If the window is opening minimized then the restore up button should work but if it doesn't try maximizing the window then resizing it down to the size you want. This size should then stick. The main Pegasus Mail window may need to be windowed and not maximized in order to do this.
If the window is shrunk to a minimized size (no 'restore up' button), then you should be able to grab the top right corner and stretch it back to size.
[quote user="BMS"]The "Enable display..." was already ticked. So I am unsure of why the behaviour has changed.[/quote]
No idea. Does it affect other plain text messages with hyperlinks as well? A workaround would be to highlight the URL and select "Open selection as hyperlink" from the context menu (right-click).
I don't know anything about Windows (Live) Mail and the formats used for it's local folders ...
... but she has a GMail-Account so she may use IMAP (for migration or in the long run) instead of POP. This means, all mails are on the host at your provider and any mailclient may access them there. So - in the mailclient used at the moment (Thunderbird?) access the mailaccount via IMAP and copy or move all mails to her mailbox at the host of her provider. Install Pegasus (not in program-directoy of Windows - use C:\PMAIL), configure it using IMAP and SMTP and you have all her mails again. If you don't want to use IMAP, copy back the mails down and install a POP3-Connection in Pegasus.
If you insert the GIFs via the respective editor toolbar button it will work properly in such a way that the animated image is displayed properly in the final message.[...][/quote]
I'm inserting via toolbar, does that mean that preview might look wrong but once delivered will look fine?
Also, last gif I posted crashes Pmail.
I usually don't like embedding media in messages that way, but sometimes it's way easier when needed to write a piece of information, insert the picture, some more information, another picture and so forth.
This round I ended up doing this in another client, it's a shame though as I'm trying to move to Pmail completely.
I've not seen that issue in association with the resetting font message, Brian. Offset index problems occur amongst our staff about once a month over c.75 mail accounts (that's just once a month, not once per account per month). I usually manually fix it by backing up, then copying mail to new folder. I rarely re-index because it just brings back deleted messages - a problem when some of our staff have nearly 20GB of mail [^o)]
Well, I was suggesting such pages (Twitter and Facebook) to first enlarge the visibility of the program. For me the Facebook page would be an extension of this official website and it could be an affordable means to make Pegasus Mail, and by extension David, present in the "mobile world". Lots of people are connected to their Facebook account via their mobile phones. About the Twitter account, I think it could be more suitable for David as a tool to give some regular updates, even little ones, instead of one big "report" after months or sometimes years. The length of the messages are fixed and traditionally they are rather short. For instance, David could post a small message after achieving a particular "coding task", a sentence like "Finished part IV of MailStore. Glad it is behind me.". Also, if there are lots of followers, it could eventually be a small source of moral support. Who knows, maybe a rich person will become a follower and will significantly help in resolving the "finance issue".
Thank you for your reply and explanation. Let's hope those guys can tell me more, and also that there's some kind of setting somewhere which can speed up this process....
Have read many messages including David Harris' message on this issue of "To:, Subject:, CC:" font sizes and know it is a difficult issue to solve and nothing seems to HELP! Well I just did for myself. With Windows Seven (Win7) SP1 Professional there is one action that can help improve the size of the font for those entries. Do not really like this but it works.
Click 'Start/Control Panel/Display/' in here there are three(3) options to select 'Smaller - 100%(default); Medium -125% and last but not forgotten Larger - 150%' with a message below "Some items may not fit on your screen if you choose this setting while your display is set to this resolution." With the 'Apply' radio button next to that last line.
I did select the 'Large - 150%' and it works with everything displayed now very large. NOT happy with this but will work until "Mr. David Harris" can figure out a better solution and I have full confidence in his ability to solve these issues.
Also know this is not a new issue and David has been on it and devoting much of his valuable time in attempts to solve. Maybe this can assist some in the mean time.
Thanks for the offer for help. I used that same dlist again yesterday and received NO ERRORS! Maybe I did something when I was researching the problem or maybe Pegasus is just feeling better, I don't know but it seems to work now. I'll reopen the issue if the problem comes back.
Running further tests I found that a couple of files were missing, namely MFC110U.dll and MSVCR110.DLL. I have not exhaustively tested all features of AVG so there may be more files missing. I then did a re-install of the new AVG2014, but this time did a REPAIR option install. Restarting the system and repeating my testing, all is now well. I am trying to pass this information back to AVG. As a background note, I conclude that the installation process is flawed, as it seems that the loading of the updated version is preceded by the unloading of the previous version, and I conclude that the missing files were removed by AVG. The files are back in Windows/System32
So if your installation of the updated AVG2014 has strange symptoms, you may want to consider a REPAIR option install, to fix things up.
DavMail gateway seems to allow me to connect either Pegasus or indeed our server to Exchange and get all the mail so for now this appears to be my answer.
[quote user="Invictus"]Further investigation reveals that some users encountering this problem are seeing the splash screen telling them they have upgraded (they have not) & would they like to see what's new in this version[/quote]
Hmm ... do you have a installation with central mailboxes (on a server)? Pegasus is installed local or lets say ... may be central installation to, but some installations (i.e. on notebooks) are locally but using central mailboxes? In this case - are you shure, all local installations of Pegasus are updated? May be you tell use a little bit on your installation.
Background: if I test a new version of Pegasus before rollout, sometimes I hit the wrong icon on desktop. Next time hitting the one for new version, this splsh screen comes up (as normal). But at least this doesn't change my settings (if they don't point to new features of Pegasus).
