Some of my emails come in a size too large to read. Is there an easy
way to reduce the size down to where they are readable? Thanks

What is "too large to read"? To me, it would imply a message that can't
be displayed, not "I don't want to scroll through all this junk to find
interesting parts".

However... Tools/Options/ Content Concentrator might be what you want
to look at.

So large that 1 letter fills the whole window. I already use the
concentrater so I guess we are not really on the same page here.

The problem is something at the sender's end.

The fastest way to make those messages readable is to
scroll the message while holding down the Ctrl key. I think that this
works only when you are using the MS viewer, not Eudora's internal
viewer.

Looks to me like the sender is using html and an insane font size.
I'd try 'send to browser' then with repeated ctrl/- reduce the text
size. I'd also copy the offending mail to the Junk folder and use
notepad to see what the hell is going on in the mail body.

BTW, I permanently have "Use Microsoft's viewer" off and use the
latter procedure if I don't trust a mail, without opening the mail
in Eudora. It's quite cute and revealing to read what blatant shit
they're trying to threat to you with or "offer" you. By now I could
have sexy Russian girls by the score. ;-)
