340015 2005-05-13 01:30:00 What do you mean by: I dont like the defautl "group views"? I do not see this / have never used it.

BTW, the New Thread button is at the top left of the main page (of all posts, not an individual post). ;)

Now this is wierd. When I installed this a few days ago ( new computer ) it always opened New Mail in the group view showing last week and prior week emails in two groups. I went to the tools and changed group view back to (none) Normal. Each time I closed Pegasus and reopened it kept defaulting back to that group view. This time, first time after many tries, Pegasus remembered my setting and opened to the regular view. I don't know why it would not save preference until now but it finally did so.

340016 2005-05-13 01:35:00 Thanks. BTW, I have used PMail for about 9 years and think it is the best email platform. :)[/QUOTE]

I have probably used Pegasus over 5 years and recommend it to clients as a safer alternative to Outlook. I like the program despite some occasional problems which can be a real bear to fix due to the very confusing and complex set of files involved with Pegasus.

I would love to see Pegasus include utilities to allow cloning an install to a new computer to keep all folders and files intact. A backup/restore function would be really great because if something messes up the files, getting it all back in order can be all but impossible.

A "move/clone" function to create a copy that can be moved to a new drive or computer would also be a great feature.

Yes indeed. A great idea.

But I stil do not know what you mean by the Group View. What does it look like?

Go to FOLDER / Group Views and select one. There are a number of options. It automatically groups emails based on various attributes. It could be useful but I personally don't like it. It will group by day, week, subject etc.

You mean under Tools / Public Folders ?
Do not see anything under Folders, or elsewhere but have not looked under Options.

340020 2005-05-13 11:50:00 I've used Pegasus Mail for years.
There's a Usenet group here:
comp.mail.pegasus-mail.ms-windows
that I've found pretty helpful.
