    From welkinator@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jul 8 11:35:14 2021
    Arrrggghhhh - I've used Eudora for decades (seems, centuries) and have
    fought my way through all the iterations of Windows. And the
    Certs/stunnel "fixes".

    Four days ago the above error occurred and rebooting the computer put
    things right.

    Last night MightySoft decided to again "update" my Win 10 and this
    morning I can't resolve the 10053 error even with rebooting. It errors instantly - no waiting.

    I've searched this forum and Googled online - and I'm a former
    computer tech though more hardware than soft - and I can't find a
    starting point to tease out the cause and solution.

    Help..... Please!

    Ouch, ouch! I "unpinned" Eudora from my Win Task Bar thinking it would
    reappear on my desktop where I could look at its properties... but
    nooooooo. It's gone!

    When I go to E...exe I get the certs error. There must have been a
    appendage to the exe in the shortcut which is now gone and, after all
    these years (!) I no longer remember. Maybe to call Stunnel?

    Ahhhh, solved.

    I went to https://sourceforge.net/projects/hermesmail/files/HermSSL.zip/download

    then tried to run the program. Which failed as I already had
    ?MushySoft Something? installed and running.

    So I just coppied all the file in the extraction folder into Eudora
    allowing to replace as required.

    Et voila!

    Maybe this will help someone else.
