Are you sure that you are having "real" memory problems or Resource
problems. The reason I say that is Eudora is a real "Windows Resource" hog
if several mailbox "Tabs" are open at the same time. Note that Resources
are not related to memory. I have seen the virtual memory message with low
Windows resources. [By the way I use Eudora also in spite of this problem.
I just have to be careful on my 98 machine.]
Try running your Resource Meter minimized to the Systray and see if it
turns yellow or red just before you get the message.
