The problem is, that Thunderbird uses more fields for an contact than Pegasus does (e.g. Pegasus has one 'name' field, Thunderbird two).

I don't know, if a converter exists, maybe you have to changethe tab-file manually.

Remove the tab between the contact names and put the e-mail address right after the name in the tab-file. Now the name and e-mail address

will be displayed correct in Pegasus.

 

Note: Please don't write your whole message in capital letters.

I have not heard it mentioned.   As you may know, Pegasus Mail is going through a redefining of features, and part of that redefining is the basic parts and how we can access them.  I would not be surprised if this printing option will be available. But I can't promise anything, that will be up to David

Success!  I finally found a combination that worked.  Thought I'd pass this on in case others run into this MSN problem.  I rechecked name and password for spelling, the correct port addresses and settings that you mentioned, etc.  First, msn wants the whole correct email address, not just the prefix.  But the weird setting is to check the "Disable certificate validation" box...  for both the POP3 and SMTP security settings.  I wouldn't 'o thunk it!

Now do you know where I can get a list of file names that Pegasus uses, so I can copy them onto a different computer with a newly installed Pegasus, so they have the same folders, addressbooks, and setups?

In any case, thanks to all who contributed to unraveling my dilemma. I am happy to continue to use Pegasus.

 Regards.

Sorry, but searches didn't pull up threads on sharing of distribution lists.  I need to know what switches, or modification of ini file,etc is needed to direct to commonly shared distribution lists.  Seems to me it was in the shortcut for Pmail itself, but it's been a while.

 Any pointers in the right direction would be appreciated.

 Thanks.

If you want to set it using the commandline, add -V PML=<drive>\<path> to the commandline.

Filters? What? - do you autoforward in Pegasus Mail based on the headers?

Please double-check that you have set the control correctly in the SMTP definition you're actually using (you may have more than one). If you have, then go to the "General" page of the "Internet options" dialog and check the control labelled "Create Internet session logs". Now attempt to send a message again, to generate the error. Next, go back and turn the "Create Internet session logs" control off.

If you check in your mailbox directory, you'll now find a file with the extension .WPM (the name will be something like "TCP00001.WPM"). Load that file into Notepad and remove any password references (replace the characters with 'X's) then send me the file. I'd recommend sending it to me directly as David.Harris@pmail.gen.nz rather than posting it here.

Cheers!

Thanks - I'll check this out - we are no longer using Mercury but just pop the mail now as the whole school is on a webmail system but there's a few of us who hate its limitations. There is nothing in the pmxf.ini. I've searched the hard drive of the computer looking for any sign of the address and it comes up with nothing.  Perhaps it just one of those weird things I'll have to live with!

Sounds like you hierarch.pm is hosed somehow.  Try  the following procedure.  This has worked for several others to restore
the functionality of the  message folders:  

1.  Use Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info to determine your mail
    directory.  Exit Pegasus mail.

2.  Rename the file HIERARCH.PM in your HOME mail directory to
    HIERARCH.SAV.

3.  Run WinPMail.  Your HIERARCH.PM will be re-created and should
    start working correctly.

Note:  This will delete any tray structure you have created and it
           will have to be recreated.  The process will not affect any
           mail of mail folders you have, it only affects the display of
           the folders.

BTW, at least for Comcast in the Eastern seabord of the U.S. there is no need to change the SMTP port from its value of 25 or to check the box you check in the Security tab.  Keep it simple.
