EUDORA BY QUALCOMM MACINTOSH VERSION 2.1.2 UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS
This README file provides instructions for downloading the Eudora by QUALCOMM
Macintosh version 2.1.2 upgrade files and for installing this upgrade.
DOWNLOADING THE 2.1.2 UPGRADE ARCHIVES VIA FTP
To download the Macintosh 2.1.2 upgrade via QUALCOMM's anonymous ftp site,
ftp.qualcomm.com, look for the 2.1.2 updater and Spellswell 7 files in the
quest/mac/eudora/2.1 directory. The updater file name is eudora212.hqx, and
the Spellswell 7 file name is SpellingUpdate.hqx.
DOWNLOADING THE 2.1.2 UPGRADE ARCHIVES VIA E-MAIL FILE SERVER
To download the Macintosh 2.1.2 upgrade via QUALCOMM's list server, please
use the following command:
- Mail a message to majordomo@qualcomm.com with the body of the message
reading as follows:
get mac_eudora_updates 2.1/eudora212.hqx
get mac_eudora_updates 2.1/spellingupdate.hqx
Your new message will look similar to:
To: majordomo@qualcomm.com
From: <your return email address>
Subject: <no subject needed>
_________________________________
get mac_eudora_updates 2.1/eudora212.hqx
get mac_eudora_updates 2.1/spellingupdate.hqx
- These "get" commands will elicit two responses. The first will be a
confirmation that the commands were correct and a notification that a second
message, which contains the files, is being sent. The second message contains
BinHex files which Eudora will automatically extract for you.
INSTALLING THE EUDORA 2.1.2 UPGRADE
The upgrade files are downloaded to your desktop as self-extracting archives.
Just double-click to extract the updater and the Spellswell 7 folder. You
will be prompted for a password when extracting the Spellswell 7 folder. This
password was supplied in your e-mail notification message. If you no longer
have this password, it can be obtained from Eudora Sales at
eudora-admin@qualcomm.com, (800) 2-Eudora or (619) 658-1291. Be sure to
provide a valid site number when requesting this password.
Once the Spellswell 7 folder extraction is complete, place it in your current
Eudora application folder.
To upgrade your Eudora software, double-click the Eudora 2.1.2 updater file.
The updater program will prompt you through the upgrade process. Please be
aware that the updater program will only work on unmodified copies of Eudora
2.1.1. If you have changed the program with a resource editor (i.e.,
Resedit), the upgrade will not work. You must re-install the original version
of Eudora 2.1.1 prior to running the upgrade program.
NOTE: If you are running a version of Eudora prior to 2.1.1, you must upgrade
to 2.1.1 prior to upgrading to 2.1.2.
Once you have run the Eudora 2.1.2 updater, launch Eudora. The Edit menu now
contains a Check Spelling menu item. Select this item to check the spelling
of message composiiton windows and text files using the Spellswell 7 spelling
checker. For more information on using Spellswell 7, see the Spellswell 7
User Manual, which is included in soft copy format in the Spellswell 7
folder.
