Upgrade to v4.52 from v4.51

[quote user="Steve1966"]I am interested in learning more about Pegasus so can anyone explain where I went wrong with the upgrade and why it appears that the fresh install of v4.51 is different to the one I installed last year.[/quote]

Two issues to consider:

I tried to upgrade to v4.52 using the update download as recommended. It installed correctly but fell over when I tried to configure the user profile - I chose single user and the dialogue box disappeared but nothing happened. I have only now managed to get back to where I was a few days ago buy uninstalling and re-installing v4.51.

This process created some problems as the arrangement within the PMAIL folder seemed to have changed since I first installed the program last year. I made a copy of the old PMAIL folder as security before starting the upgrade and when I swapped the new install PMAIL folder for the old saved version the program would not start without asking for a user name. I combined the two folders together and it now works fine. It would seem that the original MAIL folder contained a RMT folder and the date files, the new install contained a pmail.usr file and a folder with the user name I set up during the install which contained the data files.

I am interested in learning more about Pegasus so can anyone explain where I went wrong with the upgrade and why it appears that the fresh install of v4.51 is different to the one I installed last year. 

Many thanks.
