Eudora will only receive mail via a Pop server, which demon only provide at
an extra fee. You need a program which will recieve mail via SMTP.

The neatest way to do this is to download the excellent AddMail, which will
receive mail, and process it into a form which can then be picked up by
Eudora. This will allow you to use Eudora to both send and receive.

AddMail does almost all the necessary configuring for you and the clear
manual explains everything. You can ftp it from demon.

best,
