Strange. I had irfanview working correctly.

Maybe be a wine issue?

[quote user="vstreano"]I'm using v4.52, and yes it does effect plain text messages.[/quote]

It's very likely that this issue has been fixed meanwhile. IOW: There won't be a fix for you unless it still occurs in the most recent version (4.63).

Done; figured it out.

I had (good?) reasons for using non-standard paths, without being aware of any such problems. Thanks!

The current Pegasus Mail which is a 32-bit application runs quite normally in Windows 8 in 64-bit mode, just like other 32-bit apps. remember to install it outside the c:\Program Files directory structure. If you let it go to default locations, it will start install in c:\pmail

Hallo Rebeccah,

do the two login-popups ask vor same logindata?

You may have a look at internet options, if there is more than one definition at tag POP3.

Or may be there are some mails waiting to be sent (have a look at queue) so Pegasus wants SMTP-Password at startup (asumed, you have configured SMTP to use login data from POP3-configuration).

Thanks. Yeah, that's what I thought. So I guess I will tell him to live with the fact that only the new mails will be possible cause I've seen not much info on IMAP on his webhosters pages.

As far as I can see, there is no certain way to detect English or French content without resorting to dictionary word sampling. As for identifying a country of origin, that is flawed as a French person could mail you from Germany in French.  I think it would be better to consider other methods such as using SpamHalter,  built-in to Pegasus Mail, teaching it that words in other languages are treated as Spam. They would then be directed to a folder of your choice.

Hmm ... I'm not shure about your problem ...

Initialy Pegasus sorts addressbookentries by name on every opening. If you want them to be sortet by key, you have to click at the columntop. Pegasus does not remember your choice of sortcriteria.

If the entries are mixed up (key doesn't match name), the indexfile of the addressbook is damaged. Simply reindex that addressbook (in the same menue, where you add, delete ... addressbooks.

Is there any Antivirus allowed to check mails while downloading them with POP3?

Disable this feature.

I believe if you have performed a default multi-user installation, you can bcc to the user "Admin" or whichever user is performing the mailing. When you do the .pmw file injection method you've employed, you are in effect bypassing the queueing process; during that process is when pmail creates the copy-to-self. A downside of any bcc method will be that the mails placed in copy-to-self will also contain attachments. Normally copy-to-self mails only indicate a pointer to the attached files. Also with an external bcc (as opposed to username bcc) there is the additional bandwidth to download those mails.

Hi there,

i used mail merge the first time. But when testing i stumbeld upon the fact, that mail merge ist using the signature set 1 reagrdless of the identity i chose (which has a diffrent signature set). Even the default signature set which is selected in Tools>Options is not beeing used.

Is there a way to select a different signature set for mail merge?

 

thx

BTW. I´m using ver 4.63

Thanks for your reply.

I use mltpop32 which is a 32-bit application, and it does work once I make a standard Pegasus POP3 or IMAP connection to a mail server before invoking multipop.

This small workaround may be a little easier than running inside virtualbox.

OK so now where is "this" Minidump.exe file located?  You did not provide the site to retrieve the file, or is it from Microsoft?

"This" as in the pmail community site.

"cassion,"

Evidently you have not read the posts as J. Wise did give me the location and I replyed to fact that it was downloaded and installed earlier today. 

Thank you for your assistance and all others that have HELPED!

Filters: I doen't even know how to export filters from Thunderbird neither where he writes the rules.

Sorry ... doen't know to do migrate filters more or less automatically.

Hallo Konrad,

> 16 is correct but I do get a postmaster notify mail every minute:

Hmm ... it seems the Telekom-server and your Mercury are playing pingpong due to that forward-rule (in reality, it's a bounce).

The reason may be very simple: if the Telekom asumes a mail to be SPAM, their server refuses the mail and Mercury generates an errormessage. One copy goes to the postmaster (if configured) and one to the mailaddress specified in return-path of forwarded message. I asume Mercury changes return-path while forwarding/bouncing. If you didn't tell Mercury to send only a few lines, Mercury will attach the whole SPAM to the errormessage and that message will be forwarded again to Telekom and their server finds same SPAM in attachment ... and so on.

As far as I remember I had that problem years ago (while using Mercury/NLM). I reduced  the lines to attach to errormessage. In configuration of core module - tag "general" I set the returnlines to 15. Give it a try ...

 bye    Olaf

 

Hi

 I did some more research and testing and found this does the trick:-

 C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C START "Pegasus Mail Priority" /high /affinity 1  "C:\newpegasus\winpm-32.exe" "-ID" "Fred""

Thanks for your input [:)]

I also experienced the issue reported by Joerg once. In my case, I had copied (not moved!) a bunch of folders to a different location and then added them using the "Add mailbox to list..." function, which, basically, resulted in duplicate folders. I also saw the folders with these funny names then.

Hello Brian,

Thanks, that was the problem.

It was set to "On demand only".

I set it to Always and the CPU usage turned to normal.

 

Thanks again.

The safest, most reliable way to transfer from XP to Win7 is to install Pegasus Mail on the Win7 machine, configure it as needed using the XP install for reference, then restore messages, folders & addressbooks from the mailbox directories on the XP machine to the mailbox directories on the Win7 machine.

Worthy of note:

• Pegasus Mail can not be installed anywhere inside of \Program Files (default is C:\PMAIL) 
• Care must be taken not overwrite any configuration files when transferring data from the XP machine.

There is a guide to Pegasus Mail filenames and file-extensions that is useful in determining which files you may want to transfer over.  It is located here:
 
http://www.vandenbogaerde.net/pegasusmail/pf_pmfiles.html

There is no guide for this process because there are too many variables.  A benefit of Pegasus Mail is its flexibility but in this case that flexibility is also a curse.  We are here to answer any specific questions you may have about whether a file is safe to copy from a previous installation.

To answer your specific question about the \Mail directory, that directory contains the Pegasus Mail user list and the mailbox directories.  It can not be copied intact because most of the Pegasus Mail configuration files reside inside of the mailbox directories and are installation specific.  Many folks have had success with a wholesale copy but there are caveats to making this work and no guaranties that it won't introduce problems that are difficult to troubleshoot.

If you would like you can send me a private message containing your

email address and I will send you some additional information that is

too detailed to post here.
