EUDORA FOR WINDOWS, VERSION 7.1 -- RELEASE NOTES

=============================================================
This document describes the changes in the software since Eudora
6.0. Separate sections have been given to changes from each
release since then.
NOTE: Many times we refer to <x-Eudora-option:...> to modify a
setting. Copy the whole text, including the < >'s, and paste it into
a new Eudora message. By pressing and holding down the <Alt> key, you
can click on a URL in a new message (a hand will display over the URL
which means it can be used). This will display a dialog which will allow
the value of the particular setting to be changed.
---------------------------------------------CHANGES FROM 7.0.1.0 TO 7.1.0.9
---------------------------------------------NEW FEATURES
-----------A "Recent" submenu was added to both the Mailboxes and Transfer menus, and a
"Recent" folder was added to the Mailboxes window. These locations contain the
10 most recently used mailboxes. A mailbox goes to the beginning of the list
when its window is opened up. The number of mailboxes to appear on the list
can be changed by a setting in Tools->Options->Mailboxes. Changing the value of
the setting to zero will remove the feature.
Added the ability the play a wide variety of sound formats for the new mail
sound and for sounds in filters. New formats include MP3, MIDI, WMA, and even
the audio inside of video formats such as MPEG, WMV, and AVI. Added hidden
setting <x-Eudora-option:PlayMediaFlags>, which allows the current sound/video
assigned when new mail arrives or filter sound actions to show in a media
player window. The default value of the flags keeps the window hidden. To get
the player to show up use <x-Eudora-option:PlayMediaFlags=268435824>.
Added the ability to save search criteria via File->Save and open the search
criteria later via the menu arrow on the "Search" button. There is a new
"Find Messages Using" menu next to the "Find Messages" menu item to easily call
up one of the saved searches.
Added Edit->Insert->Downloable Picture (also added to the Insert Object button
of composition windows). This allows a link (e.g. http: or ftp:) to an image
to be inserted in to a composition message. This saves disk space because only
a URL reference to the image is sent instead of embedding the image file. Great
for signatures to include a link to company logo available on web site.
Two options were added for the Eudora icon in the OS system tray, both of which
are in Tools->Options->Display. "Minimize Eudora to the system tray" makes the
OS taskbar item for Eudora disappear when Eudora is minimized. When it is
hidden from the OS taskbar, the system tray icon will appear. This option
defaults to being on. "Always show icon in system tray" ensures that the Eudora
icon always appears, but is off by default. This keeps the behavior similar to
previous versions of Eudora where the system tray icon would only show up when
there are new messages. Also, the system tray icon now has a context menu when
you right-click on it, which includes easy access to the two options mentioned
above and to some frequently used actions: New Message, Check Mail, Work Offline
,

and Exit.
The Enter Password dialog was modified to show personality name, username, and
server to give a better idea of which account the password is being asked for.
Also, a checkbox to remember the password is now in the dialog.
User-specified words can now be whitelisted in Mood Watch (automatically marked
as non-offensive even though they are in the Mood Watch dictionary) via the
setting <x-Eudora-option:MoodWatchWhitelistWords>. This is a comma-separated,
case insensitive list of words that should not be flagged by Mood Watch.
Incoming and outgoing mail servers are now validated when creating a new
personality. A checkbox in the "Incoming Email Server" and "Outgoing Email
Server" pages in the new personality wizard controls whether the appropriate
service exists on the specified machine. The default value of this
"Test server" checkbox can be set via Tools->Options->Extra Warnings->Warn
me when I: Enter and invalid server when creating a new personality. Also,
there is another validation method in the Personalities window that checks
username/password. Select one or more personalities in the Personalities
window, right-click and select "Test". The account will be logged in to,
but no mail will be downloaded or deleted. Errors are displayed in the Task
Errors window.
The data and application directories listed in the About dialog are now
clickable to open up an Explorer window to the corresponding directory.
Added a new menu item, Tools->Reset Tools, which resets the toolbars and
docking windows to their default state.
Explore Attachment now selects the attachment file in the resulting Explorer win
dow.
There's a couple of options that modify this feature. <x-Eudora-option:UseExplo
reVerb>
controls whether this new behavior happens (selecting the file), or the old way
occurs
(just opening the directory that the attachment resides in, using the "explore"
verb).
The default value is off (do the file selection). Also,
<x-Eudora-option:ExploreAttachOptions> contains the options to use if the file
selection method is being used. The default value for it is "/e,/select,", whic
h means
open an Explorer window in the default manner (/e) and select the file (/select)
.
IMAP
---Greatly improved timing of IMAP actions requiring immediate feedback from the
server.
Fixed bug resulting in loss of data when transferring multiple messages from
the local Out mailbox to an IMAP mailbox.
Fixed sporadic crash when performing a high priority IMAP action.
MISCELLANEOUS
-------------

