Known problem when sending via the internal mailer;  does not happen when sending via a Mercury queue.  That said, you might just try using TinyURL anyway since you cannot be sure the receiving system could handle this long URL anyway.

Yes there is a known problem with multi-column tables drawn by using CSS rather than standard html tables. There is no immediate hope for a fix, but as there is a simple bypass by registering with Yahoo to use Traditional format, you should get a better display.

Works great!  I had a problem at first, because I had "Use for all outgoing mail, regardless of address selected" under Tools/Internet Options/Sending (SMTP).

[quote user="RAClyde"]Thank you! It worked on my computer. I have Acrobat 7 Professional - might that be the reason it worked? Or should I hold my breath every time I try this?

You currently do not have any broken programs on your system however if it ever crashes when working the file system without an error message think about what you've just loaded/upgraded on your system.

[quote user="Ellie Kennard"]I have a friend who has been using Pegasus Mail for a number of years and is now going over to Mac. She would like to know how she can get her existing email in some form on the Mac.[/quote]

Apple Mail on Tiger (OS X 10.4), the current version of OS X, stores mail in individual files; Apple Mail on earlier versions stores mail in a version of the Unix mbox format. Either client will import a file in mbox format.

Consequently, you can simply make a new mailfolder in Pegasus and choose "Unix format" when given the choice and drag all the mail you want to move to that folder inside Pegasus's GUI. You can then find the mbox file and hoik it out of Pegasus's directory.  (IIRC, Pegasus does give a .MBX file extension to it, so Start > Search should find it with a search term of *.MBX.)

Now move that file to the Mac on a USB memory stick (the Mac can read and write to FAT32 formatted sticks) and run the import wizard inside Apple Mail. There's a caveat: Apple Mail will be expecting to find the mbox file inside a folder; so make a folder on the Mac (e.g., on the Desktop), put the mbox file in that, and point the import wizard to the folder.

Hi

Is there a way to prevent simultaneous login of a client on the imap server?

Thanks

Hi Martin,

I just forwarded you two examples.  Fyi, I installed Asian fonts on the Windows 2000 systems.

Thanks

Dear Mr. Stephenson : 

Those 2 fields are :

1) directory path :

I type in (as example)  " D:\ ....\name of pegasus' user "

2)  name for mailbox in the folder listing : " bus staff "

Try keeping it simple.  Use an 8 character folder name and if it's a Pegasus Mail user enter the simple username.

Hi!

I love Pegasus, but, of course, I always want more from it...

I'd like to know if there is a way to personalize the "Check for overlooked attachments" feature.

I would like to be able to edit wich words does it look for (especially, to add spanish words...) and to configure how many lines does the program inspect.

Thanks a lot,

Julian (Buenos Aires, Argentina)

Hello,

I have the same problem. It's not possible to store an attachment,

or put an attachment to a mail. But it's possible to open it for

example with word or so. I had this problem some times ago.

I deleted a mail with an attachment and the problem was away.

At that time I was able to recognised the file which produces the

error, but this I don't know it, because the problem exists for a longer

time. Has anybody an idea to help me recognising the corruped file?

Regards

andime

thanks very much Thomas....Can't believe I missed seeing that!

I did what you asked me to do.

It does not work.

The new mailbox (the default mailbox = "my mailbox") was recreated on my laptop (same Pegasus v).

I transfer once more by copying the data to my laptop.

The new mailbox shows up but empty on Laptop's Pegasus. Only the default "new mail folder" appears. So the other data that do not appear  are present in the new mailbox when I check the new mailbox's content through Explorer.

What to do ?
 

I found out what the problem was. I had set the preferences to compact folders after deleting 24000 bytes. When I increased this to 2400000 bytes, the behaviour stopped and emails clear again in a flash when I delete them from my inbox.

Be aware that I have marked this problem as resolved and posted a more detailed and informative message on the issue under the subject:

The 160's are simply html blanks defined in the Windows 1252 character set.  The character set is selected in the Pegasus Mail menu Tools/General Settings/Advanced. There is a drop down list that selects the character set you want.  If you select Rich Text when composing or replyng to Html messages, this value is important, as it tells the recipient how to display text characters.  You also need to look in menu Tools/Options/Messages & Replies to make sure that Rich Text is checked, And also Tools/options/sending mail   the Generate multipart should be checked.

The "Change user" function is heavily deprecated now, and will vanish from the next version onwards: the mechanics of maintaining this function are just too hard with the burgeoning features in the program. I'm fairly sure that this function is either directly or indirectly responsible for some of the more difficult to track problems in the program, especially problems with HIERARCH.PM and folder index damage.

Instead, use the -MS commandline switch to start multiple Pegasus Mail sessions for each user you have. This is much the better way of doing things.

Cheers!

I think Pegasus can do what you want.

Pegasus stores new messages as *.cnm files in the mailbox directory. Other folders (i.e. copies of sent messages) are stored in compound files + indexes.

Therefore, if you would write a filter rule that moves all new mail where subject <> "specificsubject" to a 'to be read' folder, your separate program could check for new *.cnm files that are at least 1 minute old (give the rule some time to do its work).
Another option is to write a rule that appends the message to a specific file somewhere on your system. Which is best depends on how flexible your 'separate program is'.

Writing filter rules is very straightforward with Pegasus - give it a try.

I've been using, and promoting Pegasus since 1995 (using Windows - currently XP Professional SP2). 

Each time an update has been made available I've updated.  Problem is, although the version is listed as being what I have, the layout doesn't change and some of the features aren't available (I know this to be a fact because I've seen the layout and features available on new installations by other people).   It appears as if the original installation is still controlling what I can do and not do with Pegasus.

 I doubt this since I've been upgrading since running PMail for MSDOS and WinPMail v0.9 over the same setup and always have all of the features of the new system.  If the Help | About Pegasus Mail shows the current setup then you'll just have to make the changes as required in Tools | Options to bring them out.
 

I have decided to uninstall Pegasus and re-install the latest version HOWEVER, I'm concerned that by doing so I'll loose all my address books, my folders, my signature files, etc., and etc. so I'm very hesitant to do so.   Could somebody help me through this process so I don't loose what I need??

The way to do a reinstall without losing any data at all in to delete the PMail.ini, State.pmj and hierarch.pm and then re-install the program over the current version.
 

 
Thanks

Thanks, this worked perfectly. Should become part of the help (at least, in German it is not there).

There does seem to be a limit of 2GB for folder size. Could this be a possible solution?

Right click on the folder and select 'Information' will tell you the size of the folder.
