Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / November 2004

I'm new to Eudora and just tring to set it up.  One thing I can't see
how to do is changing the order in which the columns are displayed in
the mailboxes - in Netscape it's done by dragging the column headings
but in Eudora this doesn't seem to work. I've tried holding down

From the eudora website:
Mac OS 9.x
We do not plan to update Eudora for Mac Classic. We will continue to make
Eudora 6.1 available for download and sale for Mac Classic users.

I am using 6.2 on OS X 10.3.6. I have the normal alert on for incoming
emails, but I want certain mails to go into their mailboxes, the mailbox
to open, but I don't want the normal alert.
I can almost do this with filters. I have this sequence of actions:

OS 9.2
Eudora 6.1 {latest}
On this one machine Eudora repeatedly crashes while grabbing mail.
This corrupts most of the mailboxes each time. All other apps are OK.

I just recently terminated an account with my DSL provider (I kept a
different dial-up account the whole time) and my Eudora (6.1) keeps
checking for email from it...I changed all the settings to just the
dial-up's servers, in Internet Config as well, so I can't figure out

Are there tricks spammers can use to avoid Eudora filters? (or things I
need to do to make filters fully effective?)
I will sometimes Kill a Subject string in a newsgroup window, usually
trimming it down to just a key word or two to try to catch additional

Although I have installed 6.2 twice, I still have no spelling
dictionary. How can I get one?

I've installed a foreign-language spelling dictionary in my copy of
Eudora 6.1. I'm probably going to update to 6.2 in the next week or two,
but now I can't remember how to access and save the extra dictionary so
as to reinstall it in the newer version. Can anyone help? For that

I'm thinking about trying the Spamnix plugin "Attach Reminder."  Has
anyone tried it?  What do you think about it?  I have a terrible time
remembering to actually attach my supply requests when I send what
purports to be a supply request.  It has happened so often that it's

I am finding messages on my e-mail account on Netscape that have never
come through in Eudora.
I want them in Eudora. What do I do?

Eudora 'helpfully' changes smileys, e.g. :-) into (imho horrible)
little yellow images. Has anyone figured out how to turn them off?

Hello, and thanks in advance for any help.  I am using version 6 under
OS 9.2.2 but I think the question relates to newer versions and OS X as
well.  I have a corrupted mailbox (the In box) which has been allowed to
become too large.  When messages are opened, I often see parts of ...

when I have an attachment in a message on the imap server, and I forward
this message, the attachment is moved to my machine and converted.
Eudora states Macintosh HD:att.doc so it does not state
Macintosh HD:users:me:documents:attachments:att.doc

Promotions for Eudora 6.2 say something about Scam Watch. I cannot find
it in the settings or anywhere else.