Removed forced logging of indexed search.

Fixed a crash when a nickname is added or removed from the BossWatch or
Recipient lists (only occured in Windows 98).
Now preventing negative numbers from being entered in BossWatch settings.
Fixed crash that could occur when inserting an image that is missing a file
extension (e.g. GIF file without .gif extension).
Fixed bug where outgoing messages created by Send Again would get two
Message-Id: headers.
In the Change Queuing dialog, 12:nn in international time (no AM/PM) was getting
treated as 00:nn. This has been fixed so that it is interpreted correctly.
Now allowing recovered messages (those with a state of '?') to be manually marke
d
as Sent, so if the Out mailbox table of contents gets rebuilt then the user can
set
the rebuilt messages back to Sent.
Added <x-Eudora-option:RemoveChangePassword> for hiding the Change Password menu
item
in the Special menu. It is on (1) by default, i.e. the menu item is hidden, bec
ause
there are very few deployments of the password changing server. Organizations t
hat
have a password changing server will want to show this functionality.
The format of the From: header when doing a redirect is now controllable by a se
tting:
<x-Eudora-option:RedirectFromFormat>. The value is a format specifier that uses
"%1"
for the original sender of the message, and "%2" for the name and address of the
personality performing the redirect. The default value of the option is
"%1 (by way of %2)", which makes it identical to past behavior.
URL-referenced images (e.g. http:, ftp:) in messages now stay as URL references,
instead of being converted to local files as embedded images.
Fixed bug where undoing a message transfer sometimes wasn't available if the
destination mailbox is not open.
Fixed bug where Eudora could crash when displaying a message with lots of marque
e
tags in a row when "Use Microsoft's viewer" is on.
Fixed crash when many words are listed on the Mood Watch whitelist.
Added a new hidden setting, <x-Eudora-option:IgnoreSMTPQUITErrors>, which allows
errors in response to a QUIT command of an SMTP session to be ignored. The defa
ult
value is on (1). This is helpful for SMTP servers like GMail's, which do a hard
close on the socket after sending the response to the QUIT command and thus make
it appear to have errors.
Better Ctrl+arrow/word-by-word navigation as multiple punctuation marks are
considered a single word. Fixes bug where you couldn't Ctrl+left arrow through
an

