- How do I configure Eudora for use with Spambayes?
- -------------------------------------------------
- 
- Note: The following instructions have been verified using Eudora 5.1
- under Windows. If anyone is using Eudora under Max OS please let us
- know if the configuration is the same as Windows.
- 
- Eudora does not allow configuring the server port through the
- normaloptions dialogue. However a large number of options are exposed
- in an intitialization file (eudora.ini) read at startup. The contents
- of the initialization file are documented by clicking on Help->Topics
- and searching on EUDORA.INI (you may want to print this help page for
- future reference.) Depending on how you installed Eudora, eudora.ini
- is located either in the Eudora install directory or the user's
- setting directory
- (C:\Documents and Settings\userid\ApplicationData\Qualcomm\Eudora\eudora.ini on my system.)
- 
- 1. Locate eudora.ini.
- 
- 2. Make two copies - eudoraok.ini for backup and eudorame.ini to
-    modify.
- 
- 3. Configure pop3proxy for each of Eudora's personalities' POP3
- servers, specifying a separate port for each. For example 1110, 1120,
- 1130 and 1140 for four personalities. Do the same for smtpproxy - for
- example 1115, 1125, 1135 and 1145 corresponding to the four POP3
- servers.
- 
- 4. Close Eudora.
- 
- 5. Open eudorame.ini with a text editor - wordpad for example. DO NOT
- USE A WORD PROCESSOR TO EDIT THE INITIALIZATION FILE.
- 
- 6. Ffind the section starting with [Settings]. This contains settings
- for the dominant personality.
- 
- 7. Find the line beggining POPAccount. The last part of the account
- name starting with @ is the server. Change it to @localhost.
- 
- 8. Find the lines beggining SMTPServer and POPServer. They will have
- the server names defined for your dominant personality.
- 
- 9. Change both server names to localhost
- 
- 10, Add the following two lines. Use whatever ports you assigned to
- pop3proxy and smtpproxy for the dominant personality.
- POPPort=1110
- SMTPPort=1115
- 
- 11. Setting for other personalities are kept in sections begging with
- [Persona-personality_name]. For each personality make the same changes
- as you made for the dominant personality, substituting the proper port
- numbers.
- 
- 12. Copy eudorame.ini to eudora.ini and re-start Eudora.
- 
- 13. In the password dialog for each personality you should see
- localhost where you used to see the actual server name. This may take
- some getting used to at first. Since every personality will now have a
- server named localhost you will have to know what order Eudora prompts
- for the user id's and passwords.
- 
- 14. If there are any problems, close Eudora, copy eudoraok.ini to
- eudora.ini and restart Eudora. This will restore Eudora's original
- configuration until the problem can be resolved.
