Yes, I am using the correct case. I'm using Eudora 3.1 (not updated to
3.1.3) - might that make any difference?
Also I use reply message 0 rather than reply message "" - is that
relevant?

No, thanks. I prefer having the screen real estate devoted to reading.
Hence I put the Dock on the left, for example. I've tried adding widgets to
the toolbar in Appleworks - I gave up and created a keybinding instead.
About 20x faster.

Not on this machine, it doesn't, unless that's something which was also
addressed in the 0.0.3 update, which seems unlikely. It sometimes replies
in the non-dominant personality to emails sent to the dominant one, and
vice-versa. (God only knows how this message is going to get through some
of the s#x filters out there.)

I mean I'd have two copies of Eudora 5 on two computers, so I'd have to pay
for two licences.
