If you highlight the entire address and right click you do get a context menu. If you just right click the underlined portion of address and do what it says and open in browser don't you get a new mail message preaddressed? If you just double click on the underlined address don't you get a new mail message preaddressed? [/quote]

This even works if you simply click at any place in the yellow field. Apart from that there was no criticism in my statement, I simply stated that it works differently than before. Likewise, I did not say that there is no way to handle it in the new manner.

With a new TER used and dirrerent .dll I would expect some differences between 4.61 and 4.62. [/quote]

Why this expectation? It used to work perfectly before and I do not see any reason why such functionality should be limited in newer versions.

"IOW: Yes, it's expected to not close if you return 1 in response

to WM_FM_CLOSE. My suggestion would be to post a WM_CLOSE message (or

issue a PostQuitMessage() call?) to hWndPmail after resetting the

WndProc which would allow Pegasus Mail to finish the WM_FM_CLOSE

processing after resetting the WndProc and then start over with closing

the main window."

That was very nearly my workaround.  After restoring the original window process (and before returning 1 from WM_FM_CLOSE) I PostMessage(hWndPmail, WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_CLOSE, 0) .

Thanks.

I have big problems (V4.62 / Win XP) when I forward a message with the option: "Forwarding with editing". Lots of messages have problems. In many cases parts of the text are out of the visible area and / or the message formated, that you can not read it any more. The original messages are always shown well without any problems (with IERender and bearHTML)

I've done some limited experimenting with similar HTML messages and it appears that the message remains intact after forwarding with editing even though PMail's editor displays it badly. After adding some text comments at the beginning, I forwarded the messages to myself. After making the POP3 and SMTP round trip, the messages were quite legible in PMail's reader ( both BearHtml and IERenderer). We may be able to successfully forward with editing even though the messgage looks quite 'gruesome' in the editor. Forwarding with the original message as an attachment may be another option.

Hopefully, the development folks will be able to find a better resolution but it may take some time.

That address has not changed as far as I know.

Start with settings in Tools, Internet options, Receiving, and Edit. Help shows:

Delete mail from host once it has been successfully retrieved  If you check this box, Pegasus Mail will delete the host's copy of each mail message it successfully downloads, which will prevent it from being presented to you again the next time you retrieve mail. Leaving this box unchecked tells Pegasus Mail to leave the mail on the host even if successfully downloaded. Mail left on the server will be retrieved every time you download mail. 

That did the trick.  Thanks

Copied entire subdirectory over to a different thumb drive (on a good machine away from home)

Came home, plugged in the *COPIED* version; i.e., on the different thumb drive.

Ran Pegasus.

Works fine.

Same thing, apparently, with OpenOffice.Org app.

A friend and Expert in bugs and support has suggested that I use ChkDsk

I'm wondering how much effort I want to put into this.

Obvious solution appears to be

1. Go to other machine
2. Make mirror copy of thumb drive
3. Reformat misbehaving drive
4. Put stuff back on it
5. Use it again

I still wonder what is causing this. Zero clue

Pretty obvious to me that this is something in hardware, or some strange-o in the OS

Whatever, I can use Pegasus anywhere now; which is what I've been after for weeks and months.

Someday, most [or all] apps will be like this; where you can run them from your own tiny storage gizmo. I really like this way better

[quote user="Eshtaol"]

when I check host for new mail it says (at bottom) "connecting to outgoing.verizon.net"

Can't figure what's wrong

[/quote]

Looks like you have the incoming (POP3) and outgoing (SMTP) servers in the wrong definitions.

When you check for new mail you should be connecting to the POP3 server "incoming.verizon.net".

First off, cancel all interest in this; it's not a bug.  It's most probably a virus in action. (I just edited the original post to reflect the bogus nature of my false report.)  No clue why it would attack Pegasus and not, hmm, OpenOffice.Org or whatever other freeware apps I'm running off the stick. But for whatever reasons, Pegasus is the victim. Duh.

Secondly, sorry for any confusion. Step #2 in the list is what happens after the USB stick is plugged into the port; i.e., the little window opens and asks what you want to do.

Now, to hunt the virus.

Hmmm, any clues on that and I'll be grateful.

It so happens that I've paid for 3 copies of Norton 360, and we're only using 1 of them. I wonder if it would be worth it, or if that would only exacerbate my problems.

 Whatever, whatever, thanks for the response. As you can imagine, I'm highly annoyed by this. I'm trying to figure out what on earth could have happened. I highly suspect some sort of hardware (possibly firmware in the stick) error in this.

Whatever, thanks for your input.

The install ran like clockwork. Problem fixed.

 Thank You!!!!!!

Thanks Jim!  Is there some reason we need to reindex the address book in order to edit an entry, or is that a bug?  ...Steve

[/quote]

Not really sure, Steve. Perhaps one of the folks closer to the developer(s) could answer that.

Jim

I have found the problem. I had the option under Message Reader for showing the fancy version if a choice exists set to Off, ie always show the Text version first. With this option not set the default when forwarding also became Text Only.  Very confusing!

[quote user="Vincent Fatica"]

OK, thanks.  That works.  Is it new?

[/quote]

New in versions after 4.41 so has been around for a while now. Other changes and additions to Help also, some added in 4.61 like changes/additions to the Glossary function etc.. Be to read the What's new section of 4.61 and in 4.62 soon.

It worked! Thanks a lot!

Like you, I thought that the chances were slim, but fortunately I was wrong. I am also pleased to see that the html pages seem to be rendered faster than on XP. Or maybe I am just biased.

[quote user="dlt123"] It may be, but I doubt it, that Pegasus may not be compatible with my mail company... Frontier.com...

[/quote]

I found the Frontier setup page for Pegasus users. So Pegasus will/should work with Frontier. I assume you have set up your SMTP as per this page.

This link came from this page.

Interestingly, others struggling with Frontier. One solved it by following the Frontier setup page. I hope you have similar luck.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the hint. It works. After re-indexing all duplicated entries are gone.

But does Pmail holds a separate local index of the system address book? I thought that all address books are being red on start of Pmail.

Thanks for that perhaps this is the problem as this user is just about the only one here still using IE9.  Hover as far as I know none is the emails he is having trouble with have any hyperlinks in.

 I will try this on his system and see if it fixes the problem. 

[/quote]

It does not matter whether the user uses IE9 or whether another browser is set as system default. If IE9 is on the system they need to update ierenderer or disable it and use BearHtml. Some have said that is not enough and even if they never  use IE9 if it has been added to their system and it never downgrades or dissappears. Just i[date of ierenderer fixes things whether or not they intent to use it as their default renderer. Machines that did not allow the optional update or XP machines are not effected because the XP ones can't  possibly load or use IE9 and IE8 is newest they can have on their system.

On the Download Controls tab, there is an option "Download only unread mail (i.e. new since the last connection)"

I'm assuming this is the option you are talking about. If it isn't, then I suggest you look at this one.

Cheers

Guten Tag Micheal, und danke:

Well, your solution worked for *that* problem, but made the mail program close down and when reopened it had that autosaved message problem that I asked about yesterday - so I'd guess these may all be related?

I'm not sure if you'll get this message if I mark the message resolved, so if you can, please do so - if not I will try to get some time later today to do it.

thanks again,

~m
