Thank you!!

There is a filter that allows you to print the message and if your fax system has a printer interface and you set that as the default in WinPMail then this should work.  You can also set the option to "Run a program" and this forwards the message to the program.  The program can of course do anything you want it to do as long as you are willing to write a program.

The filters can key on most anything in the message headers or body to cause a selective action. 

I use WinXP and Pegasus 4.41 without the cursor/focus problem you experience.

This may be a long shot. In Tools |  Options... | User interface | Reporting/logging  there is a checkbox controlling a "Telltale" notification about new email. Perhaps the telltale window steals focus from the active window? Unless there is a problem with the POP3 connection (in which case you

get an error dialog) the new mail notification would be a prime suspect. This is just my best guess, though, because I don't use the telltale window myself.

There's another ongoing thread about the font problem in Vista; I think maybe you already posted there.

Many thanks Thomas for your useful feedback!
Will explore your suggestions..

It will cause some inefficiencies in your transmission of data through the network/internet.

By the way, if the problem is in fact the NVidia NForce4 one that Thomas mentioned, you will likely see this error re-occur... it will be dependent on the message size being sent.

It is hard for me to believe the an MTU of 750 is proper for your setup.

You can figure out how to test it and optimize it for yourself using ping.

See the following for details:

I am just trying to follow along here, it would seem that the PMI file is an index and if it was corrupted you are suggesting that a blank index be copied into the folder and renamed so that the files can be re indexed again.  Is that about right ?

Nope, in this case the PMI folder was completely missing so the folder was not showing at all.  A corrupt index can usually be fixed via a folder right click "Reindex  folder" to rebuild the PMI from the messages in the PMM file.

Kindly send me a copy of a problematic message (email: irelam@telus.net)  or send me a screenshot of what you are seeing.

It would be useful to tell if the message is badly formatted.

[quote user="mjgdunne"]Hi i have just downloaded pegasus mail but i cannot set up my email accounts, i was told to go to tools, internet options but i do not know what details to put in. Any help would be appreciated.[/quote]

My not be able to use Pegasus Mail directly with either of these web mail systems.  Hotmail does not do plain POP3/IMAP4, the free yahoo does not either.  You might want to try MrPostman.

MrPostman is a java program that allows you to access Yahoo Mail, Hotmail and other
webmail services directly from your favorite mail client. 

It converts the web pages of your favorite webmail provider to e-mails and provides the
standard POP interface to your mail client (e.g. Outlook Express, Netscape or Mozilla Mail,
Thunderbird, Pegasus Mail). 

MrPostman is Free Software, released under the terms of the GNU Public License.

Currently supported webmail providers:

    * Hotmail
    * mail.com
    * Yahoo
    * gmail (Google mail)
    * indiatimes.com
    * juno
    * rediffmail
    * Gossamer mail

Thomas,

Wonderful - it works - thank you very much.
 

There is no spec for the hierarch.pm, it's not required since yuor not supposed to be working with it.  ;-)

[quote user="jbrowne"]

thanks Thomas.

appreciate your quick response.

does this mean that even a Pegasus xtension could not do it?

I would suspect that the only way an extension could do this is to create a tool to add the attachments and I'm not all sure that would be possible.  Most of the file operations are done with windows calls but the actual attachment is not added until you hit the send button.  You could create a User Defined Gateway to do this sort of process and then build you own program to text the total size of the PMX file that was created.  Really all you could do there though is to delete the PMX file and popup some sort of warning.  Way, way more trouble than it's worth.

On a right click, I see the same menu as Thomas.

I would install the Pegasus Mail program files onto the C: drive of the terminal server and then simply copy the PMAIL.CFG file from a user's PC to the terminal server.  They should all be the same, namely pointing to U:\PMAIL\MAIL. Since U: is a mapped drive that is different for each user (e.g. ), it will work perfectly fine as a single-user standalone environment to Pegasus Mail.  No other mailboxes will be viewable to the user in Pegasus Mail.  In setting it up like this, you should confirm that the new mail directory path and home mailbox path are listed in PMAIL.CFG as: U:\PMAIL\MAIL

If needed, you can use the PCONFIG.EXE utility that ships with the PMAIL/DOS product to change the paths as required.  Make sure there is not a "~8" or "~n" at the end of the paths.

[quote user="GSIB"]Thanks.  I am using Netware.   I add users with the PMail Config (P:\Pmail\nconfig.exe).   I have checked user settings, but see no way to change the name.

I do not do NDS.  I use bindery and so I use syscon.exe to change the username.  I just hit F3 when viewing the username to change it.  I suspect that there is something similar in NDS.  

I cannot even fully decode what you have provided using a Bas64 decoder.

thanks,

you are right, I found my first e-mail still sitting in the "queued-mail" - list, which can be reached under file/review queued mail ....

I don't have any folder for outgoing mail - should there be any?

finally: problem solved

Hi Paul,

 The problem I have is this is for a university project and so I really need to be looking to do it as a Daemon that I've written myself in order to gain academic credit.

 Since Thomas' last post regarding the QDF and QCF files I performed the following experiment:

 1.) I took my .dll and .ini file out and sent a message. I performed as it should and was successfully received by the local user and could be viewed in Pegasus. The content of the QCF files was:

 ST: R 000000000000 00 000001 000000 000000
FR:
DF: MG000002.QDF
FL: 0         
OS: 080423161112
BA: ali
ES: R 080423161112
RI: 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000
DI: --------.---
EA:

2.) After this I added my .dll and .ini file back in and restarted Mercury. I sent the same message but it was not successfully delievered to the local user. The content of the QDF file was identical (except for time stamps obviously) but the QCF file was different to the run previous:

ST: R 000000000000 05 000001 000000 000000
FR:
DF: MG000001.QDF
FL: 0         
OS: 080423160045
BA: ali
ES: R 080423160045
RI: 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000 000.000.000.000
DI: --------.---
EA:

Do any differences in the QCF files indicate why there would be an error in delivering to local users?

BIG HUGS FOR YOU!  Funny how if you never use something you forget that it is even there.  Thanks. I suppose I should go back and "fix" the pconfig file ...

 Um ....not getting it to work ... does Pegasus Mail need to be on the root of the removable drive?  Here is the current location of mine:

F:\_stored\PMail\Programs\winpm-32.exe

 Tried it both leaving the config file ..\mail\~8 and editing back to the original c:\pmail\mail\~8

I'll look to see if I need to use some other command line options as well.
