I've been using eudora for years. Was at 5.1 or 5.2 but decided to
upgrade to 7.1. I have spam filtered email so saw no reason to
purchase "paid" mode again, am running in sponsored.

Since advertisers have been removed, am wondering if there is a way to
close the "Eudora" window. I guess it doesn't hurt anything other than
it takes room and stays on top. Since Eudora no longer uses
advertisers, I'm wondering if there is a work around in the registry
or in the ini file that would simply eliminate the "eudora logo"
window?

Thanks,
ga

Wise decision!

All sales (and advertising) ended in April 2007, so there is
no more "purchasing" -- Eudora has ever since been entirely free.

Right-click within "ad" window, un-check "Allow docking."

Click as high as possible within colored "title bar" of "ad" window,
then drag as far downward as possible -- the "ad" window
usually then disappears behind most people's "Windows Taskbar."

A slight re-drag (a half-second task) may be warranted
on new launches of Eudora.
