Hmmm, if you have your copy of Eudora on the machine you're presently using, you should be able to download your e-mail directly to it no matter which ISP you're presently using. Certainly, I've done if for years from various locations using different hardware connections to the web as well as, of course, multiple ISPs. Have you tried running Eudora and doing that, exactly as if you're at home? I've never had to change Eudora's settings to do it, but depending on what Shaw expects, you may need to, but at least it IS possible. The only drawback is that you can't send mail from Eudora under those circumstances, but you can use the web mail for that.
