Stationary in Eudora is not the same thing as in OE. It's not that "pretty" graphic intensive stuff that comes with OE. In Eudora, stationary is very useful for when you send the same message numerous times. For example, you can set up a stationary for one of your brickwalls, say your Smith family, and in that message you would have a one or two generation descendant outline for that family. Then when you want to send a message to someone or reply to someone about this family, you would then choose either the "New Message with" or "Reply With" then your stationary of choice. Your message comes up all typed out and you send it. To create a piece of stationary, first you open a new blank message. Don't address it to anyone. In the body, put what you want to be in the body. Then do the following from the main menu: File > Save as Stationary Give it a name that you know what it will be. Now you're ready to use your stationary whenever the occasion arises. I hope this answers your questions about the stationary feature in Eudora. Debbie Woolard djwoolard@earthlink.net

Is there a way to send a message with a color background in Eudora Vs 5.1? Eudora has so many bells and whistles I just can't believe I can't find it! thanks, Patije

Folks, I have had to cut back. I just didn't have time to administer all of the Mailing Lists that I manage. So, that said, your new List Manager is Debbie Woolard . Debbie is a dedicated user of Eudora, and a knowledgeable Rootsweb Mailing List Manager. She will a wonderful List Manager, and knows here way around "stationery" and using "X-Commands" for getting things done on a List. (I will, of course, continue to be a subscriber to this List, and will do whatever I can to help other Eudora users, "newbies" or "old timers".) Good Luck Debbie, SgtGeorge George W.

(Courtesy of Robert BROYLES, who forwarded it to me.) BURY ME WITH SOLDIERS: I've played a lot of roles in life; I've met a lot of men. I've done a lot of things I'd like to think I wouldn't do again. And though I'm young, I'm old enough To know someday I'll die. To think about what lies beyond, And beside whom I would lie. Perhaps it doesn't matter much; Still, if I had my choice, I'd want a grave amongst Soldiers when At last death quells my voice. I'm sick of the hypocrisy Of lectures of the wise. I'll take the man, with all the flaws, Who goes, though scared, and dies. The troops I knew were commonplace, They didn't want the war; They fought because their fathers and Their fathers had before. They cursed and killed and wept... God knows they're easy to deride. But bury me with men like these; They faced the guns and died. It's funny when you think of it, The way we got along. We'd come from different worlds to live In one where no one belongs, I didn't even like them all; I'm sure they'd all agree. Yet, I would give my life for them; I know some did for me. So bury me with soldiers, please, Though much maligned they be. Yes, bury me with soldiers, For I miss their company. We'll not soon see their likes again; If we've had our fill of war. So bury me with men like them, I cannot ask for more. Author unknown

