Not here. It works fine. I don't remember it not working, so I'll
have ot take your word for it. Besides, it's a bad idea to turn off
format-flowed because it is not merely a visual thing -- it's a very
useful device, which is probably why Microsoft doesn't implement it.

That's not the way to do it. If you want to use a signature other
than the standard signature, edit the Alternate signature as in the
script below. You can have as many read-made sigs as you like in the
folder/sig window but if you want to script
(* note the effect of the dash+dash+space signature separator *)
set alt_sig_content to "--
__
JD
__
"
(* OR *)
set sig_to_copy to "Wood Place" -- If this is not "", it will take precedence
tell application "Eudora"
set f to "" & file of nickname file 0
set my text item delimiters to {":"}
set sig_folder to "" & (text items 1 through -2 of f) &
":Signature Folder:"
set alt_sig to sig_folder & "alternate" as alias
if sig_to_copy is not "" then
set alt_sig_content to read alias (sig_folder & sig_to_copy)
end if
set my text item delimiters to {""}
open for access alt_sig with write permission
set eof alt_sig to 0
write alt_sig_content to alt_sig
close access alt_sig
set the signature of the front message to alternate
end tell

These are other related settings:
<x-eudora-setting:260> These settings control when Eudora will
interpret or generate format=flowed.)) Set to 1 to turn off
completely.
<x-eudora-setting:7419> Number of chars at which to wrap messages
when not doing format=flowed.
<x-eudora-setting:8402> Lines shorter than this will not be wrapped
when not doing format=flowed.
<x-eudora-setting:5903> This is the quote character to use when doing
format=flowed. It must be either '>' or '> '.

I doubt very much if there is a fee for upgrading to 5.2.1. Provided
you use the same settings file, you won't even be bothered with
sponsored stuff, and if you don't, you just need to do About Eudora
in your old set-up and get you registration number. I had no trouble
with it the other day when I installed it for a new user.
