The 32-bit toolbar can be moved to wherever you want it on the screen. Just hold down the left mouse button on the bar itself (not on a button) and drag it around until you find a place you like. You can dock it to the top or bottom of the Eudora window or put it anywhere on your desktop.
To add buttons to the 32-bit toolbar, right click on the toolbar, and select Customize. The Customize Toolbar dialog is displayed.
Select a Eudora menu from the list on the left, then drag buttons from the list on the right down to the toolbar. To change the placement of a button on the toolbar, hold down the Alt key and drag the button to where you want it. To remove a button, hold down the Alt key and drag it off of the toolbar.The 16-bit toolbar cannot be moved or changed.

NormalThis is the normal state of the icon. There is no new mail and no messages are queued and waiting to be sent. |
 |
New MailThe mailbox is open and has a letter in it, indicating that new mail has been delivered. |
 |
Queued MessagesThe flag on the side of the mailbox is in the up position, indicating that you have outgoing messages queued for delivery. |
 |
New Mail/Queued MessagesThe mailbox is open and has a letter in it and the flag on the side of the mailbox is in the up position, indicating that new mail has been delivered and outgoing messages are queued for delivery. |
If you are using the 32-bit version of Eudora under Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0, a New Mail notification icon in the Task Bar Tray also tells you when new mail has arrived. You can hold the mouse over the icon and a tool tip tells you how many messages you have, and if you double-click on the icon Eudora is brought to the foreground. The icon goes away when you click the mouse button or press a key inside the Eudora window.
To use the right mouse button commands, place the arrow over a Eudora window and click on the right mouse button, then select a command from the list that is displayed. The list varies depending on which window you are in and what tasks you might need to perform while in that window.
If you have Eudora minimized, you can check for new mail without maximizing the icon. To do so, place the arrow over the Eudora icon, click on the right mouse button, and select Check Mail.
If you want to turn the main toolbar or the status bar on or off, right-click on the gray area of the toobar or status bar and select that item.
To make plugins available to Eudora, put them in the Plugins directory in your Eudora directory, then restart Eudora. Depending on the plugin type, it will be available in Eudora through the following methods:
To see all of the currently installed plugins, select Message Plugins Settings from the Special menu. If a plugin has any settings options, you can use the Settings button to change them.
For information about available plugins, send e-mail to eudora-rep@eudora.com or visit the World Wide Web site http://www.eudora.com/.
MAPI-compatible applications have a Send or Send Mail option in the File menu. When you select the option, the Eudora MAPI server displays a new outgoing message with your current document attached. All you need to do is address the message, type any details you want to include in the body of the message, and click Send or Queue.
To run the Eudora MAPI server, use the MAPI Options dialog. To display the MAPI Options dialog, select Options... from the Tools menu and click on the MAPI category (see the "Options Dialog" section).
You have several options in the MAPI Options dialog for loading the Eudora MAPI server. You can set it to always run or to run only when Eudora is running, or you can specify that it never run. These three options open or exit the server as soon as you select them.
Note: When you are running the Eudora MAPI server, Microsoft Exchange will not work. If you need to use Exchange, turn off the Eudora server.
You also have several options for saving or deleting MAPI attachments. When you use MAPI to attach a file and send a message, that file is immediately copied into the Attach directory (or a directory you have specified). You can use the MAPI options to save those copies, delete them after sending their corresponding messages, or delete them after their messages are emptied from the trash.
Note: Be sure to change the account information in the Getting Started Options.
If you don't already have a program item set up for your original Eudora directory, you should probably do that. Be sure that the command line gives the path to the original eudora.ini file.
Note: Be sure to change the account information in the Getting Started Options.
If you are having problems, try the following:
"-ERR Maildrop lock busy"
This usually happens after your PC has "hung" during a mail check and you are now attempting to re-connect to the mail server. The best thing to do is to contact your e-mail administrator and tell them that you have a POP3 server process that needs to be disconnected.
"503 Need RCPT (Recipient)"
You must include at least one recipient in the To field for your message to be delivered. If you have a nickname in the To field, be sure that in the Address Book at least one e-mail address or valid nickname is included in the Address(es) tab. If the Address(es) tab is blank, there are no recipients.
