Oh no I got it wrong i was using http://www.canyouseeme.org/ port test it said timeout but It doesn't necessairly mean I'm getting blocked on neither ports. Gonna do some experimenting later right now my school math test comes first.

Thanks a lot, that helps.  Now if i can just figure out how to send for a domain without entering all the user email addresses.

AFAIK Pegasus supports only tab-separarted files.

Do import an addressbook, click on the addressbook icon. 

Now you should see a new window and a new entry in the menu bar, called addressbook.

Click on this entry and click on File import.

Thanks again!

Terry.

 I'd be happy to forward this to you  for more study if you'd like.

Probably not necessary, I suspect that these headers were part of the HTML message body and they also had some hidden formatting crud like like line breaks that you were also trying to delete. One way to handle that is to use a CTRL+Y to delete line-by-line instead of trying to select a lot of lines to delete. Might still crash but you'll have a better chance to make this work.

Interestingly if I hit reply and then CTRL+J, it uses the smaller font.

If I hit reply, then "space," and then CTRL+J, it uses the larger font.

I just discovered that....probably why I gave up on the CTRL+J fix a loooong time ago!!

(Is that a bug?)

No bug at all.  The CTRL+J reformats a paragraph, if there is nothing to reformat it does nothing.  Type something first and  then hit the CTRL+J and you'll see the effect of reformatting and changing the font to the default font.

Pretty interesting....I just have to remember to hit Crt+J before I start a second paragraph.

 Thanks for all of your help!!!!!

How to configure PMail to try the other defenitions?

You cannot.  You must disable the definition that is not working and it will use the next one in line.

Problems now seem to be sorted

Thanks to all who contributed

 Is there an easy way to do this?  I've looked at the address book files, and they are not simple ascii files.

You can extract the addressbooks to a comma delimited file, import them into Excel to combine and sort, and then save to a comma delimited file to import into a new book.  Might not be real easy but it works.

If you do not have Excel you can do the same thing with Open Office and it's free.

I suggest you look at the font you are using to display the message. As you are trying to display Utf-8 streams, I suggest you select font MS Arial Unicode as your display font (while looking at the message, click the lowercase "f" on the menu bar and select the mentioned font.).   It displays fine for me too.

Hope that helps

on mercury mail server I setup a global rule to send email from a specific user to his secratery.  The rule has the to & cc fields checked & the match specifies the name without the domainas in jsmith and I have tried either foward or copy to , which is the domain hosted by the mercury mail server.  The mail do not seem to get sent to jane.

1) how do I correct this

Don't use a filter, use a FORWARD file in the users mail directory that forwards the mail to the secretary.  Mail forwarding is handled by a file called FORWARD in the user's mail directory.  FORWARD can contain the following lines.

Forward-To: <address>
Deliver-Also: <Y> or <N>

The <address> is a single address to which the message should be forwarded.  While each Forward-To: line can only contain a single address, a user's FORWARD file can contain multiple Forward-To: lines, which will result in the message being forwarded separately to the address specified in each line.

You must turn on this capability in Configuration | Mercury core | Advanced "Allow file-based forwarding specification using FORWARD files".
 

Allow file-based forwarding specification using FORWARD files  Autoforwarding is normally a restricted feature in Mercury and Pegasus Mail, controlled in NetWare mode by the system administrator. In non-NetWare modes, and in NetWare mode if the administrator wishes to open the feature up, you can check this control to enable an alternative autoforwarding feature. When this control is enabled, Mercury will look for a file called FORWARD in the user's new mail directory. If it finds a FORWARD file, it will open it and examine it for lines specifying how forwarding should be done. For the format of the FORWARD file, click here. Enabling this feature can create a security issue, since it is possible for another user with write access to a user's new mail directory to create a "fake" FORWARD file and forward the user's mail without his or her knowledge. In environments where a little trust is possible, however, it's a very useful feature.

 

2) is there a log which shows the filter running against the inbound mail

Nope but Window | System messages will show the filter action.

3) I have tried the enable /disable button, but I dont see if it is enable or disabled

The filter will be grayed out if disabled. 

 Thank you

I resolved!

The problem appear when I save some msg in Thunderbird and move the .eml in the MAIL directory, but I change only the extension (to .cnm) and not the name.

Thunderbird (for the name) use the subject. When I rename the " trad. Welkowitz.cnm" as P0000..cnm all work.

Thanks and sorry, Germano

I feel increadibly stupid. Today I returned the laptop to my colleague, who put it back on its docking station. He turned on the laptop, started Pegasus and clicked on the "Add" button, and up came the small window. I got mad. 

In fact, he's using a wide-screen external monitor. Whatever else I did in Pegasus, when using the Laptop stand-alone, appeared on the screeen. Just the small windows to add folders showed out of the viewport and there was no indication that something could be "somewhere" out of the field.

Thank you very much for this help !

Probably because some of the folders have internal IDs identical to the original folders.  Here's a utility you might want to try:

PMRestArch - Pegasus Mail Restore Mail Folder Archives:
http://www.lexacorp.com.pg

Usage:
PMRestArch SourceDir DestinationDir

Description:
Pegasus Mail cannot display two mail folders with the same internal ID even if they are in separate mailboxes. Mail folders also have to be Read-Write.
      
This causes problems when trying to view mail folders which have been archived by copying them to backup media.

This utility:

1.  Copies all .PMM and .PMI files in the source directory to
    the destination directory and renames them as BAKxxxxx.PMM
    and BAKxxxx.PMI.

2.  Ensures that the resulting file is Read/Write.

3.  Creates a different internal unique ID for each file.

Once you have run this program to restore archived folders to a directory you can attach that directory using the Pegasus Mail 'Add mailbox to list' option and access the archived folders in this new mailbox.

That worked. I had to change the server from what has worked for years to another that means the same, or so I thought.

Fixed now.

Thomas: Again, thanks for your suggestions. No I wasn’t able to navigate to the right that far. There was no horizontal scroll bar in the subwindow.

Your first suggestion got me thinking though and I noticed that one of the target lines you identified had some unusually large numbers in it:

V4FP-2=265,50,915,429,"21249,21249,21249,0,21249"

I thought these might be width definitions, so I created another account and ripped these numbers from it:

V4FP-2=265,50,907,429,"100,151,94,256,34"

And now all seems to be well.

I wish I knew what caused the problem in the first place. Should I discover anything I’ll post it fyi.

Thanks again, Paul  (pblom@biodatamanagement.com)

Thanks for your reply.  I did changed the "alias" name and that resolves the issue.  BUT it does seem logical [to me] that one person with same name and several different e-mail address's in there own separate list should be able to receive without going to the trouble of using a different name in each list.  I am content to let the issue end here.  Again thanks for advice.

 

Is there any way I can mimic the behaviour of pconfig.exe on my 64 bit OS?

Yes, make the settings on the XP machine and then copy the pmail.cfg file to program directory on the Vista machine.

Clearly, I should be perusing the manual rather than just skimming...

 Thanks, gentleman, for your replies.

Do I use the .pml  name or the List Title e.g. newtown.pml or NewtownMembers?

Copy the PMM/PMI file pairs in your HOME mail directory to a different directory.  You can find your home and new mail directories using Help | About Pegasus Mail | Info.
