When I placed the aiff file in ~/Library/Sounds/, Eudora would not
see it, even after restarting the computer. This is the latest
release of Eudora running under OS X 10.1.5. Since you are reporting
different behavior, maybe I'll do some more testing before
submitting a Eudora bug report.
You appear to be using 5.1.1 and I'm using a later version, but I
doubt if he's changed anything in that regard. I'll get the details
quite straight and then post again
I sometimes wonder what the future holds for Eudora. I'd still like
to see an option to trigger a script with a filter. I once
questioned one of the engineers on the Eudora development team about
this (on a Eudora mailing list) and he stated that they were
concerned with the possible security risk that this might create. I
don't see it as much of a risk myself, and I've not heard about
anything terrible which has happened as a result of this feature in
other email programs.
I haven't worked on it for some time, but I think we've have the
possibility of this feature for about eight years! and I did get it
working a few years ago. With the notice and notify events you can
tell Eudora to notify an application when mail arrives. However
Steve and co were not able to get the syntax right in their scripts
and gave up trying to get any sense out of the Applescript people at
Apple. I sweated away with it and eventually discovered a trick to
get things working. You should get the answer at

Let me know how you get on. I haven't looked at it for a couple of
years by the look of it.
