As most Google searches will bring up the installation instructions for Windows 7, I thought I would share.
Use the following when Eudora asks for registration code:
First Name: Paid_Mode_No_Support
Last Name: Without_X1_Search
Registration Code: 4352-4846-7641-3881
(The above courtesy of the last few Eudora folks from 2007)
Install normally.
When asked where the data should go, do NOT place it in the default of the Programs folder. Instead select the other radio button (it's an AppData folder that is hidden -- make note of the location -- note that it is in a hidden location so you have to view hidden files and folders to navigate to it)
If you are migrating, you have to put your mailbox and toc folders into the AppData folder you made note of. This is also where Eudora has its Eudora.ini folder, so if you want to add Taboo headers to hide all the crap in your emails, it goes in here:
* Quit Eudora In case you are already running it).
* In Windows Explorer, navigate to the data folder and find 'Eudora.ini'. This is the configuration file for Eudora.
* make a backup copy of the file Eudora.ini
* Right-click Eudora.ini and select "Open With...", "Notepad".
* Find the line in the file that starts with "TabooHeaders". Change the line to the following, there should be no line breaks, it should all be on one line:
TabooHeaders=>,a,b,co,dis,e,g,h,i,j,k,l,m,n,o,p,rec,ref,res,ret,q,u,v,w,x,y,z,DomainKey-Signature,DKIM-Signature,Delivered-To,Thread-Topic,Thread-Index,Content-Type,Content-Disposition,Content-Transfer-Encoding,X-DKIM-Sig-Canonicalized-Headers0
Before running Eudroa, search for 'default programs' and make Eudroa the default for all programs it can open.
Run Eudroa in admin mode (do this once or anytime Windows lost the association that Eudora is the deafult email program).
Close Eudora (don't do set-up).
Open Eudora again and do your account and email setups.
Some folks might tell you to also transfer your Eudora.ini file with your mailbox and toc files. Here's the problem with that: the file gives the locations of where things exist. Unless the directory structure of your new install matches (or you change it in the ini file), start from scratch.
Hope this helps.
