Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / December 2003

I have a number of email addresses and sometimes I want to know exactly
which one was used by the person sending me email. However, there are a
number of times when the "To" field contains the senders address or some
other nonsense, rather than my own.

Eudora 6.0.2, OS 10.2.4 on iMac G4:  When I check mail, there is a
noticeable delay between retrieving messages and actually displaying
them in my Inbox.  I have checked the Task Progress window, and
everything proceeds quickly there, the check and download are done in

When i try to write email while not connected to the internet, Eudora
regularly hangs with spinning cursor for long periods of time. I am

I know, some say you should not ... but using foreign characters in IMAP
folders works perfectly even cross-application in Outlook/Entourage, Mail,
Mulberry and some others, but not in Eudora 6.

I'm returning, with a great feeling of relief, to good ol' Eudora after
a disastrous attempt to use Mailsmith. (Main problems with the latter:

Greetings and Merry Christmas!
I currently use Eudora 5.x under Windows 2000 running on Pentium II
400 MHz (I know, that's why I need to buy a new machine).  I am
thinking about switching to Mac, but before I buy a new Macintosh for

I just up graded to 6.0 and i get this dumb "E" logo block part of my mail page.

I have Eudora 6 in both OS 9.2.1 and OS 10.1.5.  The Eudora version in
OS 9 inserts graphics into an outgoing message field normally.
I cannnot get the OS X version to allow insertion of graphics either

I just got an email from an old friend. She has a beachball iMac (17" I
think- I haven't seen it for a few weeks). It was running 10.2.6 or
