[quote user="Joerg"]It seems using the "Disable Extension" you can only disable main menu entries but not single entries within the different settings areas. In the ids.txt file I didn't find a code for disabling bouncing.[/quote]

It might be possible to block other IDs as well by taking a look at Pegasus Mail's resources and figuring out their IDs (Sven Henze certainly knows how to do it and I could do it as well[:-*]).

[quote user="Joerg"]Could this cause any problems in future spam results?[/quote]

Since I'm not using Spamhalter I have absolutely no idea, you may need to ask Lukas Gebauer himself.

Not built to the desired purpose I have used PmailUndup to verify a large bunch of folders, and eventually correct indices. Instead of mouse right-click each folder and pick Check consistency and/or Reindex folder, I use PmailUndup once in a folder set. The utility is available for download here in this Community.

I'm not sure if what I'm about to say would fulfill your needs, but there's a workaround I've successfully tested:

  1. Select all messages with attachments you need to save, that is, to extract its attachments at once;
  2. Forward them as a MIME digest to a local address. My choice is forwarding it to a noticeboard address;
  3. Open the forwarded MIME digest in the noticeboard and select the Attachments tab. You'll be able to see all attachments of all those selected messages in the classical tree view you already know;
  4. Select the attachments you want to save and click the Save button;
  5. Select the "Prompt for a filename for the first attachment, etc..." radio button, then "OK", and they'll be sent to the target directory;
  6. Finally, delete the noticeboard entry when it is done to save space.

[quote user="Euler GERMAN"]I changed path to %AppData% and it worked flawlessly but all references to graphics were now written in 8.3 notation, at least for those messages sent to Firefox.[/quote]

Yes, IER uses 8.3 paths for avoiding issues with the Windows MAX_PATH length which is 260 characters unless using UNC paths (which might create other issues). BTW: Some "legacy" parts of Pegasus Mail are limited to even shorter paths than this, IIRC affecting attachments, e.g.

great suggestion! thanks! I deleted the lines 

 

[SELFOL]

Wählen Sie einen Ordner RS=-524,204,493,690

 

in STATE.PMJ and now the window appears in the middle of the pmail window.

That's it!  Looked at Various tab in Configure and the Default HTML printing box was not ticked. No idea how that happened, maybe I accidentally ticked the don't show this option again, or that I didn't notice but problem solved.

Thanks to both of you. Would have responded earlier but having problems with some corrupted mail so may be posting again soon.

[quote user="Dilip"]That almost worked! I downloaded a few files but then I opened an email with a JPG attached that was a little less than 7MB. When I tried to click on it, I got the out of memory error and Pegasus Mail crashed. What am I doing wrong? Thanks![/quote]

What are your system specs? Do you have sufficient RAM installed? Do you have plenty of free hard drive space?

[quote user="Brian Fluet"]The "Personal name" field located in Tools > Options > General settings > Basic settings is what controls whether your name is included in the From: header.  No entry here, no name part in sent messages.  This field is identity specific.[/quote]

Right, I understand.

In this case, Pegasus combines the Personal Name and the Internet address to the header of all outgoing mail. In my opinion, that seems like exactly the right thing to do.

In the case of addressees on outgoing mail, it seems like the same approach would be appropriate. But then again, I just realized that some people might use Aliases in their address books that they might not want the addressees to ever see.

So I guess I'm back to editing all my address book entries to make them look like: John Smith <John.Smith@smtp.att.net>. This makes my only suggestion be that this be added to the help file.

thanks,

[quote user="Melissa2011B"] Pegasus suddenly started having Pop3 and SMTP errors this morning. No changes were made to the settings. I use SSL for 3 identities of email addresses, covering 2 hosts. 

 It was working one minute and not the next. I spent about 90 minutes on the phone with tech support at one of the hosts and we were unable to resolve it.

 But I noticed that the problem wasn't happening in Mailwasher, which I use ahead of Pegasus, to view incoming emails and delete spams, so they don't download in Pegasus.

 So I finally tried shutting down and restarting Pegasus, and it started working again. But an hour later, it stopped working, and I shut it down and restarted it, and it worked again.

It started happening while IDrive online backup was running, this morning, and I'm wondering if that may have botched up a Pegasus file - like if it tried backing up a Pegasus file while Pegasus may have been checking email? [/quote]

We know that Pegasus Mail doesn't cope well with simultaneous access of its file by itself and by AV, backup, or sync products but it's difficult to know for certain whether iDrive caused or contributed to the problem.  You don't mention capturing any internet session logs.  Keep those in mind as a tool for trying to determine the cause of POP3 or SMTP failures.

[quote user="Melissa2011B"] Or maybe restarting the PC might help? [/quote] 

A cold boot has been known to work wonders.

I was looking into PHC and PMC file contents and I'm guessing here if David H. himself knows or remembers its format. It is clear to me that most of that is IMAP format, a protocol we all know is poorly documented. I'd wouldn't mess with that. This is a 14-year old code as stated by the copyright inside PMC.

I quick test I just did didn't work as planned. The Print rule action seems to work only on plain text messages, and even so it doesn't cope well with repeatedly action calls.

Yes, I tried changing the Bearhtml.ini  default font colour to green but no difference.

See below image to clarify - when I select a message - or folder - it highlights blue.

As you suggested it may well be a Windows  choice - but how do I change it (if I can).
