"BB: AlphaBlend failed" system message

Thanks, Jerry. I guess I'll ignore it unless it happens again. :)

Using Pegasus Mail v4.63 under Win7Pro: This morning I saw a number of "BB: AlphaBlend failed" errors in the System Messages window (see attached). Perhaps related to new mail or other filters? I have not seen them before, and don't understand what they are. Does anyone else?

Thanks

I had seen that message one time back in 2011 and had asked David Harris about it. He replied:

It means that one of the Windows drawing functions Pegasus Mail
uses to draw its buttons failed to work correctly.

I have no idea why you would see this, and indeed had forgotten that I
had even put the diagnostic in there.

Cheers!