"Error getting a network socket. Cause: no buffer space available (10055)"
The buffers the error message is referring to are TCP buffers. TCP/IP stacks need buffers where they can store data that goes to/from the network. Since at a low level the data has to be sent to a hardware device, the buffers generally have to be in low memory (i.e., < 1MB). This is valuable space for most users, so most TCP/IP stacks have a way of controlling how many of these buffers the user wants allocated. If you're using a lot of other network applications at the same time (especially X Windows, which uses a buffer for each window), then you might get this error. The other case that this error might occur is the TCP/IP stack not correctly marking buffers as being unused, so you have a buffer not being used that the stack thinks is being used.
"Could not rename lmos.tmp to lmos.dat"
Quit Eudora, and go to your Eudora directory. Find the files called lmos.tmp and lmos.dat and delete them both (lmos.tmp may not be there, thatÕs not a problem). On your next mail check you may get some mail that you have already received, but that should only happen once.
You received a message containing columns and the columns are not lining up correctly.
Your screen font is probably a proportional font. Change your display font to a non-proportional font (such as Courier) in the Fonts & Display Options.
You have a message that is printing with strange line breaks.
When most e-mail programs send out messages, they insert hard returns at around 75-80 characters. (If they didnÕt, some e-mail applications would only be able to display the first 80 characters or so of a very long line of text.) What's happening with your message is that the width of the line that fits on the printed page is shorter than 75-80, so the hard returns end up in the wrong place.
The solution is to make the print font smaller, or choose a font that is closer together (like Helvetica instead of Courier, for example). These settings are in the Fonts and Display Options.
SMTP servers, which are used to send mail for most e-mail accounts, do not require a password for access like a POP server does. However, if the POP daemon your server is using is descended from the UC Berkeley POPper, you can use the POPSend protocol, which routes SMTP calls through the POP server, so the POP server requires the password.
If you turn this feature on in your POP server, add this line to the Settings section of the eudora.ini file:
UsePOPSend=1
This means you will have to enter your password to send as well as check mail. However, it's not terribly secure since users who know what theyÕre doing can simply remove that .ini file line or uncheck the Use XTND XMIT option and disable the feature. But it will protect you against inexperienced but unscrupulous users.
Note: For your convenience, some options appear in more than one category. For example, your real name appears in both the Getting Started and Personal Information Options. Changing a setting in one group changes the setting in all groups.
POP account [none]
This
is the address for your account on the POP server. Enter your
POP account name, an "@" sign, and the full domain name of the
computer. For example, if your assigned POP account name is "justine,"
and the name of the computer where you receive e-mail is "pop3.qualcomm.com"
type "justine@pop3.qualcomm.com" in this field.
Note: Be sure to use your POP account--this may or may not be your e-mail address. If your e-mail address is different than your POP account, put your e-mail address in the Return Address field of the Personal Info Options.Real name [none]
Connection method [Winsock]
This
specifies how you are connecting to the network. If you are using
Eudora via TCP/IP software (e.g., a direct network connection,
SLIP, or PPP), select Winsock. If you are using Eudora
without TCP/IP software, select Dialup. If you don't want
Eudora to attempt to make any connections, select Offline.
POP account [none]
This
is the address for your account on the POP server.
Real name [none]
This
is your real name. It is included in the From field of
outgoing mail.
Return address [none]
This
is your e-mail address. It is included in the From field
of outgoing messages, and when a recipient replies, this address
is used. Your POP account is used if you do not enter an address
here.
Note: If you do enter an address in this field, first test the address to be sure that mail sent to it is indeed delivered to you. If you use an invalid return address, no one will be able reply to your mail.
Dialup username [none]
This
is your dialup username. If you use Eudora with the Communications
Toolbox, and you have a secondary user name for use during the
dialup process, enter it here (e.g., your login name on a terminal
server). See Appendix E for details regarding how this field can
be used.
POP account [none]
This
is the address for your account on the POP server.
SMTP [none]
This is the name
of your SMTP server. If the computer that your POP account is
on also runs an SMTP server, you can leave this field blank.
Note: If you use UUCP as your mail transport, see Appendix F.
Ph [none]
This
is the name of your Ph server. It is necessary for doing Ph queries
in the Directory Services window.
Finger [none]
This
is the name of your finger server. If you leave this blank, Eudora
uses your SMTP server as your finger server.
POP account [none]
This
is the address for your account on the POP server.
