========================
Eudora Light for Windows
========================

-------------
Version 1.5.2
-------------

This is the freeware version of Eudora for Windows. There is also a
commercial version of Eudora called Eudora Pro (Version 2.0 and
above).  If you would like information about the commercial version, a
brief description is provided in the Help menu of this freeware.  Select
About Eudora Pro to display this dialog. You can also subscribe to
the QUALCOMM Enterprise Software Technologies (QUEST) mailing list by
selecting QUEST News from the Help menu.  This list will provide
subscribers with occasional information about Eudora, Eudora Pro,
and other QUEST products.

The latest version of Eudora Light can be found on ftp.qualcomm.com, in the
directory quest/windows/eudora/1.5.  The Windows freeware user manual can also
be found on ftp.qualcomm.com, in the directory
quest/windows/eudora/documentation.  The user manual is formatted in Word for
Windows version 2.0 format.

Both the freeware and its documentation can also be retrieved via e-mail
using QUALCOMM's list server. To obtain the freeware, send a message to
majordomo@qualcomm.com with the body text as follows:

get freeware Win/Eudora.hqx

Alternatively, if you want the file delivered in uuencode format rather
than BinHex, use the following message:

get freeware Win/Eudora.uu

To obtain the user manual, send a message to majordomo@qualcomm.com with
the body text as follows:

get freeware Win/doc.hqx

Alternatively, if you want the file delivered in uuencode format rather
than BinHex, use the following message:

get freeware Win/doc.uu

The files will be returned to you as message attachments. Note that they
are large files and may take some time to download to your desktop.


--------------------
Minimum Requirements
--------------------

Eudora Light requires the following:

    - IBM PC compatible machine
    - MS Windows Version 3.1
    - WinSock v1.1 compliant TCP/IP stack
    - Microsoft (or compatible) mouse (highly recommended)
    - At least 750KB of free disk space (more depending on mailbox sizes)


------------
Installation
------------

Install Eudora as follows:

1.  Create a new directory on your PC for the Eudora files
    (C:\EUDORA is a good choice).

2.  Copy the Eudora Light executable file (EUDORA.EXE) into the
    directory you created in step 1.

3.  Add the following environment variable to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:

           SET TMP=C:\TMP                 (or some temp directory)

           Make sure that this directory exists.

4.  Run Windows and add Eudora as a Program Item to a new or existing
    Program Group.

If you wish your mail files to reside somewhere other than where the
executable resides, then you can set the mail directory by specifying the
directory as the first parameter on the command line of the Program Item
that you create for Eudora.

This is also useful if you want to have multiple users on one PC, each with
their own mail directory.  Eudora will use the directory on the command
line first.  If that isn't present, the directory where the executable
resides will be used.

Note:   Always keep the Help file in the same directory as the executable.


-------------
Configuration
-------------

The first time you run Eudora you will have to edit some of the
configuration information in order to be able to send and receive mail.

Select Settings... from the Special Menu.

The fields you need to review are:

POP Account:  To use Eudora, you must have an account on a computer that
runs a POP3 server.  This is the account to which your e-mail messages are
delivered before they are transferred to the Eudora program on your PC.  In
this field, type your login name for this account and the full (domain)
name of the computer, separating them with an "@" sign.  For example, if
your assigned login name is "carolyn," and the name of the computer where
you receive e-mail is "uxh.cso.uiuc.edu," type "carolyn@uxh.cso.uiuc.edu"
in this field.

Real Name:  Type your real name.  Your name, as it appears here, is
displayed in parentheses after your return address in your outgoing mail.
It is also displayed in the sender column of all messages you send.

SMTP Server:  To send mail, a computer with an SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer
Protocol) server program is necessary.  You need not have a login to this
computer, but you must have access to it through your network.  If the
computer on which you have your POP account is also an SMTP server, leave
this field blank.  Otherwise, specify the name of the computer you want to
use as your SMTP server.

Return Address:  Normally, Eudora uses your POP account as your return
address.  If you wish to use a return address other than your POP account,
enter it here.


If you have the New Mail Notification "Sound" switch on, then when new mail
arrives, you will hear a notification sound.  In order for this to work,
your system must have a properly configured sound board, or you must have
installed the Sound Driver for PC-Speaker (anonymous ftp from
ftp.qualcomm.com the file /quest/windows/utils/SPEAK.EXE).  Eudora has a
built-in sound, but if you wish to supply your own, it must be in .WAV
format.  To change the default new mail sound, select the Settings... menu
item in the Special menu, and then select the Getting Attention category.
Select the button under the "Play a sound" checkbox, and a dialog will
prompt you for the sound file.

Note that this driver will only work for the Windows 3.X operating system.
It will not work for Windows NT or Windows 95.


