My Pegasus program has crashed and I can't get it started again.

The PMAIL folder (C:\Pmail or wherever you installed it) contains everything, mail included.

If you can't find it there, a search for "PMAIL" should point you in the right direction.

The actual mail files (*.cnm) & folders (*.PMM, *.PMI) are usually in the "mail" or "ADMIN" folder inside C:\PMAIL (depending on installation type / version) but if you back up the PMAIL folder you should have everything (including addressbooks).

It is possible to store the mail elsewhere, but this has to be specifically set up, and you should remember doing that.

You could run pconfig.exe (in the PMAIL folder) and it will show you the current path, but then again, if your installation is borked, it may lie to you.

I'm attempting to move my existing (saved) emails from one machine to another and would like to know where in the program they're stored.  My Pegasus program has crashed and I can't get it started again.  Since I intended to migrate soon anyway, this would be a good time.  I want to copy them to a USB storage device and copy them over to the new machine.

Any help is appreciated.
