Hello everyone.'
There has been discussion on this list concerning Eudora's tendency to
crash somewhere in the message session - either composition or message
reading. People who have experienced this seem to link Eudora's
interaction with Jaws as the basic cause.
Over the last few days, there has been discussion on other Eudora lists,
which link crashing with message saving: in other words - repeated message
saving during message composition seems to bring with it an unexplainable
crash.
So: I wonder if Jaws may not of itself be part of the problem, and wonder
if people should take a look at Eudora's settings. Message autosave is the
relevant setting, access via alt-t-o (tools, options) and then arrow to the
miscellaneous settings. Probably slight variations depending on Eudora
versions. When tabbing through, there is an edit box which allows to set
the minutes interval between message autosaves. I have mine set to 10 and
have never thought about it until now. It does meant hat if Eudora crashes
for any reason during the time it takes to compose this message, I should
be able to retrieve it up to the last auto-save.
I might be totally off knowing the problem that people are having: It
doesn't happen for me with Window-Eyes, but comments have been such that is
message save is too frequent, along with lots of other open windows being
processed, Eudora crashing occurs.
