Window States and Tabbed Windows Eudora User Manual Managing Windows in Eudora Window States and Tabbed Windows Every window in Eudora exists in one of three states. ■ Normal ■ Docked ■ Floating You can use these different window states to set up Eudora the way you want to see it on your screen. These states are described below and in the following sections. A tabbed window is a collection of windows combined into a single window in which each window has its own tab, for activating and dragging.
Eudora User Manual Normal Windows Closing a tool window does not erase its contents, unless the contents are saveable and you choose to discard changes. When you close a tool window or a tabbed window, the content, state, and position of the window or of all windows in the tabbed window are preserved. The preservation of content is useful for “persistent data” such as filter reports and directory service queries.
Docked Windows Eudora User Manual A tool window in the normal state, whether alone or in a tabbed group, can be dragged out of the confines of the main Eudora window, but it must first be converted to a dockable or floating window. To perform this conversion, do the following. 1 To display the drop-down context menu, right-click the window’s border or tab. 2 To turn the command off, from the context menu choose Float In Main Window. The checkmark disappears.
Eudora User Manual Docked Windows Only tool windows, whether alone or tabbed, are dockable. All other windows in Eudora, particularly message windows and mailbox windows, are not dockable. Note. The main toolbar, although not a window, is also dockable to any edge of the main Eudora window or to another dockable window. Dockable windows can be docked to any edge of the main Eudora window and to each other. You can also dock multiple windows along a single edge of the main window.
Floating Windows Eudora User Manual Close Button The close button contains an “x” and appears next to the zoom button. Click the close button to close the docked window. Resize Bar When two windows are docked side by side along one edge of the main window, a bar appears between them, called the resize bar. Drag this bar up or down, or to the left or right, as appropriate, to enlarge one of the docked windows and reduce the other.
Eudora User Manual Tabbed Windows Therefore, a floating Eudora window floats above all other Eudora windows except other floating windows. The title bar of a floating window contains, in addition to the title, only the Close button. This distinguishes the window from a normal window when both appear to be in the window work area. A normal window’s title bar contains the window-menu icon and three standard buttons.
Tabbed Windows Eudora User Manual ■ It serves as a “drag handle” that lets you drag the tool window from one tabbed window to another, so that you can reorganize your tabbed windows and create new tabbed windows. Only tool windows, those windows accessible from the Tools menu, except the Options dialog box, can be combined into a tabbed window. All other windows in Eudora, particularly mailbox windows and message windows, cannot be combined into a tabbed window.
Eudora User Manual Tabbed Windows As described later in this section, you can reorganize these default tabbed windows any way you like. Your newly arranged tabbed window will be preserved when you quit and restart Eudora. Note. Due to file format incompatibilities, if you upgrade from a pre-4.0 version of Eudora, you will lose the previous docking state of your Mailboxes window and toolbar. Eudora will reset the toolbar and docking states to the default configuration noted above.
Tabbed Windows Eudora User Manual Creating a New Tabbed Window To create a new tabbed window, drag one of the tabs from an existing tabbed window and drop it onto an exposed portion of the window work area. If the window work area is completely obscured — a normal window is maximized, for example — then drop the tab onto the status bar. The dropped window converts into a normal tabbed window with a single tab. To convert the window to docked or floating, do the following.
Eudora User Manual Window Context Menu Closing Tabbed Windows To close a tabbed window, click the “x” close button in the upper-right corner of the window. Alternately, right-click any tab in the window or on the window border, and choose Hide from the drop-down context menu. Note that when you close or hide a tabbed window, the contents of all member windows, and the state and position of the tabbed window, are all preserved.
Window Context Menu Eudora User Manual Allow Docking This command controls the dockability of floating and docked windows. It is available only when the “Float In Main Window” command is deselected. It is not available for normal windows when “Float In Main Window” is selected. A checkmark next to the command indicates that it is selected. When this command is on for a docked or floating window, the window can be docked to any edge of the main Eudora window.

Mail Transport Introduction Eudora uses Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) to transfer your outgoing mail to your SMTP server machine, which in turn uses SMTP to send your mail to the world at large. Mail from the world at large arrives on your incoming Post Office Protocol (POP) or Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) mail server, where it waits for Eudora to pick it up with either POP version 3 or IMAP version 4.
