- Nope. It was deleted off your mail spool file if you had the "Leave Mail On
- Server" switch turned off. The easiest way to get them back would probably
- be to ftp your In mailbox to your POP server (remember to use ASCII mode so
- that the end-of-line conventions get converted correctly). You could
- redirect all the messages by putting your address on the recipient list and
- then doing a Redirect To, but it probably wouldn't work well with the
- freeware 1.4 (which I'm assuming you have) because of a limitation in the
- number of messages that can be open at one time. This would work fine with
- the commercial version, 2.0.1, however.

- Something I am going to add to Eudora 3.0 (maybe 2.0.2) is turbo redirect.
- When you're doing a redirect you don't often want to edit the message at
- all, so it's a hassle to have to wait for the composition window to be
- created and then have to hit the Queue/Send button (or hit Ctrl+E). Turbo
- redirect will work with the recipient list and will automatically queue the
- message without having a composition window coming up.
