January 14, 2002 Resending an Email Message

Here's another plug for one of my favorite alternative applications. On tonight's show, a caller to Leo's Bootcamp asked how to resend an e-mail message using Outlook Express. There was no easier way than to forward the message, delete the extra text, and then re-enter the address. Eudora (including the free version that I use) does this easily by opening the sent message in your Out box, right-clicking anywhere in the message window, and selecting "resend". You can download Eudora at Eudora.com. Eudora also has much better application, EIS, for synching e-mail on your Palm OS PDA.

In the ending e-mail segment, a viewer wanted to know how to deal with a scandisk problem. Scandisk would stall each time, and wouldn't allow the computer to boot to Windows. Leo recommended disabling Scandisk in the msdos.sys file. It doesn't seem to have made it into the show notes, so here's a Screen Savers article on how to do this: How Do You Disable ScanDisk?
