Angus,

Thank you for your thoughtful suggestion.  At the time of my problem, the Pegasus windows was clear of any subordinate windows.  Maybe my problem was that when I anticipated appearance of the options sub-window, I did not not notice appearance of the scrollbars.

You were correct that sudden appearance of scroll bars should have given me a clue.  When I was looking for the options window, I apparently failed to note the suddenly apparent scrollbars.  Thank you for your patience and your perception.

In your IMAP profile editor, switch to the "Performance" page and uncheck "Use fast folder listing commands".

This problem is in the queue to be fixed.

Cheers!

Not sure if this is more Mercury/32 or Pegasus Mail related. Please locate in the most logical or beneficial thread.

This snapin is great - it has made our

administration much easier. In using the snapin along with Mercury/32 v4.52(modules

S,P,E,D,X,I) in NDS mode, I have found a couple things that need to be changed

or added in the documentation (I am using v1.10b).

1. The syntax to ignore sorting and

place no spaces in front of the address reads Myforcefirst=N in the

documentation. What actually works (as found by turning on Mydebug) is

Forcefirst=N. I needed to get the "compute" function to remove the space

that gets added to the LDAP address by default.

2. The reason I found this error in

the documentation is that when using Mercury/32 + LDAP addresses + Pegasus Mail

(currently using v4.31), messages being sent to any yahoo address (US or Korea,

at least) are rejected because a space exists in the addresses. To get the

messages to deliver (to yahoo.com and some other domains), the leading space

must not be present in the address.

The MercuryE error that I've

commonly seen when trying to deliver messages where the sender LDAP address has

a leading space is “Connection error during handshake” or a 550 “…does not

conform…” .

OK...it seems to have "magically" started receiving again...but I did learn it is not sending anymore.  I have attempted several tests...and they never show up.

I did try a telnet port to 110...and it never returns a thing.  In fact the window just closes upon running the command.

Is the ' after the domain required?

[/quote]

Sorry, that was a typo on my part, the ' is neither required nor desired.  However, when testing sending you need to go into port 25.  There is also the possibility that your ISP requires authentication and is acting as a user agent on port 587.  You really need to talk to your ISP and ask them specifically what you need top be doing since this sounds like your ISP has changed things.

Thank you very much, that worked[:)]

There probably isn't a day goes by where I don't search my new mail folder, usually many times. Believe me, if this were a clear problem, it wouldn't last a second (the problems that get fixed fastest are always the ones that impact on me personally).

If you can come up with any more clues as to what might be happening, please mention them here and I'll try to make time to look into them.

Cheers!

My button panel has disappeared from my primary user, but it is still there on three other less frequently used users.  How do I get it back?

I tried changing Tools, Advanced Settings, Load Windows Internet Services to "Never" and back to "Always" but there was no fix.  The other users are set at "Always" and the button panel and the POP3 and SMTP buttons work just fine.

When you change back to "Always" or "On demand" from none you need to close and re-open the program. 

[quote user="twonotes"]

If that is how it is supposed to work then I will shuffle all my Identities around so that the <DEFAULT> one is the one I use with IMAP.

[/quote]

Yes, that's probably the best solution if you don't want to manually choose the identity before sending e-mails.

Thanks everyone. I can now use Pegasus from the non-Admin account. Like I said in one of my earlier posts, I've been using Pegasus since Windows 3.1 and a mostly text-based internet, and didn't want to give up on this. Thanks again for your time and expertise. Anyway to mark this thread "solved"?

What is the source of the emails which truncate?  I'll bet there is a problem with them having lines of text that are longer than the official RFC maximum for email (I think it's either 512 or 1024 characters in one line).  AOL is notorious for this.

   

Hi,

Thanks for your help (it was much appreciated!).

It turned out that one of my less-than-careful mates had sent an email with a suspect attachment.  Once I'd looked at my mail through my ISP's website & deleted the dodgy message, everything was ship-shaped & Bristol fashion once more.

Thanks again for taking the trouble to help.

