Changing POP (or other) port in Eudora
Document ID: 1501HQ

ISSUE:

I need to be able to change the port used by Eudora for incoming mail, or outgoing mail, or directory services, etc.

SOLUTION (WINDOWS):

First, look for a file in the Windows directory called "services" and open it with Notepad

Look for the appropriate line for what you are trying to change. It will look something like this:

pop3 110/tcp postoffice

Change the port number to the desired value then save the change to the file and exit Notepad. If the service you are trying to modify is not contained in the services file, no change to it is necessary.

Next, look in the Eudora directory for the directory "extrastuff". In this directory is a file named "esoteric.epi". Drag this file into the main Eudora directory. Start up Eudora, go to Tools: Options: Ports & Protocols, and change the ports here.

SOLUTION (MACINTOSH):

Quit Eudora and look in the Eudora Application Folder for the folder "Extras". In this folder is a file "Esoteric Settings". Drag this file into the "Eudora Stuff" folder, then launch Eudora. Go to Special: Settings: Ports & Protocols: and change the ports here.
