Mailbox question
Tcs
Eudora v6.2.3.) What's the limit in v7?
I ask because I have a lot. (Most people would *probably* say that I
have too many.) I have so many they don't all show on the screen
(using the mailbox button in the pulldown menu), at 1024x768. I can
get more at a higher resolution, but then I can't read my screen. Why
can't Eudora scroll mailboxes like IE does with favorites? That, or
some *other* way I can get to see all my mailboxes.
Thanks a lot,
Tom

Darned if I know what setting you have wrong. I have 2 1/2 columns of
mailboxes and folders under the mailbox menu, and then several folders have
more than 1 column of mailboxes and/or folders each.

Eudora doesn't have a limit on that as such. At some point, having too
many in the same place can cause problems with menus. There are limits to
how many items Windows can successfully put in a menu and there are limits
to how much fits on the screen at once. The solution to that is to make
folders and organize your mailboxes into them so that there isn't an
excessive number in any one place. That has the added benefit of making it
easier in most cases to find any given mailbox.

It can scroll them, assuming you're using a version of Windows that has
that capability, which you probably are. You just need to tell it to do
so. The setting for scrolling rather than wrapping menus is WrapMenus=0.
It goes in the [settings] section of eudora.ini.
