One thing I am beginning to notice is that it has trouble with web-based mail. The accented letters are contorted, wether they come from Hotmail, Yahoo, my commercial ISP or even our own university's web-based mail. I asked someone in the computer center with a PC to check this out. He gets the same results. I seem to be picking accents up fine in all of my web-based mail, but web-based mail that can do all that Eudora can do is slow for me most of the time, on a connection that averages 48.2. I am teaching an online course, so I need to make sure I can receive accented material by e-mail with no trouble...especially now that I have worked so hard to teach these students to accent letters with MACs and PCs. Where should I start TBob