All the best,

NOT really needing any assistance at this time.  Just wanted to pass on how my PMail is operating, without any difficulty.  If this is not acceptable in here then delete my POSTS.  Do not want to cause any problems just wanting to share.

 I have been using my systems for about 10 years from here at home, XP H/E SP-2 for about two weeks moved to this one from Win98SE and before that Win95 and Win3.11.  Have been on the web since before the "www" was ever started, about 1986 when I first started using TCP/IPs to surf, rather slow and combersome.

 Thank you for reading my post and this reply plus I appologize for any Miss-Understanding, have a great day,

You shouldn't have to do much to move the installation. I have used this when traveling and it's easy to go back and forth. If you duplicate the folders from your hard drive on the USB drive, it'll work without a hitch. For example: I created '\Program Files\pmail' and '\data\mail' on the USB drive to mirror the setup on the hard drive. Then, just start pmail instance from the USB drive with the -ROAM option and it should find everything just fine. ROAM tells pmail to ignore the drive letter in paths so it isn't dependent on a specific drive letter to work.

 If you are dead set on changing the folder structure, you can change your mailbox path using pconfig.exe (found in the pmail program folder). You should also search for all instances of your old folder names in the pmail.ini file (in the mail folder) and change them to the new folder names. You will still need to use the ROAM option to run from the USB because the drive letter may vary from one system to another.
 

Thanks for the link.  I guess I missed that thread somehow.  But I'm glad to hear their working on it and hopefully with the next version I'll be able to FINALLY replace OE.

 Thanks again,

Dave

Never a problem with mnsi.net (my local ISP) with Pegasus any version.  

Old Thread, but current problem...

I have the same issue, I send some e-mails from my smartphone (through IMAP) or the webmail interface, and when I download the sent mails, the list of mails shows "From:My_name" instead of "To:Someone".

Have anyone found a way to solve this?

I can change manually the text (rigth click on the message --> Message properties --> Text shown in "From" column), is there any way to automatize this?

Best regards,

Julian

Hello!

Are the messages you are talking about any HTML-messages? If so, what you see is that the message body is still displayed in preview even if you have deleted the message.
In order to have this happen as described, several conditions need to be met:
- you are suing preview mode (instead of list mode);
- the message you want to delete is an HTML-message; and
- that message is the last one in the respective folder.

Provided those conditions, this is what happens: you delete the HTML-message -- the message will be deleted -- as that message was the last one in the respective folder, there is no other message to be displayed -- the message body is still displayed in the message preview -- the details ribbon is empty although you still see the message body.
If you see that behaviour, I can tell you that the message has actually been deleted; however, the message preview (that still displays the message body) has not been redrawn / refreshed yet. That is a behaviour that only occurs when the conditions I have listed are met. This is an unexpected behaviour that is currently worked on.

The anti-virus monitoring you have mentioned may also be important here. The anti-virus software may check a file at the same time Pegasus Mail wants to read or delete that file. This may lead to some unexpected results. As I am not too familiar with the current anti-virus programs, I will not go into details yet; however, what I can suggest you is to check what files are excluded from anti-virus monitoring. If you tell your anti-virus program not to check several Pegasus Mail files, you can prevent a file from being accessed by both Pegasus Mail and your anti-virus software.

Pegasus Mail is probably doing this.  This only occurs for emails that are COPYSELF emails.  Pegasus Mail adds a special X-CS header to such emails to flag them specially as COPYSELF emails.  When Pegasus Mail sees this header in such a message, it knows to display the To: field instead of the From: field within the folder window.

I'm not exactly sure from your email whether you're checking this from Pegasus Mail or from Outlook.  Pegasus Mail doesn't have a To: field column in the folder window.  This is the reason for the X-CS field in the first place, so that you can see the recipient names rather than your own name.

because it says that it contains HTML text. How do I stop that from

happening?

Make sure that "Rich text" is not selected when you send the message.  This rich text can be selected automatically when you paste non-ASCII text into the message so yuo need to be careful or the message may not be readable..
