I suspect the drive letter or path to the mailboxes has changed.  Go to the directory containing the winpm-32.exe file and run the program pconfig.exe.  Check the Standalone HOME and NEW mail directory drive and path to make sure they are pointing to the directory containing the pmail.ini file and folders.  By default this should be in the form c:\pmail\mail\<username> or c:\pmail\mail\~8 depending on whether or not this a a older or newer installation.  

I have been using Pegasus for many years over many computers.  I recently had my wife's computer checked and the "expert" at her university backed up everything on the C drive before reinstalling XP from the start.  Yes, it seems to work faster now and I can find all the documents and files/folders my wife uses for her university job.  Except, however, for pegasus.  When I try to open it, using the wimpm-32 application (largest) file, I get a box requesting the "username" before it will load.  I have no recollection of a username in this position, and have tried all sorts of permutations of her "identity", usernames for email, and racked my brains all without success to gain entry into this beloved of all places.  I am at a total loss.  If there is/was a username and it is lost, is there some way I can get her Pmail to open.  My wife cries a lot these days, and I am hoping to sove this mystery for her and to be her hero.  Please help.  Thank you.