Eudora User Manual Incoming Mail Incoming Mail When somebody sends you mail, other computers use the SMTP protocol to deliver the mail to your POP or IMAP server. Your POP or IMAP server puts mail in your “mail drop,” where it stays until the Eudora program picks it up. When you check your mail, Eudora uses POP version 3 or IMAP version 4 to pick up your mail and move it to your computer.
MAPI Technical Report Where to Get More Information on MAPI For more information, supplementary to this technical report, visit our online MAPI FAQ at the web site . What Does MAPI Do? Eudora’s MAPI support allows users to quickly attach documents to email messages directly from the application that created the document.
Eudora User Manual MAPI Overview MAPI Overview Let’s start with a picture: 16-bit MAPI client application 32-bit MAPI client application MAPI.DLL MAPI32.DLL Eudora Pro A MAPI client application is any 16-bit or 32-bit Windows application that knows how to access the standard MAPI messaging functions in a library known as a DLL (Dynamic Link Library). The functions in the MAPI DLL allow a MAPI client application to transparently and generically access a MAPI service provider.
Eudora Implementation of MAPI Eudora User Manual a user name and password to the mail system in order to “log on” to the mail system. (The Eudora implementation of MAPI does not implement authentication since Eudora itself requires authentication to access the POP3 and IMAP4 servers.) Eudora Implementation of MAPI Eudora implements a subset of the full MAPI library by providing two “replacement DLLs” for the standard Microsoft MAPI DLLs. The Eudora EUMAPI.
Eudora User Manual Eudora MAPI Shutdown Procedure 1 Check to see whether or not the Eudora MAPI DLLs are already installed in the Windows SYSTEM directory. If so, then you are finished. 2 Check for existing Microsoft MAPI.DLL and MAPI32.DLL files. If found, rename MAPI.DLL to MAPI.000 and rename MAPI32.DLL to MAPI32.000. (If a MAPI.000 file already exists, then Eudora uses MAPI.001, MAPI.002 etc.) 3 Copy the EUMAPI.DLL and EUMAPI32.
Eudora DLL Swapping Restrictions 7 Eudora User Manual Exit Windows. Once Eudora’s MAPI DLLs get into the wrong “state” with respect to Eudora, you cannot correct the state mismatch until all MAPI client applications unload the MAPI DLLs and Windows is able to unlock the DLL file. Since the MAPI DLLs are shared by multiple MAPI client applications, Windows does not unlock the MAPI DLL file until the last MAPI client application is shut down.

MIME and Mapping What Is MIME? MIME stands for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions. MIME serves two major purposes — it allows mail applications to tell one another what sort of data is in mail, and it also provides standard ways for mail applications to encode data so that it can be sent through the Internet mail system. MIME Encoding The Internet uses the SMTP protocol to move mail around. SMTP is limited to the US-ASCII character set (see the “Mail Transport” section of this manual).
Eudora User Manual MIME Labeling This corruption happens because SMTP cannot handle the special characters. However, if you and your recipient both have MIME, quoted-printable encoding would be used, and your text would show up properly: «Il est démontré, disait-il, que les choses ne peuvent être autrement; car tout étant fait pour une fin, tout est nécessairement pour la meilleure fin.
Practical Issues Eudora User Manual Turning Off Quoted-Printable Encoding Eudora automatically uses quoted-printable encoding if your mail contains special characters. Eudora also uses quoted-printable encoding for attached plain text files. If your recipients don’t have MIME, quoted-printable may hurt more than it helps. If that’s the case, just turn off the QP button in the message Toolbar when you are sending text files to those recipients.
Eudora User Manual Practical Issues Note that the Macintosh type from this map is empty. This allows multiple types to be recognized with just one mapping. This is nice for “in” maps because it allows you to cover a range of creator/type pairs with one map. You must be careful in using this type of map with an “out” or “both” mapping, though, because an outgoing attachment that matched this map would have a Macintosh creator, but no Macintosh type.
