Plug-ins (Extended Messaging Services)

Plug-ins are special add-ons that can be installed to add features to Eudora. For example, you could use a language conversion plug-in to translate a message to another language, a security plug-in to automatically secure a message, or a text manipulation plug-in to change lowercase to uppercase. Plug-ins interface to Eudora using the Extended Messaging Services Application Programming Interface (EMSAPI).

To make plug-ins available to Eudora, put them in the Plugins directory in your Eudora directory, then restart Eudora. Depending on the plug-in type, it will be available in Eudora in the following ways:

The Message Plug-ins submenu (under the Edit menu) typically includes plug-ins that are used to modify the text of a message. These are referred to as on-request plug-ins. Some samples of these types of plug-ins are available with Eudora: Sort, UpperLower, and Unwrap.

Icons in the message window are typically for plug-ins that are used to manipulate messages as they are sent or when they are received. These are referred to as on-transmission and on-display plug-ins.

The Tools menu typically includes plug-ins that are used to do tasks that are not directly related to Eudora functions. These are referred to as tools plug-ins.

The Attach submenu (under the Message menu) typically includes plug-ins that are used to create and attach particular files to a message. These are referred to as attachment plug-ins. (Example: QUALCOMM’s PureVoice™ voice-messaging plug-in, for recording and attaching voice messages to your outgoing messages.)

Plug-ins that are automatically used when a message is received are not available through the user interface. These are referred to as on-arrival plug-ins.

To see all of your currently installed plug-ins, select Message Plug-ins Settings... from the Special menu. The Installed Message Plug-ins dialog appears. If an installed plug-in has any settings options, you can use the Settings... button to change them. For information about available plug-ins, send e-mail to <eudora-rep@eudora.com>or visit the World Wide Web site <http://www.eudora.com>.
