Getting Classic Mode setting to stick

[quote user="Bobby"]When using PMail I change to Classic mode but every time I go back in to check my mail the system has reverted to preview mode.  What do I have to do to have the application remember my settings so that I do not have to switch.

Make sure the pmail.ini file is not marked read only and also the state.pmj file too. Failure to save settings may also be a symptom of a new or changed install and to improper location that the win7 system thinks is protected location. Are you running your install from the c:\pmail location only? That is where it must be on all Vista and later systems.

Look at Help, About, Info display to see where the winpm-32 is located and also to see where the home and new mail box location is. It should be c:\pmail\mail\admin for a new full clean install.
