Right click on the message in the folder listing and select properties.  Make sure that the message is not marked read-only.

[/quote]

That was it.  But I wonder how it got that way.  I have never used "read-only" and I don't believe I ever right-clicked on that message.  Does "read-only" ever get set spontaneously?
 

I did find the following help document at the Bitdefender website:

http://kb.bitdefender.com/KB151-en--Virus-scanning-from-command-prompt.html

Converting the info here to what's needed in the CmdLine= code isn't straightforward, but this is all that's available-- I did a LOT of scouring looking for this kind of information.  So any other BitDefender + Pegasus users can hopefully use this too.

I am looking for help to determine what might cause the error "451 Temporary local problem - please try later".  The last 2 mornings, we have received this error when sending an email to a distribution list.  As far as I can tell, the email does eventually get sent, but we normally don't see this type of error.

It's the SMTP host on the receiving end saying it's got some sort of problem receiving your mail.  Probably running into a Graywall since this is typically the error message you will get.   

[quote user="chriscw"]I have recently been working on a company wide signature to be used in Pegasus Mail which include our company logo as a GIF file.   It seems to work well except that some clients noticeably Thunderbird just display a box with the word graphic instead of the company logo.   It even works OK with Outlook so I am not quite sure why we have this problem.[/quote]

If you look at the raw source of an HTML message with one of these signatures in it, you'll see that Pegasus is sending the image with a Content-Type of application/octet-stream.

I don't know for sure, but I think this is why Thunderbird won't display the image inline -- it doesn't like the MIME-type. It doesn't seem to bother other mail user agents, but Thunderbird apparently only treats images at images if they're sent with a MIME-type of, for example, image/jpeg.

Hi

I am using Pegasus Mail Version 4.41

When printing out an email , can it print out the attachement file names (if any exist) on top of the page like Outlook Express does

[/quote]

Nope, there is no way to get it to print out the attachment names as well.

Hi,

I just changed to an Asus board P5B P965 with onboard Realtek RTL8111B - Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet. Sending E-Mails a bit longer I also got the Socket read error 2746. I tried to disable the "Checksum Offload", but nothing changed. To solve the problem I disabled the whole onboard Ethernet (Realtek RTL8111B) and put a PCI-based Netgear inside. Now it works, also I am interested in using the onbard-ethernet.

Niels

OK, glad it's now working. :)

Resolved!

And thank you so much. Being a bit computer

literate, I tried all of the usual clicks and copy techniques but my

older version of pmail just did not allow it. I just upgraded to 4.41

and it works like a charm.

 Gotta admit that I would not use

any other email program and I continue, after fifteen years of computer

diagnostics and repair,, to recommend Pegasus to all of my customers!

 Regards,    Dustoff

I do this often.  Just have Pegasus Mail insert the signature in the reply (Tools -> Options -> Signatures, check "Add this variant upon message creation" near the bottom of the options page), then you can cut-and-paste the signature up where you want it.

Or you can use the glossary method.

This issue still persists in 4.52. Every time I click the check/send mail button the handles count increases by 6 and the thread count by 1. Checking with Process Explorer it shows me, that on each click it adds 4 unnamed event handles and 2 thread handles to the newly created thread. The trace of the threads, that are being leaked are looking like this:

hi, i'm a brandnew user of p mail (fantastic program !) but i'm experiencing this problem : i configured that p mail has to preserve a copy of my mail on the pop-server (because i want to read my mail also on other computers), but everytime i open the program and p mail starts to download from the pop3-server, he downloads also previously downloads so i get double or triple or more of the same e mails in p-mail; how can this be avoided ?

thanks in advance

1.    Go to File | Network configuration | (Receiving)POP3.

2.    Highlight the POP3 configuration file of interest and select edit.

3.    Unselect "Delete retrieved mail on host".

4.    Select "Download controls" tab and select "Download only unread mail "

Now only unread mail will be retrieved.  It will take a lot longer if you never delete your mail on the POP3 host.

 

Thank you Thomas for a long answer!

I also guessed that Content Control is checking (only) the "readable" form of the message (and with that the tags that contribute to it), athough checking the html tag itself does not fit into that.

It is possible that the person who wrote Content Control simply decided not to check (many) other html tags in order to speed things up.

I think that it would be a good thing to check also the html tags that usually contain information about the rest of the html document (at least !doctype and meta tags) because they very often contain telltale signs of spam. It could be done as one of the "Specialized Content Control Tests". For example a new test named "HTMLTag" with parameters for a html tag name and a string to search for.

