How to abort Send in progress?

[quote user="idw"]... There's a Stop button on Pegasus Mail's status bar (bottom right) which turns red while Pegasus Mail is sending and should allow you to interrupt it - but I'm not sure whether it works the way you want it. [/quote]

Thank you, Michael. The Stop button worked well enough: It aborted the send process (which was my primary objective). The message left in the Queue Manager was converted to Final Form, hence no longer editable. But that's not a problem because I can edit and resend a copy from the Sent mail folder (Outbox).

[quote user="Brian Fluet"]You can configure Pegasus Mail to queue all mail which allows time for a second thought. [/quote]

Thanks for the suggestion, Brian. I do have mail queued before sending and therefore have time for a second thought. So the Stop button allows yet a third thought! Generally that occurs when I am forwarding or resending a message with a large attachment which I forgot to remove. The slow transmission on send alerts me that the attachment is still there.

Hello,

Is there any way to stop a send process while it is still underway? Sometimes I realize I should change something in a message now being sent! We could abort a send process in Eudora, but I don't see if that is possible in Pegasus 4.70. Thanks.

There is no a way to stop a send in progress.  You can configure Pegasus Mail to queue all mail which allows time for a second thought.  These controls are in the SMTP host configuration.

Be advised that in v4.71 there are issues with the Queue manager which have been discussed here.  A search of the forum for "queue manager" will locate relevant topics.

Well, this isn't quite right: There's a Stop button on Pegasus Mail's status bar (bottom right) which turns red while Pegasus Mail is sending and should allow you to interrupt it - but I'm not sure whether it works the way you want it.
