[quote user="Joerg"]1. Is it possible to avoid the permanently expanded view of additional public folder trees when starting Peg? Of course I'm able to collaps (or close - what is the right expression for it?) the public folder tree after the Peg start. But many of our users which are not involved in working with that public folders are annoyed of the permanent expanded additional tree every time they are starting their Peg session.[/quote]

Not that I am aware of.

[quote user="Joerg"]2.  From time to time the names of the single public folders (not the name of the public tree structure but subfolders) are being changed automatically. I tried to turn out why and when Peg do this but without success. E.g. if I named a folder "01 Ship", Peg changed it to e.g. "01 ShipSeed: 29822399". Any ideas?[/quote]

Sorry that I can't help with this either.  I have not experienced it.  I looked in my hierarch.pm for an entry that might provide a clue but there is only an entry for "Public folders", not for the actual folders themselves.

The thought of using directories as added mailboxes popped into my head this morning.  You should be able to feed them from Mercury but I don't know what the sharing ramifications are. 

At a set time means a particular time of day. Periodically means checking after a set time has elapsed since the last check.

However as far as I am aware this extension is no longer supported and might not be functional.

At the moment - - SOLVED (hopefully).

I used the ISP's webaccess to log into my email account and deleted some emails that were received at about the time yesterday afternoon that Pegasus stopped downloading.  I am now able to download current emails from that account.

I 'assume' that one of the emails was corrupt on the server - even though I could access it via IMAP4 and the webaccess.  Deleting it/them seem to have fixed my problem.

Excellent suggestion and a fine little piece of freeware to boot. Many thanks.

 One extra trick needed: the resulting image is one ordinary window width wide and three thousand lines long, so most image printers make it unreadable. Turns out the Paint pgm in Windows can handle this and when set properly produces a readable 55 page printout.

 Also: you can download a .chm file reader for most versions of windows (incl 7) here:

[quote user="Mark Irving"]that perhaps suggests there are two bugs to be fixed, one for long URLs and the other for displaying Japanese.[/quote]

Yes, this is exactly the suggestion I submitted to David Harris.

Michael's screen shot got me to look at my registry, which had no entry for Vivaldi in that location, but my Win 7 machine did, so I exported that entry and installed it into my Win 8 machine, and voilá! Pegasus now shows the link to Vivaldi in the right-click menu (and opens Vivaldi when left-clicked) as advertised.

I suspect the problems are to be found within the Vivaldi installation (which is, after all, in Beta . . . maybe Alpha) and Windows 8.1. Lots of pieces here, plenty of opportunities to miss something.

All's well that ends well, and I can move on to the next problem now.

Thank you, gentlemen! (Isn't the internet great? Remember when tech support was phone calls and days of waiting for a floppy disk that didn't solve the problem?)

Best regards,

Mike

Oh no! Yes, you are right! [8-)]

In the properties I could have found: write-protected...

So that is the reason! Simple but efficient! [;)]

Many thanks to you all!

Kind regards

The problem is solved! I claimed here and to Frontier support that nothing had changed, but I had forgotten - I played with my modem's settings and, finding the firewall to have "too low" security, I upped it. That apparently blocked some ports, as was suggested above. I think that on my computer my anti-virus is providing the firewall. Yay!

I was disappointed that Frontier, my ISP, claimed that Pegasus isn't supported, though I told them it was just a POP3 client. I worked with several folks - 2 of them gave u pretty quickly and never even suggested looking at the modem settings. I'm so glad I got it resolved! Thanks, all. 

MailStrip worked perfectly.  There's still a little cleanup needed, but it did strip the bulk of the distractions.  Thanks!!!

Aha! I'm glad I'm not the only person experiencing this issue. This has been a real problem for ages - I have exactly the same issue. When I follow links from PDF's, Word or Excel docs etc., the pages open in a timely manner. The delay and program freeze only happens with Pegasus Mail. However, I do not wish to potentially compromise my system by disabling the fraud check.

I removed the only .pmo file I found in the mail folder and it worked. Thanks !!!

If using selective download this shouldn't matter (screenshot below). Accessing the account via smart phone, IMAP or the web interface might cause issues, though.???

Thanks for your answer

I changed my password on all my e-mails accounts ... and will check what happens in the next few days

Itif works it should show very soon as about 10  "false" mails seem to be generated every day

Just as quickly as the problem appeared, it has departed.  Thanks to everyone who volunteered infor4mation.I appreciate the hellp!!!

Must be careful when using the older versions of Pegasus. Some ISP's or mail servers require the newer SSL option found in v4.70 of Pegasus.

I have IMAP.

 Does this mean that for every email that I store in the Pegasus database, I have to load Gmail into Firefox and delete it there?

Can I delete emails from Gmail within Pegasus?

This question makes me think that a clarification is needed about how IMAP works.  The IMAP protocol, unlike POP3, does not download messages.  It simply allows you to access (mount) a remote mailbox in an email client.  The messages remain on the remote server and only cached locally (optional in Pegasus Mail) unless you manually copy them to a local mailbox folder.  The cache is what allows you to view messages offline.  Configurations in both the email client and the remote server control how deletes made in the client are handled on the server. 

Gmail still supports POP3 so you might consider using it instead of IMAP if you want to download messages to a local mailbox and have them removed from the Gmail mailbox once downloaded.

Thanks to both of you - I'll do that.

The files in the "Do not overwrite" section of the white paper do not exist yet because the newly created user has not been configured yet in Peg.  They will be created when you configure the new user.  I do not understand why they were not in the mailbox directory that you copied unless you were running with different Home and New mailbox locations.

Best thing to do is to configure the new user then copy into the new mailbox directory only files as listed in the white paper.  If the copied mailbox directory contains a pmail.ini file consider using it as a guide during configuration.

The ONLY condition under which it is ok to copy an entire mailbox directory from one machine to another is if the paths to both the executables and the mailbox directories is identical on both machines.  Otherwise the invalid paths in the configuration files make Peg non-functional and difficult to troubleshoot.  I also believe that if an installation has been through multiple upgrades then at some point it is worth starting fresh with a clean install and just copying over data.  This insures clean config files and no "ghosts" from previous installs.
