What works
Installed normally, sends and receives mail either via POP3/SMTP or Mercury/32 queue. The problem with crashing on sending seems to have been fixed either with the v7.10 upgrade or the new Wine for this distribution.
What does not
Everything works as specified.
Workarounds
What was not tested
I've not tested the closed beta Visual C++ version as yet.

Additional Comments
Ubuntu v7.10 and Wine seem like a rock solid combination so far.

Wine version: 1.16
Pegasus version: 4.41
The program no longer exits when a child window closes (like a sent message window) (that's bug #9735, right?)!!
Many many thanks to the good folks that fixed it.

Profile 'gmail':
The IMAP server that manages this mailbox or folder has reported an error during the operation you have attempted to perform.
The operation cannot be completed.
I have set everything up the same as I have it set up in windows (I can run it fine in VMWare on the same machine).
I've tried this in older versions of wine and in the new release 1.0, with no luck.
Any ideas?

Another problem: I cannot enter a username when I start a multiuser Pegasus.

no difference. viewing the About this folder message in preview and the program hangs. I cannot close it by any means, it also covers the desktop and I cannot get rid of it. Restarting Ubuntu seems to be the only means to clear it from my desktop.

Wine v0..9.48 was the clue. I had still .46 and it would not update from itself. When I forced the update, I got a missing public key error message, I installed nevertheless and now Pegasus works, with the same limitations than in feisty fawn: it closes when I send a message, change a user etc...
But I can read messages, recive and send, and I hope that the other issues can be ironed out in a future version of Wine.
Do you know if I can somehow make use of a server installation of Pegasus Mail? For my other workstations I have a network installation on a Synology NAS - is it possible to run the program from there?
I was not able to run pconfig.exe, it would not start - have to try again with the new wine.
cheers,

I found dosbox in synaptic and installed it. How do I mount the drive?
When I open the dosbox emulator (found it in games) I get a shell with a
z: drive. You have already noticed that I am a real beginner in this system.

thank you, with your advice I was able to mount the drive and open pconfig.exe.
The path was /home/werner/.wine/c_drive. Thank you for Ctrl-H. helped a lot. I had to type it like above, not with backslash.
Now the next problem is to get access to my mailbox on the server.
the server path is:
192.168.2.100/public/pmail/mail/~8
but when I enter this path in the Dos box it is unknown.
Do you know how I can connect to my NAT device under Wine?
cheers,
Werner

in the meantime I managed all necessary steps to permanently add a network directory to the system at startup, and attach a drive letter to this mounted directory in Wine.
I had to install smbfs, mount the drive in /etc/fstab and add the drive in Wine.
In pconfig.exe I changed the mailbox and new mail directory according to my settings.
Works fine, except the shutdown of the program after sending a mail.
But at least I can read all my mail on the netword now.
I hope the bug with shutdown can be fixed in the future.
cheers,
Werner
