Pigeon (Setup)

Pigeon universal messaging was a bit of a mystery to set up. Being a Google user I was able to set up my double authentication but had to authorize Pigeon on Google and I didn't like doing it. I also wanted to set up the people in my office. I set up dukgo.com for all of us and it works great for simple messaging.


Go to Accounts and add XMPP



Enter the name you want for the dukgo.com email
then enter dukgo.com for domain
enter a password
do not check remember password now
Do check create account.

After you click "add" a screen will present that will verify completion and you will be able to then check "remember password". 

You will now be able to log on to dukgo.com if you wish to enter a forwarding email.

At times it takes a few tries to get the account to activate for some reason.


ShareX Set To Irfanview

I like ShareX to open a snip with IrfanView. Sometimes when updating, I lose that setting. This is one way to restore it. What likely change...
