Eudora - Anyone using it?

[powerdesal]

Does anyone else use Eudora (sponsored mode) for their e mails?

I have a problem with it that I just cant figure out, I receive without problem but when I send I have to repeat send 3, 4, 5 or more times before the mail eventually goes. This has been going on for some time but is now becoming a pain in the proverbial. It doesn't seem to matter what size mail I am sending, one word or multiple attachments. The number of repeat tries required seems to be entirely random.

Any computer boffins out there have an answer?

I am loathe to unload / reload as I dont want to risk losing any e mail history, particularly the work stuff.

nb. Although I am registered as "sponsored mode", I have stopped receiving the ads in the lower left hand box, but no reminder pop up from Eudora as used to happen in the past, I dont know if this is relevent.