HOW TO USE THE ARCHIVES: There are two ways to access the Archives: SEARCH or BROWSE (NOTICE: The URLs for the search engines are "case sensitive", that is, you must follow instructions given below, and type in the List's name as shown. For "Searches", the List name must be in ALL CAPS; for "Browsing", the List name must be in all "non caps".) 1) SEARCH the Archives for specific messages by searching for names, words, phrases, etc. Use this URL and substitute the name of the List for XXXXX: http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=XXXXX (In other words, you would replace XXXXX with SMITH to search the SMITH Mailing List for something. In this SEARCH you MUST type the name in ALL CAPS. Another example would be to replace XXXXX with EUDORA-MAIL, VIRUS-DISCUSSION, or WINDOWS- FOR DUMMIES, etc.) Once at the appropriate page, you would type in the word or words, and select the year to search. Some Lists have been in existence since 1996, while others are relatively new, starting in 2000 or 2001. (See the end of this message for tips on how to type in the proper format for searches of more than on word.) 2) BROWSE the Archives to go from message to message, month by month, year by year: Use this URL and substitute the name of the List for xxxxx: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/xxxxx (Replace xxxxx with the appropriate surname, e.g. smith. In this search, you MUST type the name in non-caps. Again, for non- surname Lists, examples would be eudora-mail, virus-discussion, or windows-for-dummies, etc.) On the first page, you will see a list of Months and Years, starting with the first Month/Year the List became active, up to the present Month/Year. You will also see the total number of List messages for each Month/Year. Let's say that you want to look at all the posts for April 2001. Scroll down the list until you find that Month/Year. Click on it and you will be taken to a new page which shows all the posts for April 2001, initially arranged by "Thread". That means that, starting at the top, you will see the earliest posts, arranged chronologically for "original" posts. If someone has "replied" to any "original" post, the "replies" will be under the "original", which will make some email dates out of chronological order. You can click the "Display in" box and choose "Chronological" instead of "Threaded", which will put ALL posts in date order and NOT arranged by "Thread". I would suggest you put check marks in "With Names" and "With Dates" so that you can see who sent the emails and on what dates they were sent. EXTREMELY IMPORTANT !!!!! If you do a BROWSE, you cannot search for a word or words; what you will see will be all the emails for a specific month/year, either arranged by date, or by "thread". Initially, senders' names and dates of posting will not be shown. You need to put check marks in the two boxes and click "Redisplay" to see the names and dates. This is why it is VERY, VERY IMPORTANT that when you post an email to a List, or reply to an email, you MAKE SURE your subject line is descriptive of what you are sending. These BROWSE pages give lists of emails by SUBJECT LINES !!!!! Thus, if you are subscribed to the -D (Digest mode) List, and you reply to an email contained within the Digest, and DON'T change the subject line, it will look something like this: Re: GERMANNA_COLONIES-D Digest V01 #104 So, your reply gets Archived with THAT subject line. What does that tell searchers when they are using the BROWSE utility? Absolutely NOTHING!!!!! In short, if you're a -D (Digest mode) subscriber, CHANGE THE SUBJECT LINE to match that of the email within the Digest before replying. Please!!!!! A word about using the SEARCH feature. You will have to experiment to find out how to best word your queries. It seems that Rootsweb has improved the search engine so that you can do a search for phrases, BUT you have to know how to do so. Example: If you search for "john broyles", you will get all the pages that have BOTH of those words in emails, but not necessarily both together. If you search for "john and broyles", the "finds" or "hits" will be the same as above for "john broyles". If you search for "john+broyles", you will get only emails that have "John Broyles" in them. About phrases: Let's say you are looking for the phrase "only evidence was a misreading" in an email. Typing it exactly that way won't work. You have to put a "+" between each word in order to search for that phrase, e.g., "only+evidence+was+a+misreading" THAT works! But, with experimentation, that is about as long a phrase I have been able to use and have the search engine find it. Anything longer seems to mess up the mind of the engine.

Thanks very much to Lori and Debbie for helping me make sure that I back up my several Address Books and Mail folders. I will just back up the whole Eudora Mail folder, and encompass everything.

There is a way you can do this. Open your Address book. Click the new button. Give it a nickname like Family. Then put a name in the Name section that you don't mind everyone seeing. Then type in the addresses you want, one per line, in the section called "This Nickname will expand to the following addresses". Below is an example of a test I just did. I have two other email address so I made an address book entry that in the Nickname I put "Myself" (without quotes) and in the Name section I put "Me", in the section to list the addresses, I put my other two email address and sent it from this account. This is what I got back. >Date: Sat, 19 May 2001 00:07:01 -0500 >To: Me:; >From: Debbie & Jeff Woolard <djwoolard@earthlink.net> >Subject: Test >Mime-Version: 1.0 >Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed > >Testing to see what comes back As you can see, all that shows up in the TO: section is what I put in the Name section.

Dean, Just list the family addresses in a stationary file. Go to Message > New Message Type at least one address in the To: You have the option to list the rest in the To:, Cc:, or Bcc: Go to File > Save As Stationary When the Pop-up box appears, type a file name, then click Save When you want to send an email to the family go to Message > New Message With [whatever you named the file] A pre-addressed e-mail will open.

I am in the process of backing up some of my files/folders etc. and can't seem to locate the Eudora Address Book. But, I am backing up the following folder, so if it's included in there, then all should be okay?? c:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora Mail Thanks, .............................................................

If you change ISP's, yes, major editing of the connection stuff. If you keep the ISP, then all you need to change is how Eudora or any other program looks for the internet. If you don't currently us a firewall, now is the time to get one and use it!

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You, Debbie! I do believe this is what was happening. I did not have this checked off in the Tools before. (I've only been using Eudora since January.) AND I KNOW I've been scanning everything before opening. I didn't realize when I was deleting the Snow white, etc. Ha ha ha (not opening first) that it all wasn't being deleted. Thanks so much for clearing this up -- very simply - and restoring my sanity! ;-) Linda At 08:45 AM 05/17/2001, you wrote: >>The file in quarantine is this - >> >>c:/Program Files/Qualcomm\Eudora\attach\joke.exe >> >>Somewhere in NAV (more info) I read "this virus destroys the program it >>infects.
