However, if one goes to the Sympatico site, the recommended configuration is:
Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
SMTP Server: smtphm.sympatico.ca
Port: 25 (or 587 if port 25 does not work)
Authentication required: Yes
TLS/SSL Required: Yes (select TLS if available, if not, select SSL)
This is exactly how I have configured Pegasus.

Then the next thing to do is turn on session logging and get on the line with them with the session log in hand and ask them what the error message means.
There has been much traffic and discussion on the DNSChanger Trojan (since last Oct?) could this be a factor? All heck will be breaking 2012-mar-08. Do a search for DNSChanger.
from a commandline type:
ipconfig /all<ret>
Near the end there should be one or two entries for DNS.
Here are some known hostile IP address pairs used by the DNS Changer malware:
64.28.176.1 - 64.28.191.254
67.210.0.1 - 67.210.15.254
77.67.83.1 - 77.67.83.254
85.255.112.1 - 85.255.127.254
93.188.160.1 - 93.188.167.254
213.109.64.1 - 213.109.79.254
Try using OpenDNS as your DNS host/source. Information can be found here:

This is the way is has always been and it's basically by design since a MBX type folder was never intended to be anything other than a means of move mail to and from UNIX type systems and Pegasus Mail. Since the new foldering system of v5.x is going to be very different than that of v2.0 type folders this will probably change significantly.

There are already lots of threads dealing with this issue, most notably .

Normal. The SMTP process is not an interactive protocol it just reads what to have in the password entry and sends it to the server. You need to manually enter the username and password in the SMTP security setup if you want to leave the POP3 setup password blank.
You are absolutely right. I don't know how the message window got located off the visibile screen, but after tiling them now when I open a message it it visibile on the screen. Everything is back to normal. Thanks very much. I'm glad the solution was (in hindsight) so simple.
Often it is due to an overlly large message on server. Try using File menu, Selective download to see if you can identify the overly large message and maybe to remove it. Does your ISP also offer a webmail interface you could use to try to view the overly large message in the queue?
Check Help, About, Info button display and compare with old setup you had before. It sounds as if the winpmfua.pm which holds the recently used messages is not being found now or else the the two check blocks for address book or recently used are unchecked in the new setup. Check Tools, Options and the messages and replies section down near the bottom to be sure both items are checked.
In a new default install the winpmfua.pm would be located in c:\pmail\mail\admin location which is the default home and new mail location also.
Can any of you please forward a "failing message" to <beta-reports [at] pmail.gen.nz> (either attached or as CNM-file from the new mail directory to be identified via Help => About Pegasus Mail => Info)? TIA
[quote user="ddmartin"]But if I resend this email to different mail client without editing, this word is correct.[/quote]
Please forward the CNM file to <beta-reports [at] pmail.gen.nz>: Copy the message to the new mail folder, right-click the message in the new mail folder to figure out the filename on the Message properties screen, open Help => About Pegasus Mail => Info to look-up the New mailbox location and attach the respective file to a message.
Both the attempt to send and then the POP collection failed after about 20 seconds - despite the Pegasus timouts being longer.
My attempts to connect to mail.cyberglobe.net via telnet produced varying results suggesting they either have a capacity problem or they are using software that limits the connection frequency from one IP address.
Since you say it "takes several attempts" but eventually works, my advice is to ask your mail provider if there are any limits on downloading/sending.