Check for mail every ? minutes [none]
If
this is on and you enter a number, Eudora automatically checks
your POP server for new mail at regular intervals and transfers
any mail addressed to you to your PC. The number you enter specifies
the number of minutes between checks. It's a good idea to set
this at no less than 15 minutes. Checking mail more frequently
puts an unnecessary drain on your POP server. This option only
works when Eudora is running. Leaving this field empty disables
automatic checking (even if the box is checked).
Skip messages over ? K [off, 40]
If
this is on, messages over the specified size are downloaded only
in part. These messages include the first few lines, and a statement
that says the message is not complete. This can be useful on slow
connections. For details, see the section "Managing Your
Mail on the POP Server."
Send on check [on]
If
this is on, any messages that are queued in the Out mailbox are
sent when mail is checked (automatically or manually).
Save password [off]
If
this is on, your password is remembered even if you quit and restart
Eudora, so you'll never be prompted to enter it. Only use this
option if your PC is in a secure place.
Leave mail on server [off]
If
this is on, Eudora copies incoming messages to your PC and leaves
the message on the POP server.
For details, see the section "Managing Your Mail on the POP
Server."
Delete from server after ? days [off, 0]
This
option has a check box for turning it on and off and an edit box
for specifying the number of days mail that was left on the server should
be saved before being deleted. It is a good idea not to leave
copies of your messages on the server indefinitely, as this will
create mail storage problems on the server.
Determine first unread message by [First message
not read by this machine]
Eudora has
the capability to track unread messages on your desktop, instead
of relying solely on the POP server to mark the messages as unread.
This option allows you to select what constitutes an unread message.
The choices are as follows:
First message not read by this machine - any message not previously read by this machine is considered unread.
Status: headers - any message not identified as read in the message Status: header is considered unread. Old versions of Eudora used this method exclusively.
POP3 LAST command - any message after the LAST downloaded message is considered unread. This method is more efficient than the Status: headers method when connecting to a POP server that supports the LAST command.
If you want to get all your messages on multiple PCs, on each PC select First message not read by this machine, and set the Delete from server after ? days to a number of days that will allow you to check for mail on each PC.
If you want to get all your messages on one PC but also want to be able to read new messages from other machines, on each PC select First message not read by this machine. On the PC that you use for all your messages, turn off Leave mail on server. On the PCs that you use to read new mail, turn on Leave mail on server.
Delete from server when emptied from trash [off]
If
this is on, any messages that are deleted from your Trash mailbox
are also deleted from the POP server. For details, see the section
"Managing Your Mail on the POP Server."
Authentication [Passwords]
This specifies which authentication technology to use: Passwords, Kerberos, or
APOP. Ask your e-mail administrator which one to use.
Return address [none]
This
is your e-mail address.
Domain to add to unqualified names [none]
This
is the domain name that Eudora automatically adds to an unqualified
name. An u is a name that
doesn't have an "@" sign followed by a domain name.
This can be used to save time when addressing large numbers of
messages to users in the same domain.
SMPT server [none]
This
is the name of your SMTP server. If the computer that your POP
account is on also runs an SMTP server, you can leave this field
blank.
Immediate send [on]
If
this is on, the rightmost button in the Toolbar of the message
composition window is labeled Send. Clicking on this button immediately
sends the message to the SMTP server. If this option is off, the
button is labeled Queue and clicking on it places the message
in the Out mailbox marked ready for delivery (Q).
Send on check [on]
If
this is on, any messages that are queued in the Out mailbox are
sent when mail is checked (automatically or manually).
Default stationery [no default]
If
a stationery file is selected, that file is used when you open
new messages (except with the Redirect or Send Again commands).
The message toolbar is set according to how the stationery message
was saved, regardless of how the options below are set. But, you
can always change them after you open the message.
Default signature [no default]
If
a signature is selected, that signature is used on the toolbar
of new messages.
Word wrap [on]
If
this is on, carriage returns are automatically inserted in long
lines when the message is sent, creating roughly 76 characters
per line. This makes the message legible on the recipient's computer.
It is a good idea not to include your own carriage returns within
paragraphs if you have this option on-only use carriage returns
to create new paragraphs. It is strongly recommended that you
leave this option on.
