I was a died in the wool MH user. Then switched to Netscape. Then Thunderbird. I liked having my email in plain text files that could be moved from desktop to desktop to desktop as I upgraded my hardware. Simple. Reliable. |
Yeah, Eudora does that . . . and it turns
out that the problem is not on my end.
My email server is having trouble getting
the handshake for outbound mail. Matt
runs my website and email server . . . I'll
have to bug him about it.
Eudora has served me well for decades. It doesn't
need to 'install' to run under windows. In fact,
when on the road, I can move and run three separate email
accounts on my travel laptop out of a thumbdrive . . .
then put the whole thing back on the desktop when
I get home.
The plain text archives have proven valuable
several times when I had to find a conversation
based on a short character string.
Sometimes, the best way to drive a nail is
with a hammer . . . and Eudora has proven
a capable hammer. I think Matt uses it too.

Matt tells me that my personal sent-messages portal
for aeroelectric.com has been moved to exploit
the features in the Barracuda firewall. The
firewall manages inbound traffic for
all the lists and depending on the rate of
spam hits, it may take up to a minute
before a request is acknowledged and
accepted for relay.
First we're bombarded with robo calls
at all hours of the day (had to give
up my land-line number of 60+ years)
and now our valued email server is
getting bogged down with rotten
eggs as well . . . 3$%#$ (expletive
deleted).
