================================ EUDORA PRO FOR MACINTOSH 3.1.1 ================================ This is version 3.1.1 of Eudora Pro for Macintosh. This README provides information on the following topics: * Minimum Requirements * Drag and Drop Requirements * Installation * Compatibility * Bug Reports * Requests for Features * License and Legal Information ====================== MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS ====================== To use Eudora Pro for Macintosh, you must have the following: * A Macintosh Plus or later model. * Macintosh System 7.0 or later. * A mail account with an Internet service provider or an Internet-style network account. * Access to your mail account via a modem or Internet-style network connection. ============================ DRAG AND DROP REQUIREMENTS ============================ If you do not have Macintosh Drag and Drop® running on your Macintosh, certain features may be disabled. Macintosh Drag and Drop is included in System 7.5 and System 7 Pro, but is not in earlier versions of System 7. Macintosh Drag and Drop requires that Finder 7.1.3 or newer is running for the Drag and Drop extensions to work properly. Installing the Drag and Drop extensions with an older Finder has been shown to cause strange behavior, and is not recommended. If you are running a system version with a Finder that is older than 7.1.3, you will be able to drag and drop within the Eudora application. However, you will not be able to drag between Eudora and other running applications. ============== INSTALLATION ============== NOTE: In order to install this software, you must have Eudora Pro version 3.0 or later installed on your Macintosh! This update cannot be installed over any version of Eudora Light or over any pre-3.0 version of Eudora Pro. To install Eudora Pro for Macintosh 3.1.1, do the following: 1. Make a backup copy of your existing Eudora Folder (normally in your System Folder), and make a backup copy of your existing Eudora Pro Application Folder, and put the two copies in a separate area. 2. Quit any applications you are running. 3. Remove any plug-ins that did not come with the Eudora Pro software. 4. Restart your Macintosh while holding down the shift key. This turns off your Macintosh extensions. (You must hold down the shift key until you see the message "Extensions off.") 5. If you are installing from diskettes, insert the first Eudora Pro diskette into your Macintosh diskette drive. 6. Double-click on the Eudora Pro 3.0->3.1.1 Updater installation icon to start the installation program. The Eudora Pro splash screen is displayed. Click Continue to display the Eudora README window. Note: The contents of the README window can be printed or saved to a file for later review. 7. Once you have reviewed the contents of the README window, click Accept. The Eudora Install dialog is displayed. 8. Click Install. The Eudora Version Selection dialog is displayed, allowing you to select which version you want to install. 680x0 This is the smallest version. It runs on any Macintosh, including Power Macs, but on Power Macintoshes it is not as fast as the PowerPC or Universal versions. PowerPC This version runs only on Power Macintoshes. It does not run on standard 680x0 machines. Universal (or Fat) This version requires the most disk space. It runs on any Macintosh, and on a Power Macintosh runs as fast as the PowerPC version. 9. Select the version you want. A dialog is displayed asking you where you want to install the update. 10. Select the destination folder and click the Install button at the bottom of the dialog. The install program begins installing the items in the Eudora software update onto the appropriate locations on your disk. 11. If you are installing Eudora from diskettes, insert the appropriate installation diskette when you are prompted. 12. Once the installation is complete, restart your Macintosh with extensions on (do NOT hold down the shift key). This completes the installation of the Eudora Pro software. To find out how to set up Eudora so that you can send and receive e-mail, see the User Manual section "Opening and Configuring Eudora." For details about the files in the master Eudora Folder that has just been updated or installed in your System Folder (this holds all your mail and other important files), as well as the Eudora Pro Folder that contains your just-installed update, see their corresponding sections in the Reference chapter of the User Manual. (The Eudora Pro Folder is also called the Eudora Pro Application Folder: it is the folder that contains your Eudora application.) =============== COMPATIBILITY =============== System 6 -------- Symptom: Eudora refuses to run. Explanation: Sorry, Eudora does not run under System 6. Workaround: None. AppleTalk Remote Access: ----------------------- Symptom: you get an alert that says "the selected