emoticon.
Fixed bug where doing a "Save Attachment As" over top of an existing file that i
s
larger than the attachment being saved would wind up leaving the end of the exis
ting
file with the new contents at the front.
Fixed bug where saved searches didn't load correctly if they referenced the
<Dominant> personality or otherwise contained either '<' or '>'.
No longer putting up the "Please enter a positive integer" dialog when leaving t
he
"Check mail every X minutes" field blank in Tools->Options->Checking Mail.
Upgraded to OpenSSL 0.9.7l to patch several security holes. See
<http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20060905.txt> and
<http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20060928.txt> for details.
---------------------------------------------CHANGES FROM 7.0.0.16 TO 7.0.1.0
---------------------------------------------IMAP
---Fixed crash that could occur when a user transfers IMAP messages to a local mail
box
then closes the local mailbox before the IMAP action has fully completed.
Fixed bug where unread IMAP messages were incorrectly being marked as read after
being transferred to a local mailbox.
MESSAGE DISPLAY
--------------Added hidden setting <x-Eudora-option:MSHTMLFocusTimer>, which controls how
long (in milliseconds) to wait before stealing the focus back from the preview
pane to the summary list when using the MS viewer. Default value is 400.
Fixed bug where opening up a message window when using the MS viewer was not
correctly showing some UTF-8 characters.
MISCELLANEOUS
------------Fixed crash that could occur during junk scoring when a users email is stored in
the same directory as the application.
Fixed problem where Eudora sometimes wouldn't completely quit when another
application was connected to Eudora via automation.
The EMSAPI ems_plugin_finish() function of a plug-in is now only called when the
plug-in returns EMSR_OK to the ems_plugin_init() function.
Tooltips for Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Overwrite mode now shown.
Fixed bug introduced in Eudora 7 where the progress bar sometimes didn't display
when checking or sending mail.

---------------------------------------------CHANGES FROM 6.2.5.6 TO 7.0.0.16

---------------------------------------------NEW FEATURES
-----------Offline IMAP - While Eudora is offline certain actions can be performed locally
and Eudora will notify the server the next time Eudora is online. Supported
offline actions are: changing the status of messages (read/unread, deleted/undel
eted),
transfering/copying messages as well as creating, renaming and deleting mailboxe
s.
IMAP Improvements - IMAP performance has been improved by performing actions loc
ally
first (where possible) then communicating with the server later in the backgroun
d as
well as by reducing the number of commands Eudora must issue to the server. Eud
ora
also allows deleted IMAP messages to be hidden from view (the new default) or vi
ewed
along with non-deleted messages. Eudora can now also be set to purge deleted IM
AP
messages on a schedule specified by the user: never, always or when the number o
f
deleted messages reaches a certain percent of the total messages in the mailbox.
Indexed Search - Eudora now offers the option of doing faster (indexed) searches
powered by the X1 search engine. This is available in Paid mode only.
Boss Watch - Eudora can now warn you before you send mail to certain recipients,
which could help keep you from sending a message to people you did not mean to
include. This is available in Paid mode only.
S/MIME plug-in - Eudora now supports digital signing and encrypting of messages
via S/MIME.
LDAP with SSL - Queries can now be performed using SSL on LDAP servers
that support SSL.
ADDRESS BOOK
-----------Fixed bug handling address book entries with more than one address, one of
which is another nickname.
Fixed bug where you could not add numerous nicknames to Recipient List at the
same time.
Fixed bug where New and Del buttons are enabled in the Address Book window when
they should not be.
Fixed crash when right clicking on a readonly address book.
Fixed bug where "Make Nickname" from specific messages would create a malformed
nickname.
MESSAGE DISPLAY & EDITING

