Students should print and keep the page showing their account name and initial passwords. It is very important to make sure you have adequate disk space available before checking for new mail. The account would then become locked and new incoming mail would be returned to the sender. The default setting in Eudora is to empty the trash when you exit the program. It may also be necessary to move all of the old messages from the out mailbox to the trash as well.
Files created by e-mail programs are normally very small.
If you have received attachments with your e-mails, these can be taking up alot of space. Deleting other files, such as extra word processing files or large cad drawings that you are no longer using, is normally a better way to help make more space available. When you have finished running the Eudora program, you should always use the FILE, EXIT option to close the program. This gives the program the opportunity to close all the open files being used so that they are not damanged. This will cause the error mentioned above.
