Mailto Software for Eudora
NOTE: if you have Eudora Pro for Windows 3.0 or later, you don't need the Mailto software;
instead, use these instructions
on setting up Eudora to intercept mailto: URLs on web pages.
For Windows:
Mailto Watcher lets you automatically open a Eudora message
when you use a "mailto" URL in Netscape.
When you see an active e-mail address in Netscape, it probably has a
mailto URL behind it. That lets you click on the address to
automatically open an e-mail client and create a new mail message with
the correct address. With Mailto Watcher, Eudora is opened (if
necessary), and a new composition window is created with the e-mail
address placed in the To field.
For Macintosh:
Eudora Pro 3.1 or later:
If you're using Eudora Pro for Macintosh version 3.1 or later,
download this applescript (~1k) and run it. A window will open; simply follow the path to your local Netscape application and double click.
Netscape will now use Eudora when you click on a mailto link.
Eudora Pro 2.x and 3.0.x
Eudora mailto helper (d5) is a slight modification of Eudora GURL handler that works with
Eudora Pro 2.x and 3.0.x, that
- Does about the same thing as Eudora GURL handler
- Can be registered with netscape ( and internet explorer?) for the
mailto protocol
- Has the ability to handle multiple mail settings (e.g. for shared
macs) with or without the scriptable Finder.
Eudora mailto helper was written by Christian Huldt.

Dialup Scripts
If you are using a serial dialup connection, you need a dialup script
to log into your service provider's mail server. You can write a script
yourself, or check our ftp site's dialup directories, where we have a number of Windows and
Macintosh login scripts for various service providers.
NOTE: Before you embark on writing scripts, be sure you need them. A serial dialup connection
means that you don't have SLIP or PPP connectivity. If you can use a web browser
with your account, for example, you don't have a serial dialup connection,
and you don't need scripts.