------------------------Eudora now allows URLs to begin with "URL:" in compliance with RFC 1738.
Fixed hang that could occur when displaying an invalid GIF file.
Fixed case where a link that spanned multiple lines would not be loaded correctl
y by
the built-in viewer.
Fixed rare case where Eudora could crash when sending a specific attachment whic
h
involved a lot of quoted printable encoding.
Added an extra parameter to the attachment mappings entries that controls whethe
r
or not the attachment should be deleted. The value should be "0" (keep) or
"1" (delete), and defaults to "0" if not present. As an example, say you don't
want to get any meeting notices you can add an entry to the [Mappings] section o
f
the Eudora.ini (or DEudora.ini) file that looks like this:"both=ics,,,text,calen
dar,1"
Fixed bug where composition message with styles sometimes wouldn't save.
Fixed case of clipped text in attachment forwarding warning dialog.
Typing when message contains a big picture is now much faster.
No longer displaying error dialogs when inline images can't be loaded in
the internal viewer.
When replying, the initial selection is controlled by the options
<x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingSelectAll>,
<x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingTypeBefore>,
<x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingTypeAfter>
(each is either 0 or 1; if more than one of these is set to 1, then the preferen
ce
order is as listed).
When replying, setting <x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingSeparateWithLine> to 1 cause
s
a blank line to be inserted between the cursor and the quoted message when eithe
r
<x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingTypeBefore> or <x-Eudora-option:WhenReplyingTypeAft
er>
is being used.
When opening a composition window (i.e. for a message that hasn't been sent yet)
, the
initial selection is controlled by the options
<x-Eudora-option:WhenOpeningCompositionWindowSelectAll>,
<x-Eudora-option:WhenOpeningCompositionWindowSelectBefore>,
<x-Eudora-option:WhenOpeningCompositionWindowSelectAfter>
(each is either 0 or 1; if more than one of these is set to 1, then the preferen
ce
order is as listed)
Pasting HTML with page-relative links (i.e. start with "#") in to a composition
window now keeping the links as page-relative rather than trying to make them
absolute with respect to their original source.

EMOTICONS
--------Insert Emoticon menu now alphabetized by meaning.
Left-justified the meanings of emoticons and removed parentheses to give
a cleaner look.

ignores for ScamWatch warnings,

<x-Eudora-option: ShowScamWatchDialog> controls whether or not ScamWatch will
warn about suspicious links with a dialog, and
<x-Eudora-option: ShowScamWatchToolTip> controls whether or not ScamWatch will
warn about suspicious links with a ToolTip.
EMSAPI

Better error dialog information when encountering an unknown file error.
Ctrl+Space accelerator now shown on Edit->Text->Clear Formatting menu item.

.
Replying with text selected in the preview pane will now preserve styles when qu
oting
the selected text.

a composition message gave a warning on every file type. Now it warns on file ty
pes
based on the warn launch settings.
Error messages opening files sometimes state opening for "reading" when
really opening for writing.
Fixed problem where X-EmbeddedContent: lines in the body of a message
cause phantom attachments at the end of composition messages.
Added 'Delete a message from Search results' to Extra Warnings settings
panel and re-arranged panel.

'
settings panel so that font changes in Eudora will not affect IE, and vice versa
.

the
signature and then lose that text when changing signatures.
Added support for mini dump file writing ("EudoraCrashDump.dmp") to exception
handling code (mini dumps are more extensive crash info).
The information that's written into the mini dump file is controlled by
<x-Eudora-option:CrashDumpType>.
---------------------------------------------CHANGES FROM 6.2.3.4 TO 6.2.5.6
---------------------------------------------POP
--No longer continuing to check mail if the LMOS.dat file can't be loaded.
Extra checks added to make sure the number of messages returned in the STAT
command is the same as the number of IDs returned in the UIDL command. They
should always match, and if they don't then something went wrong and we now
stop the POP session so as not to go forward with corrupt data.
Fixed case where losing the network connection during the response to the
UIDL command would cause many of the already downloaded messages to be
downloaded again.
Fixed bug where POP personalities with no configured POP Account caused message
redownload when emptying the Trash and the "Delete from server when emptied from

Bumped up the default log file size to 10 MB: disk is cheap.
Added a line to the log file during shutdown.
Improved logging of some sponsored mode failure dialogs.
SSL
--Fixed bug that would cause repeated requests for the user to trust an SSL
certificate.
MESSAGE DISPLAY & EDITING
------------------------Fixed crash with internal viewer trying to load some images (mainly GIF).
Fixed crash when displaying improperly formatted text/enriched messages that
are missing parameters.
Attachments with special characters and character sequences in them
(e.g. the ampersand character and multiple sequencial spaces) now displayed
correctly and can be launched successfully.
Changed URL launch operation from "open" to default, and is now controlled by
<x-Eudora-option:LaunchURLOperation>. This solves the problem with some users
who click on links in messages and get nothing or an "about:blank" window.
If this causes problems launching URLs, then change the value of this option
to "open".
MISCELLANEOUS
------------Fixed bug where message digest as mailbox attachment feature would use the wrong
MIME parameter for the name of the attachment.

