I have 930 .pmm files with a total size of 28 gb.
Messages in the New Mail folder become invisible seemingly at random. But if I search for them with ctrl-f pmail finds them and tells me that they are in New Mail folder.

I have tried to move all the messages into a temporary folder and then moving them back into the New Mail folder. But then the missing messages cannot be found anymore at all.

Any ideas ?

Been some time when needing help as you guys have always been helpful so don't know if I went to right spot this time or not.

Simple question from this idiot.

Where do I go to increase time on sending documents? When sending my time always seems to run out on me w/o completion

As usual thanks in advance

Can somebody tell me where the Global Whitelist is located within Pegasus Mail, please?

I am aware I can see it by going to Tools/ Spam and content controls/Global whitelist, but I would like to be able to create a shortcut for it on my desk top, like I have done for the Black list at C:\PMAIL\MAIL\ADMIN\black.pml.

Thanks for any help,

Chris

Hi, I access my inbox from a few different appliances (Laptop, Phone, PC), so IMAP is preferred for this. However my email provider has a mailbox size limit and, so, I can't just keep all my emails that I do not want to delete. Once I have read them, I do file them away in separate folders, but these are part of the mailbox and, thus, still count to the size.

In a perfect world, is there a way I can have the inbox treated as IMAP (i.e. accessible to all appliances) but the other folders in my mailbox treated as pop3 (where I would be using my laptop to take them from the mailbox to store them so I don't have to delete them)? Or be able to select individual folders to be treated as pop3?

I have had it suggested to me about trying, once a month or so changing the setting to pop3 to download everything and setting it back to IMAP, but I would need to put everything that was in the inbox back in... Rather clunky.

Help pop-ups are no longer appearing as they should. When I pick a menu item (eg Specific Help) in the Help menu no pop-up appears. Another blank Pegasus tasks seems to open on the task bar called "Pegasus Mail Help System" but it is blank and won't open when I click on it.

I am running Windows 10, Pegasus 4.81

Using version 4.80 on Windows 11. Installed again on a new computer. Is there a setting where email will be deleted on the server if I delete it using PMail?

Hi, I deleted some large files in one mailbox and got a message saying to reindex it. However, reindexing then says the folder is open and has to be closed first. How do i do this?

I'm using Pegasus 4.81 which has been fine for many months. Opened it today and my POP, SMTP and sending identities have all gone. The messages and folders are still present, but the program is behaving as if I am a new user. It's changed the window setup and font sizes, etc. I'm not too bothered about the cosmetic changes, but how do I get my POP, SMTP and identities back? (I haven't done anything except go away for a week and the computer has been off. No crap cleaners or anything....). I do have a recent backup but don't know which files to copy across. Grateful for any help.

When I file or delete messages in my inbox it takes a long time to process them unless I turn off Windows Security virus checker. Surely the messages have been virus checked already when they were first downloaded so why does it need to do it again? If I do any more than a small amount of tidying up my mailbox I have to disable downloads and turn off real time virus checking temporarily, otherwise it takes forever. This is obviously not a good thing to do. Is there any way round this?

Hi Brian F.

No matter how many times I changed the POP3 and SMTP server names, I still can't send or receive emails. I checked the Event Viewer, Window Logs, but I couldn't find the Microsoft Windows TCP/IP folder. Anyway, since there are only five fields to fill by the user, it's not rocket science, and I don't think that the E-mail address, User ID, or Password are causing the connectivity problem. I think that the names I gave to the POP 3 and SMTP servers don't register with Pegasus server names, and I downloaded the email to my Windows 10 and Windows 11 laptops with the same result.
On the flip side, I downloaded G-mail, Frontier, Yahoo emails with no problems, worked on the first attempt, and I wasn't asked to name the incoming/outgoing e-mail servers, so probably that's why. So, sadly I'm giving up on Pegasus e-mail.

Hello:

I have been a Pegasus user for many years. all of my previous use of Pegasus was on various Windows platforms.

Very recently, I have managed to install an operating version of Pegasus 4.80 on my "new" installation of FreeBSD version 14.2, using a "helper" program named Mizutamari.

This program installs a working version of WINE, properly configures it, and makes the launching of Pegasus pretty much painless.

However, there are a few issues which we have not yet eliminated, the most annoying of which is that each time I close Pegasus, when I next launch Pegasus, the settings in the "Network Configuration" must be replaced/added.

So, my question is, how and where are these Network Configurations saved, then reaccessed, when using Pegasus on the Windows platform?

And, is it possible to write or copy a file containing these network configurations that Pegasus will read each time it is started?

Thanks Brian for your suggestions regarding my POP 3 issues.

I installed Pegasus e-mail, which was quite simple, but I get an error message when I try to download the messages, which states that "A network error occurred during connection to the host".
I have edited the POP3 tab several times to no avail. Any suggestions ?

Does anyone know if Pegasus will run on a computer with the Snapdragon X processor, instead of intel? (I'm looking for the lightest, reliable tablet, 12", that will run non-microsoft Windows programs--so far the best, as well as cheapest, I can find is the MS Surface, which is now AI-centric.)

Hi
I have PM Version 4.80.1028 on Windows 10 Pro 64bit.
From yesterday is opening folder COPYSELF very slow.
It take about 10 min.
Whole PM is blocked this time.
I see that folder COPYSELF has 64004 messages.
File with this folder had size 337 MB.

When I delete 50 messages, it start open quickly.
Best regards

For many years, I have backed up the folder pmail/mail, as I thought that it contains both my mails and any settings. I did this in case of any computer issue. For the first time, there was one recently. It appears that something is missing, but I'm quite sure the mail is in there. After installing Pegasus and swapping the "mail" folder contents with the old one, it is not loading any of the mail or previous settings, . Is there some way to do this successfully?

Hi all -

Just wondering, does anyone know if there is a feature in the latest versions of PMAIL which allows the user to set a default COLOUR, so whenever they post a new email or reply, their text is a colour choice other than black?

Thanks,

Eleanor White

Is there a way to create a button on the New Mail folder toolbar or on the main toolbar that could forward the selected email(s) to the system admin? Currently, I have my users forwarding the messages to admin but it would be nice to make is simpler for them.

Windows 10 user here.

Tried installing Pmail 4.80 and the install seemed to go well. But once I opened it, none of the menu items or buttons worked.

Uninstalled, then tried re-installing my previous version 4.71.

Menu items and buttons now work, however as I click into the saved emails, I get frequent error messages with "bad address" displayed. It's a bit of a hassle to get rid of them.

(These errors appear to relate to RAM addresses within a program, and NOT email addresses.)

I can click "X" for "close" on these error messages, but this happens frequently enough that I would really like to find out how to restore 4.71 to error-free operation.

Just a guess, but I don't think the problem is with the earlier versions of Pmail.

I tried a couple of earlier versions, and they, too have this "bad address" error message.

This reminds me of occasional errors I'd see when I did some Microsoft C programming, i.e. some pointer didn't have a valid address to point to.

It looks as if installing Pmail may cause modification of program modules outside the Pmail set, such as Windows modules? That might account for an error to show up in several different versions.

Any thoughts much appreciated.

Davis Harris has asked that Community members be advised of an intermittent DNS issue on the server that hosts pmail.gen.nz sites. His words are:

"there is a slight possibility of having difficulty connecting to pmail.gen.nz sites until I get the issue sorted out.
pmail.com sites should be unaffected because they are served entirely outside my domain"
