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).

I've post a long reply to a thread in this forum. I took me some time to make screenshots, edit the images, upload them to an image server, and finally make the post only to know it would be done so AFTER moderation.[:@]

I now remember why I LEFT this forum years ago. As you may see I'm one of the first-timers on this forum, and even though I have very few posts here. It is very frustrating to have your post subject to preventive censoring. Either remove an inconvenient post or ban the poster. There's a "Report abuse" link available if anyone feels uncomfortable. My tuppence.

Please, forgive the crabbiness of an old man.

[quote user="dlbayne"]Copy to Self results in an entry for each cc recipient. [/quote]

I don't know what would cause this.  This only thing that comes to mind that will act on the cc content is copyself filters.  I don't know about autofilters but that's worth checking as well (right click on the Copy to Self folder name > Autofiltering and see if there is a checkmark next to the "Autofiltering configured" item).

[quote user="dlbayne"] When I delete the duplications, I get the error message "Probable invalid offset in index record".

When I reindex, all the duplications reappear. 

How can I fix these problems? [/quote]

Deleted messages are just hidden until deleted space is recovered so a reindex will recover all deleted messages in unrecovered space.  Deleted space gets recovered automatically, by default at 24000 bytes available, but that is configurable.  There is a right click option to do it manually.

Sometimes a folder problem can not be fixed from within Pegasus Mail.  For those cases there is a utility included with Pegasus Mail called MBXMAINT_UI.EXE.  Find it in the \Programs directory of Pegasus Mail.  It's usage is self-explanatory.  You will need to know the filename of the folder to be repaired.  This is available from folder information (another right click option). I suggest making a backup copy of the relevant .PMM/.PMI file pair first.

I'm glad the problem has been identified.  

I wonder how many AOLers we have who post to listerv or mailman type lists with a reply-to set to the list address.

So do we assume it was the number of messages in the New Mail folder?

If this is due to leaving messages in the folder after being read (not filing) you can change one option:

Menu | Tools| Options | General Settings | Basic Settings |

Uncheck the  "Allow read messages to stay in new mail folder

This will then move  read mail messages form the New Mail folder to Main Folder

Unfortunately, you can't adjust the message header fonts or the fonts in the configuration screens.  These fonts are fixed in the code.  The workarounds are to either use a screen magnifier or decrease the screen resolution (changing system fonts will not help).

FWIW, I run by 1920x1080 laptop at 1600x900.

Thank you for your help. The solution was embarrassingly simple. I had copied the path to the clipboard, then tried to paste it into the <default> box, bbut it had not worked. When I simply typed the path into that box, Peg headed over there and read all the messages and folders and so on into itself.

As recommended, I let Pegasus install itself into its default folder.

 So I am now up and running. And very grateful for the help from you both.

Who are they addressed to?

As you may be aware you can set up a distribution list and specify a To: address which will replace the recipient addresses in the list.

Oh it is related alright.

One would expect P-Mail to auto adjust without having to close and restart the application.  Thus, a bug.

Any "rough ideas" anyone could have will be proven wrong sooner or later anyway, so the answer is: No. There hasn't a been a single beta version after the current public release. Mercury v5 will be the first one to come within the next months, but don't hold your breath.

[quote user="lhhesscpa"]When I receive an especially important email, one that requires priority attention, I manually apply the Urgent tag  so that it is placed at the top of the list of in the inbox. So an automatic rule is not a solution for my needs.[/quote]

I don't know of a way to change the urgent color.  You might be able to accomplish what you need by marking as unread and and then setting a color.  This won't keep the message at the very top of the list but it may keep it high enough.
