I don't typically have any trouble with Eudora... it just works.  But 
once in a while the handshake with the server will stop working.  I end 
up having to contact my web hosting provider and we change some settings 
and get it back on track.  But I never understand why the changes were 
needed.  The provider claims nothing has happened at their end.

This has happened again.  I can receive but not send emails.  I've 
narrowed it down to not being able to send to outside email addresses. 
I thought I was seeing something relating to the email account I was 
sending from, but it turns out to be the same across the accounts.  Here 
is the error message.

"Can't send to ''.  The server gives this reason: '550 without 
authentication.'."

I exchanged a number of messages with support, but I haven't heard back 
from them since I found it was connected to the destination email address.

This is a bit odd.  Could it be that authentication somehow is messed up 
when sending emails outside your own server?

At one point we had submission port 587 enabled along with SSL, but 
Eudora says the certificate didn't match the destination host.  Even 
odder is that it says the error is ignored because the certificate is 
"trusted", but the connection timed out.  It presents a dialog asking if 
the certificate should be trusted in future sessions, but it doesn't 
matter what I select there, it always fails again.

Is Eudora getting too old to work well in the current environment?
