EUDORA PRO FOR MACINTOSH
VERSION 3.1.3.
FREE MAINTENANCE UPGRADE FROM 3.0.x AND 3.1.1
================================================
This upgrade of Eudora Pro for Macintosh is only for
Eudora Pro 3.0, 3.0.1, and 3.1.1 users. You
will not be able to install this upgrade unless you
have Eudora Pro for Macintosh version 3.0, 3.0.1, or 3.1.1
on your Mac.
This README provides information on the following topics:
* Drag and Drop Requirements
* Installation
* New Features and Changes for 3.1.3
* Bug Fixes for 3.1.3
============================
DRAG AND DROP REQUIREMENTS
============================
If you do not have Macintosh« Drag and Drop running on your Macintosh,
certain features may be disabled. Macintosh Drag and Drop is included in
System 7.5 and System 7 Pro, but is not in earlier versions of System 7.
Macintosh Drag and Drop requires that Finder 7.1.3 or newer is running for
the Drag and Drop extensions to work properly. Installing the Drag and Drop
extensions with an older Finder has been shown to cause strange behavior,
and is not recommended.
If you are running a system version with a Finder that is older than 7.1.3,
you will be able to drag and drop within the Eudora application. However,
you will not be able to drag between Eudora and other running applications.
==============
INSTALLATION
==============
You can install this version of Eudora Pro over an earlier version of
Eudora Pro 3. Just follow the instructions below, and when you open the new
version of Eudora Pro, your Settings, mailboxes, etc. will be updated for
the new version.
To install Eudora Pro, do the following:
1. For a non-CD based installation: restart your Macintosh while
holding down the shift key. This turns off your Macintosh extensions.
(You must hold down the shift key until you see the message
"Extensions off.")
2. If you are installing Eudora from CD-ROM, insert the
Eudora Pro CD into your Macintosh CD-ROM drive. If you
are installing from diskettes, insert the first Eudora Pro
diskette into your Macintosh diskette drive.
3. Double-click on the Eudora Pro Installer icon to start the
installation program. The Eudora Installer screen is displayed.
4. Click on the Eudora Pro icon. The Eudora Pro splash screen is
displayed. Click Continue to display the Eudora README window.
Note: The contents of the README window can be printed or
saved to a file for later review.
5. Once you have reviewed the contents of the README window,
click Accept. The User Code dialog is displayed. Your
five-digit User Code is printed on the inside cover of the
User Manual, or, if you are part of a multiple-user site, it
should be provided to you by your organization's Eudora
support coordinator. If you purchased Eudora by electronic
distribution, the User Code is in the e-mail message you
received when you purchased the product.
6. Type your User Code in the User Code field and click Continue.
Note: If you cannot determine your User Code, you may leave
this field blank.
The Eudora Install dialog is displayed, allowing you to select
which items you want to install. To see a description of an item,
click on the item (the description is displayed just below the
selection area).
7. To install all of the items except the connectivity
software, be sure the default item Full Eudora Pro 3.1.3
without connectivity is selected and click Install.
To install all of the items including the connectivity
software, select Full Eudora Pro 3.1.3 installation and
click Install.
Note: Do not use this option if you are already connected
to a TCP/IP network. If you are getting an Internet
connection for the first time, and your Internet service
provider does not provide TCP/IP software, you can use
this item to install MacSLIP.
To install just the items you want, select them by clicking
on each one (hold down the command key to select multiple
items, and be sure that neither Full installation item is
selected), then click Install.
If you selected either of the Full installation items and MacSLIP,
the Restart dialog is displayed, informing you
that your Macintosh will need to be restarted at the end of
the installation. Click Yes.
The Eudora Version Selection dialog is displayed, allowing you
to select which version you want to install.
680x0
This is the smallest version. It runs on any Macintosh,
including Power Macs, but on Power Macintoshes it is not
as fast as the PowerPC or Universal versions.
PowerPC
This version runs only on Power Macintoshes. It does not run
on standard 680x0 machines.
Universal (or Fat)
This version requires the most disk space. It runs on any
Macintosh, and on a Power Macintosh runs as fast as the
PowerPC version.
8. Select the version you want. A dialog is displayed asking you
where you want to install the Eudora Pro Folder.
9. Select the destination folder and click Install. The install
program begins installing the items you selected onto the
appropriate locations on your disk.
10. If you are installing Eudora from diskettes, insert the
appropriate installation diskette when you are prompted.
11. Once the installation is complete, you are prompted to
restart your Macintosh. Click Restart.
This completes the installation of the Eudora Pro software. To find out how
to set up Eudora so that you can send and receive e-mail, see the User
Manual section "Opening and Configuring Eudora." For details about the
files in the master Eudora Folder that has just been installed or updated
in your System Folder (this will hold all your mail and other important
files), as well as the Eudora Pro Folder that you've just installed in the
destination dialog above, see their corresponding sections in the Reference
chapter of the User Manual. (The Eudora Pro Folder is also called the
Eudora Pro Application Folder: it is the folder that contains your Eudora
application.)
If you experience any difficulty during installation, contact the Eudora
Technical Support Group at (619) 658-1292.
===================================
NEW FEATURES AND CHANGES IN 3.1.3
===================================
Auto-configuration
________________
Auto-configuration support has been added to Eudora
by using the Internet standard Application Configuration
Access Protocol (ACAP). ACAP is a client/server protocol
which allows Eudora to retrieve configuration settings
from a central server. These settings include those
that must be set up for you to start sending and
receiving e-mail, such as your POP account name and
SMTP host.
In order for you to use the auto-configuration settings, your
system administrator or service provider must set up a central
server with your personal settings. You can then download
those settings whenever you like. Typically, you would do
so only when you first start using Eudora. However, you
can restore your settings to their original values at any time
by downloading them down again.
To download your settings, open the Settings dialog under
the Special menu and click on the Auto. Configure icon. Fill
in the ACAP Server Name and the ACAP Server Username fields;
your system administrator or service provider should have told
you what to enter in these fields. Click the Fetch
Settings Now button and the Auto Configuration password dialog
box appears. Type in your password in the password field
and press the Configure Automatically button to download your
settings from the ACAP server.
The following ACAP-related information primarily for use by
system administrators and/or service providers.
If the "If no account configured, try fetching settings from an
ACAP server" setting (#217) is on ("y"), then when Eudora is first
launched (actually any time Eudora is launched without a POP
account having been specified), the Auto-Configure panel of the
Settings dialog is displayed. In the absence of that switch, the
Settings dialog's Getting Started panel would appear instead.
The setting for the ACAP Server is #218, and the setting for the
ACAP Server Username is #219.
The port ID used in communicating with the ACAP server is
setting #10109.
You can obtain detailed information on setting up an ACAP server
to support Eudora clients on the Eudora web site. go to
http://www.eudora.com/techsupport, click Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQ), then click Automatic Initial Configuration with ACAP.
Note: The upcoming version 2.0 release of the Eudora WorldMail Server
will support auto-configuration of Eudora clients.
Pre-configuring the POP server
__________________________
System administrators can now pre-configure Eudora by putting
the Mail Host (POP) server name in the Settings dialog, so that
the user needs only to add his or her account name. When Eudora
is launched, it displays the Getting Started window of the Settings
dialog, the Mail Host (e.g., @domainname) displaying the correct
Mail Host setup in your Settings panels.
For example, suppose the Mail Host you required was assigned
xyz.qualcomm.com. When you start Eudora, Getting Started automatically
displays @xyz.qualcomm.com in the Mail Host field. You just need to
insert your username in the Username text field.