port is in use". Explanation: If you have ARA's "Answer calls" option selected (from Remote Access Setup from Setup), and you have Eudora configured to use the Communications Toolbox on the same port that ARA uses, Eudora may be unable to connect. This is a conflict between the Communications Toolbox and ARA. Workaround: Turn "Answer calls" off in ARA if you have this problem. Apple Modem Tool ---------------- Symptom: Eudora cannot login to your server, instead timing out during the navigation process. Explanation: Eudora is incompatible with version 1.0 of the Apple Modem Tool. Solution: You must use version 1.1 or later of the Apple Modem Tool, or the Hayes Modem Tool. We recommend the use of version 1.5 of the Apple Modem Tool. Moire ----- Symptom: 68040-based Macintosh crashes when Eudora is launched. Explanation: Eudora is incompatible with the screensaver "Moire", when run with the 68040 caches enabled in 32-bit mode. Workaround: We suggest the freeware screensaver "DarkSide". NOW Utilities 4.0/SuperBoomerang ------------------------------- Symptom: When launched, Eudora complains about being unable to open certain mailboxes, claiming they are "too large". Explanation: The "reopen documents" feature of SuperBoomerang is the problem It will not work as intended with Eudora, and it is really not necessary for Eudora anyway. Solution: You may disable this option by using the "Disable Re-Launch" menu in the "Exclude..." dialog in the SuperBoomerang control panel. Symptom: You cannot set your application to open TEXT files or your attachments folder. Explanation: Versions of NOW Utilities prior to 4.0.1 interfere with this aspect of Eudora. Solution: Upgrade to NOW Utilities 4.0.1 or later. Symptom: Eudora crashes when printing. Explanation: NOW Up-to-Date Reminder 2.0's Show Battery Status option causes crashes when Eudora is printing. Workaround: Turn Show Battery Status off. NOW is aware of the problem, and has promised to fix it. Norton Directory Assistance ------------------------- Symptom: The attachment folder does not change, even if you set it with the dialog. Explanation: Norton Directory Assistance interferes with this aspect of Eudora. Workaround: Hold down the option key before clicking the button in the Attachments dialog, and keep it down until the Standard File dialog opens. Global Village PowerPort Modems ------------------------------ Symptom: Attachments are sometimes corrupted or characters are lost in text messages. Explanation: Flow control in Powerbooks is very poor. Workaround: The best solution is to use version 1.5 of the Apple Modem Tool, set to "Software MNP" error correction. CAP/aufs -------- Symptom: Mailboxes are frequently corrupted. Explanation: CAP/aufs has a bug that causes problems with Eudora and a few other programs. Solution: A patch is available (#168); be sure you have it. KA-Share -------- Symptom: Attachments saved to KA-Share volumes cannot be opened from within Eudora. Explanation: KA-Share does not implement file id's. Workaround: Do not put your attachment folder on a KA-Share volume. Apollo ------ Symptom: Crashes. Explanation: Version 1.0 of the Apollo application launching utility cannot handle long window names (such as Eudora generates) if configured to sort windows alphabetically. Workaround: Use the Window menus page of the Preferences dialog to set the sorting to front-to-back. Greg's Buttons ------------- Symptom: Dialup Eudora does not work. Explanation: Versions of Greg's Buttons prior to 3.0 may interefere with the Communications Toolbox. Solution: Upgrade to Greg's Buttons 3.0 or later. FileGuard 2.5.1 ------------- There are reports of problems between Eudora and FileGuard 2.5.1. DoubleScroll 2.0.3 ---------------- Symptom: Eudora windows scroll off into oblivion. Explanation: DoubleScroll has a bug. Workaround: None. The author of DoubleScroll has promised a fix. MenuChoice 1.9 ------------- Symptom: Choosing an item from a submenu of the Apple menu causes strange dialogs and crashes in Eudora. Explanation: MenuChoice 1.9 has a bug. Solution: Get MenuChoice 2.0 or later. AutoDoubler ----------- Symptom: None Explanation: Eudora normally uses "asynchronous" i/o to files, enabling smoother operations to fileservers. AutoDoubler interferes with asynchronous i/o. Workaround: Eudora automatically disables asynchronous i/o if it finds AutoDoubler on your system. StuffIt SpaceSaver (Aladdin Systems) does not suffer from this problem, so you could also switch to that. Mac340 ------- Symptom: Strange font displays in Mac340 and/or Eudora. Explanation: Eudora and Mac340 both use private fonts, and there is an id conflict. Workaround: Use a font other than "Mishawaka" in Eudora. ============= BUG REPORTS ============= If you experience something you think might be a bug in Eudora Pro, please report it by sending a message to eudora-bugs@eudora.com.
