automatically on startup?[/quote]

yes

[quote]Is there any way to synchronise mail from the IMAP server down locally for caching/speed/offline work?[/quote]

Yes, PMail caches folders, and you have quite a lot of control over it, but offline working isn't really an option with IMAP.

But why is that SMTP profile the same in the two identities? And why not the new one?

Because you created the new identity based on the other identity. Many times the identity does not need a different internet setup and even if you do it's a lot easier to change the current setup than to go through and enter all new data.

Worked!

Thanks...Jon

Create a POP3 rule with an easy to find name,  for the one user to download only if user = whoever On the other machine create the same rule with a different rule name but click the NOT check mark, to negate the rule

The rules need to be associated with a POP3 Internet service.  So go to menu Tools/Internet.  select the POP3 Receiving Tab.   Click to edit the entry you need, then select Download Controls, then Select button to associate your new rule with downloading  Then click OK    Repeat on second machine with the negative rule

Thank you for the reply Martin.

I created a POP3  rule set.  What kind of filtering rule should I add to download only one user?

Thank you,

Docfxit 

It's that simple Thanks

If the path is correct, use the   -I <username> command line option!

 From the help files -I <username>
"Specify your standalone identity on the commandline. This flag only operates in standalone mode (it is ignored in NetWare mode) and differs from -U in that you are not actually becoming another user - you are simply identifying yourself, so Pegasus Mail takes fewer security precautions against mail forgery."

Thanks - that did the trick.

I guess that the -U command must only apply to NetWare mode although Help doesn't explicilty say so. It would be better if help for the -I command was worded "Specify your standalone identity  username on the commandline. ......"

On the Folder content list, is there a Html icon on the left hand side that looks like an envelope, if so that shows there is html.  If it is html try keying in Shift + Ctrl + P while looking at the message content. This uses Bearhtml to do the printing rather than the internal Pegasus Mail printer service.
