[quote user="Andrew Ampers Taylor"]I remember, a long time ago, David Harris writing that PMail would always be free as he believed in doing his bit to ensure that people all over the world could talk with each other through email

More and more third world countries have access to computers and a huge majority of these have Linux so the poorer countries can keep the cost down.

Alas, all these people cannot use Pegasus. But they can use Evolution and Thunderbird to name just two. So I guess it doesn't really matter in the grand order of things.

Not at all sure what you mean.  I, and many others, are using PMail and Mercury/32 with Linux daily.   Cost's nothing for PMail and nothing for Mercury/32 for personal non-commercial use.  Many, many of these Linux systems are using all sorts of free Windows programs and the free Wine make this possible in any Linux system.  If you really are on low end version of Linux then PMail for MSDOS works quite well in the Linux MSDOS emulator.

After more troubleshooting, it appears to be a bug in the newest version of the idwPGP-Frontend plugin, (v 6.1.0.0. from 11/2007).  Michael is a great guy and I'm sure it will get fixed eventually. From what I've gathered most people don't experience this problem.  Just wanted to post this in case someone has a similar problem and comes looking for the answer...

122.167.242.192 is on several blacklists - probably because it's a dynamic pool address from ABTS.  Your message didn't say which one.

What relay server are you using to send mail?  If it's an ISP, maybe they need you to authenticate.

Does it happen to all mail, or just to a particular address?

You are probably using multiple accounts.  The new version only allows this if you set it up that way when it is installed (according to the manual) and the default installation is single user only and cannot be changed after installation.

Isn't this a rather old thread? See my reply, and others, in the thread you created 2011-01-26:

The help files are very clear:

You have one identity and its POP and SMTP settings. You then create a new, second, identity (it can be based on an old identity, you select, so that you have some settings already arranged as you like). Everything can now be changed in the second identity and stay like that. Obviously it must have its own POP & SMTP settings, e-mail address etc.

Change from the default identity to the second identity, i.e. become it; select Internet Options... Add the address; on POP3 tab click Add then New, and remember to save the definition as something that can be recognised as related to identity B. Repeat for SMTP if necessary.

I have a single user setup, with several identities; it works very well.

I attached a picture where you can see the bug.

This behaviour does occur if you do the following things in three pane mode:

  1. Read a pure html-e-mail (in preview mode)
  2. Go to the next, previous or any other message (still in preview mode)
  3. Now drag the panes to make them smaller or bigger

The multiple borders have no negative side effect, but they don't look good. [H]

Another solution to be able to redefine mailbox path is to delete (or rename) the file pmail.cfg in the program folder. Next time you open Pegasus, it will ask you for your mailbox.

In my test case, yes I used Pegasus and no keywords weren't turned on.

 My question should be seen in a more general context, so considering other e-mail clients then Pegasus.

I think that maintaining a blacklist is a waste of time. Blacklisting services are well known to be inaccurate and problematic for entry removal.

You should trust your Spam detection engine (SpamHalter?). If your Spam detection engine causes false positives, it needs to be trained some more.  If the sender is coming from an IP address as apposed to a domain name, it is most likely to be a home PC or random IP address (Mail-bot). In either of these cases the spammer does not need or want a reply, and he/she will change sending address frequently.

I suggest you focus on a content detection scheme and possible use of whitelisting friendly domains.

I agree. Viruses are basically dormant in email messages until they are opened or saved, when the AV will hopefully detect them. There is no scripting language support in Pegasus Mail. So don't worry.
