The current version of Eudora seems to be 6.0.3 or 6.1 beta. A simple upgrade might solve your problem. Otherwise with (seemingly) incompatible software (if it can't be remedied with settings or reinstall) the usual choice is changing one of the two.
Good alternative free email clients are:
- Mozilla Thunderbird (www.mozilla.org)
- Outlook Express (comes with IE, but an obvious target for virus writers)
- Pegasus mail (www.pmail.com)
Changing the software that came with the scanner might be more difficult.
Hope this helps,

Ever since we had our scanner installed we have had a problem with Eudora (email). When we first turn on the computer we can load Eudora, but if we close it then it won't load again. The hourglass just turns endlessly.
We have Eudora 3.0 and the scanner is Visioneer Onetouch 8700 USB using Paperport v7.0. We are using Windows ME.
