I don't use any applications as described. I did some searching and it seems to me like you need extra software installed to give a Windows application the always on top feature.

I closed Pegasus and started it again and it behaved the same way. I showed a co-worker the behaviour, closed Pegasus (the same way as the first time) opened it again to show that it remained as always on top and it wasn't always on top any more.

I am guessing it was some odd Windows thing.

Thanks all I have Pegasus working by emptying the queue, Now I have all these PMX etc files in my recylce bin. I had 2 envelopes with all my e-mails saved before the deletes. What are might their names be (they were called messages and old) so I can restore them and recover my old YAHOO e-mails?

The group has been great and patient with a NEWBIE.

Thanks all one last issue I hope.

Send an email to yourself, then collect it, all within Pegasus. That's the fastest way to test an email client when setting it up.

 
If your message sends alright, your SMTP server (SEND SERVER) is configured correctly. If you can't send mail, the SMTP server is not configured correctly.

Tools > Internet Options > SMTP tab 

Note: There are several options on this menu and no one can tell you what needs to be checked without knowing who your ISP is and other information. There is also an option here to "send mail at once without placing in the queue" which you might want to do if your queue is clogged. There are also controls on the "Security" tab that your ISP might require... including authentication to connect to your mail server... this would be your ISP username and password.  

If you can send the mail okay but can't collect it, your POP3 server (RECEIVE SERVER) is not configured correctly.

Tools > Internet Options > POP3 tab

Also, the General tab (found with the SMTP and POP3 tabs) needs an email address filled in.

Excellent!!!! Thank you so much Greenman

......all is well and I appreciate. As mentioned it wasn't major but drove me simply crazy.

Using your instructions the same thing happened until I realized (Duh!) I needed to hit the hit the Apply

box and then File...then exit.

 

Everything super and thank you again.....LOL we need to give you another 2,350 points

Take Care

I meant to add that there may be controls in Pegasus that do not allow so many messages to be sent at once (because of spammers). So if you have been trying the "send all queued mail" and it hasn't worked, you might have to look into that. I've never tried sending a gazillion messages, so I don't know... but if you just send yourself one email and collect it, you can eliminate your setup as the problem. And send that message without going to queue (as I mentioned to you in another reply).

[quote user="Andrew Ampers Taylor"]I remember, a long time ago, David Harris writing that PMail would always be free as he believed in doing his bit to ensure that people all over the world could talk with each other through email

More and more third world countries have access to computers and a huge majority of these have Linux so the poorer countries can keep the cost down.

Alas, all these people cannot use Pegasus. But they can use Evolution and Thunderbird to name just two. So I guess it doesn't really matter in the grand order of things.

Not at all sure what you mean.  I, and many others, are using PMail and Mercury/32 with Linux daily.   Cost's nothing for PMail and nothing for Mercury/32 for personal non-commercial use.  Many, many of these Linux systems are using all sorts of free Windows programs and the free Wine make this possible in any Linux system.  If you really are on low end version of Linux then PMail for MSDOS works quite well in the Linux MSDOS emulator.

After more troubleshooting, it appears to be a bug in the newest version of the idwPGP-Frontend plugin, (v 6.1.0.0. from 11/2007).  Michael is a great guy and I'm sure it will get fixed eventually. From what I've gathered most people don't experience this problem.  Just wanted to post this in case someone has a similar problem and comes looking for the answer...

122.167.242.192 is on several blacklists - probably because it's a dynamic pool address from ABTS.  Your message didn't say which one.

What relay server are you using to send mail?  If it's an ISP, maybe they need you to authenticate.

Does it happen to all mail, or just to a particular address?

You are probably using multiple accounts.  The new version only allows this if you set it up that way when it is installed (according to the manual) and the default installation is single user only and cannot be changed after installation.

Isn't this a rather old thread? See my reply, and others, in the thread you created 2011-01-26:

The help files are very clear:

You have one identity and its POP and SMTP settings. You then create a new, second, identity (it can be based on an old identity, you select, so that you have some settings already arranged as you like). Everything can now be changed in the second identity and stay like that. Obviously it must have its own POP & SMTP settings, e-mail address etc.

Change from the default identity to the second identity, i.e. become it; select Internet Options... Add the address; on POP3 tab click Add then New, and remember to save the definition as something that can be recognised as related to identity B. Repeat for SMTP if necessary.

I have a single user setup, with several identities; it works very well.
