If it's just a question of trying to import too much mail at once, you can
always move some of your mailboxes out of the Eudora folder where they're
stored, import *some* of your mail, and then move the imported boxes out and
the non-imported boxes back in and and import those. The folder in question
is ~/Documents/Eudora Folder/Mail Folder.   Unless you're on a really old
Eudora on OS9, and then that Eudora Folder will be in your System folder ->
Preferences.