I would like to copy and paste, or move, long lists of addresses

from distribution lists to address book or back. It would also be

convenient to copy just the addresses from either to paste into a word

or text document. Is there any way I can do this? I have ver. 4.31 but

am about to upgrade to 4.41.

 Thanks.

[/quote]

Copying the addresses from the addressbook is no problem, it's simply a drag and drop or a selection from an addressbook.  Going from a dist. list to an addressbook is more difficult and what I do is import the dist. list PML file into Excel  put it into the format required and import it back into an addressbook.
 

Thanks. Fortunately the drive letter was the same on both PCs, and it seems to be working fine now on the new PC. :)

[quote user="slanoue"]

I recently set up a new Pmail on my new laptop. I don't know if I did something wrong with my configuration or not, or how to fix it. I am downloading Gmail with POP. It leaves some messages on the Gmail website. They seem to be ones with a lot of pictures.  How do I fix this? Is it the part where it says "do not download any messages larger then x byes"? If so, what should it be set to. Right now it is at 100000.  This is in the settings for retrieving POP3 mail (Download controls).

Thanks!

Change that 100000 to zero and you'll get all your mail.  You are limiting mail to 100K and very few graphics are less than 100K.

Yes it's possible. Go Tools -> Identities -> add (see the help there) and create an identity for each "address" (or person/function) you want to be.

Now when replying to a message, just choose  the identity you wish.

You can even automate that by creating a folder for the messages from each identity, create a filter rule to move the messages into that folder and in the right mouse of each folder set the identity to use to the one you want.

That worked like a charm. Many thanks.

Your problem isn't with Pegasus Mail - it's something at a lower level. Error 276B is the code for "WSASYSNOTREADY". Here's the description from the WinSock error reference:

-------------------------------------- cut here --------------------------------

WSASYSNOTREADY (10091) Network

subsystem is unavailable

Berkeley description: No equivalent.

WinSock description: The WinSock implementation cannot

function at this time, because the underlying system it uses to provide

network services is currently unavailable.

User suggestions:

• Check that the WINSOCK.DLL file is in the current path

• Check that the WINSOCK.DLL file is from the same vendor as your

  underlying protocol stack. You cannot mix and match (WINSOCK DLLs must

  be supplied by the same vendor that provided your underlying protocol

  stack).

• You cannot use more than one WinSock implementation simultaneously.

  If you have more than one WINSOCK DLL on your system, be sure the first

  one in the path is appropriate for the network subsystem currently

  loaded.

• Check your WinSock implementation documentation to be sure all

  necessary components are currently installed and configured correctly.

-------------------------------------- cut here --------------------------------

I'm sorry I can't elaborate much on this, but all Pegasus Mail is doing is reporting an error occurring at a lower level - it's not actually causing the error itself.

About the only thing I can suggest you try is to go into Tools|Options, select the "Advanced" page, and in the group of controls labelled "Load Windows Internet Services (WSOCK32.DLL)", change the setting from "on demand" to "always" or vice-versa.

Cheers!

Hi all !

Well, although I checked my filtering rules before posting on the forum, I decided to give it another try since there was little chance of any kind of corruption in the filtering features of my dear Pegasus Mail. Note that this was the first suggestion of David, and it proved that I indeed put a rule that was not properly written, and here it is for the next idiots like me who should think deeper before crying out to the wolf : it is an expression based rule and it was of this form "if the headers contains *[special offer]* then move to folder X". Of course the error is in the use of "[]". Also, it is plainly trivial now that my problem had nothing to do whatsoever with Vincent's plug-in, it just happened that I updated the plug-in and put the new rule in the same period ... bad luck I guess.

Bye !

Ginhead.

Hi Peter,

Thank you.

I can dowloand the messages using Netscape Messenger 4.8 and Thunderbird so the messages download. I've followed others instrcutiuons re: waht to input inot the POP3 Receving Mail and SMTP Outgoing Mail but it doesn't download the messages for soem reason. It says it's connecting the mail server but it never downloads.

I imagine it's the Settings but 2 Pegaus users said they were correct so I'm baffled.

I appreciaite your help and suggestions.

It's not the settings within Pegasus mail you have to work with.  It's never able to connect to the POP3 host.  You have to find out why your system is not allowing Pegasus Mail to connect to the outside world so it can connect to the POP3 host.
