[quote user="oskar270"]Also I created a new address book and import the .PMR file created by Dawn and this didn't work either.[/quote]

You imported PMR? PMR is the addressbookfile so simply copy it to your mailboxdirectory and open Pegasus. If DAWN doesn't create the indexfile PM! you will have to reinde the folder in Pegasus.

[quote user="idw"]Did you forget about the (September 2011), maybe? And there's currently another interim update (v4.63) in preparation, see David's news from November, 30th ...[/quote]

Thanks for the heads-up re David's Nov. 30 news. The main page I check only shows a Aug. 2010  Dev News Page Update as being new (under NewsFlashes!) and the "updated November 30" below does not mention the year. So it wasn't obvious that anything new was added since Sept. 2011 with the 4.62 release.

 While I appreciate "maintenance releases that fix numerous small problems" I keep hoping to see v5.

[quote user="FJR"]Not possible and not needed. If you use IE-Renderer you may resize font view with CTRL+PgUp/PgDn or users of other mailclients like Thunderbird or Outlook with CTRL++/- like in the webbrowsers (IE, Firefox). And that's the answer for your last question too.[/quote]

IERenderer's configuration dialog allows you to set a default zoom value as well ...

An Html message composer should try, where possible, to not hard code font sizes or fontnames. As they have no way of knowing what default sizes and names are set up by the receiver. Also if hard coded, there is no flexibility in changing the font information. For instance most browsers allow for a user to increase or decrease font size on the fly with a keystroke or mouse button.

IMHO  do not know of anyone who writes messages using CSS, and it is also unlikely anyone, except for web server admins to be writing text in Html markup tags or CSS markup.

well put. ( not excel, open office calc)

 I do not want to point to and click a record, and be taken to a different record.

If I went into the window and nothing was selected, I would like that better.

Thanks,

I deleted the .PMC and PHC file connected with the inbox, and solved the issue. [:)]

Deleting the cache via tools did not work, because PM crashes when I connected to the mailbox, and it never gets a chance to disconnect and exit in a controlled manner.

 

Sincerly,

Tangofil

 After my experience this morning I can safely say I will never use nor recommend this program again.

Aw bummer, then you will probably not be interested in hearing about pop3 filter rules and their use in combination with distribution lists.

Cheers!

Well, me and my mouth!

It all failed when I tried to run it from my portable drive, on a Vista box.   It seems Peg can't find the one and only user, as it's asking all the configuration questions you have to go through on a (normal) first install.

I did launch winpm-32 with the -roam option.   It seems Vista obviously does things differently.

I'll have more info later, no time right now.

Dave.

Hello FJR,


Thomas Stephenson Sr adviced to create a new printer and when setting up the printer tell it 
which tray to use. The user then selects the printer set to print using the specific tray.

This solution works. Thanks all, for your participation.

I'd recommend against turning this back on since this is not normally necessary and if it is you have a whole lot more problems on your system than sending a virus.  In any case this sort of scanning causes more problems than it solves.

I assume you are talking about SMTP authentication since any receiving will not be causing your mail not to be sent.  In addition, if you have a failure of authentication then it will be seen as you send.

This also should not have caused any problem that you would not see immediately upon sending.

If mail is being accepted by your ISP without error and is not received by a different host I suspect your are being caught in some sort of spam trap where the mail is quietly deleted when caught rather than being bounced back at the SMTP host.  This is typical since most spam traps that catch the mail after receipt by the SMTP host, they almost never bounce the mail back to the receiver since the addresses in the mail body are generally faked.

Is there anything new about these problems I am having reported ago?

 

It is still a problem, especially when you use Pmail with the -roam option on different computers and start it from removable devices.

Pmail V4.62 / LibTidy V1.0.5 / Bear and Renderer newes versions.

 I had the same trouble as you are explaining after installing an updated version of Acrobate.

Open Pegasus and click on the tools menu. Click options and go to the content viewer.If Acrord32.exe is listed DELETE IT. Than click the add button and add ( .PDF ) and click apply. Highlite .PDF and click edit. In the define attachment viewer take this action select Let Windows choose and run an appropriate application. Click OK, APPLY and than OK again. This worked for me and brought pegasus mail back the way it was before. I can click the open button on the .PDF file and windows opens it or I can click the .PDF file and it opens. This should correct your problem.

When Pegasus asks for a user it means that it can't find any.  This PMAIL.CFG files contains the paths to the home and new mailbox folders (usually the same) where PMAIL.USR is read for user information.  I certainly appears that Pegasus can't access the root mailbox folder.  Check permissions. 

What OS are you running?

What is the path to WINPM-32.EXE?

What is the path to the MAIL folder?
