I am using Pegasus for two users - myself and my wife. Under my user
name I have a deleted messages folder which receives all deleted mail
and the folder persists until I empty it.

Under my wife's user name, however, though I think I have ckecked all
the right boxes, we don't seem to be able to do the same thing. Help
please? How do I make sure that her deleted messages go into a
persistent "deleted messages" folder?

 Thank you

There are a number of people who would like to know that!

Yours though sounds an interesting variation. Do you really
mean that it works for one profile but not the other?

In your wife's mailbox, edit the HIERARCH.PM file and delete any line that
begins with "0,256," or "1,256,".  Then save the file and start WinPMail.

The problem is with a corruption of the user's mailbox hierarchy, so of
course this is very possible.
