Is there ab BUG in EPIM Pro - Vers 8.13

Post by m.advisor@web.de »

I believe there is a problem in opening emails correct and enable me to read its contents.
I have installed essentialPIMPro, vers. 8.1 on 28.10.18. It works fine - no problem.

Up to today I changed several times to upgrade to vers. 8.13 forward and backward.
Today, I forgot all my tries to change from vers. 8.1 to 8.13 because I could not open emails from, a specific sender (conrad) - contents was not readable (only show a blue text- picture field). There was no problem to read these message with other mail programs on my PC (e.g.WIN) nor was there a problem to read these mails wit my smartphone (android - google).

Whenever I changed back to vers. 8.1 (I did it several times) I was able without any problem to read these conrad messages.

Pls., help.

Hi Max,
Thanks for your support.
Result: Aftrer having updated epim to vers. 8.14 it did only work once. After a second (new) start of epim the display did not show up as expected.
I then have save the message as a PDF. Looking at this file - > there was no problem, the message has been saved in the expected format.
I will now go back to vers. 8.1 and then restart my computer and inform you again about the results.

Further notes to my previous message:
- installing vers. 8.1 and restart: everything worked fine
- installing vers. 8.14 shows perfect results
- restart computer and test again vers. 8.14: looks like everything is OK now.

Again: Thanks for your support

Further notes to my previous message:
- shut down of my computer in the evening
- start my computer (and epim) next morning
- error as described earlier (no display of contents but a blue field)
- closed epim and installed vers. 8.14 once more; result: message is shown correctly.

Could you please post a screenshot of what you actually see on the screen? (blue field)
Is it an IMAP account? What's the mail provider name?

Max, I believe something is wrong with my database.
(I noticed sometimes earlier a request for synchronisation)
Pls, find further info in the attached PDF.
Thanks and best regards,
Hans

Your POP3 and SMTP settings are definitely wrong, please check with your mail provider.
As for database- try moving/holding database on another drive. Occassional offer to check your database is fine, but it should not happen every time.

Max, thank you for your help. However it does not help at all.
Whenever I close this nice tool EPIM (manually or automatically because of computer shut down) and restart EPIM (manually or automatically because of computer start) the mail contents is shown wrong). A new installation of EPIM (vers. 8.14) initiates the correct display as long as EPIM is not closed and started again. Are there any data overwritten?
Pls, help me: what seems to be wrong as you mention by your statement: "POP3 and SMTP settings are definitely wrong"? These settings works for other message via the same mailprovider and with different mail programs.
Thanks so far,
Hans

On your screenshots, POP3 incoming mail server is "popmail". This does not look like a real POP3 server address.

Max, I changed the server adress. Problem still exists: Whenever I close EPIM (manually or automatically because of computer shut down) and restart EPIM (manually or automatically because of computer start) the mail contents is still displayed incorrect). A new installation of EPIM (vers. 8.14) initiates the correct display as long as EPIM is not closed and started again. Are there any data overwritten?

Hello,

it is difficult to troubleshoot without having actual database. Since this problem does not exist for other users, I think that might be peculiar to your computer. If you can upload your database to e.g. Google drive and send us the link to epimsupport@ with a link to this topic- we could look into this.

Max, thank you for your help so far.
I strongly believe, that the problems discussed (display contents and synchro) are coming up only, when I initiate under the options "Start with Windows".

Regards,
Hans

I see. Can you try to reproduce the issue with same database on your computer? 1 EPIM Pro license allows you to install EPIM on up to 2 computers that belong to you.
