I was playing with Pegasus Mail (silver list) to see what I could get working. It looks like it doesn't detect winsock.dll using it's own 'search algorythm, so the TCP/IP options don't get enabled - hence the (paraphrased) 'wtf?' in the silver list description. So, I tried to force Pegasus Mail to load winsock explicitly using the -Z 128 option: $wine winpm-32 -Z 128 but wine comes back with 'Unknown option -Z'. I'm not quite sure how these are getting parsed, but I see in misc/options.c parse_options() if (*p++ != '-') continue; /* not an option */ Should exit if the 2nd char isn't a - (am I right?) BUT, when parse_options returns to OPTIONS_ParseOptions() The following: /* check if any option remains */ for (i = 1; argv[i]; i++) { if (!strcmp( argv[i], "--" )) { remove_options( argv, i, 1, 0 ); break; } if (argv[i][0] == '-') { MESSAGE( "Unknown option '%s'\n\n", argv[i] ); // OPTIONS_Usage(); } } Still picks up '-' as an invalid option. My first thought would be to stop checking for options after the 1st and 2nd chars are not '-' (ie. after the Win32 program name), but I'm not sure if that's correct. Any thoughts? (FYI, no, the option didn't make Pmail work.) Rick -- -- Rick Romero IT Manager Valeo, Inc. ph: 262.695.4841 Sussex, WI. fax: 262.695.4850 Rick(a)valeoinc.com
This does the trick: wine winpm-32 -- -Z 128 next time read the docs first instead of the source .. ;) Roderick On Monday 18 November 2002 18:06, Rick Romero wrote:

Doh. It's even in the Pmail KB article below, and I didn't see it. Pegasus Mail TCP/IP works after reading the following KB article from pmail: http://kbase.pmail.gen.nz/viewfull.cfm?ObjectID=E1D7B847-576A-4BA3-BEE13F10C... I think if you don't start Pmail the first time with the -Z 128, it sets an option to never load it. I assume for it to be gold, that shouldn't be necessary? It should work 'out of the box'? Damnit. --. I knew I couldn't have been the first person to do that, and I couldn't remember what worked last time I ran it :/ Rick

Try wine -- winpm-32 -Z 128
but wine comes back with 'Unknown option -Z'.

This is testing for "--" which tells wine to treat arguments after the first (program name) as command line arguments.
{ remove_options( argv, i, 1, 0 ); break; } if (argv[i][0] == '-') { MESSAGE( "Unknown option '%s'\n\n", argv[i] ); // OPTIONS_Usage(); } } Still picks up '-' as an invalid option.

You have misread what the function is doing it looks for "--" to tell it that there are command line arguments to be passed onto the programs. Hope this helps (TM.) -- Tony Lambregts

From a thread in the newsgroup more then a year ago, I understand that pegasus looks for the existance of a file winsock32.dll in the system dir. A "touch winsock32.dll" was enough to convince it that winsock was installed.

It seems 'touch wsock32.dll' in the system32 directory works as well. For whatever reason though, it's not enough to tell Pmail to run the inital setup wizard. Though I don't think that's a glaring issue. What is an issue, on my system the Pmail window doesn't refresh properly when changing virtual desktops. I don't remember that happening in the past, so I'm testing other versions of wine to see if it's a regression, or my famously bad memory :) (or maybe something changed from Pmail 3.12 to 4.02 that's caused it..)
