Eudora
(Electronic Mail Reader)
About Eudora
Eudora Pro is an E-mail software package for Windows and Macintosh which makes it easy for you to exchange e-mail and files with other computer users on campus and around the world. Eudora is a "POP" client, Post Office Protocol software that sends and fetches mail via corresponding server software on the Bearcat® Online (and other) servers. Using this program, you can do your interactive work, such as composing messages, on your Windows PC, which allows you greater flexibility and access to more features than those available on many larger machines. Eudora supports the use of mailboxes for saving mail, aliases in an Address Book for frequently mailed people, as well as filtering for incoming mail.Starting up Eudora
Before running Eudora on an NT machine, make sure your My Documents folder is connected. On the College of Engineering machines, Eudora is started by double-clicking on the icon for it, under the Internet Applications menu. Eudora will save all incoming mail into a mailbox called in.mbox on your My Documents folder. Outgoing mail that you've sent will be saved in a mailbox file called out.mbox. Finally, mail that you've sent to the trash will be temporarily saved in a mailbox file called trash.mbox. All of these files are saved onto your My Documents folder and are accessible via the File Manager as well.Once Eudora starts up, the main screen will be displayed with a menu bar across the top. Along the left hand window will be a list of your mailboxes, and the large right hand window will be where messages are displayed as they are read. The menu options listed across the top should be File, Edit, Mailbox, Message, Transfer, Special, Tools, Window and Help. On the left should be at least an IN box, OUT box, and TRASH box.
