[H] Eudora Question

[DHSinclair]

I seem to have one (last) email stuck at my ISP.
Yes, it does have an attachment worth 7.9MB.
Yes, I've modified/changed my:
/tools/options/incoming_mail/ switch to
Check+"skip msgs >20MB in size."
(if/when I get this one, I'll lower this gate!!)

What else have I missed?  Can not get this last old msg
local. It seems to stay at the ISP.  Hmm.
But, very glad to be back on Eudora :)
Best,
Duncan

[H] Eudora Question

[dhs]

How do I get Eudora to re-show my old email folders and old email?

My main office machine lost its' scsi HD 2 days ago.  Have converted this 
machine to eide now, finally.
Was able to save my "EudoraPro" directory, MyDocuments directory, and much 
other stuff before the 
HD went terminal. :(

Office machine is now back on its' new hd (160GB Barracuda) and and fresh w2k 
install.
Still getting up to speed with W2K updates! .. All 54 of them!!

I brought back the previous Eudora directory, but when I launch from a 
shortcut, none of 
old "other" email "mailboxes" are visible and the address book is blank!  What 
have I missed?
Yes, I do know that Eudora is now open-source.  I am using V5.1.1.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Best,
Duncan

[H] Eudora Question

[DHSinclair]

Eudora stores email attachments in a default directory called "attach" in the
EudoraPro main directory.  I like to create and use monthly sub-folders in 
this

"attach" directory.

However, when I do this AND put the attachment(s) in their new home Eudora
puts a red X on the attachment and can not find it. Well, Duh!  I get this.

I have tried to use to right click on the now red-x'd attachment and then
View Source. At the bottom of what looks like html coding are the lines that
point to the old location of the attachment.  I have edited these lines to 
point to

the new location, but the red X remains.

It appears that there is no way to tell Eudora where the attachment(s) now 
reside.

Am I correct?  Not a biggie, just weird :)
Thanks,
Duncan

[H] Eudora Question

[DHSinclair]

I've read and read. Still wondering?
Eudora maintains a directory called "attach."
Here Eudora stores those objects that come via emails. OK
I know that I can create sub-folders within this directory if I
choose to store by month/year/whatever.  I believe I could
even put the "attach" folder anywhere else and just point
Eudora at it.  Fine.

If/when I move any of the attachments post-receipt, the email
gets updated with a red-X for the attachment.  I accept that this
means that Eudora is telling me that the attachment is NOT
where it was put when the email was originally received.

Is there any way to edit the email to fix what appears to be a
'broken link' that I know I created?
Happy New Year!
Best,
Duncan

[H] Eudora question

[Thane Sherrington]

I'm trying out Spamihinator with Eudora, so I have to create to 
personalities - one to send and one to receive.  I set up Dominant as the 
sender, so that it defaults to that when I create a new message, but when I 
receive a message and reply to it, it leaves the receiver personality 
selected, so the mail fails to go through unless I remember to switch to 
Dominant.  Anyone know how to force Eudora to always send from one 
personality, regardless of which personality receives it?

Thane,
Don't mean to sound dense, but I do not understand.  Here is the specs of my 
shortcut:
Target: E:\EudoraPro\Eudora.exe
Start in: E:\EudoraPro

The directory, E:\EudoraPro, is where all the old email, mailboxes, and Eudora 
files are located.
Sheesh, this used to be so simple.. :)

My Eudora is now on my E: drive, the only directory there.
Originally, it was on the D:\ drive.  I've updated the eudora.ini file to point 
to E:\
Confused?

Gonna try it back on D:\ again.. :)

Ok, here are mine:
Target: "C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora\Eudora.exe" "c:\eudora.tks"
Start in: "C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora"

So the program starts from "C:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora" but the 
mailboxes are in c:\eudora.tks


The directory, E:\EudoraPro, is where all the old email, mailboxes, 
and Eudora files are located.

Sheesh, this used to be so simple.. :)


So I think your target should be:
E:\EudoraPro\Eudora.exe E:\EudoraPro

You can also check your deudora.ini file - I have a line that says: 
DataFolder=c:\eudora.tks under [Settings]

Re: [H] Eudora Question

[FORC5]

that is clearer, you will need to edit the deudora.ini file to point to the new 
drive letter, should be in the eudora folder. eudora.ini should be OK but I 
would look at that also.

Why don't you just sort by date in Explorer? Seems like less work than 
manually editing the source of your messages, which doesn't even seem to 
work.

Re: [H] Eudora Question

Well, I'm assuming that you want to view what attachments you have based 
on the timestamp. So you would want to go into the attach directory, 
sort by timestamp, and you'd be able to see the attachments sorted based 
on the date that you got them.

Re: [H] Eudora Question

[DHSinclair]

OK, now I see where you came from.  Yes, the "attach" directory was sorted 
by "date ascending."
The old email's attachments only became redX'd after I instituted separate 
(monthly) sub-directories.  This is not a new "bug" though.  Happens 
everytime I reload Eudora AND forget to start this process B4 getting new 
mail. LOL!  It is my bad. I suppose I was really wondering why I can not 
seem to edit/re-stitch the attachments back to their original emails 
after-the-fact?
Thanks. Local problem most likely.  I'll put everything back and see what 
happens.