Keep copies of outgoing mail [off]
If
this is on, a copy of each message you send is kept in the Out
mailbox. If this option is off, outgoing messages are put in the
Trash mailbox after they are sent.
May use Quoted-Printable [on]
If
this is on, Eudora uses quoted-printable encoding when necessary,
such as when messages that contain long lines of text or special
characters are sent. If this option is off, quoted-printable encoding
is never used. We recommend that you leave this option on.
Tabs in body of message [on]
If
this is on, pressing the tab key within the message body inserts
a tab. If it is off, pressing the tab key within the message body
moves the cursor to the To field.
Map Ctrl+R to "Reply to All" [off]
If
this is on, when you hold down the Ctrl key and press R, a new
message is created addressed to all of the recipients of the original
message.
Copy original's priority to reply [off]
If
this is on, your replies use the same priority as the original
message.
Automatically Fcc to original mailbox [off] If this is on, replies are automatically copied to the same mailbox that contains the original message.
When replying to all [off]
This
specifies how to address a reply. If Include yourself is
on, when you Reply to all (as described above) your address is
left in the address list of the new message and you receive a
copy of your own reply. If this option is off, your address is
removed from the reply message and you do not receive a copy of
the reply. If Put original To: recipients in Cc: field, not
To: field is on, the addresses of the original message recipients
are moved from the To field to the Cc field of the
reply to all message. Only the address of the original sender
is placed in the To field.
Encoding Method [MIME]
This
specifies what Encoding Method to use for attached documents.
To change the method for just the current message, use the Attachment
Type popup in the outgoing message window. For details, see the
section "Attaching a File to a Message").
Put text attachments in body of message [off]
If
this is on, Eudora puts any plain text attachment you send directly
in the message body, as if it were typed in manually.
Attachment Directory [none]
This
specifies what directory to put incoming attachments into. To
specify a folder, single-click on the folder name button. A dialog
is displayed prompting you to select a folder.
Delete attachments when emptying Trash [off]
If
this is on, Eudora automatically deletes an attachment received
with a message when that message is deleted. The attachment must
still be in the folder defined as the Attachments Folder. If you
want to save an attachment but delete the message, move the attachment
to another folder or turn this option off.
Delete Automatic Attachments:
This
specifies how to handle attachments to automatically generated
messages, such as is created with the Insert System Configuration
command.
Never [default]
If
this is on, automatic attachments are never deleted from the attachment
directory.
After sending message
If
this is on, automatic attachments are deleted from the attachment
directory when their corresponding messages are sent.
When message emptied from Trash
If
this is on, automatic attachments are deleted from the attachment
directory when their corresponding messages are emptied from the
trash.
Personality
A popup menu of your alternate
e-mail accounts, or "personalities."
The New, Add and Delete buttons let you create a new personality, add it to the list, and modify or delete the selected personality.
To set the following options for a personality, just be sure that personality is selected in the Personality field (select it from the popup). The options for the Dominant personality are reflected in the other Options categories-if you change them in the Personalities Options they will change in other categories.
Real Name
The real name. For details
about this option, see the section "Getting Started Options."
POP Account
The POP account. For details
about this option, see the section "Getting Started Options."
Default Domain
The default domain. For
details about this option, see the section "Sending Mail
Options."
Return Address
The return address, if
different than the POP account. For details about this option,
see the section "Personal Information Options."
SMTP Server
The SMTP server, if different
than the POP server. For details about this option, see the section
"Hosts Options."
Default Signature
The default Signature
(select one from the popup). For details about this option, see
the sections "Using a Signature" and "Sending Mail
Options."
Default Stationery
The default stationery
(select one from the popup). For details about this option, see
the sections "Using Stationery" and "Sending Mail
Options."
Check Mail
If this is on, mail checking
is enabled for the personality. If you have specified a number
in the Check for mail every ? minutes option in Checking
Mail, mail is checked automatically. If you manually check for
mail (using the Check Mail command from the File menu), then mail
is checked for the personality.
Leave Mail on Server
If this is on,
mail for the personaility is left on the POP server and a copy
is transferred to your PC.
Screen Font: [Courier New,9]
This
field lists the font to be used for displaying the text of your
Eudora messages and mailbox windows. It also lists the point
size of the font. To change the selection, click on this field.
The Font dialog is then displayed, allowing you to select a new
font and size.
