Multi-Panel view of mail boxes . . .

Now to make this even worse for me, I cannot find any 'Post' button that is not connected with a message.  I am not posting this here as a reply to any post done here by any one person.  This is to fill in what I have now on my system:

 Mr. Stephenson,

 I have removed Pegasus Mail and reinstalled in a folder under my USERNAME of my system, it would not start, only flash the Pegasus startup screen and go away.  Removed that install and did another placing it on my DEFAULT drive (C:) folder "Pegasus" (without quotes) example: C:\Pegasus and there were two folders created within that one, Mail and Programs there is only one copy of the State.PMJ file as referenced by Mr. Harris and there are not any V4FP entries. Also if you look about six messages back you will find a very large example of what I am seeing on my screen.  I did something wrong when placing the link to ImageShack for that viewing, it is very large and if you drag the horizontal slide to the right you will see the GREY bar that runs vertically you will see at the top all six of the caption buttons for the MultiPanel and for Pegasus Mail and they are set to FULL SCREEN.  I feel any additional postings of screen shots will not be of any benefit to anyone.

 I have a screen shot of my Pegasus before the Uninstall with some of my mail displayed, that program was removed, also have one just made under the latest install and it looks just the same even without any mail in any of the boxes, only defaults are in there at this time.  One last point, if I may(?), when doing the uninstall of Pegasus the Mail Boxes were removed, I have copied them to a safe area and will be reinstalling them with my new install of Pegasus.  In the UNINSTALL it stated that the Mail Boxes would not be removed, they were.

 Greenman,

My information you requested on my Video driver: "NVIDIA, dated 4/20/2007, version # 7.15.11.5822, NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430, Microsoft Windows hardware compatibility publisher" all of the information within the quotes were Copy/Pasted from the 'NVIDIA GeForce 6150SE nForce 430 Properties' within the 'Device Manager' in Windows Vista SP1.  If there are any other specs you wish to see just ask, I may NOT be any sort of authority on these systems but I do know where to find most information and if NOT, will ask for guidance and will retrieve it ASAP.

 As a Journeyman Electronics Technician with about 60 years experience in repairing just about anything, that includes desktops, laptops and even Data General 64bit 19" main frames, I have repaired them all.  Multimeters, analog and digital; signal generators, square wave generator; Oscilloscopes (Tektronics 500 series plugins and Hewlett Packard and others), the end, the list goes on for many more items.  I stop this here.

If you want to know more, ask in a PM, this form is not for this type of information that I ENDED in my last paragraph.  What I am trying to get across to you is I may be having some problems with displaying PMail as has been NOT a problem for me in Win98, W98SE SP1&2, Windows XP SP2 (until that last system died) it appears to me that this is mostly, if not completely, a Vista problem and I have what is listed within my sig.  I do not list all of what is on my system because it is very long, mostly if not all that are on here have been run with each other on my other systems and have not had any problems with their activity or working together or even independently.  My main reason for these postings were to inform those that know much more than I that if this has not shown before, when other users start getting into Vista, "Command Center We may have a problem here . . ." may be the calls you start to receive.

 Thank you for all of your efforts and for reading my posts, stand-by you may start to get more from others,

I have Pegasus Mail v4.41 running four e-mail addresses with each in a single standalone version of Pegasus.  Multi-panel view of my mail boxes is not filling the bottom portion of Pegasus when expanding to full screen.  The Caption Buttons for the multi-panel viewer indicate it is set to full screen yet along the right side the border of the multi-panel is about .25 inches from the edge and when placing the mouse over that border it becomes a double headed arrow but you cannot drag it all the way out.  I would provide a screen shot but in Vista I am not sure as to how to do that.

 If you understand, could you advise me as to what to do?  If not then just ask more questions than I and see if I may have an answer. 

 My O/S is in my sig,

Exit from Pegasus Mail. Now locate the file called STATE.PMJ in your mailbox directory and open it using Notepad. Find all lines that start with V4FP (they'll be in a section marked "[General]") and delete them all. Save the file.

This should fix the problem; no idea why it might have happened though.

Cheers!

