Any Experiences with Pegasus Mail on Terminal Server

I would install the Pegasus Mail program files onto the C: drive of the terminal server and then simply copy the PMAIL.CFG file from a user's PC to the terminal server.  They should all be the same, namely pointing to U:\PMAIL\MAIL. Since U: is a mapped drive that is different for each user (e.g. \\server1\users\user1), it will work perfectly fine as a single-user standalone environment to Pegasus Mail.  No other mailboxes will be viewable to the user in Pegasus Mail.  In setting it up like this, you should confirm that the new mail directory path and home mailbox path are listed in PMAIL.CFG as: U:\PMAIL\MAIL

If needed, you can use the PCONFIG.EXE utility that ships with the PMAIL/DOS product to change the paths as required.  Make sure there is not a "~8" or "~n" at the end of the paths.

Hi,

I think about using the Pegasus Mail Client on a W2K Terminal Server. Each user logging in the Terminal Server has an own network drive U:
The mailbox directory is U:\PMAIL\MAIL, the Client Software is actual installed in the C: Drive of each Computer.

My intention is that each user is logging into the Terminal Server. This way he has an own network drive U: with the mailbox directory. But where should I install the Programm files ? Maybe on C: of the Terminal Server with a Config File directing to U: for user specific mailbox ? Or would it be better to install the software completely on U: for each user ?

 Does anyone has experiences in the use of Pegasus Mail in a Terminal Server Environment ?

 Thanks in advance

Jan Meyer
