Barfs on Eudora 3.1 (which I'm still using on my work machine,
unfortunately) whether I use the international text name or the index of
the personality. I'll try it on the 5.1 version.

I'll confess I've never understood your love of toolbar buttons, John. I
use OSA Menu on 9 and Keyboard Maestro on X to produce a stack of
keybindings linked to scripts to perform functions. I can hit three keys at
once a lot faster than I can navigate a mouse. I presently use five
different keybindings, but that's only because I don't have many things
that need automating. (Or do I just get dull emails - sob.)

Anyway, the error message on Eudora 3.1 is
--> Eudora Pro 3.1 got an error: Can't set personality of message id
136249952 of mailbox "Out" of mail folder "" to personality 4.

(I've also tried personality "UKClimbing" and get the same sort of thing.)

Ideas? It would be nice if Eudora would reply with the same personality
that it gets addressed in, but...
Charles

PS "upgrade" isn't an allowed "idea" as that would double my Eudora costs -
two separate computers.
