Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

I've got the database size down to around 800Mb, and although I've not exhaustively tested it the problem seems to have gone away. Messages open/render noticeably quicker too.

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

Thanks! - I'll do some housekeeping tomorrow, and let you know how it goes...

Once I delete some messages, do I need to compact the database? (how?)

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

I monitor 32 POP3 accounts and 1 Hotmail account, mostly every 5 minutes. It's difficult to estimate the number of mails a day, but I'd say something of the order of 200-300 a day across all accounts. I've not done any database maintenance that I am aware of, at least not manually. POP peeper runs i...

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

Even without WOL, I'm still getting crashes, not always the same. It's definitely not consistent between messages. Sometimes they open, sometimes opening causes the crash.
Just FYI the PC I am using was upgraded from Win 8.1 to Win 10 yesterday, and the crashes still happen.

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

OK, I found the time :) Initial tests indicate the problem is not consistent with the same message.... HOWEVER, in a whim I disabled off the WOL plugin option and since then I've opened about 20 messages, some of which crashed before, and not only do the messages open to display more quickly, but I ...

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

I need a bit of time to do the multiple checks on single messages, so I'll do that tomorrow as it's late here now, but here is the other detail you need:

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

As I mentioned before I have Windows 8.1 with IE 11.0.9600.17905 (which I don't normally use) The source of the mail does not seem to be relevant (I have a mix of POP3 and Hotmail mailboxes only) I have just noticed that some mails are not rendering at all, despite having seemingly valid content (th...

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

It crashed when attempting to view a message. Previously I had HTML as the default view when opening a message and it regularly crashed when the message window opens (or more accurately the message window opens, there is pause with a blank window, then it falls over. It fails similarly if the defaul...

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

I've done the upgrade (and the other checks, which were fine) and I'm afraid it's not helped. In fact it seems even worse. Now opening around one in five messages in default HTML, or opening in plain text message and clicking on the HTML view simply causes PP t crash....

Re: HTML rendering in POP Peeper

Thanks - I have a pretty solid 50Mb/s connection, so don't have concerns about that. The problem is too frequent (about 1 message in 10 - so much that I have switched off HTML by default), and until 3 days ago never appeared at all. Reboots and restarts of POP Peeper don't help. Curiously, I'm also ...

HTML rendering in POP Peeper

Does POP Peeper use an external HTML renderer to display HTML content? I have the option set to always view mail messages in HTML - it has worked fine for many months. For a few days now, I am finding the POP Peeper often freezes (and I have to crash it and restart) when I want to display a mail, OR...
