The address list is stored at the following places in the Eudora folder. 1) In the 'Eudora Nicknames' file.
2) In the various files inside the folder called 'Nicknames Folder'. 3) In the 'History List' file. This file is generated by the program from, I think, your outgoing messages. You can access any of these addresses in your current Eudora setup by moving any of these files into your current Nicknames Folder, making sure the filenames don't conflict with existing ones in that folder. Also, you can access any Eudora mailbox on any mounted volume by opening it in the finder. If it has the same name as an existing mailbox at the top level of your mail folder, you will need to rename it. You can also open any mailbox from within Eudora using the 'Other �' choice from the Mailbox menu or any submenu thereof, provided there's no mailbox with the same name at that level of the menu. - Aaron >To: "PCI PowerMacs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Date: Mon, 28 Jul 2003 09:08:52 +0800 >From: Charlie Reyes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: Eudora... can't access address book (again) > >Andrew Grebneff wrote: > >>I trashed all of my Eudora settings files (v6.0b18) and now the >>scrolling problem is cured. >> >>I managed to reactivate the mailboxes in the Mailboxe menu.
