Eudora

To Enable multiple email accounts in Eudora, you will need to create separate shortcuts for each new email account. Before you start, ask your system administrator if you are allowed to connect to an external POP3 server.

  1. Right-click anywhere on your desktop. From the dropdown menu, Click on New , then Shortcut.
  2. This will bring you into a Create Shortcut dialogue box. Click on the Browse button to find the Eudora executable file. Click Next when done.
  3. In the Select a name for the shortcut: box, type the name your new email account. Click on Finish when done.
  4. Find your new shortcut and right-click on it. Click on Properties from the drop down menu that appears.
  5. Alter the Target: box by adding a space then type the path to where you would like the datafiles to be stored. For example C:\Eudora\Eudora.exe C:\username\Eudora.
  6. Change the Start in: box, type the path to the datafiles that you specified in the previous step, for example C:\username\Eudora. Click on OK when done.

NOTE: If the path to your datafiles contains a space, the whole path should be enclosed in double quotes ("). For example : C:\username\Eudora does not require double quotes while "C:\Program Files\username\Eudora" does. Please make sure that the Start in: directory exists, or else you will not be able to apply the changes to the shortcut.
