Eudora 1.5.2

Eudora1.5.2Fat is the Power PC-savvy version of Eudora, but works fine on non-Power PC Macintoshes. Its main function is to allow you to send and receive e-mail. Eudora uses the information from Map (the control panel) to know what time zone it is in. If you haven't set up Map before, you must do that first.

Setting up Map

Open up the "Control Panels."
Find "Map," it has a picture of the globe. Double-Click to open it.
If you have already set up the city and time zone (It should be -5 for residents in Eastern Standard Time), then skip this step.

Type "Washington" and click on "Find." The Latitude, Longitude, and Time Zone will be accurate enough for what Eudora wants. If you want to change the name of the city to the one you live in, you can.

Click on "Set" to save these settings.

Close "Map." Close "Control Panels."

Setting up Eudora

Double-Click Eudora to open it.
A "Settings" dialog box will open up. You will see "Getting Started" highlighted.
Enter your e-mail address in the "POP Account." This will follow the format of johndoe@mailhost.wynn.com (where you would replace johndoe with your wynn.com user name).
Enter your real name for "Real Name."
"Connection Method" is MacTCP.
"Offline" should be unchecked (no x inside the box).
Cick on "Personal Information," which is right below "Getting Started."
You will see some information already entered. You need to put your e-mail address for "Return address." This is the same as your POP account.
Cick on "Hosts" which is right below "Personal Information."
Put "mailhost.wynn.com" in the "SMTP" prompt.
Put "mailhost.wynn.com" in "Finger" prompt.
"Ph" is left blank and "DNS load balancing" is left unchecked.
The rest of the parameters can be left the way they are. Press "OK."
Select the "File" menu and choose "Quit." This is necessary to follow the "Using Eudora" instructions below.

Eudora is now set up.

Note: Eudora saves all of its data in the newly created "Eudora" folder inside your "System Folder."
