When the hierarch.pm file is the not available to it's open exclusive call, Pegasus Mail will build a new one in memory using the PMM/PMI files in the home mail directory as a source. On the closing it will write these to a replacement hierarch.pm file. The  hierarch.pm, when re-built by Pegasus Mail though does not contain any of the trays since they are only shown in the hierarch.pm file.  

The only way to restore the trays, other than manually, is using a backup copy of the file.

I copied the whole kit and kaboodle to a storage drive, it should  not have the locks or permissions that the Vista has (Home Premium BTW) Still no joy.  Next wonderful step will be to reinstall WPmail.

Hi, all I have is the .wab file I saved but there is no OE in Windows 7, so I have no way to convert it. I'll look up the program Dawn that someone else mentioned.[/quote]

There is a replacement for OE on the Microsoft website called 'Windows Live Mail'.  It will import OE .wab files and then export them as csv.

is it possible to send email from external programs using pegasus mail.

 Yes, but I do not do it.  If I want to send mail from a program I use a commandline mailer like Blat!. 

As for the example shown, I would use WinPMail's mail merge using the Excel data as the source file to send personalized messages to each user.  The file would need to be saved as tab-delimited text, but the whole process is quite simple and you can actually verify what you are sending before it is sent.  Imagine what would happen if this VBA code slipped a cog and sent the wrong data to the members of the staff!

Thank you for the information, I've already saved it to a file for future use...I appreciate the help![:)]

I think you are refering to my SendDoc macro, available at:

Can anyone shed any light on the meaning of the above?[/quote]

Thanks. Implicit format choice is kind of unusual to me though... But thanks.

Chris,

If Pegasus Mail works fine, there is no need to copy the files from the Programs-directory from your backup-destination.

Web account?

Am I right in thinking that you have a webmail account that also lets you submit and receive via SMTP and POP/IMAP and that you have configured Pegasus to do so? Have you confirmed whether you can use this account via its web interface? At least we could then work out whether the account itself has a problem or the SMTP/Pegasus side of things is the issue.

sorry sharkfin for foolish question.
now i understood you.

Thanks for the clarification

The rejecting server should report it in the reply.

You can at least tell which domain it was for, by the servername(s) in the headers.

Yes thank you. I tried changing my charset and sent a test mail and now it is working...

That's a bit of a pain but I'll try it out bye-n-bye when I have a few vacuous moments inbetween emails. Thanks for the tip.

The Virscan.ini must be in either the same directory as the Pegasus Mail EXE or in the directory pointed to by NewMail (see Pegasus Mail Help/About then click info....

Many thanks, Steffan, it now works perfectly! A shame the advice isn't in Pmail "Help".

Cheers - & Merry Christmas!!!

I'm just throwing a few ideas in here because there's not much info there and nobody else has responded yet.

"Just about any message" - so not ALL messages then? Can you identify any common features between messages in the two groups (HTML/rich text messages, attachments, size, sender...)?

Alternatively, will it crash on any message given the right circumstances (second message opened in the session, preview mode switched on...)?

Have you checked for disk errors? Perhaps there's a bad sector and corrupted files.

Hi Steffan

I converted the pegasus mail addressbook to .csv format and imported to yahoomail

it worked.

Thanks for the guidance

I don't know what kind of network you have (workgroup or other) but if you have somewhere a dns (it's the case if you have a windows domain) it's easier to link the ip address to a domain name (ie smtp.mydomain.com or pop.mydomain.com), so you have just to declare these names in the pnd files and if one day you need to change their ip address you'll just have to modify your dns entries.

Just one final thing on this thread. Bearhtml printing does have a Preview mode, that is described in the Bear help file.  This will allow you to see what is going to be printed before wasting unnecessary paper etc. To enable preview mode, add a line in Bearhtml.ini that says:  Preview=yes
