The Tools | Options | Mailbox location function of V4.xx is broken.  In order to move the mailbox location you must either use v3.12c or  

1.  Use Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info and note the current HOME mail
    directory.  It's generally the same as the NEW mail directory.

2.  Exit WinPmail.

3.  Edit pmail.ini file in the NEW mail directory and change the
    following line to point at the new HOME mail directory. These are
    using the UNC format to point at server ESVCS, volume C_DRIVE, directory
    MAIL, subdirectory THOMAS


Home mailbox location                = \\ESVCS\C_DRIVE\MAIL\THOMAS
Working home mailbox location    = \\ESVCS\C_DRIVE\MAIL\THOMAS

3.  Move all of the files from the HOME mail directory to the new HOME
    mail directory but DO NOT move pmail.ini.

Using Pegasus 4.41. with 2 users in standalone mode on WinXP Pro

We open Pegasus mail using the following comand line

"C:\PMAIL\winpm-32.exe  -i all -id <user name>"

The home and new mail boxes are on a server, which file does the comand line read as i cannot seem to change the home mail box location. Copied all the relevant information & changed the cfg file

and changed home mailbox in Options.

The new mail box has changed without a problem.

Thank you

Ignore previous post I found it to be the Pmail.ini file in the new mailbox.

Problem was I found around 6 or 7 pmail.ini's no doubt lying around from previous installs 7 mailboxes.
