[CGUYS] Eudora and MIME
I use Eudora 6.2.4 for Mac OS 10. I just received a message containing this note: -- This is a MIME message. If you are reading this text, you might want to consider changing to a mail reader that understands how to properly display MIME multipart messages. -- I thought that Eudora could do this. I read the Eudora manual about MIME, but I don't understand it. I looked through the Settings and there was something about MIME in outgoing messages, but not in incoming messages. Is there a way to get Eudora to properly read MIME messages? Just had a thought. Is it possible that the message is not a properly formatted MIME message, and Eudora is not at fault? Additionally: The bottom part of the message had text that looked like it might be HTML, but Open in Browser was dimmed.

If you've ever received any messages with attachments, then Eudora can indeed handle MIME multipart messages. It looks like the message has some extra blank lines in the header before it gets to the Content-Type header, so Eudora is (correctly) interpreting the first blank line as the end of the headers. Without the Content-Type header, Eudora doesn't think the message is MIME based. -- Vicky Staubly http://www.steeds.com/vicky/[EMAIL PROTECTED] * == QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in == * == the body of an email send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] == * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?

If you open the email file using something like Text Wrangler (free from barebones.com) you can edit out the junk at the top. Then try again.

Re: [CGUYS] Will the iPhone Change Everything?
On Jul 3, 2007, at 8:23 PM, Tom Piwowar wrote: Smart phones that can access on-demand Web-based applications have the potential to reshape the business landscape forever. This isn't just about the iPhone. Information-technology departments are already supporting BlackBerrys and other smart phones. These devices will get better as manufacturers try to fend off Apple. There is an ever-increasing number of Web applications and a rising demand for these handheld Internet access devices. We may soon be seeing a real, fundamental shift in the way workers work. Are you ready? Cell phones have already changed the way in which many workers work, although not for the benefit of the employee. Many a blue collar worker is now expected to be on 24 hour a day standby because of the ability to use mobile phones as a virtual noose around the neck. The Nextel system is especially popular as a tool to keep workers on call at almost any time of the day, never being able to fully escape the grasp of their employer, not even on their own time. The employer will provide the phone as a virtual umbilical cord to the company, and in many cases if the employee does not respond when the phone rings, they can lose their job. Will the use of internet access ratchet this up yet another notch? White collar workers are not exempt from the noose around the neck syndrome either. Plenty of companies require their employees, even if on vacation, to use that phone or internet access to check in with the office daily, often to be handed work to do. So much for time off in many instances. And, who was it who dreamed up the term on-demand. Why not something a little kinder and gentler, such as upon request? Why the petulant and obnoxious tone?
