Hello,

I am a big fan of Eudora. Running it since 2000 with more than 6 profiles (mailboxs).

During these years all accumulated attachments (around 30k files) are in Attachment folder, difficult to manage and periodic backup due to these number of files.

I would like to keep same installation as it is and want to install another Eudora installation in another drive (F drive) where I can keep mails/attachments from 2023 onward. Current installation will be there only in case I need to refer previous messages. (Both instances will not run at same time)

I have installation details as below:

Win10 x64 bit.
Eudora Version 7.1.0.9
Eudora Installation : e:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora\
DataFolder=e:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora\
All attachments in e:\Program Files\Qualcomm\Eudora\ATTACH.ZIF\

At the end of year I rename mail box to Year number for ex. In.mbx will be In-2022.mbx etc. so separating data before 2022 is not an issue.

How can I install second installation and what points should be observe so that It will not interfere with my previous installation?

Regards,
Rakesh Patel
