Nicknames


Many of you have your own personal phone or address book filled with friends, business or other acquaintances. In the electronic environment, you can also create your own personal address book.
Nicknames is an important function. If you send mail to certain individuals on a more frequent basis, you can create a shortcut by selecting Nicknames in the Window menu.

Nickname commands:
 
1 Add a Nickname by clicking the New button and type in the appropriate email address.
2 To change a nickname, click on the Rename button.
3 To delete a nickname, click on the Remove button.
4 You can also group e-mail addresses together. This function is useful when you need to send the same message to many people. For example, you can group by a department (youth, housing), as an organizational list (Asian Pacific Healthcare Venture), or by subcommittee (APPCON Telecommunications).
5 To group these lists together, give it a nickname, for example APPCON. Then in the address(es) dialog box, type all the appropriate e-mail addresses that you would like to group together, for example bill@ltsc, debbie@csc.apnet.org, johann@ltsc.org.
6 When you send a new message, type in a Nickname. Eudora will send it to the designated address. This is good for people that have trouble remembering long email addresses!