Mr. David,

Did just that as per your instructions, after re-reading several times to insure I had just the V4FP lines, and removed them.  If you would like the entries sent, that can be done as I have saved them from one of the STATE.PMJ files.  Plus, I did the same for all of the usernames that have access to their e-mail through this setup.

 Edited by NTxLS > Just after posting the above and then doing a complete system reboot, which did not help either.

Now for the BAD news, there was NOT any change for any of the PMail windows.  They remained the same . . .

Thank you for reading my request for some assistance in this matter,

I'm afraid it looks as though I'm not understanding your report. Without a screen shot so I can see exactly what it is you're reporting, I doubt I can be of much more assistance.

Cheers!

NOT a prob BOB, er, David,

 

Until I learn more about how to use this system and to post screenshots I guess this will just be a hazard bump.  Most all of this stuff is ahead of me on the learning curve.

 Thank  you for making a blind attempt anyway,

Taking a screenshot in Vista is the same as other Windows versions. Press the Print Screen button, then open ms-paint and paste the image. Save it as a jpeg to your desktop. Go to a file hosting site such as www.imageshack.us and use their facility to upload your image from the desktop. You can give a direct link to the hosted image in your next post.

Thank you "Greenman" for this information.  Will get to that later, have some HoneyDos to take care of at this time.

I have spent the last four hours attempting to get to the IS as well as register on their forum to see what may have gone wrong, still awaiting a reply.

Thank you for trying,

Looks to me like the folder window is larger than the view pane and not maximized.  I'd try using Window | Tile to bring the windows into the view pane and then maximize.

Mr. Stephenson,

Thank you for this tip, I had my screen setting to 1152x864 and have changed it to 1024x768 and it now fills the screen.  As I am on VistaHomePremium SP1 do not know where to find what you have referenced "Windows | Tile" I thought the tiling was only for DeskTop back ground images not for running programs.

 I actually prefer the 1152x864 because there is a greater amount of information displayed on my screen and the text is smaller or can be made smaller.

 Thank you for looking this over for me and giving a tip.  How was the screen shot or were you not really able to tell much from that?  I used one of the lower image sizes, would it have been better to use a little larger size?

Thank you again for reading my Roaster toastie,

As I am on VistaHomePremium SP1 do not know where to find what you have

referenced "Windows | Tile" I thought the tiling was only for DeskTop

back ground images not for running programs.

The Windows | Tile is on the Pegasus Mail top level menu.  Your graphic did not show the entire top of the current window so I suspect some of it is out of the view pane. I also suspect that the current window is not maximized based on your graphic.

See what I mean about NOT every knowing or even using the full features of Pegasus?  There are so many I will maybe, if lucky, can make a dent in their use.

 I will post another copy of the screen print at this level of 1024x768 and another at the one I prefer 1152x864 and a higher resolution.

It is still with a small gap along the right side even with it set to full page not with the "Caption Buttons" within the lower area.  They in line with MENU, on the same level.

If the folder window is maximized or tiled then you will not see anything around the edges.  The problem is you are not seeing the top of the folder window (not the WinPMail window, the preview mode folder window in the WinPMail window) and so you cannot even select the option to maximize the window. 

Here's what the folder preview mode should look like when maximized to fill the WinPMail window.

And here's what it looks like when the folder preview mode window is tiled to fully fill the WinPMail window.

Mr. Stephenson,

Here is the link for my 1152x864 and I had my mouse on the right side where the gap is and was showing a double headed arrow, did not come out in the ScreenShot.  I have looked at these pics and in the area below the ToolBar where the Preview screen of messages is where there seems to be a small problem.

Thank you for reviewing and commenting on my problem,

Note the difference between what you are showing and the two WinPMail images I provided. My display is running at 1280x1024.

Mr. Stephenson,

I cannot see the images you provided, where are the links?

 EXCUSE ME, please?  I found what you were referencing, before my posts.  Yes I agree with you that is what they should look like, but; mine has that border on the right side that is not extended to the edge of Pegasus.  PLUS, when hovering my mouse of the edge that is on the Multi-Panel for viewing messages it turns into a double headed arrow.

Thank you for your patients,

This ERROR in my informing you of what I am using may have something to do with my difficulties.  I have run into some problems with Microsoft's software they provide that will not run on my system.
