One instance?

How it's supposed to work:

1. When one instance of Pegasus Mail is accessing a mailbox it creates a lock file (mailboxp.lck).  If another instance tries to access that mailbox you will be notified that the mailbox is locked.

2. The command line option -MS tells Pegasus Mail that you want to run Multiple Sessions allowing multiple instances, each accessing a different mailbox.  Without it you will receive a warning of a conflict (at least the first time, this warning can be disabled) and it won't run.

So you should not be able to run a second instance without the -MS option or overriding the mailbox locked warning.

I just accidentally double clicked the Task Bar icon and started 2 instances of Pegasus. Is there a way to limit it to one instance running?
