Get Eudora up and communicating quickly with this
graphical guide. By
David Flynn
Fine-tune
Eudora through the Tools-Options menu. You can
prevent Eudora from attempting to go online whenever you
use it by selecting the Offline box in the Getting
Started category. You can also disable the `splash
screen' which appears when you run Eudora by adding the
line NoSplashScreen=1 under the [Settings] section of the
eudora.ini file.
Eudora's
folders and mailboxes can be confusing,
especially as there's no reference to folders in the
online help. Mailboxes are used to store messages and
include the In, Out and Trash areas by default. You can
add other mailboxes as needed. These can be listed at the
foot of the Mailbox menu (called the `top level') or be
nested inside cascading folders.
Manage mailboxes and folders the easy way through the Tools, Mailboxes menu.
To move a message from one mailbox to another, select or open the message you want to transfer, then pull down the Transfer menu and choose the name of the mailbox you want to transfer it to. You can also create a new mailbox and transfer a message into it all in one step by choosing New from the Transfer menu.
Regularly send e-mail to a particular person? Add them to Eudora's message menu by clicking `Put it on the recipient list' in the New Nickname dialogue box.
