Alan, thanks for the instructions. Details are as follows:

>2]      Note down what it says in the "POP Account"

			Hard Disk:System Folder:Eudora Folder:Eudora Lo (then it runs off 
screen but I think it ends at log) - Is part of the problem because the 
! is missing from the beginning?

>5]      Pull down the "Users" menu. Drag down to the "Edit User" item. >How many users appear on the sub-menu that pops out.

			1-bob

>7]      About halfway down there should be a button lablled "Set Drop
>File".  Note down what it says beside this button.  It should be
>something like "user+f5de1". Let me know what it says in your reply.

			user+5edc4

>7b] A standard file dialog should open and it should be displaying a >folder containing a file with theodd name you have just noted=
 down. Let >me know whether it is or isn't.

			No - The dialogue box is headed Eudora Folder, inside of which are; 			Eudora Log(highlighted), Eudora nicknames, In, Out, Signat=
ure Folder, Trash.

>11]     Open the "Settings"/"Configuration" dialog again. What does the
POP3 account field say now? 

			Exactly the same as in question 1 - still no !

>Further questions:

>How do you launch Eudora?

			I open with config PPP first, then double-click Addmail (an alias to the app on the desktop), and use 'command-M' to check for ma=
il, then double click Eudora (again an alias on the desktop), and use 'command-M' to try to open the mail messages.

>Do you use any security software?

			No

I hope this time my answers are a little more accurate than previously.
I have followed your instructions scrupulously and am looking forward to your answer.

Thanks as always

Bob Clauson.
