*automatically* in all replies.  In case you're wondering what an
attribution line is, it is the line that appears at the top of a reply
and looks something like:

I receive some mail in swedish that uses åäö. However something is weird
with the encoding, they appear corrupted:
Œ should be å
∑ should be ä

I've been kindof bummed out about the quality of Eudora recently.  I
really like Eudora... but it's starting to drive me nutz.
First, I'll say that Eudora 6.0.2 is an improvement.  It is slightly
faster than 6.0 or 6.0.1 - both the GUI and downloading email.  And it's

Sorry to bring this up again, but there is one little item of
information I neglected include in my original query.
These failures seem to occur only in connection with messages sent by a
friend in Florida using comcast.net as his ISP. Why, given that the

Which 'outgoing headers' does Eudora create

And, which 'incoming headers' does Eudora create.

Just wanted to let people having problems with "special characters"
(like äöüß in german texts) know...
For quite a while now, I always had a problem with one specific
mailing-list from a german company - the subject of the incoming mailing

I'm trying to rescue some files from an old Powerbook 165c, but the floppy
drive seems to be trashed, so I thought, "Hey, why not just e-mail them?" I
have and old copy of Eudora Lite on it (version 1.5.3) and it used to work
fine on e-mail before I gave it to my daughter, but now ...

I see that others here are having the same problem I am having.  Ever
since I downloaded and started to use Eudora 6, I have been getting the
message that Eudora can't download new ads.  (I should also mention
that I am using system 9.2.2  I have 10.2, but I don't use it that

I have a Eudora Folder which is normally recognized by Eudora 6.0.1 X
(spons.) (under Panther). With the very same Eudora Folder; the Classic
application Eudora 6.0.1  Classic (spons.) (under 9.2.2) can neither
check nor send mail. When opening the connection, a message error

Is there a way for Eudora 5.2.1 to filter follow-up messages based on
the criteria of the original filtered message?
If not, will later versions do so?

I have a Eudora Folder that works well with Eudora 6.0 under Mac OS X.
With the very same Eudora Folder, Eudora 6.0, under OS 9.2.2, cannot
check mail. A message error appears during the TCP/IP connexion
establishment. It says approximatively: error -3297 ; {37 : 477}:

In Eudora on Windows you can select text in an email to quote in the
reply. Why can't you do that on a Mac?

I don't want to be required to enter my password every time I open
Eudora. I have checked the Settings >Checking Mail box that says "Save
Password," but I keep getting asked for my password. I use an iMac, OS
9.2. Am I doing something wrong?

For reasons that neither a friend of mine nor I has succeeded in
fathoming many - but not all - of his emails to me are returned marked
"Persistent Transient Failure." I then asked him to send to my wife, who
uses this same computer but has her own address. The result was the

Note: I am on PC. I have a user who's email messages are going
directly to her Junk Folder after upgrading to 6. Any ideas on how i
can resolve this?
