Re: Gmail is not working today

The GMail error has been fixed in WebMail v4.0.15. You can either wait for it to auto-update (usually within 24 hours), or you can force an immediate update: 1) From POP Peeper's main menu: select Help / About 2) Make sure that both "automatically check for updates" and "auto-update w...

Re: Auto minimize PP on last message

Good point. And it would definitely be optional.

And not to get gordon's hopes up, this feature is not planned for v4.1 -- sorry!

Re: Force compact option

"1 day" is really "24 hours" and it's only applicable when PP starts. So if you don't shutdown PP, it's not going to perform maintenance. Or if the previous DB maint was at 9:00a and you start PP at 8:59a the next day, it won't run.

Re: Showing unread mail but no mail found

Sorry for showing up late to the party! The messages may have been filtered by AntiJunk. Did the tray icon have a red envelope? That's one indication that unread messages are currently filtered. Another is that the "Junk View" button on the toolbar will be highlighted (yellow). In either c...

Re: To popup

As lakrsrool mentioned, it basically allows you to type and search using either email address or name. In some cases, they may be very different, even starting with different letters.

Re: Force compact option

Welcome to the forums, Cyp. The option to compact on next start is not something that's intended to be used casually. Unless you delete and receive thousands of messages every time, you're not going to notice any impact from compacting. You can define the number of days when PP performs the compact,...

Re: Living in Venezuela

The solution is to access the accounts using IMAP instead of GMail. This blog dates back to over a year ago, but it describes the details and how to switch to IMAP: http://www.esumsoft.com/blog/gmail/ (fyi: all you should need to do in PPv4 is change the server type to IMAP and PP will make the othe...

Re: Hotmail IMAP timing out

Many people have reported problems with Hotmail's IMAP server. I don't use Hotmail personally, but on the few tests I've run when such problems are reported, I have found that Hotmail's IMAP server is subpar, to put it mildly. You may have better luck by switching the "server type" to use ...

Re: ARCHIVE useless?

POP Peeper was never really designed to be a storage container for all your email. While many people have abandoned a true email client (myself included), using the server's storage (instead of local storage) is probably the norm. I never provide an ETA because it's never correct -- it's ready when ...

Re: After upgrade to V4.01 starting PP takes 45 seconds

The slow load times should be fixed in v4.1 -- at least it has for several people who have tested a fix.

If you're interested in testing it, drop me an email and I'll let you know when the first beta is ready, which should be later this week.

Re: ARCHIVE useless?

The common use is to use the Archived messages with the Sent Mail Viewer and so the filename is irrelevant. However, you bring up a good point and so all saved messages will be pre-pended with a timestamp (v4.1).

Re: Yahoo errors - Serverbug/Fetch, Limit/Capability

Any ideas why Yahoo at the time they were having issues was putting out "Error (Send)" errors on various Yahoo accounts at times even though we were not sending any mail at all during the time when those errors occurred? That error does not actually mean it has to do with SendMail; it mea...

Re: Yahoo errors - Serverbug/Fetch, Limit/Capability

So are these quicker mail checks in part a function of the different accounts working more smoothly and/or error free? There are several factors involved, but if you have even 1 Yahoo account, then it looks to me like they've improved (for now). There's a setting in POP Peeper that tells how many a...

Re: Error Send Mail

It's hard to say what happened without knowing what the error was. But a possibility -- some accounts require that an incoming checkmail occur within a certain amount of time before sending.

Re: receive/view own email

AntiJunk has a BCC rule that will hide messages from yourself. I recently modified the rule so that it will only affect true-BCC messages (ie. if sent to yourself in the To/CC field, the rule won't apply), but the update may not affect existing rules. So, you can either disable the rule, or update i...
