Pegasus is STRICTLY an offline read/reply/write email client. There
is a POP/SMTP transport program included in the archive, but Arachne
is superior in my experience. All you need to do to get Pegasus to
work with your email that you download with Arachne is install it in
standalone mode and tell it the full path to where you have Arachne
downloading your mail to. For Arachne to work with the mail you
generate with Pegasus, you will have to configure it to create
messages that Arachne can upload. You do this by creating a custom
gateway that will assemble the header correctly as well as naming the
message with the .tbs suffix that Arachne looks for in outgoing mail.
It has been a while since I set mine up, but if you want to try it
again I will do another installation from scratch and send you the
instructions based on a scratch installation. Let me know if you
would like to do this. HTH.
