Re: PopPeeper ends for no apparent reason

Are you saying that when PPv5 crashes, it's always during the load process? And, if that's so, that it's always when PP starts with Windows? If that assumption is correct, does PPv5 crash *every* time at Windows startup? If not, can you give a rough estimate of how often (50%, 90%, etc.)? I'd still ...

Re: PopPeeper ends for no apparent reason

The data files for v5 and v4 are pretty much the same. But even before you mentioned that, my first inclination in crashes is that it can be a data corruption error, so what I would recommend is that you delete the databases. There are various ways to do this, but the best proven method is: 1) In PO...

Re: None of my Outlook accounts are working.

Glad you found the solution. I'm not sure why updating the SSL plugin would have caused that. I have a couple outlook accounts myself and I haven't heard anyone else report a similar problem. That being said, I tested and confirmed that Outlook with StartTls doesn't work. That despite the server exp...

Re: question about folders

Can you provide more information? Specifically, what are the location (full path) of the folders that you're trying to delete? POP Peeper doesn't save deleted messages by default, but it's an option on the "Storage" options page. But these are just simple .eml files that Windows should hav...

How big is the zip file?

Are you able to open/access the zip file using Windows or a 3rd party zip utility?

Re: Outlook / Hotmail Account Issues

Dallas -- one thing that isn't clear from your message is which method ultimately succeeded? ie. did you use the default Oauth2 method (which uses an internal/embedded browser), or did you use the "alternate (web browser)" method? If the latter, then based along with mjs' strategy, I may h...

Microsoft's status page does indicate an issue with outlook.com, but it doesn't have anything to do with this issue. As mjs menti...

Re: recent, delay on gmail message retrieval?

Yes, I agree it's very likely a gmail issue and will probably go away on its own eventually. I would highly recommend using "Preview" for IMAP as it would avoid this issue; although you might still get the error if the message contained attachments that you wanted to retrieve. There might ...

Re: recent, delay on gmail message retrieval?

I haven't seen this personally. But there are some options you should take a look at: 1) Edit your gmail account(s) and make sure that you're using "IMAP" and that the "idle/push" option is enabled on the bottom-right. This setting can greatly improve response time of these types...

Re: view message sometimes does not show eval and user status

I'm sure this was by-design (I don't remember the specifics now), but I can confirm what you've stated. The only way that a message wouldn't have an evaluation is if AntiJunk was disabled or did not affect the message (e.g. disabled for that account). The by-product of this behavior (which I assume ...

Re: Weird characters; need help understand...

Your reply did make me realize I forgot to mention a couple of other points: Rule Wizard may not be too helpful in these types of email because the insertion of the invisible unicode characters could be random. For example, in the last email it could be "i?ns?ura?nc?e" but in the next emai...

Re: Weird characters; need help understand...

Yes, as mjs stated, these are unicode characters; and they appear as question marks because POP Peeper v5 doesn't support them (it will be supported in v6). Unicode support may come as a mixed blessing in regards to this. Let's take this subject of yours for example: ???????????Is? yo?ur? i?ns?ura?n...

Re: Move PP to a new Account on same machine

Yes, that should do it. Make sure that POP Peeper is not running when you move the appdata files. It's not entirely necessary to re-install POP Peeper, you can just go to C:\Program Files (x86)\POP Peeper\ and run POPPeeper.exe (after moving the appdata files). But if you want the icons in the start...

Re: voice to text suggestion

Voice to text? Do you mean for composing email?

If so... I just tested Windows dictation (WinKey+H). It tells me that this app (PP) doesn't support all its features, but it works for what I said, so if there's a compelling reason/feature you can give me why this would be beneficial, let me know.

Re: POP Peeper Terminates with C++ Library Error

Another advantage of idle is that, because PP remains connected to the server, other actions are more efficient and other actions can be done immediately. e.g. it's noticeably faster if you need to retrieve a message on-demand; marking a message as read on the server is done immediately, etc.
