- As far as I know, you can't set this up through the ini file. However, if the
- first command line parameter you send eudora is a directory, then it uses that
- directory as the "home" directory for the mail. In other words, several users
- can share the same binaries, but have different configuration files in
- different directories. I imagine that you can even set the home directory to
- something on a local hard drive.
-
- To do this, in the program manager make the command-line box say "...\eudora
- c:\...\homedirectory" where c:\...\homedirectory is whatever you want it to
- be. The only hitch that I've found with this is that you can only run one
- eudora session at any one time. I have to quit my configuration of eudora to
- run someone else's on my machine. I don't know if you'll have similar
- problems over a fileserver or not.
