Every time I try to send e-mail in Eudora I get a message that I am sending to a bad e-mail address. I know the address is right. What is going on?
Eudora may be not be referring to the message you are trying to send, but to an older message that had a bad e-mail address and never actually got sent. To check for this problem go to the ‘Mailbox’ menu and select the ‘Out’ mailbox. Look for a message that has a “Q” in one of the columns next to it. If there is such a message double-click on it to open it and carefully examine the e-mail addresses in the To:, CC: and Bcc: fields. If any of these fields have an e-mail address that is badly formed Eudora can’t send the message and will save the message in your ‘Out’ mailbox until you either fix the address or delete the message. Every time you send a new message Eudora tries to send the old queued message too which is why you keep getting the error message. Some common e-mail address mistakes are Eudora aliases that don’t resolve to actual e-mail addresses or mailing list addresses which are missing the “@hmc.edu” ending.