If the mail you are sending is bouncing back to you saying that the message
does not have a Date: header, add the following entry to your EUDORA.INI
file:

[Settings]
TimeZone=xxxnnnyyy

where xxx, yyy are timezone abbreviations like PST, PDT, CDT, and nnn is
the offset in hours WEST of GMT (i.e., those that are east of GMT should
enter a negative number here).  xxx is the timezone during Standard Time
and yyy is the timezone during Daylight Savings Time.  If you do not change
your clocks during Daylight Savings Time, leave yyy blank.
Here's some samples:
     TimeZone=PST8PDT
     TimeZone=EST5EDT
     TimeZone=MET-1

If you don't specify a TimeZone entry, then a Date: header will not be put
in outgoing messages, which is fine for most users because their mail
server will insert the correct Date: header.  The moral is - if you don't
get messages bounced because of a missing Date: header, then leave the
TimeZone entry alone.


---------------
TCP/IP Services
---------------

Eudora makes use of several different TCP/IP services, and has default port
numbers for these services.  Most sites put these services on the default
ports, but some may not.  Contact your site network administrator to make
sure that the following services listed below are indeed on the default
port numbers.  If they aren't, you'll have to make some changes to some
configuration file(s) in your TCP/IP package (usually to a SERVICES file).

Below are a list of the services which Eudora uses, and what they might
look like in a typical services file.  The names of these services must be
exactly as named here (e.g., the entry for the POP3 service must be "pop3"
and not "pop-3").  Make sure that you make any changes necessary for your
TCP/IP package to specify the location of the SERVICES file.

To send mail:
        smtp      25/tcp

To receive mail:
        pop3      110/tcp

To use Ph (if your site has a Ph server):
        csnet-ns  105/tcp

To use Finger (if your site supports finger):
        finger    79/tcp

To use the Change Password... function in Eudora, your site must have a
password changing server installed.  See the directory
quest/unix/servers/password on ftp.qualcomm.com for examples of password
changing servers):
        epass   106/tcp

There are also entries in the [Settings] section of the EUDORA.INI
file for default port numbers of services.  These are provided for setups
in which the SERVICES file cannot be modified.  Do not use these entries
unless the services are not on default port numbers and you cannot modify
them in your TCP/IP package.  Here are sample INI entries:

[Settings]
SMTPPort=25
POPPort=110
PHPort=105
FingerPort=79
EudoraPassPort=106

Bug Reports
-----------

If you experience something you think might be a bug in Eudora, please
report it by sending a message to pc-eudora-bugs@qualcomm.com.  Describe what
you did, what happened, what version of Eudora you have, any error messages
Eudora gave (the numbers in ()'s are especially important), what kind of
computer you have, what operating system you're using, and anything else you
think might be relevant.

You will receive an automated response indicating that your bug report has
been received and forwarded to our enigineering staff.  Unless additional
information is needed, you will not receive a direct response.

There's an application called Dr. Watson in your Windows directory
(DRWATSON.EXE) that will write some important debugging information to a
log file (DRWATSON.LOG, also in the Windows directory) and also prompt you
to jot down a few words about what you were doing whenever a crash occurs.
This information is extremely helpful for tracking down PC problems.  It is
recommended that you run Dr. Watson whenever you're running Windows.  That
way, if you should have a GPF when using Eudora, you can include the Dr.
Watson log file with your bug report (Win32 users, be sure to send a Win16
Dr. Watson log, not a Win32 one).

The entries are appended to the end of the log file, so it can grow very
large.  Periodically delete the file to keep its size to a minimum. When you
include a log file as part of a bug report, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, edit
the log file so that only the pertinent part(s) are included.


---------------------
Requests For Features
---------------------

From time to time, everyone comes up with an idea for something they'd like
their software to do differently.  This is true of all applications, no less
Eudora.  If you come across an idea that you think might make a nice
enhancement to Eudora, your input is always welcome.  Please send any
suggestions or requests for new features to eudora-suggest@qualcomm.com.

You will receive an automated response indicating that your suggestion has
been received and forwarded to our enigineering staff.  Unless additional
information is needed, you will not receive a direct response.

Developer's Note
----------------

Eudora Light is postcardware!

If you try out Eudora, and decide that you'd like to use it on a regular
basis, then just send a postcard to the following address:

Jeff Beckley
QUEST
QUALCOMM Incorporated
6455 Lusk Blvd.
San Diego, CA  92121-2779
USA

Postcards that have something to do with where you live are an especially
good choice, as I like to see all the interesting places that Eudora is
being used.  Humorous or unusual postcards are a favorite of mine, and you
never know when I may decide that someone's postcard was interesting enough
to make them a tester for the commercial version of Eudora.
