Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / July 2007

I did some major surgery on my Eudora environment,
copying and duplicating mailboxes and tables of contents,
moving mailboxes and TOCs from one folder to another, etc.  
Although I don't think the details are all that important,
they're described in the thread "Eudora On OS X".

    After doing all of this copying, moving, and delet-
ing, something curious has arisen:  At least one mailbox--
the In mailbox to be specific--has lost track of its at-
tachments.  By that I mean that, for messages that have
attachments, the attachment icon doesn't appear on the
message's line in the mailbox window.  For some of these
messages, the attachment is still there and displayed
properly at the bottom of the message.  For others, the
"Attachment converted" line shows up as just a line of
text in the message (when I'm not displaying the message
expanded).  This occurs only for "old" messages, messages
that existed at the time of the surgery; messages with
attachments that have arrived since then display fine.

    I'm somewhat concerned that these attachments won't
be deleted when the messages are deleted.  Does anybody
have any ideas of what I should or might do?
