...And on a similar note:

<x-eudora-setting:354>
   Check to use shift-cmd-A for attach just like Apple's Mail
   application. Use cmd-H to hide application. Setting reversed; use
   "n" for ON, "y" for OFF!

>>Hmm, maybe the documentation is wrong, and that command doesn't do what it seems to say it does. At any rate, when I try to change it, it doesn't seem to affect either Check Mail (which works for me on 10.6.8 with either Cmd-M or Cmd-Shift-M) or New Message.
