Windows 7 beta

[quote user="Thomas R. Stephenson"]

You can download the file from MS.

Windows Help (WinHlp32.exe) is a Help program that has been included with Microsoft Windows versions starting with the Microsoft Windows 3.1 operating system. However, the Windows Help program has not had a major update for many releases and no longer meets Microsoft's standards. Therefore, starting with the release of Windows Vista, the Windows Help program will not ship as a feature of Windows nor can Pegasus Mail add this to its program. If you want to view 32-bit .hlp files, you must download and install the program (WinHlp32.exe) from the Microsoft Download Center.[/quote]

That file works on Vista, but as I said in my previous message, it fails on Windows 7 beta. Otherwise Pegasus Mail installs and works OK on Windows 7 beta.

Nothing.  The move mailbox does not work in any v4 until v4.5 PB1.  That said it is not moving the new mail directory it only moves the home mail directory.  To set the new mail directory you need to run pconfig.exe from the WinPMail program directory.[/quote]

Thanks. That did what was needed.

I am running the Windows 7 beta on a dual-boot configuration with Windows XP SP2 and have installed Pegasus 4.41 on Windows 7 without incident. (The help file doesn't work, of course, and the WinHelp file which worked on Vista doesn't work on 7, but otherwise OK).

My mailbox is on d:\Internet\Mail. I've made a copy for testing purposes on d:\Internet\Mail07. I've followed the instructions carefully for the way to tell Pegasus where the mailbox is (closing all open windows, putting d:\Internet\Mail07 into the Path box, leaving the option "Move mailbox contents to new location" unchecked and clicking on "Change now".) This doesn't work.

What am I doing wrong?
