I fully agree notifications from Public Folders are something completely different compared to notifications from the regular new mail folder. Your subsciption idea indeed sounds good, could even be a nice feature for regular folders. But I can imagine this is not an small, easy thing to build...
[quote user="danost"]This time there are results from the crash, in the debugger. This
includes 5 files, including the message that caused the crash. I can't find a way on this site to send those files to you, please tell me how to do so[/quote]
The debugger usually creates an autosaved Pegasus Mail message which should simply be sent to the beta-reports address supplied therein. But you may send it to idw.doc[at]t-online.de instead.
I'm aware this has been mentioned elsewhere under different subject headings, but it might be worth making a specific "wish" for configurable folder columns in PM.
We have a number of "collection" mailboxes for things like spam, audit trails and the like. With a collection mailbox, you may be faced with messages originally intended for a large number of different recipients. However, there is no way to see who the intended recipient is, in the folder list. Particularly when we have to check out the spam folder for unintended hits, we have to open every candidate message to see who it was sent to. This matters because most junk mail is sent to our "public" address and anything else is more likely to be an unintended hit. The better we refine filtering, the more onerous this task becomes, or so it seems [:S]
I have two suggestions on my Autofilter wishlist, (the first being an alternative to one somewhere else in this thread):
Indicator for incoming autofiltered mail When incoming mail is automatically filtered to folders, would it be possible to have some indicator, perhaps floating in the New Mail folder window, advising that some new mails have gone directly to other folders?
Without this, checking new mail always involves checking not only the NewMaill folder but also the Folder Listing, just in case..............
Autofiltering exceptions Also, could we have an "autfiltering exception" box to ensure that mail with specified addresses don't get autofiltered? Like my own! On occasions moving mail with multiple addresses into an autofiltered folder, the odd address that you didn't want or need specifically associated with an autofiltered folder slips through. Then later you start the game of "hunt the missing email" until you find it buried somewhere you didn't expect!
I appreciate there are manual controls to prevent this happening; wouldn't it be easier simply to tell the gatekeeper, programmatically, who not to allow in?
[quote user="Jerry Wise"]I would direct you to RFC5322 (the latest on the subject) where absolute limit is 998 chars but the SHOULD limit is 78 chars per line. HTML or plain text does not change the requirements or recommendation.[/quote]
Well, although this is true the reality is more complicated, and as a (kind of) co-developer I personally would work around this by being tolerant when reading such messages: In current days there's almost no RAM limit other than by design (i.e. 4 GB on 32bit systems and much much more (2^64) on 64bit systems) and I'm confident that this would suffice to accomodate any line length currently seen (unless specially crafted for overflow testing). If creators of such messages simply used quoted-printable for wrapping these lines we wouldn't even see this issue at all, but again: Reality is more complicated ...
That looks an interesting program. Certainly those little messages that webmail companies love to add are extremely irritating. However, that is not what I was really requesting.
Several mail clients remove (or offer the option to remove) everything below the HYPHEN HYPHEN SPACE that is the standard delimiter of a mail signature when you start a reply. Although Pegasus nudges you to include such a delimiter in your own signatures, it currently does not not mandate it (likely a valued piece of flexibility to many users). Promoting the use of this delimiter whilst failing to automatically remove such signatures from a reply seems strange. I would have thought it simple enough to add an option to do this.
My suggestion is a timestamp of the last time a rule from a filtering set was triggered.
This way you can tell what rules are not being triggered often, and re-arrange and/or disable rules to improve filtering speed. I have a very long list of rules, it does a nice job of filing/deleting stuff so that only stuff requiring my immediate atttention is in the inbox. But, it sometimes bogs down my computer for a while waiting for it to filter large batches of messages.
This would be especially useful for administrators like myself who get a large volume of email combined with a large number of rules.
What cache management do you have under the Settings tab of the IMAP definition? I find that with everything cached, the access speed is very good, and under Performance you can also specify a limited set of folders to update.
After 18 months with no further comment, I'm repeating my suggestion/request for an increase in the size of the telephone number field in the Address Book so that the entire number is visible in the list of entries. Even though the column can be enlarged, only the first 11 characters of the number are displayed.
At first I was searching for a shortcut to remove attachments from the mail. I tried Delete key, but it did not work. So I found that Alt+R is removing attachment that we want in attachments tab. So my problem has been solved :)
These are great ideas. In my opinion, features that fundamentally improve and optimize my day-to-day workflow are the ones I am most interested in. E-Mail is no longer just sending and receiving messages, it is now about "managing" messages and the continuing deluge of information that comes flowing in every day.
New and improved user interfaces are fine and cute, but what I really desire is features that allow me to more productively manage and respond to the deluge.
[quote user="PaulW"]Something not right - I always see the complete folder structure in added mailboxes.[/quote]
Thanks Paul,
I get a flat folder view with all folders listed alphabetically, even those which supposed to be in the trays. All folders including search folders etc.
I add a mailbox through the "Directory path" option. The "Username" option does not work (!) just giving a short warning sound, even the user exist. I have PM setup as a multi-user installation and normally start PM with a command line option to have the right ID as well as identity loaded in the form: C:\...\Programs\winpm-32.exe -A -I my_user -ID my_identiy
However, starting it normally and typing in the user does not make any difference.
