BUT I've used it for many years. Pegasus is very sensitive to printer drivers - especially the 4.x series. It checks with the printer driver before rendering email. It sounds to me like it is having some problem with the printer driver you are using.

The way to test this under Windows is to set up a plain text (generic TTY) printer as the default Windows printer, and see if the problem goes away. If it does, the problem lies with the printer driver. If it doesn't, its a problem with Pegasus' screen rendering. I don't know about the screen rendering in the 4.x series, but v3.12c and earlier had their own quirks in that area because Pegasus uses a Borland Windows Custom Controls DLL, and a flakey RTF/HTML editing component called TER that I understand is in the process of being replaced.

Sorry, I can't be of much help. For my use of Win-apps under Linux, I find Win4Lin more effective.

No, you've wrong. For my problem the kind of "work around" that Rein Klazes has described is the right solution. The error appears by the use of the default setting: If you minimize Pegasus Mail, then there will - per default setting - disappear the taskbar item. So, during a minimized Pegasus Mail there is only the small Pegasus Mail icon (left to the clock) visible. IMHO WINE thinks every WIN32 application must have it's own taskbar item over the whole lifetime of the process. After altering the settings, as Rein described it, everything work well.


Bye,

Timo

Glad it worked! Was just relaying on the information that I get from the Pegasus Mail discussion list. I don't remember if Pegasus v3.12 even offers the option to have only a System Tray item; even when minimized, it always has its task bar item.
