Windows 7 and Eudora 7.1: problems, problems and problems.

Hi, 3 days ago I have replaced Win XP with Windows 7 and since first
day I have problem with Eudora 7.1.
My problems are when Eudora downloads emails.
I have 6 account, Eudora downloads 3 accunts regularly, then gets
stuck on 3� account for 1 minute or more and then it goes again
regularly.
Therefore I have deleted the 3� account then I have done the download.
Eudora downloads 3 account regularly again then it gets stuck again.
Always the same problem.
Then ..... I have unistalled Eudora and deleted every trace on
registry then I have installed it again but now I have the same
problems.
Perhaps have I to replace Eudora 7 with Eudora 8?
I want to cry!!!! Help me please.
Thanks a lot.

PS. I have replaced beacause it is important for me new mailboxes with
old mailboxes and I replaced Eudora.ini. Perhaps is it my problem?

Eudora has a bit of a problem when it ownloads mail from an ISP that 
requires SSL <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSL>.  This is because Eudora 
and the ISP have to agree that the connection they have made is indeed 
secure.  It requires a bit of time for this "handshake" to be completed.  
This extra time is only needed the first time after Eudora starts up.  At 
the second time the mail is checked and later, the connection is fast.  
It may annoy you the first time but taking a deep breath is the best you 
can do.

In addition, depending on the speed of your computer and the bandwidth of 
your connection, you can adjust the number of simultaneous threads under 
Tools|Options|Threading.  This may require the esoteric.epi file to be 
copied from the extra stuff subdirectory to the main mail directory.  (I 
have it set for 10 threads, but he above SSL problem still happens to 
some extent).

I have copied esoteric.epi file from extra stuff subdirectory at
Eudora folder to the folder where there are mailboxes.
On Tools|Options|Threading I have read 10 for default. Have I to
change it? I have just tried with  5 but I have always these problem.
I don't understand if it is better to put a high number or the
contrary.
Thanks for your news.

I don't know whether a higher or lower number is better.  It depends on 
your connection to the internet.  If you get many times the error message 
that the connection has timed out, I would reduce the nmber of threads.  

But I think that you just have to get used to the initial delay.  It's a 
bit of a bother, but I usually let Eudora just run.  In fact I have set 
the program to NOT check mail unless I click on the get mail button, or 
use the equivalent keystroke [Ctrl-M].

Hope this helps!

I'm sorry but I don't remember how I have set 
the program to NOT check mail. Where have I to delete the flag?
Thanks a lot

Thank you.  I am not going to replace XP (the best Windows yet made)
until they pry it out of my cold dead body's hands :)

Although not directly related to the explicit issue you mention,
it is good to check "Help" > "About Eudora"
and make sure that the "Data:" path (for all mail and settings)
is NOT contained within the system "program files" folder,
where, unless the security features are deliberately disabled,
Vista and Windows 7 do not permit applications to write or update anythi=
ng
(i.e. your mail and settings will never get updated,
so they should never be stored there).

Does that account's incoming server use SSL?

Does "stuck, and then it goes again regularly"
mean that after launching Eudora,
only the very first "check mail" is delayed
(or its remote server may even time out and disconnect),
but then "check mail" is never again delayed,
so long as Eudora remains running?

This does not cause any data loss, even if the remote server
is impatient and disconnects -- there is only one pause,
only once after Eudora is first launched,
then never again as long as Eudora is running.

For more (and possibly surprising) info about this, see:

I'm sorry if I am not expert. Where can I verify if my Eudora uses SSL
server?

Sure, it is so ok. You are right.

Yes you are right.

Now I am enough happy. I have just followed your suggestion about this
link and I have chosen Win 95 compatibility. Now Eudora works fine but
....... now I have a little and different problem. I see Eudora with a
different colour but especially the Windows 7 taskbar (on the bottom)
is no longer transparent but it has become heavenly. I have this
problem when Eudora is opened. If I shut down Eudora everithing is
normal.

Thanks for your suggestions.

> Where can I verify if Eudora uses SSL

It's the servers you specify in Eudora for your accounts,
which may or may not use SSL,
according to what each server operator tells you
(they don't all tell me :)

For each server, there is one of the following choices:

Secure Sockets (SSL) when Receiving (for incoming servers)

Secure Sockets (SSL) when Sending (for outgoing servers)

You have made those choices yourself
(hopefully according to instructions you got from server operators :)

> I have just followed your suggestion about this link...
> and I have chosen Win 95 compatibility. Now Eudora works fine but...

As the Qualcomm forum post suggested,
setting Eudora's "compatibility mode" to a very old version of Windows
may have some other effect, besides just on SSL negotiation.

Windows 7 (and Vista) may even have to suspend some of its own display features,
it would appear, to accommodate such modes in any application that is running.

Apparently you can have "either, or" but not everything you want, all at the same time.

Like some other aspects of life :)

Best wishes and happy new year.
