But this kind of migration does not seem to be an option in the installation. However, following these instructions will allow you to do it transparently:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Normal installation except that you have to ensure that the new location is the same as the original one, for me: <code>C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PMAIL<\/code> or <code>C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PMAIL<\/code> (instead of the default <code>C:\\PMAIL<\/code>). Don&#8217;t forget to refuse the option for autoconfiguration of one user.<\/li>\n<li>At first run of Pegasus mail, it will offer to configure one user space. I asked the same configuration as the original one (single user as offered as first choice) with a mailbox in <code>C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PMAIL\\MAIL<\/code>. Then, I accept every default option without worrying too much.<\/li>\n<li>Close Pegasus mail<\/li>\n<li>Copy the desktop configuration and the mailbox contents, by coping the contents of the original <code>C:\\Program Files\\PMAIL\\MAIL<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Check file <code>C:\\Program Files\\PMAIL\\MAIL\\PMAIL.INI<\/code> that must always have the right description of run data with the right installation directory: <code>C:\\Program Files (x86)\\PMAIL\\MAIL\\Admin<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then, you can re-start <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pmail.com\/\">Pegasus mail<\/a> to recover the exact original configuration. So, I could recover my 400+ mail folders, my archives, the configuration of all my mailboxes, the configuration of my SPAM filters. Only one thing: The presence of the 3 welcome messages from the Pegasus installation in the inbox. I could easily wipe them out after reading them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When you&#8217;re an old user of Pegasus mail like I am, you see no reason to loose your old and faithful configuration when moving from one old PC to a newer one as I just did.
