On my box, I am able to use eudora no matter how I connect to the internet. I am not aware of having had to change any settings. I think eudora assumes I'm connected to a lan and uses whatever connection I have to the net to retrieve and send mail. The only thing I did, I think, was to make sure that it does not try to hang up the connection after it's done checking mail. Also you may want to check the option in Eudora that lets it check for mail automatically only if there is a connection to the net. this means you'd need to start your internet connection automatically but I have done that for as long as I'm online. <g> Cheers, Doris At 08:17 AM 1/18/2005 -0500, you wrote: >You can copy over the files, but still may have to go into options to >finish up a few things. > >At 07:22 AM 1/18/2005, you wrote: > >i now have a really nice ibm think pad. i want to be able to use eudora > >both with a wireless connection to the internet, and a phone line. > >is there a way to automate the process so that i don't have to reconfigure > >the machine? > > > > > >List web page: //www.freelists.org/webpage/blindeudora > >Send all list problems or inquires to: blingeudora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > >to un subscribe: > >blindeudora-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject > > field > >Tim >Blindeudora list owner. > > > >List web page: //www.freelists.org/webpage/blindeudora >Send all list problems or inquires to: blingeudora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx >to un subscribe: >blindeudora-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject > field List web page: //www.freelists.org/webpage/blindeudora Send all list problems or inquires to: blingeudora@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx to un subscribe: blindeudora-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the Subject field
