You can convert to Unix .MBX format by creating a Unix mailbox folder from the "Add" pop-up in the Folders window and then copying all the relevant messages from a normal folder to the new one.
Unfortunately "Folder information" doesn't tell you the disc file name for Unix folders so you will need to use a file manager (e.g. Windows Explorer) to find the most recent file with a .MBX extension in your Home mailbox directory.

Thanks for the "solution" which had been in front of me all along for these years of use. So... you can teach a not too old dog some new tricks:-)

Thanks again.

Thanks Thomas! I appreciate your help. Try it out tonight.

I guess we're okay now....for some reason she's back working properly. Must have been some type of re-set...although I'm still blaming verizon

Thanks for taking the time Mr. S. I sincerely appreciate

Utf8.tmp is the ICONV converted input file for languages. All messages are converted to UTF-8 before display.  What you are seeing is a collision between Copernicus and P.M     You need to prevent Copernicus from touching the Pegasus Mail directories.

thanks Thomas....that's actually what I am also doing...but the inbox is not refreshing. Will keep trying some other things.

Thanks, that fixed it.  The emails were not deleted, just hidden because of that setting.  I had just reinstalled Windows, etc.  Apparently, the older messages, even though they were restored from a backup of my mail folders, were not marked as read, and thus were not hidden.

plz help :(

Sounds like your Adobe install is not complete, because Pegasus Mail has let Windows launch Adobe Reader.  Adobe has just released a big security fix and is encouraging people to install it. Hope you are not infected.

Some users may regard them as spam [:P]

But seriously, having more control of your mail also requires a bit more configuring, rather than having the programmer(s [:)]) do it for you.

That would be why most people here use Pmail over other clients.

Many thanks for your answers. The mails have been transferred without any problem ... and the user is pretty much satisfied.

Mercury is certainly not needed but I've found it very useful for handling all the mail for the users on the lan.  It works especially well when used in conjunction with Pegasus Mail.

Thank you for this reply and the information, I have so much to learn and so little time to get things done.  I am going to go with just Pegasus for now, maybe later that other part could be added.  Still working on learning more about Pegasus, now needing to learn about Vista, have two or three other computers I want to setup for other tasks, still need to save some of my information on the XP that crashed on me.  Not to forget my tasks here at home, cooking, cleaning, washing, cut the grass, bath for the dogs, and me once in a while.

 I think it will be just Pegasus for awhile.  TIA,

I wonder what it would take to interface with the windows display API's to determine whether the window being drawn is being drawn on a window that is not there and adjust accordingly?

I suspect that is the problem, as ALL multi window programs I use (that remember their window positions) show this behavior when you move the screen from under them.

Mr. Thomas Stephenson,

Would you forgive me today on this matter and I promise you I will get to it tomorrow.  Spent the entire day looking for some things for my Wife so she may finish her projects.  Was completely Un-Successful in finding any of what she needs.  I am very tired at this time and feel there could be some ERRORs made by me and I do not want that to happen.

I will re-read your message and instructions tomorrow, after a night of rest I hope, will be on this about 0600 hours local time -6:00hrs from Zulu time.  Plus still not fully capable of working with Vista as of yet and still training, experimenting and doing some things to learn more about how to use this system.  Mostly still installing software that I like to use and orginizing folders and files.

I am not a dumper to the desktop and go from there, they are placed where I want them so they can be watched and kept safe.

 Thank you for not becoming upset with me because of my Final message, have been spending long hours on here to get this setup so I know where all programs are installed and saved, downloaded *.exe, *.zip, or any other form and kept safe so if need be they can be reinstalled.

I've tested public folders in Pegasus Mail using Ubuntu with Wine but I've only used the mapped drive letter.  I suspect you'll have to use drive letter mapping to get this to work.

For the Outlook folder there is a utility called PM2MSN32.exe from Martin Ireland that can convert the Outlook folders to Pegasus Mail message files.   PM2MSM32 is a specialized 32bit Mapi client that interfaces directly with Microsoft MsExchange/Outlook (or any other Mapi mail server).  It extracts the content of the InBox to individual text files that can be imported to other mail systems such as Pegasus Mail.  In the case of Pegasus Mail it puts CNM files into the new mail directory and then you can put these into a separate folder.  http://www3.telus.net/public/irelam/  

And if cost is not a problem here are a couple of commercial programs to do this  type of conversion.

Many thanks, I'll give it a try.

Hummm... doesn't work here; just tried it (with 3.12c). When I try I get a popup that says (in part):

"You cannot drop a message onto that window or onto that part of that window.

...

 You may not drop a message onto a folder where it is already located nor onto the New Mail folder."

So maybe there's a change since 3.12c? I'll be home tonight or tomorrow and will once again try 4.41 to see what I can figure out.

Well, that fixed it. Now I'm wondering why it has worked fine for several years before suddenly exhibiting this problem. Many thanks.

ISO-8859-2.  When I set here ISO-8859-1, the situation signifficantly improves.

It is very interesting, that Pegasus Email sends a differently encoded Email from the Email stored inside Copyself. If an receiver will send a cripled encoding I will notify this sooner. Or is it possible that other Email reader ignores totally reported encoding. Don't know.

Anyway, there are still several characters somehow modified:  "úplně ->  úplne"    "kouř -> kour"  "pricemž  -> pricemz"

I am pretty sure that a selected char set could accommodate even accented characters.
 

ISO-8859-1 set:
