Creating more that one mailbox on your system:

If you have a sub-account or have more than one user using a single computer, you may find that you wish to have more that one mailbox on that computer to keep the e-mail separate. The following instructions will show you how to do just that. First, you must select the operating system that you are using because it is different for each system.

Macintosh

Find the Hard Drive icon and double click on it to open it.
Locate the system folder and double click on it to open it.
Inside of the system folder, you will find a folder titled "Eudora Folder". This folder contains the settings for the current mailbox. We will call this the FIRST mailbox.
Drag the Eudora Folder to the Desktop.
Open the Eudora Folder on the desktop and find the file titled "Eudora Settings". This is the icon that you would double click on to activate Eudora for the FIRST mailbox. To make access easier, let's make an alias of the program.
Click on the Eudora Settings icon to highlight it and go to the File menu, then down to Make alias.
Locate the Apple Menu Items inside of the System Folder.
Drag the aliased icon for the Eudora Settings to the Apple Menu Items
Open the Apple Menu Items and locate the alias that you just placed in there and rename it to Mailbox #1, or something significant to the first mailbox's user ID.
To access the FIRST mailbox, click on the alias that now resides on the Apple Menu in the upper left.
To create the SECOND Eudora Settings (or the SECOND Mailbox), run the Eudora program.
Go to the Special menu, down to Configuration.
Fill out the pertinent information for the SECOND account/sub-account including POP account, SMTP server, Return Address, etc.
Click on the OK button.
If you haven't already done so, create an alias to the Eudora program, and put it on your Apple Menu Items, as outlined above. You may wish to rename this alias to Mailbox #2 or something significant to the second mailbox's user ID.
To access the SECOND mailbox, click on that alias that now resides on the Apple Menu in the upper left.

After this is completed, you will have two mailboxes. Remember, if you go into Eudora by clicking on the Eudora Program, you can only access the SECOND mailbox. If you wish to access the FIRST mailbox, you must click on the alias in the Apple Menu.

Windows (3.1, 3.11, 95)

Go to the File Manager (or the Windows Explorer) and locate the Eudora directory.
Create a new directory under the C:\fciNET\ directory and call it Eudora2 or something similar to that.
(first select the c:\fcinet directory).
(In Windows 95: File->New->Folder, Windows 3.1,3.11: File->Create directory)
Select all of the files (and folders) inside of the Eudora directory.
(In Windows 95: Edit-> Select All, Windows 3.1, 3.11: File->Select Files->Select->Close)
Copy the files into the new directory
(Windows 95: drag the files over to the new directory with the RIGHT mouse button. When you drop the files, a menu will come up, select copy files. Windows 3.1,3.11: drag the files to the new directory holding down the LEFT mouse button and the CTRL button. This will copy the files to the new directory.
Windows 3.1,3.11 users:

Exit File manager.
Open the fciNet group and go to the File menu down to New.
Select Program Item
Select the Browse button
Locate the weudora.exe file in the new directory that you created and select it and hit OK
Click on the OK button to create the icon. (Here you can also change the description of the icon to be more revealing then Eudora.. (i.e. 2nd mailbox).

Windows 95 users:

With the Windows Explorer still open, drag the weudora.exe (or the eudora executable) from the new directory to the desktop to create a shortcut to the new Eudora mailbox.
You can also rename the icon to something more meaningful than shortcut to Eudora.
