Pegasus Mail Suggestions
A challenge !!!

This is the list of my suggestions for TOOLS -> OPTIONS. I think this part is more of a mess than the rest of the menu, and deserves special attention. It is clearly a heap of accumulations of new features over the time, and now deserves a serious synthetic overhaul.

In this list I have left aside all suggestions of addition or deletion. It is only a matter of rearranging what is already there. You will see that in the end GENERAL SETTINGS -> BASIC SETTINGS is almost empty. This is not a problem, because what I suggest here is by no means a complete solution. It is just a first step necessary to begin seeing what is where.

You will see too that USER INTERFACE has been dispatched between OUTGOING and INCOMING MAIL. I find it more elegant and functional.

I have also voluntarily left out the problem of TOOLS -> INTERNET OPTIONS, which make the menu even more confusing, but which brings the question of how to manage users and accounts, and hence deserves another discussion.

Finally, Happy New Year to you all.

I don't have much experience at this, and I'm not sure where this topic should come on the list, so I'll just add it at the end. It was a wish several of us expressed about a year ago.
