With Eudora, you can always look directly at the *.mbx file with a text
editor and read your mail. You will see that each mail begins with
something like this:
From ???@??? Wed Nov 03 21:14:21 1999
X-Persona: <Twisted Pair>
Received: from [139.142.66.252] by crusty.tp.net (NTMail 3.03.0018/1.adi1)

Received: from fw.sls.bc.ca (root@xxxxxxxxxxxx [139.142.66.253])
...etc. You can then check to see if there are any possible sequences
of characters such as ???@??? to see if it is confusing Eudora. I
personally have found Eudora to be very robust and I'm sure the digest
size is not likely to be the problem. The size may be a problem with
the server though.
If you need an editor that can read large files, I recommend BArry's
Emacs, which I have been using in one form or another for 14 years. You
can find a free copy at:
