Re: Is this normal (Bad Connection Error)

I have to admit, mine was just a complete guess and I've never actually heard anything like that before...

Out of curiosity, what security suite is it?

It was just strange that it happened at the same time as PP update.
If I had a nickel... :D

Re: Separate thread for loading message

Lul.... yeah, confirmed. I think it's fine as-is since creating an account this way really is barebones. I was almost as likely to remove that creation method as to altering the idle checkbox. Which reminds me that a long time ago (probably in the 2000's), I had temporarily disabled that method (I t...

Re: Is this normal (Bad Connection Error)

Not normal and not expected. A "bad connection" means that it can't make a connection to the email port and email ports and webbrowser ports are completely different. Further, the fact that it's specific to a "financial" site should be irrelevant -- virtually every website nowada...

Re: Separate thread for loading message

I just tested this by creating an account in 3 different ways: 1) Using the wizard to create an account with a made-up domain (which PP will default to pop3) 2) Using the wizard to create a @hotmail.com account and changing it to pop3 during creation 3) Importing a pop3 account from thunderbird In e...

Of course, now that you've pointed it out, I'll probably start poking at it like a bad hangnail.

Re: Separate thread for loading message

but the "IDLE command" you are referring to is just an IMAP command or there is a related setting named like that? Both. It should be enabled by default, but you can check; it's a per-account option: Edit the account, on the general page: "Idle/Push" is on the bottom-right (only...

Until I actually did it, I wasn't quite sure what you meant, so I've made a screenshot to better show what's happening: PP_AttachmentTopLine.png The red dot on the right side shows the problem -- you can see that the top-line of the border for the attachment box is cut-off. Presumably this is from t...

Re: Separate thread for loading message

This is something I've considered before, but I think -- for the most part -- wouldn't really be as beneficial as you might think. Let's (again) assume you're using IMAP when possible (because if you're not using IMAP in this type of situation, then you're shooting yourself in the foot). First: you ...

Re: Viewing message

It depends on the protocol used to retrieve the message (ie. pop3 or imap). If you're using POP3, "preview" allows you to define how many "lines" of the message to retrieve. And there's no way to see all the attachments unless the entire message is retrieved. This is a severe lim...

Re: POP Peeper v5.5.2

An update on the last bit above -- v5.5.3 should avoid the issue of having to re-authorize all your Outlook accounts due to the new pop3 permission. What v5.5.3 will do is check if it needs the pop3 permission and not request it if you're using imap. Because the permissions requested should remain t...

Re: Pop Peeper opens too wide on Win 11

Try exiting/restarting POP Peeper and if that doesn't work, reboot Windows.

If that still doesn't work, can you include a screenshot that exhibits the problem?

Re: Modify skin notification

In the section for [sNewMessageNumDisplay], you need to include: Flags = 3 This will center-justify the text You will also need to adjust your current "size" values so that the bounding box will use the correct position when centered. I'm guessing with the current value of 150/200 that the...

Re: No Notification

Glad you found the solution.

The option you found is specifically to prevent visual notifications when there's a full-screen app running. The idea being that you don't want to be disturbed with popups when you're watching a movie or playing games, etc.

Re: POP Peeper v5.5.2 | All Accounts Need Re-Authorizing

Specifically, it applies to Outlook accounts. The reason is because POP Peeper now requests a new permission to access email using POP3.
