</OL>

|
|
|
<P>To create the message under a different "personality," or email account
|
|
(if you have multiple personalities set up), select the personality from the
|
|
Personality popup in the <B>From:</B> field, or from the <B>Message>Change>Personality</B>
|
|
submenu.</P>
|
|
<P>To save your message at any time, select <B>File>Save</B>. Your message
|
|
will be saved in the Out mailbox marked with a blue bullet (•), meaning
|
|
that it is sendable. You can continue writing the message, or close it and come
|
|
back to it later.</P>
|
|
|
|
<H3>Sending or Queueing a Message</H3>
|
|
<P>There are two ways to send mail with Eudora: you can send a message immediately,
|
|
or put it in a queue (waiting list) to be sent later. To specify which option
|
|
you want Eudora to perform by default, take the following steps before you create
|
|
a new message:</P>
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Select the <B>Special>Settings...</B> command to open the Settings dialog.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Click on the <B>Sending Mail</B> category in the scrolling list on the left.</LI><BR>
|
|
<BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Turn on (check) the <B>Immediate send</B> option to send messages immediately,
|
|
or turn it off (uncheck it) to put messages into the message queue to be sent
|
|
later.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Click <B>OK</B> to save your setting and close the Settings dialog.</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P>Now, in the open message window of a new message you have just created, click
|
|
the message delivery button in the upper right corner of the window: it is marked
|
|
either <B>Send</B> or <B>Queue</B> depending on your selection in the numbered
|
|
steps above. If you click the button and it is marked <B>Send</B>, the message
|
|
is sent immediately. If you click the button and it is marked <B>Queue</B>,
|
|
the message is transferred to your Out mailbox and marked "Q," meaning
|
|
it is queued and ready to be sent.</P>
|
|
<P>To send all the messages that are queued in your Out mailbox in one step, select
|
|
<B>File>Send Queued Messages</B>.</P>
|
|
|
|
<H3>Specifying the Time to Send</H3>
|
|
<P>Eudora can send a message at a specific time in the future (Eudora must be
|
|
running at the specified time).</P>
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Compose the message that you want to send at a specific time.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>With the message open or selected, select the <B>Message>Change>Queueing...</B>
|
|
command. (Or, with the message open, hold down the <B>Option</B> key and click
|
|
the <B>Send</B> or <B>Queue</B> button in the upper right corner of the message
|
|
window.)</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>In the <B>Change Queueing</B> dialog that appears, click the desired button.
|
|
If you click <B>On or after</B>, type the time and date
|
|
you want the message to be sent.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Click <B>OK</B>.</LI>
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P>If you specify a later time and date, Eudora sends the message at that
|
|
time if it is running. If it is not running at that time, as soon as you
|
|
launch Eudora after the time has passed, Eudora sends the message.</P>
|
|
|
|
<H3>Taking a Message Out of the Queue</H3>
|
|
<P>If you have a timed or queued message that you decide you don't want to
|
|
send, you can stop it ("unqueue" it), as long as it hasn't already
|
|
been sent.</P>
|
|
<OL>
|
|
<LI>Open the Out mailbox.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Select the message you don't want to send.</LI><BR><BR>
|
|
|
|
<LI>Select the <B>Message>Change>Queueing...</B> command.</LI><BR><BR>
|

<LI>Click the <B>Don't Send</B> button in the <B>Change Queueing</B> dialog.</LI><BR><BR>

|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P>The message is returned to the sendable state, marked with a blue bullet (•)
|
|
in the Status column of the message summary. You can send it later, or you can
|
|
discard it.</P>
