--=======8531FC9======= Content-Type: text/plain; x-avg-checked=avg-ok-5B7D74F0; charset=us-ascii; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Hi Evelyn, Using the suggestion of Debbie Schnell Woolard on this list I was able to configure Eudora 5.1 to include the "task status" on the screen. In Eudora 3 the progress report of the downloaded e-mails popped up during the download process and then vanished, so one did not have to find a permanent place for it on the screen. But I am happy enough to have it available anywhere.