IMAP as well as POP
Fixed bogus "certificate name does not match" when negotiating an SSL
connection
Improved wording when non-fatal certificate errors are encountered
ADDRESS BOOK
-----------Now limiting nickname field in address book to 32 characters, since that's
all we support saving

Contextual filing is no longer available in light mode
In light mode you can no longer check mail for other personalities via
Ctrl+Shift+M
mailto: URLs
-----------Question marks in values of mailto: parameters no longer considered field
separators
mailto: URLs with encoded characters were being decoded too soon, which
caused them not to be parsed correctly
MESSAGE DISPLAY & EDITING
------------------------Fixed crash that could occur when displaying a missing embedded GIF image.
No longer install "noseless" emoticons because they appeared to trigger
on non-emoticon text too often.
Fixed case where images in a message would not display when replying to or

how many characters before Eudora will wrap a line when sending a message if
the message is being sent with the format=flowed parameter (has long lines)
and quoted-printable encoding (has 8-bit characters). The default value is 50
characters. Also, the default value for where lines get wrapped for
non-quoted-printable text, <x-Eudora-option:WordWrapColumn>, was changed to
70 characters.
Fixed case where replying to a messages sometimes used wrong personality
for reply.
Now ensuring that docking/floating windows are big enough to be visible.
Added a toolbar/docking/floating window reset mechansim by holding down

SSL
--Eudora now uses OpenSSL instead of Certicom's SSL Plus library for SSL
negotiations.
When a server's SSL certificate is rejected for certain reasons
(not trusted, expired, etc.) Eudora will now present a dialog asking
the user if they want to trust the cert instead of forcing them to
navigate a complicated UI to manually trust the certificate.
IMAP
---Filtering of IMAP messages should now be as fully functional as filtering

SECURITY
-------Fixed cases where attachments could be spoofed via base64 or quoted-printable
encoded (plain-text, inline) MIME parts.
User is now warned when forwarding an attachment not found in Eudora's
attachment directory. See setting in Tools->Options->Extra Warnings
"Forward files that are not in the attachment directory".
Also controlled by <x-Eudora-option:ForwardingFilesNotInAttachDirAction>,

toolbars and new context menu items that search for the current
selection. Both allow you to search inside Eudora or start an

Smarter Transfer to Selection. In 6.0 we quietly introduced
"Transfer to Selection", which allows you to right-click on a word in a
message and have Eudora try to figure out to which mailbox you might want
to transfer the message. Now in 6.1 we've improved the feature by
presenting the choice of multiple mailboxes whose names most closely
match the text (if there are few or no choices offered then there aren't
any mailboxes with names sufficiently close to the selected text).
Simply choose a mailbox name from the context menu and Eudora will
transfer the message into that mailbox. You can specify the maximum
number of matches that Eudora should show via
<x-Eudora-option:TransferToMenus>.
Content Concentrator Profile Control. The Content Concentrator feature
in Eudora has been enhanced with the introduction of the
"Profile Control". The "Profile Control" allows you to change how
Content Concentrator is concentrating your selected message(s) in the
preview pane on the fly. Simply click on the "Profile Control" and
choose a new profile. The "Profile Control" can be found above the
"Preview Pane" between the "Mailbox Size Display" and the horizontal
scrollbar.

specific IMAP mailboxes on every mail check - just choose
"Resynchronize on Mail Check" in the IMAP mailbox context menu.

"Resynchronize Mail Folder" command, which can be found in the IMAP mailbox
context menu.
