Qualcomm 4.3 user manual Setting Eudora Preferences, Getting Started

Setting Eudora Preferences

Introduction

To display category windows where you can specify how you want to use Eudora, select Options from the Tools menu. By selecting or turning off criteria on these windows, you customize Eudora to suit your needs.

The many Options categories are described in this section. When you first install Eudora, the Options windows contain preset settings.

After you totally finished changing the settings in all categories, click OK. Your settings will be changed.

Note. For your convenience, some options appear in more than one category. For example, your return address appears in both the Getting Started options window and the Sending Mail options window. Changing an option in one category changes the option in all categories in which it appears.

Important. For advanced users only: if you need to use an Esoteric Settings plug-in, copy esoteric.epi from the Extra stuff subfolder into your main Eudora Pro folder. This will allow an interface to several features in your options settings. You will notice additional icons appearing at the end of the category list in Options.

Getting Started

On the Getting Started options window, you can determine the minimum information necessary to send and receive mail. The information here is for your “dominant” person- ality, which is your principal email account.

To display the Getting Started options window, do the following.

1From the Tools menu, choose Options.

2Click the Getting Started icon. The Getting Started options window appears.
