Eudora Light is a free email program you can use to check your grove email. By using Eudora you won't have to worry about messing up any other email programs you are currently using. Eudora Light is available on the UF Software CD from the Hub or you can download it from www.eudora.com. If you download it get the newest version and choose the mode you want (light=free without some features, sponsor=ads but all features, paid=NOT free, no ads, all features). There are instructions there for installation.

Alternatively you can download Eudora Light from www.eudora.com. Note: our instructions are for Eudora Light Version 3.0.x. They have just recently released a newer version (I think it is still beta).

After this part the rest of the installation should be the same. If you have problems see a TA.

1. Eudora Light will be located in the directory you specified as the destination directory. If you left the default location, you will find the program in the start menu under programs if you are using Windows 95/98. If you are using Windows 3.1, Eudora will be in the Program Manager.
2. When you first start Eudora Light, the Options window should appear. To return to Options in the future, pull down the Tools menu and select Options.
   Under Getting Started, (Note: if you are on auto configure you need to scroll up and select Getting Started), enter the following:
   
   • POP name: your e-mail address (e.g. c3063abc@grove.ufl.edu)
     Note that this address is only for logging into the POP mail server to retrieve your e-mail, not for others to send you e-mail.
   • Real name: your name (e.g. John Doe)
   • Return address: your e-mail address (e.g. c3063abc@grove.ufl.edu)
3. Select Winsock for connection method.

     Note: If you are unable to send or receive mail using grove.ufl.edu, try mail.grove.ufl.edu.
6. Leave Ph and Finger blank.
7. Click OK.
8. To receive e-mail, click on the icon with a red check and an envelope on it. When you place your mouse over the icon, it will say check mail. Type in your password. Eudora will not ask for your password again until the next time Eudora is started. When you receive new mail, Eudora will chime and flash You have new mail!
9. To compose an e-mail, click on the icon with a yellow tablet and pencil. When you place your mouse over the icon, it will say new message. You will see a blank message with the following header:
   
   To: The recipient of the e-mail
   From: Your name & e-mail address
   Subject: A few words about the subject matter of the message
   Cc: Carbon Copy. Entering another e-mail address here will send a copy of the message to someone else. It is also a good idea to send carbon copies of e-mail messages to yourself for your records.
   Bcc: Blind carbon copy. This allows you to send a carbon copy to someone without any other recipients knowing.
   Attached: This feature allows you to attach files to your message.
   
   
10. Next, type your message in the area below the header. When you are ready to send it, click the send button.