I believe that the only way to fix the red x is to
have the file that Eudora is looking for in the 
attachment directory, "attach".  It's probably not 
possible to edit each email individually to point 
to its attachment in different folders.

Re: [H] Eudora Question

[DHSinclair]

Wayne,
Thanks. Yes, I do see that the dot-mbx file can be edited.

What editor did you use?

I used WordPad, but found that WP
did not save the result properly. I selected Unicode instead of Text.
Eudora needed to do some sort of recovery.
All emails came back with a "?" as the Read/Unread status marker.
Just finished changing them all back to /Read/.

I still have a copy of the original dot-mbx file. Thinking of trying to
use NotePad and save with the /all files/ saveas.

Duncan

Sorry but one can edit the .mbx file to the new file location when Eudora 
is closed as I just did it again to verify. Now you can NOT do this if the 
file is Embedded in an html message unless you send the message to your 
web browser & save the message separately. One can also salvage an 
accidentally deleted message [you emptied the Trash] by editing the 
corresponding .mbx file while Eudora is open but if you close Eudora it'll 
be lost forever.

Re: [H] Eudora Question

Wayne,
Have PFEv101. Easy to use so far, but have not used it yet to edit anything.
How do I know that it will save the dot-mbx file w/o mucking the format and/or
any special Eudora characters?

I do notice that the dot-mbx files seem to be encoded in ANSI. At least 
this is

what the Properties window says...Should I choose ANSI in PFEv101 B4
opening the files for edit/update?

Seems most of the 'help' files for PFEv101 are written for programmers. I 
am not

a programmer; so most of the 'help' business is right over my head. :)
OK, maybe just thick or stupid!

I do understand this. Damn thing almost has more bells and whistles than the

You're just editing the location of the attached file but it will change 
all the read/unread icons to ? but other than that it won't mess anything 
else up. I believe we talked about that fix earlier.


Nope. But yes, this is what happened.  I just went back thru the mb and

/read/.  That seems to have worked so far.  Was hoping to avoid this extra

I use System Fixed Pitch but that's just the Font & shouldn't mess up

OK, I'll play with it some tonight. A 'just wondering' thing. To see the

I will keep digging. I do know that I saw this. :)
I run Win2KProSP4. That could have something to do with this. I will

No sweatski comrade. Create an incoming filter «Any Recipient»Intersects

OBTW does this look a lot like the redirected to another folder incoming 
filter that I wrote about a couple of weeks ago?  It should as it's almost 
an exact copy with the action being the only thing that is changed. If you 
created the redirect folder filter then you can just add the action "make 
personality" above or below the folder redirection.

Re: [H] Eudora question

[Wayne Johnson]

Just for the record for those that are having problems with Eudora crashing 
another fix other than the folder redirections is to put the "esoteric.epi" 
that is in the ExtraStuff folder in the same folder that eudora.exe 
resides. This adds more features at the bottom to the menu Tools/Options & 
there is one that is titled "Threading" whose default is 10. Cut that 
number in half also will solve many problems. FWIW I've done both the 
folder redirection & reducing the number of threads & I can't remember 
crashing one in the past couple of years.

You should have a filter already for the mailing lists & in that case just 
add the action "Make Personality" to your existing filter. You can create 
another filter if you want but if you're like me you'll be overwhelmed with 
the number of filters very soon. For mailing list filters I use «Any

  I never thought of adding the personality switch to my 
other filters.  :)


I think it's easier to have a separate filter for the personality switch, 
as when I start teaching this to my users, I have to keep this as simple as 
possible (and most of them won't use any other filters anyway.)

The only difference between this filter & a filter that combines other 
actions is the number of actions. For you I would definitely combine the 
actions into one filter just to keep the number of filters down but the 
concept is still the same for nOObs just with less actions. As with all 
things computer related there are many ways to accomplish the same thing. 
What ever makes you happy.

At this point, I have about fifty filters, so another doesn't add too much. :)

This doesn't seem to work with mailing lists.  My name isn't in the 
recipient list.  What if I use:

Header: Personality
Is: Receiver
Action: Make Personality -> Sender


This seems to work.


For Receiver I assume that you're filling in an email address. You could 
change that part to "Intersects Nickname" ME then it should work with all 
the email addys just in case you're subscribed to a list with more than one 
addy otherwise the way that you have works fine. On some lists but not this 
one I'm subscribed under more than one addy for various reasons.

Actually I've named the personality Receiver, so I'm just using that rather 
than the intersect.

[FORC5]

my main folder already has a file by that name and I hesitate to overwrite it.
I do not have a threading option.
I also can not remember the last time Eudora crashed. Only bug I have is if 
checking mail with no net connection it seems to not be happy about that.