Print Font: [Courier New,12]
This
field lists the font to be used when printing messages using the
Print... command. It also lists the point size of the font.
To change the selection, click on this field. The Font dialog
is then displayed, allowing you to select a new font and size.
Message Window Width: [80]
This
field specifies the width of new and received message windows
(in characters). If you leave this field blank, the default value
is 80. This setting has no effect on what your mail looks like
when it is sent. When mail is sent, Eudora wraps at or before
76 columns.
Note: If you use a proportional font, Eudora sets the window width based on the average width of the characters in the font.
Message Window Height: [20]
This
field specifies the height of new and received message windows
(in lines). If you leave this field blank, the default value
is 20.
Note: If the Zoom windows when opening option is turned on, received message window heights are automatically adjusted to the height of the message text.
Zoom windows when opening [on]
If
this option is on, new message windows automatically open to their
"zoomed" size. The zoomed size is computed on a window-by-window
basis. For message windows,
zoomed size is just long enough to display all of the message
(but no longer than the main window), and as wide as the Message
Window Width setting. Composition
windows zoom to the height specified by the Message
Window Height setting.
Show toolbar [on]
If
this option is on, the main window toolbar is displayed (see the
"Main Window Toolbar" section).
Show toolbar tips [on]
If
this option is on, holding the mouse pointer over a button in
the main window toolbar displays a very brief description of that
button's function.
Show status bar [on]
If
this option is on, Eudora displays a status bar at the bottom
of the main window. The status bar provides a brief description
of menu items and toolbar buttons.
Show category icons [on]
This
option allows you to turn the Category icons in the Options dialog
on and off.
If this is on, a warning dialog is displayed if you queue a message with styled text.
If this is on, styles are not sent with messages. Even if you have used styles in a message, that information is not sent with the message.
If any of these are on, they can be displayed in incoming messages (if the message includes the style).
Ignore capitalized words [off]
Ignores
words that start with capital letters, such as proper nouns.
Ignore words with numbers [on]
Ignores
words that contain numbers.
Ignore words with mixed case [off]
Ignores
words that contain both upper and lower case characters.
Report words with mixed case [on]
Reports
words that contain both upper and lower case characters and identifies
them as Mixed case.
Report doubled words [on]
Reports
words that appear twice in sequence in text and identifies them
as Doubled words.
Always suggest [on]
Displays
Eudora's suggestions for the correct spelling of an unknown word
in the Suggestions field by default.
Ignore original text [on]
Ignores
any text that is preceded by a ">". Eudora assumes
that this text was originally from another message, and therefore
does not need to be checked.
Check when message queue/send selected [off]
Checks
the spelling of messages when you use the Queue or Send
commands.
Warn me when I queue/send a message without completing
the spell check [on]
Displays
a warning if you are checking spelling on outgoing mail but did
not complete the spell check.
Show columns [Status, Priority, Attachments, Label, Sender,
Date, Size, Server, Subject]
If
any of these options are on, that column is displayed in mailbox
windows.
To change a label title, type the new title in the field to the right of the label number. To change a label color, single-click on the label number to display the Color dialog.
You can select from one of the pre-defined Basic Colors or create your own Custom Colors. To assign a basic color to a label, select the color and click OK. To create a custom color, click the Define Custom Colors button to display the custom colors palette.
To define a custom color, select one of the 16 custom color boxes. Using the mouse pointer, click anywhere on the color palette to select the color Hue and Saturation. Use the color control bar to the right of the color palette to adjust the color. When you are satisfied with the color, click the Add to Custom Colors button. Once you have completed creating the custom colors, select the desired label color and click OK.
Use an alert [on]
If
this is on, an alert dialog notifies you when new mail is received.
Open mailbox (new mail only) [on]
If
this is on, mailboxes are automatically opened when new mail arrives
in them, and the first unread message of the last unread batch
of messages is selected.
Play a sound [on]
If
this is on, a sound is played when Eudora needs attention. To
select a sound (.wav) file, click on the button below the Play
a sound option. The Select sound file dialog is then displayed,
allowing you to select a sound.
Generate Filter Report [on]
If
this is on, a filter report is generated when filters are used.
Delete unread mail [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to delete unread mail.
Delete queued mail [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to delete queued mail.
Delete unsent mail [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to delete unsent messages.
