Step 1: Using Send on Check

The action of downloading new mail messages (checking) is a separate activity from sending outgoing messages (sending). However, in Microsoft, mail programs always have combined send and receive activities.

Step 2: Disabling Send on Check

Eudora gives the user a choice. Sending and checking mail can be done as a single operation by enabling the "send on check" option, or separately, by disabling it. Some email providers require mailboxes to be checked shortly before mail can be sent through them. "Send on check" must be disabled for these accounts. And there may be other reasons why you want to separate the two functions.

Step 3: Find the Eudora Option

In the main screen of Eudora, select Tools / Options.

Step 4: Set the Eudora Option

Scroll to "checking mail" and select it. Check the "send on check" box if you want the sending of mail connected to the checking and downloading of incoming mail. Select OK to dismiss the options window.
