Is it possible to specify a text font to be used in all windows for sending mail, e.g. reply and New Mail messages?  I can see how to change the font in an open window, if I change the font in that window, then send that item, if I subsequently open a new window (for a reply or new message) I am presented with the default font again.  I am sure that I have done this in the past, but I now cannot find how to do it.  Is it in the config file?

Thanks

Problem solved after update to printer driver and 250 updates to windows.

I use different icons for the various shortcuts to the different mail accounts. I, too, have issues restoring Pegasus Mail from the Notification Area so just hover over the flapping wings until the name appears and then click the Taskbar entry. The different icons help me recognise which account is which.

It's disabled by default since hidden images are used for tracking purposes. You may enable it for certain senders or all of them on Tools => Options => Message reader (at the bottom).

Your menu size (File, Edit etc) can be changed via Control Panel. The font size used in the folders displayed by Pegasus Mail can be changed by using the Folder > Font option. Message font size can be changed using the Reader > Font option.

Thanks caisson for the link

David Harris has already fixed the problem with the Don't Send button and the fix will be included in V4.71 in the near future.

The above message from thread http://community.pmail.com/forums/40439/ShowThread.aspx#40439 is dated 12th of March 2014.  I figured I'd wait until 4.71 is released before upgrading from 4.63.  Needless to say, I didn't think 'near future' would have been quite this long, but stranger things have happened.

So, is 4.71 still on the horizon, or 'round the corner, or is v5 going to be next, or... 

Forgot to mention that setting the fonts in the preview are works in two folders out of 8 I have. But I also wonder do I have to set the Preview area fonts for each folder individually or I set it once and its good for all folders

One method...

CMD prompt:
  MD C:\_EXPORT\MAIL.MAI
  CD /D C:\_EXPORT\MAIL.MAI

Pegasus:
  Tools > Public folders
    Add tree
    Descriptive name... : Export
    Path to... : C:\_EXPORT
    OK
    Done

Copy or Move desired mails to Folder "MAIL.MAI" in mailbox "Export".
Once completed you may "Remove tree" in same "Public folder" dialog.

Return to CMD prompt:
  REN *.CNR *.EML
  DEL COUNTERS.PM
  START.

Think I solved my own problem by deleting all references to optonline.net (former ISP) and adding user name and password to security page for smtp setup. Anyway ........

Thanks Brian, now I got it

Thanks to both of you for your help with this.

I am using V4.70 Build 546

Perhaps this is something that might be remedied in the next release? I, and others, use the 'Insert hyperlink' feature to simplify the appearance of long/complex URL's so if it is a size limit imposed by Pegasus Mail hopefully it can be adjusted or removed :)

Cheers!

Presumably you are filtering your copies to self. Can you not also do that with the CC's?

[quote user="Joerg"]Thanks Caisson, now I got it. In case anybody is searching for in Fully German Version:  Extras > Einstellungen > Eingehende Nachrichten > Vorschau-Einstellungen > "Detailanzeige im Vorschaufenster aktivieren"

But unfortunately it doesn't take any effect to the preview pane. It is still being displayed.[/quote]

Hi Joerg,

It's good to be corresponding with you again.  As for the preview pane, the setting to remove the ribbon only removes the ribbon as I'm sure you noticed.  You can now effectively hide the preview pane by grabbing the divider bar between the message list and the preview pane and dragging it down.

Based on your other posts I now understand that you are concerned about the auto-preview of potentially dangerous messages and that you understand users are pretty safe with remote graphics disabled.  Knowing that, there probably isn't an advantage to hiding the preview pane.

Now all is fine, thanks again for your time

[quote user="eug4not"]I'm using Pegasus v4.63 and wish to try out v4.70. Is there a way to do this, leaving behind a way to go back to my present v4.63 in case of encountering some intractable problems with 4.70? [/quote]

That depends on the installation.  If installed to the default location of C:\PMAIL with programs in C:\PMAIL\PROGRAMS and mailbox directories in C:\PMAIL\MAIL then you have two options. 

If you want to test it with you existing configuration then make a copy of the entire C:\PMAIL directory including all subdirectories which you can restore if you don't like v4.70.  Install v4.70 over the existing installation.  The only caveat is that if you use POP3 and delete mail on the server, mail downloaded into v4.70 will not be available to the restored v4.63 without some effort.  If this is the case you might want to make a plan for that before you begin. 

Alternatively you can install v4.70 beside v4.63.  Install it to a path like C:\PMAIL470 (keep the directory name at 8 characters or less with no spaces).  I don't exactly remember the installation routine but I think you can tell it not to create start menu entries or a desktop shortcut so as not to overwrite the ones you have now (I don't know for certain that it would, just a precaution).  You would then need to create a shortcut to C:\PMAIL470\PROGRAMS\WINPM-32.EXE.  If you use POP3 you might want to configure it to leave mail on the server so that it is available for your v4.63. 

If you want to run both instances simultaneously you will need to add the -MS command line option to each shortcut.  For details see Help > Command line options.

I dont know why you are blaming Gmail for this, Im using a completely different SMTP server and having the same problem. The servers are accepting post most of the time. Its only when we use this copy and paste that things go wrong. Gmail is not closing the connection, true but the likely cause to my mind is that Pmail isnt terminating its part as it should. The copy and paste has knocked something out of kilter. 

I have been experiencing similar problems here in the U.S. over the past few days. Coincidentally, my ISP uses Yahoo mail.