Queue a message with no subject [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to queue a message with
no subject.
Queue a message with styled text [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to queue a message with
styled text. (You can also use the Styled Text Options to set
several options related to styled text.)
Quit with messages queued to be sent [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to quit Eudora and you have
queued messages.
Queue a message bigger than ? k [on, 500]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to send a message whose
size is more than the specified number. This number must be between
0 and 1000000.
Set a changed message back to read-only [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to make an edited incoming
message uneditable.
Empty the Trash mailbox [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to empty the Trash mailbox.
Once messages are deleted from the Trash, they are completely
gone.
Start Eudora and it's not the default mailer [on]
If
this is on, you are warned if you try to start Eudora when it's
not the default mailer. When Eudora is the default mailer, "mailto"
commands open a Eudora message, regardless of what application
the command is in.
Important: Do not use the Dialup connection option unless you have a Unix shell account. Most users have a SLIP, PPP, or direct network account and can use the Winsock connection method.
Dialup username: [none]
Type
your dialup user name in this field. Leave this field blank if
your dialup username is the same as your POP account username.
Phone number: [none]
Type
the dialin phone number for your terminal server here. When using
Eudora from a location that requires a prefix (such as "8"
or "9"), make sure to include the prefix in this field
along with the phone number.
Modem: [*Default:Hayes (unreliable transfers)]
Specifies
the modem type. If your modem is listed among those available,
select it. If not, select *Default:Hayes (unreliable transfers).
Note: While the default modem functions in many cases, you may experience data corruption when sending or receiving messages. To configure Eudora for a reliable connection using the default modem, you must modify the DEFAULT.MOD dialup file, as described in Appendix E.
Baud rate: [9600]
Specifies
the speed at which your modem communicates with the terminal server.
Select the value that corresponds with your modem speed.
COM port: [COM2]
Specifies
the COM port that your modem is connected to on your PC.
Flow Control: [Hardware]
Specifies
the modem flow control. Flow control is the ability of the modem
and PC to stop the data flow before the internal buffers fill
up and overflow. The modem may use either hardware or software
flow control (software flow control is typically the modem default
setting), but hardware is preferred and strongly recommended at
baud rates above 9600. If your modem does not support hardware
flow control, then you must use software flow control. Software
flow control, however, does not work well at speeds above 9600
baud.
Data bits: [8], Stop bits: [1], Parity: [none]
Specify
various terminal server settings. The default values are correct
for almost all cases. Consult with your local Eudora support
coordinator or service provider prior to changing any of these
values.
Service provider: [*Default (must modify)]
Specifies
the service provider whose terminal server Eudora is connecting
to. If your service provider is listed among those available,
select it. If not, select *Default (must modify).
Note: The default service provider will not function until the SERIAL.NAV dialup file is modified to work with your service provider, as described in Appendix E.
Dialup timeout after ? seconds [60]
Specifies
the number of seconds before a dialup connection will time out.
Show trace window [on]
This
option allows you to enable the Trace Window that Eudora displays
when making dialup connections. When enabled, the Trace Window
is opened automatically at the beginning of the dialup session.
It follows what Eudora is sending, expecting, and the characters
returned to Eudora. The Trace Window is a valuable troubleshooting
tool because when there is an error during the dialup process,
the window displays the source of the error.
Use asynchronous Winsock calls for:
This
option allows you to select asynchronous calls for Database
functions or All others when using the Winsock connection
method. There are two methods of making Winsock calls using TCP/IP
stacks: blocking and asynchronous. Because of the ability to handle
error conditions more gracefully, asynchronous is the preferred
method. However, some TCP/IP stacks do not handle asynchronous
calls correctly, so if you're experiencing trouble with your Winsock
connection make sure both of these options are off.
Network Open timeout after ? seconds [60]
This
option allows you to set the number of seconds before a network
connection will time out.
Network timeout after ? seconds [60]
This
option allows you to set the number of seconds before a network
connection will time out.
Network buffer size of ? bytes [4096]
This
option allows you to set the size of the buffer that Eudora uses
to transfer information to and from the server.
Note: If you are having trouble transferring large messages, the size of this buffer may be decreased.
Cache network info [on]
This
option causes Eudora to remember the results of previous database
functions when using the Winsock connection method. This speeds
up database functions within a single Eudora session.
Unload Winsock DLL after closing socket [off]
This
option causes Eudora to unload the Winsock DLL after closing the
socket. This is useful if you don't want Eudora to keep your Winsock
DLL open continuously.
Automatically dial & hangup this connection
[off] (32-bit Eudora only)
If
this is checked, the specified dialup connection (referred to
in Windows NT 4.0 as a "phonebook entry") is used when
Eudora does any network operation. Use the popup menu to select
a connection in the Entry field.This option is only available
if you have installed the dialup networking services with Windows
95 or Windows NT 4.0.
Username
This
specifies the username for the auto connection.
Save password
If
this is on, the auto connection password is saved in Eudora so
that you do not have to re-enter it after you exit and restart
Eudora.If you select Forget Password(s) from the Special menu,
you will need to re-enter the password the next time you check
mail.

this option is on, the Eudora MAPI server is off and is never
automatically loaded.

this option is on, the Eudora MAPI server is on when Eudora is
running.

this option is on, the Eudora MAPI server is on and is always
loaded on startup.
Delete MAPI attachments:
Never

this option is on, MAPI attachments are never deleted from the
attachment directory.
After sending messages
If
this option is on, MAPI attachments are deleted from the attachment
directory when their corresponding messages are sent.
When messages are emptied
from trash [default]
If
this option is on, MAPI attachments are deleted from the attachment
directory when their corresponding messages are emptied from the
trash.
Kerberos POP3 port: [1110]
This
is the port that the Kerberos POP server is listening on.
Realm: [none]
This
is the network realm that the Kerberos server resides in.
Service name: [rcmd]

is the type of service that you're requesting.
Service format: [%1.%4@%3]

is the name of the ticket that Eudora requests from the Kerberos
server.
Switch messages with:
Unmodified arrow keys [off]
If
this is on and there is an incoming message window open on the
screen, the up or left arrow key opens the previous message and
the down or right arrow key opens the next message. If this option
is off, the arrow keys can be used to move the caret in messages.
Note: Even if Unmodified arrow keys is on, the arrow keys do not switch messages if there is an outgoing message topmost on the screen.
Ctrl+arrow keys [off]
If
this is on, you can switch messages (as described in the "Unmodified
arrow keys" section above) by holding down the Ctrl key and
pressing the arrow keys. The
Ctrl+arrow keystrokes do not work when composition windows
are open on the screen.
Alt+arrow keys [on]
If
this is on, you can switch messages (as described in the "Unmodified
arrow keys" section above) by holding down the [Alt] key
and then pressing the arrow keys. The
Alt+arrow keystrokes do work when composition windows are
open on the screen.
Require confirmation for deletes [on]
If
this is on, Eudora alerts you when you are deleting messages you
haven't read or transferring queued messages out of the Out mailbox.
Close messages with mailbox [off]
If
this is on, closing any mailbox window (except Out) closes all
the open messages from that mailbox.
Empty Trash when exiting [on]
If
this is on, the Trash mailbox is emptied when you exit Eudora.
If this is off, the Trash is only emptied when you select Empty
Trash from the Special menu.
Say OK to alerts after ? seconds [on, 120]
If
this is on, notifications of network problems automatically go
away after the specified number of seconds. This allows Eudora
to try the communication again, and is most useful if you have
automatic mail checking enabled for any of your accounts.
Turbo redirect by default [off]
If
this is on and you select Redirect To, a redirected message is
created with the specified recipient, the message is queued, and
the original message is deleted.
Automatically open next message [off]
If
this is on, deleting or transferring the current message opens
the next message in the mailbox, but only if it is unread.
Allow Drag and Drop Transfers [on]
If
this is on, you can transfer a message to another mailbox using
drag and drop.
Intercept Netscape mailto URL [off]
If
this is on, Netscape mailto commands (clicking on an active e-mail
address in a Web page) opens a Eudora message.
Include outdated Return-Receipt-To [off]
If
this is on, the old Return-Receipt-To header is included in the
new return receipt header. The old Return-Receipt-To header requested
that a cooperating mailer return a message to you when your outgoing
message was delivered to the addressee. This did not necessarily
mean that your recipient ever displayed the message.
Automatically expand nicknames [off]
If
this is on, nicknames in message headers are replaced with the
real addresses when you switch fields.
