INTRODUCTION
------------

This upgrade of Eudora Pro for Windows is only for
Eudora Pro 3.0 and 3.0.1 users. You will not be able
to install this upgrade unless you have Eudora Pro
for Windows version 3.0 or 3.0.1 on your PC. Well, yes,
this is what QualComm wants you to believe. But as a
matter of fact the free Eudora Pro 3.02 upgrade is a 
virtually complete installation package. This upgrade
includes new spelling dictionaries for both British and
American English, message plugins, and the complete 200 
page manual in Adobe's Acrobat Reader format.

The only thing you need to do is to convince the upgrade
installer that you have a genuine copy of Eudora Pro 3.0
on your PC, and this is exactly what the included utility
will help you do. The upgrade installer really doesn't care
whether you have a working copy of version 3.0 or 3.01 on
your system, nor does the upgrade itself require any of the
files from previous versions. The upgrade installer only
checks for the presence of a valid version 3.0 or 3.01
eudora.exe file. The MAKEFAKE utility creates a fake version
3.0 eudora.exe file which will trick the installer into
believing that you have a genuine copy of Eudora Pro 3.0
(16 bit version) on your system.

INSTRUCTIONS
------------

1.   Get a copy of EUP302UP.EXE. Refer to the top of this
     document for the URL's. Make absolutely sure that you
     get the 4.2 Mb version. There may also be smaller files
     but don't settle for those. You must have the 4.2 Mb file.

2.   Run MAKEFAKE.EXE to create a fake copy of EUDORA.EXE.
     This utility will not overwrite any existing eudora.exe
     file in the same directory, so there's no danger of
     inadvertently corrupting an existing Eudora installation
     on your system.

3.   If you intend to install Eudora Pro 3.02 from scratch,
     create a directory where you want to install the program,
     say, C:\EUDORA, and put the fake EUDORA.EXE file which
     you just created in this directory. If you want to 'upgrade' 
     any existing Eudora (Light, Pro 2.x, Demo 3.0x), FIRST make
     a backup copy of your 'real' eudora.exe file, THEN copy the
     fake EUDORA.EXE file to your Eudora directory.

4.   Now run the Eudora Pro 3.02 Updater. Usually, the upgrade 
     installer will find the fake EUDORA.EXE file. If it doesn't,
     it will let you select a directory. In that case, select the
     directory where you put the fake EUDORA.EXE file and the
     installation will proceed.

5.   If you did an 'upgrade', then you are finished and you
     should be able to start using Eudora Pro 3.02 right away.
     If you did a fresh install, however, there's one more step
     you need to perform before you start configuring Eudora.
     The upgrade installer installs only a very basic EUDORA.INI
     file if no previous EUDORA.INI file was found. This basic 
     EUDORA.INI file does not contain a [Mappings] section which 
     is required for handling attachments. In order to let Eudora 
     Pro 3.02 handle attachments correctly, you must copy the 
     default EUDORA.INI file included with this patch to the 
     directory which contains the freshly installed Eudora Pro 
     3.02. You should also copy the included MOREHELP.HLP file 
     to your Eudora directory, since the updater doesn't install 
     this. Evidently, this help file isn't required for proper
     operation of the program, but this file can be accessed
     from the Eudora help menu. By putting this file in your
     Eudora directory you will avoid an annoying 'file not found'
     error message if you access the 'More Help' item from the help
     menu. That's it !

ADDITIONAL NOTES
----------------

*    If you intend to use Eudora Pro 3.02 with a dialup account
     (non-Winsock connection) you will need to create a suitable
     dialup script. The sample scripts included with the retail
     version of Eudora Pro 3.02 are not included with the upgrade,
     but you can download all the sample scripts from:  
     ftp://ftp.eudora.com/eudora/eudorapro/windows/extras/dialup/
     as well as from the Eudora mirror sites. 
     
*    Additional spelling dictionaries (German, French, Spanish,
     Portuguese, Italian) are also available for download. You
     can get the spelling dictionaries from: 
     ftp://ftp.eudora.com/eudora/eudorapro/windows/extras/dictionaries3.0.1/
     as well as from the Eudora mirror sites.
