[quote user="idw"]When you have forward attachments enabled Pegasus Mail attaches all parts of a message including the plain text body, IOW: It can simply be ignored, otherwise you'll need to remove this particular pseudo-attachment manually before sending the message.

The following configuration gives me what I want:

Thanks to all.

Problem apparently solved as a mess up due to latest Win 10 update. Going back to the recent restore point put things back in order.

I have had to do this before, but I need a reminder:  I want to Install it on my C Drive but keep my data (admin folder) on a separate drive where I keep my data file. Up to now, since I left XP behind and got a 64 bit system (now on Win 10), this is where I've been running it from, successfully up to now, but over the past week it has been constantly freezing, and maybe the unusual position could be part of the problem.

[quote]Often, when opening Pmail, it will start the splash screen and then it will disappear and nothing more happens. If I try to opening again, the shortcut icon just blinks once and nothing more occurs.[/quote]

Under normal circumstances Pegasus won't open twice - so that's correct behaviour.

[quote]If I use the Task Manager there will be one or more of the exe files running, but none are fully loaded (i.e.,  the memory allocated is significantly smaller than normal).[/quote]

Hmm ... sounds like there is another splashscreen (not that intro) where Pegasus is waiting for user action.

[quote]If I end all those processes, Pmail will start normally after noting that other occurrences  of the program may be running. What is causing this problem?[/quote]

The last one is very simple: If you end Pegasus via taskmanager, the MAILBOXP.LCK indicating a running instance of Pegasus remains in your mailboxdirectory.

I'm not shure but if you shutdown your Windows (which Windows) without prior to it shutting down Pegasus. In that case the MAILBOXP.LCK eventually remains too, because Windows perhaps kills Pegasus process. When the splashscreen disappears, is there still an Pegasusicon in the taskbar or may be at the right end at the buttom in the status-/systembar? Maybe there is the second" splashscreen" with the note on running instance waiting on your action. Maybe you have confugured Pegasus in the options to hide the taskbar-entry on minimized Pegasus? Don't know why Pegasus minimizes!

I have excluded the folder from my AV scanner.  The thing is everything was running swimmingly till this week.

Thanks, Caisson. It was easy to locate the offending file by date. I still have another minor problem

which I will post separately.

How about comparing "before" and "after" versions of a such a file byte by byte, maybe using a test folder with only one or two messages inside?

I experienced two sources of long delays, maybe it is not your case but it might be worth checking:

- my default printer was unreachable (a laptop moved from my office to my home),

- the MAIL folder was under antivirus scan (or maybe Windows indexing service, cannot remember now)

Correct.  The credentials stick until Pegasus Mail is restarted.  If you don't want to have to enter your credentials for each session then enter them in the configuration of that POP3 host.

Tools > Internet options > Receiving (POP3) tab

Thank you!

Thanks Brian. Fixed up zip to remove directory info. New file is http://community.pmail.com/files/folders/pegadd/entry44713.aspx

Didn't think it was. Glossary is a useful alternative.

I have a neutral beige color with just a hint of yellow.  Nice contrast with being bright.

Martin FYI: IER deals the same way with the mouse wheel like BearHtml does. And with regards to paths with blank spaces: My EXE path doesn't have any, but I don't see any issues with using a path containing blank spaces for my mailboxes. Aside from this it doesn't matter for Tom's issue since if it would he wouldn't even be able to launch MSO from within Pegasus Mail. David Harris most likely uses for launching external applications where it isn't required to provide any executable at all.

Unfortunately this is a problem with hi-resolution monitors displaying the fixed font sizes used in much of Pegasus Mail.  This has been discussed a log with no ideal solution being identified.  Some folks use screen magnifiers, other (like me) reduce the resolution of the monitor.  The optimal resolution for my laptop is 1920x1080 but I run it at 1600x900. 

You may have already looked at the help file but if you haven't, press F1 to open it up then in the Contents tab scroll down to fonts to see info about the fonts that can be configured.

That did it! Thank you.

[quote user="Art Layton"]I have never run into it. It  started after I had to reformat my hard drive because windows 10 corrupted some files and my computer wouldn't start..[/quote]

Sounds like your system still isn't back to normal ... I doubt anyone other than MS can help here, maybe you need to reinstall your printer drivers if this issue doesn't cease. For a start you could try installing a Generic / Text Only printer as default printer using the Windows printer setup to see whether it's caused by a corrupt printer driver.

[quote user="irelam"]If you are using Bearhtml or IERenderer  (default) as your Html viewer you can avoid the steps of invoking an external browser, just keying in one of the following:[/quote]

IER even allows you to set a larger default (zoom) size in its configuration (accessible via its toolbar button or main menu entry), and it should always work in HTML (formatted) messages, no matter what the author intended.

Figured it out. Thanks anyway.

[quote user="Marcel"]I have two queries regarding the appearance of Pegasus Mail. I can adjust the font in the message panel for type and size but I would like to also similarly adjust the font in the address and subject bar. How can this be done please?[/quote]

Unfortunately those are fixed fonts that can't be changed.

[quote user="Marcel"]Secondly can the email list of new messages be adjusted to cover the full width of the panel?[/quote]

I don't know exactly what you mean by this.  Windows can be stretched, panes can be resized, column widths can be adjusted if any of that helps.  Perhaps it is the truncation of the From & Subject content that you are referring to.  If so, that can not be changed.
