Hello

Thanks for that. As you say, attachments in the new mail folder can be deleted.

There are lots of pitfalls were Mercury/32 can loose the body. F.ex. if you have processing rules, filters, antiviral scans etc. You actually need to examine the flow of your own messages, one step at a time. You do this by pausing each server module, then examine the processed files after each module's processing.

Hello Peter in New Zealand,

It seems it's not possible to remove a photo within Pegasus Mail so delete or rename the picture in your Windows Explorer.

State.pmj is the file where display settings (among others) are stored.

I have problems where messages clearly marked by rules in the new mail filter are instead being ignored. I have very carefully order the rules and I mainly move mails directly to their appropriate folders, rather than have them all in the inbox. Most filters are based on the To address contents but I have found that its hit an miss whether the rule is observed or ignored. Has anyone else seen this?

Regards,

Adam

I've seen this happen to me and 99.9% of the time i find that I've done something wrong with the filtering.   If something is being missed I would recommend looking at the raw view of the message to see if there is something different about the trigger string.

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!

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.

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. :)

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.
