It's now working as I expected.

At the time of testing I already had a long standing address book entry for "Her" but no user named "Her".

After creating the user "Her" I then ran the tests sending mails to "Her" and "PM:Her" before opening and closing Pmail and ran into the previously described problem. Since then I have closed and opened Pmail and the same tests work OK.

I guess that Pmail needed to be closed to force something to be written to disc so that the function would work.

I am not the poster, but I use RAR compressed files due to much better compression ratios, and speed of compression. Also the available commandline does come in handy for scripting etc.

Not the point, the point is that ZIP is a very common format and supported directly by the Windows OS, RAR is not.  The receiver needs to have some sort of program on their end to receive this as an attachment.  When you send a RAR attachment you'll probably find a number of receivers will ask you to send a ZIP archive instead. 

Again, my question, do you select to send RAR instead of ZIP when sending email attachments?  Unless I were to receive this sort of archive on my home system I'd not be able to use it.

Or at least the ability to select the columns you want, like many other programs already offer.

or at least to provide the opportunity to automatically change the content of the from-field by marking the message as copy-to-self (either by a filtering rule or manually under message properties). Should not be that difficult...

Hi

thanx for the informations, but I think you mean something different as I do. I have changed in PMail:

Addressbooks -> Addressbook properties -> and there I have checked for all Addressbooks:

 - Apply the e-mail address instead of the alias

 - Do not resolve aliases in this addressbook

The addressbookfile is stored on a networkdevice, where I do not have any writepermission. So the

changes I made could not be stored in the addressbookfile. But where else is it stored ?

For completeness, I thought I better report the solution to this problem. I checked the file contents of the Pmail shared directory against a fresh Pmail install and discovered that four files were missing. Sorry, I didn't note which files they were, but at least two of them looked as if they might be dictionary-related (the main dictionary file was still present and correct). If I had more time, I might have identified their function, but I usually don't get the satisfaction of tidying up all the loose ends. No idea how they got deleted, but it serves as a lesson. I'm 95% sure it must have been me who deleted them, because only three of us have the rights and the other technicians leave Peg & Mercury to me.

Merci pour l'information, Philippe, it's interesting to know that you came up with roughly the same solution for staff/students as I did.

Regards,

thx Richard !

When starting Pmail for a particular user I get:

OLE error window.. no error number - OK

then

OLE Error - unable to access file - OK

I recreated a new mailbox and set it up and still get the error message.  This happens from more that one workstation.

Novell network, Windows Xp and Pmail ver 4.41

Strange idea: as the notation suggests, a folders window displays folders, not address books. Likewise it is presumably not possible to watch TV in the folders window.

It is Mercury/32 that detects and utilizes the Forward file and can Copy to another user or email address so I assume this is a rule in Mercury/32.  I can confirm that using Forward files has been more reliable than Copy and Forward rules.  My guess is that the rules are susceptible to detection errors whereas the Forward file insures a forward of every message that hits that mailbox.

Future posts should probably be a new thread on the Mercury forum if this is indeed a rule in Mercury/32.

I tried menu Tools/Options/Incoming Mail/Message Reader, but could not find the place to change drop down item to "automatically display remote-linked graphics".

I am using version 4.21c.

Upgrade to at least the latest version, v.4.41.

Hi!

iv:  You may have more than one Internet domain name mapped to a single
     NDS context, but you may not have multiple NDS contexts mapped to
     a single Internet domain name except by using the '/' operator.

I'm using the '/' operator:

[Domains]
/Teachers : mydomain.com
/Students : mydomain.com

In Mercury for NetWare: OK.
In Mercury32 with NDS: only detect users under /Teachers context :(((

Any idea?

Thx,
Barsony

Perfect. Thanks for such a quick response. Now to remember it the next time it happens.

Best wishes,  John
 

Thomas,

that part is fine. Been down this lane several times checking. Also all the paths were OK on old server. Has searched all files for occurences of //oldserver/share and replaced them with //newserver/share. Rest of the paths are as before the move.

 We found the cause .... securitysettings in the 2003 server......

When the directorytree was created the OS created a security group 'Creators and owners' with some 'advanced rights' that was non-editable on this directory level (Maybe inhereted from somewhere?). We compared with normal 'shared directory' creation and found that this group was not created. So .... let's delete this group and see what happens ..... Voila, Pegasus starts prefectly.

I am trying to delete POP3 spam on my POP3 mail server.  I have created and saved the tools-mail filtering rules-create /edit POP3 rule set using words repeatedly used in the spam headers, then I have edited internet mail options-receiving (POP3)-edit- download controls and selected the relevant rule set, then OK'ed or saved everything and re-started PMAIL.  However, the rule does not delete the spam on the server as expected.  I am using the POP3 toolbar, and neither selective or general download buttons achive deletion of the spam - the messages remain available for download, and are not deleted under any option.  Am I missing a step, or are some ISP servers not able to accept such instructions, or any other possibilities ?

[quote user="lhhesscpa"]When I use the Find with "Search all folders in selected mailbox" and select "My mailbox" the results do not include any messages in the "New mail" or "Copies to self" folders. Is this normal behavior of Pmail?

[/quote]

It should search everywhere including "Copies to self" but excepting New mail which you can search when the focus is on the New mail folder and you select "Search the current folder only"

 IIRC, the files are WI_sph.ini and words4.db3 and they are located in the users HOME mail directory.  The white.pml and black.pml may also be affecting the processing.

Thanks Thomas, that worked. I copied the "best" educated spamhalter files into all mailboxes, works ok now. [Y]

Rook, try going into CLASSIC mode.

 In the thread I didn't see the contents of the actual filters (unless you've added them), so how can we tell if it should be triggered?
 

Thanks, I'll have to do with this one, then.

Thanks,

it worked and really helped

When you are editing the signature, you see a drop down box "Variant:".
Please add your signature in "Internet address, formatted content" AND also in "Internet address, plain content"

Tell me what happens now? 

Pegasus will get the signature formatted content when Pegasus detect formatted email, when Pegasus only detect a plain message, then the plain content will be used.
