 Go spelunking about the Eudora site, ISTR they made the code available
 for free when they stopped supporting it.

I read that somewhere too, but couldn't find anything on their site.
But, Googling around I did locate a June 2005 code that worked.
So, I'm good to go for now.

I was under the impression that this is what the 'Archive' option in  
the Mailbox menu did. From Apple's help menu: (this is Mail v 3.6 in  
OS 10.5)

Archiving mailboxes
You can archive (create a backup copy) of a mailbox so you can  
retrieve messages if needed.

To archive a mailbox:
1) Select one or more mailboxes to archive.
Shift-click to select mailboxes that are next to each other in the  
list, or Command-click to select mailboxes that are not next to one  
another.

2) Choose Mailbox  Archive Mailbox, or choose Archive Mailbox from  
the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear) at the bottom of the sidebar.

3)Choose a folder or create a new folder where you want to store the  
archives, and then click Choose.
Mail archives the mailboxes as .mbox packages. If you’ve already  
archived a mailbox, Mail does not overwrite the existing file but  
appends a number to the filename to create a new version of it.


Otherwise, my iCal, AddressBook, and Mail all get backed up  
automatically along with the rest of my data with Time Machine or  
Carbon Copy Cloner. I'll only use the in-application backup utilities  
for exporting my data, not backing it up.

Re: Quicksilver hardware problems

   733 mhz Quicksilver
  bad RAM and a bad hard drive

  Both were bad?!

Yes, one stick of memory was bad (as per memtest) and the hard drive
had errors that I couldn't correct (I don't have any 3rd party
software for this, and I had spare drives anyway).

Couldn't bad memory cause disk problems?

While it's possible, I guess, that corrupted data from a bad stick of 
memory could be written to a HD, thus corrupting the file system 
thereon There is no way a bad memory stick can physically damage 
a HD and vice versa.

   for a couple of months. After that it wouldn't start up at all -- the
  light on the switch comes on and the fans spin for a few seconds, then
  nothing. I checked the voltages on the power supply and they seem
  fine. From various sources on the web, I surmised that either the
  logic board or the processor was dead. Fortunately, I have a working
  QS 2002 with an 800 mhz processor. I swapped processors, but then
  neither computer worked. The original non-working one behaved the same
  as before. The QS 2002 with the swapped processor started with no
  chime and no video. There's nothing wrong with the 800 mhz processor
  -- I put it back in the QS 2002 and it works fine. I'm thinking that
  both the logic board and the processor are bad. How likely is this?
  Any other suggestions for diagnosing the problem(s)?

   Have you replaced the PRAM battery?

I didn't replace it, but it checks out OK on a voltmeter.

Testing with a voltmeter is insufficient - that doesn't measure the 
power availble under load.

Replace it with a new one.

If the machine doesn't bong after doing so, then disconnect things - 
simplify the system.  Remove all extra cards, all memory, disconnect 
the HD(s).  With the memory missing, you should at least get multiple 
beeps, the indication from the self-test that it can't find the 
memory.  If that doesn't work, try reseating the processor.  If that 
doesn't work, the problem could be the PS.

Re: So-So ethernet in iMac G5 iSight,

What causes my ethernet in my iMac G5 iSight,to be on  off,

Faulty ethernet cable.

Dying interface - shorted or zapped by a power surge.

How also to test the iMac ethernet, without hooking up the DSL modem?
and check to see if it is working OK?

Connect the ethernet to a hub, switch, or other mac.  Turn on TCP/IP 
and see if the green light comes on and stays on.

If connected to another Mac, then turn on AppleTalk.  If AppleTalk 
over ethernet will come up then the interfaces are working.
