Eudora .ini Settings
The
EUDORA.INI file is where Eudora keeps most of the settings. It is a standard
Windows INI file, and can be edited with any text editor.
Note: Since Windows caches information from INI files in memory while the
program is running, you should never change the EUDORA.INI file while Eudora is
in use. If you need to make a change, first quit Eudora, then edit the file,
and then restart Eudora.
The EUDORA.INI file is divided into a number of sections, the following of
which appear by default:
- [Settings]
- [Mappings]
- [Window Position]
- [Tool Bar]
- [DirectoryServices]
- [Debug]
Only the items that are not configurable from the Options dialog are listed
below. (See the special note about the [Tool Bar] section below.)
The
following sections will appear in the INI file only when the appropriate
conditions are met or the appropriate items created:
- [Personalities] The [Personalities] section appears only when you have created alter-nate
e-mail accounts (personalities)
- [Stationery] The [Stationery] section appears only when you have created stationery
files
- [Open Windows] The [Open Windows] section appears only when there are windows
currently open in Eudora
- [WazooBars] The [WazooBars] section appears only when normal Eudora windows are
currently open or minimized on the desktop (and thus buttons appear on the Eudora
taskbar, which is what this section controls)
- [Recent File List] The [Recent File List] section appears only when files have been
opened since the most recent Eudora startup
NOTE: We strongly urge that you do not change the values in these
optional sections of the INI file, and rather make any changes from the
interface. For example, personalities can be created and edited from the
Personalities window, and stationery can be created and edited from the
Stationery window. Both windows are available from the Tools menu.
The values of the settings in each of these optional sections reflect the
current values of the objects or conditions: there are no "default" values per
se.
The
default name for the file is EUDORA.INI and the default location is in the mail
directory. But the name and location of the file can be changed.
To specify an INI file that is different from the EUDORA.INI and is not in the
mail directory, add a second parameter to the command line in the Program Item
for Eudora. For example:
Command Line: c:\apps\eudora.exe c:\mymail c:\inis\myeudora.ini
To use an INI file that is different from the EUDORA.INI but is in the mail
directory:
Command Line: c:\apps\eudora.exe c:\mymail myeudora.ini
Command Line: c:\apps\eudora.exe c:\mymail\myeudora.ini
This is a way to have multiple settings for one set of mailboxes, nicknames,
etc. For example, you may have multiple e-mail accounts in which you
receive mail, but you want to collect mail from all of the accounts in one
place. You could set up separate Program Items for each account (each having a
different INI file on the command line). Then, switching between accounts would
be as simple as double-clicking on a Program Item.
For an even trickier specification: If the first parameter is an INI filename
without a path, then the mail directory is searched by the normal process of
checking the EUDORA environment variable, then using the executable
directory.
Examples:
SET EUDORA=c:\mymail
Command Line: c:\apps\eudora.exe myeudora.ini
will use c:\mymail as the mail directory and c:\mymail\myeudora.ini as the INI
file.
SET EUDORA=myeudora.ini
Command Line: c:\apps\eudora.exe
will use c:\apps as the mail directory and c:\apps\myeudora.ini as the INI file.
When
an entry in the EUDORA.INI file is not found, Eudora will look in the
DEUDORA.INI file located in the same directory as the EUDORA.EXE file. The
[Mappings] section of the DEUDORA.INI file behaves as though it were appended
to the end of the [Mappings] section of the EUDORA.INI file.

messages will be grouped together as well. You can
temporarily turn this off by holding down the <Shift>
key while doing the <Alt> click.
|
AlwaysConnected

|
Maximum age of a link in days since it last has been used in any way:
visited, displayed (ad only), had its Date Visited status modified

next time Eudora starts up.
|
MaxConcurrentTasks
|
10
|
The maximum number of background tasks that can be
running at the same time. Note that if you are connected
over a modem (dialup networking connection) only
one network task at a time will be run, otherwise network
performance would suffer greatly.
|
MaxMenus
|
30000
|
The maximum number of popup menus for mailboxes. These are equivalent
to mailbox folders (i.e. local mailbox folders that contain other
mailboxes, or IMAP mailboxes that contain other mailboxes). Used when
Eudora can't be started due to the large number of popup menus created,
which is limited by Windows. This will allow you to start up Eudora
and run it long enough to remove some mailboxes so that fewer menus
will be needed. Running for extended periods of time with this switch
in Eudora.ini is not recommended.
|
MDNSendAddress
|
0
|
Controls whether your return address should be
used in the MAIL FROM command for return receipts.
RFC 2298 says that it should be empty in
order to prevent mail loops, but some SMTP servers

|
NetscapeURLDDE
|
1
|
If this setting is on, when clicking on a URL in a message
and Netscape Navigator is running, then Eudora
will send the URL to that open Navigator window. If this
setting is off (i.e. set to zero), then clicking on a URL in
a message will send the URL to the system, which will
invoke the default browser. Some Navigator users may
want to turn this setting off if they like the behavior of
opening a new window (as opposed to reusing an existing
browser window) when clicking on a URL in Eudora.
|
NetworkOpenTimeout
|
60
|
The
number of seconds Eudora will wait for a response to opening a connection
before it gives up.
|
NewMailUpdateFrequency
|
25
|
Number of inital messages that have to be spooled before
message processing begins.
|
NoAutoResponseHeaders
|
errors-to:,list-
|
allows for better
detecting of mailing lists to which you should not auto-respond.
As a default, "errors-to:,list-" is the value. Add any other
headers which will identify it as a list (hence will not
auto-respond via filters).
|
NoAutoSendPrecedence
|
list,bulk
|
When
filtering incoming messages with precedence headers of list or
bulk, do not automatically create new outgoing messages.
|
NoSplashScreen
|
0
|
If
on, the opening splash screen will not be displayed.
|
Offline
|
0
|
Set to 1 to temporarily set Eudora offline; it will not perform automatic timed mail checks when offline.
|
OfflineLinkAction
|
0
|
Eudora displays the Offline Link Dialog
if you click on an http: link while offline (not connected to the Internet). That
dialog box lets you choose what action should be taken regarding that link the next
time Eudora is online: ask you if you want to launch the link, launch it without
asking, bookmark the link in your link history, or remind you later. The dialog box now
has a checkbox that will make the action you choose the default from then on, which
means you won't see the Offline Link Dialog any more. It defaults to 0 = ask, and
the other values are 1 = launch, 2 = bookmark, and 3 = remind.
|
OwnerLok
|
1
|
If this is non-zero, an OWNER.LOK file will be created
on startup which helps to prevent possible corruption
if multiple instances of Eudora are used on the
same set of mailboxes.
|
PasswordOKWordList

|
A comma-separated list of words that if found in
the response text from an error from the POP
PASS command that will not cause the password
to be erased (works in conjunction with the BadPasswordString
entry above). POP servers
sometimes fail after sending the PASS command
for reasons other than your password was incorrect,
and this entry allows greater control over
when Eudora will decide to ask you again for your
password.
|
PhReturn
|
|
A
string that is appended to every Ph command before sending to the Ph server.
For example, "PhReturn=return all" would return all fields of the records
returned by the query, and "PhReturn=type=person" would return all matches to
the query with the additional filter that the record is a person.
|
POPPort
|
110
|
Default
port number for the POP service (pop3).
|
PreviewHeaders
|
To:,Subject:,Cc:, Bcc:,X-Attachments:
|
A comma-separated list of headers that should be
shown in the preview pane. The matching is done on a
prefix basis, so any header that begins with one of
these values will be shown.
|
PreviewHeadersMaxLines
|
4
|
This is designed to keep preview pane headers to a minimum. This is
most often used to control large To: or Cc: headers where someone
inserts a large number of individual addresses.
|
PreviewSplitterPos
|
0
|
If non-zero, then if a mailbox hasn’t already specified
a position for the splitter between the message list and
the preview pane, then the splitter will be positioned
this many pixels from the top of the mailbox window.
|
PreviewTableEnd
|

|
HTML markup for the start of the table row that’s used
to display the headers in a preview pane. Each header
is displayed in a separate row of the table.

on (1), printed messages get headers and footers.
|
ProgressIdle
|
3
|
Number of seconds a foreground tasks continues
before the Progress window is shown. This prevents
a distracting flash of the Progress window
for a task that may take a long time, but in this instance
only takes a short time.

When switching from a task from one personality
to a task of another personality and the two personalities
have different dialup networking connection
entries, whether or not the already
connected dialup networking connection should
be maintained or a new dialup networking connection
made. It may be necessary to turn this
setting off (set to zero) if you have personalities
that check mail on servers that are behind firewalls,
and require that you dial in directly in order
to connect to the mail server.

SMTPAuthAllowed
|
1
|
Eudora will authenticate with your SMTP server if the server supports authentication.
|
SMTPAuthBanished
|
|
It should contain a comma-separated list of authentication
schemes whose use is to be disallowed. The security conscious
should set it to "LOGIN,PLAIN", as this ensures that your SMTP
server password will always be strongly encrypted when it goes
over the network. Users of IPSWITCH's Imail SMTP server should
set it to "CRAM-MD5" so as to avoid a bug of theirs.
|
SMTPAuthRequired
|
0
|
Allows you to require authentication when gaining ac-cess
to your SMTP server.
|
SMTPPort

status bar for tasks that currently have errors
(units in milliseconds between images).
|
StatBarWaitingAnimationRate
|
500
|
Controls the speed of the animated icon in the
status bar for tasks that are currently waiting
(units in milliseconds between images).
|
StationerySignatureRules
|
1
|
Signature
precedence is as follows: User's selection; Stationery's signature;
Personality's signature. Set this to 0 to put Personality's signature
before Stationery's.
|
StripDuplicateAddresses
|
1
|
When replying to a message, controls whether or
not duplicate copies of your e-mail address will be
removed from the To: and Cc: headers. This
helps to avoid buildup of your email address in
email conversations. StripDuplicateAddresses
has been shown by the ADA to be an effective decay
preventive dentifrice that can be of significant
value when used as directed in a conscientiously
applied program of oral hygiene and regular professional
care. Four out of five dentists prefer
StripDuplicateAddresses over the leading products
at preventing email address buildup.

progress bar in the Task Status window for receiving mail.
|
TimeZone
|
|
Where xxx, yyy are timezone abbreviations like PST, PDT, CDT, and nnn is the offset
in hours WEST of GMT (those that are east of GMT should enter a negative number here).
xxx is the timezone during Standard Time and yyy is the timezone during Daylight Savings Time.
If you do not change your clocks during Daylight Savings Time, leave yyy blank. Here are some
samples: TimeZone=PST8PDT TimeZone=MET-1
If you don’t specify a TimeZone entry, then a Date: header
will not be put in outgoing messages, which is fine for most because their mail server will insert
the correct Date: header. If you don’t get messages bounced because of a missing Date: header, then
leave the TimeZone entry alone.
|
TocDateLeeway
|
2
|
Number
of seconds that the date on a mailbox .TOC file can be behind the .MBX file
that Eudora will not flag as being out of date. Helpful for network file systems.

If this is set to 0, then the Microsoft Viewer under Tools: Options: Viewing Mail will be unchecked. If set to 1, then the Microsoft Viewer will be checked.
|
UseMyDirServWindowPosition
|
0
|
Setting this to 1 tells Eudora to let the Directory Services window
display with the left-hand side completely hidden. Otherwise, Eudora
will make sure the left-hand side is showing the first time you open
the Directory Services window after launching Eudora.
|
UseMyFilterWindowPosition
|

See UsePOPMangle.
|
UsePOPMangle
|
0
|
Whether or not Eudora should use the MANGLE modifier to the TOP command
in a POP connection. MANGLE can produce some better results for
messages that are skipped because they are large, giving a summary for
the attachments in the message.
|
UsePOPSend
|
0
|
If
UsePOPSend is on, Eudora will send mail using the POP3 extended command XTND
XMIT. Since this is an optional command for POP3, many POP3 servers do not
support this command (Berkeley's popper, however, does). There are pros and
cons to using POP3 to send your mail. It provides a level of security since it
requires a username/password pair to send mail messages, unlike SMTP. It is
faster than SMTP, especially when checking for new mail at the same time. It
doesn't check for valid recipients until the entire message is sent, and some
implementations (Berkeley's popper, for example) won't tell you which
recipients are invalid and will send the message to the valid recipients anyway.
|
UseQuickTime
|
1
|
If off, then Eudora will never attempt to use QuickTime to display
images. Useful for situations where QuickTime is causing instability
in the system.

80
|
When
the "Word wrap" switch is on, this is the length at which a line in an outgoing
message is considered too long and must be wrapped.
|
WordWrapOnScreen
|
0
|
If this is on (set to non-zero), then the composition
window will automatically wrap text on the screen at
the number of characters specified in WordWrapColumn,
regardless of the width of the window.

This
is a sample [Mappings] section. It is not a default for Eudora if you
have a missing or empty [Mappings] section. The [Mappings] section contains
information for mapping between PC file extensions, Macintosh creator and type,
and MIME type and subtype for attachment files (in that order). Entries marked
"in" work on only incoming messages, and entries marked "out" work on only
outgoing messages. Entries marked "both" work on both incoming and outgoing
messages.

This
section reflects the current settings of the main Eudora toolbar. If you create
additional Eudora toolbars, then additional [Tool Bar] sections will appear in
the INI file.
NOTE: We strongly recommend that you do not change any of the
settings in the [Tool Bar] section(s) of the INI file, and that you instead
make any changes to any Eudora toolbar from the toolbar customization dialog
(Customize dialog). This dialog is accessed by right-clicking anywhere on the
toolbar and selecting Customize... from the popup menu. For more
information, see "Customizing the Main Toolbar" in the Eudora Reference
Manual.
The
[Decorations] section controls ways to customize your Eudora application windows.
BackgroundColor
|
0
|
Specifies an RGB triple (in hexadecimal) for the
color to use for the "workspace" area of the main
Eudora window. Can be used in conjunction with
the BackgroundImage entry for choosing a color
better suited for the image being displayed. Ex-amples:
white is "FFFFFF", black is "000000",
and blue is "0000FF". This setting does *not* re-quire
QuickTime to be installed.
|
BackgroundImage
|
0
|
Specifies an image to be displayed in the
"work-space" area of the main Eudora window (called "Application Background" in
the Appearance tab of the Control Panel->Display options). It needs to be
specified as a full path name. This setting requires QuickTime to be installed.
|
The
[DirectoryServices] section controls the use of the Directory Services window
(accessed from Eudora's Tools menu) and its associated databases. For more
information on Directory Services, see its dedicated section in the Eudora
User Manual.
NOTE: Of the entries listed below, only those marked with an asterisk
(*) are user-settable.

Description
|
OldKeepOnTopConverted
|
|
What
in pre-4.0 versions of Eudora used to be [Settings]$\mid$AddressKeepForeground
is now KeepOnTop in this section. KeepOnTop saves the check state of the "Keep
On Top" check button in the Directory Services window. Eudora uses this entry
(OldKeepOnTopConverted) to determine if the AddressKeepForeground entry from a
pre-4.0 version of Eudora has been mapped to the current version. When Eudora
4.x is run for the first time, it sets the KeepOnTop entry (described below)
equal to the value of AddressKeepForeground. In addition, it also sets this
entry equal to 1 so that the next time Eudora is run, it reads the check state
from KeepOnTop rather than from AddressKeepForeground.
