Many present-day virtual hosting servers use the same trick.
I also have recollections of tweaking old-Eudora's settings
by editing the text files directly as opposed to using the
user interface.
Eudora remains pleasantly text-based under the hood to
this day; right now on the bench I'm setting up a nifty
dual-CPU Mac G5 and transferring the user's Eudora
mailboxes and all their settings from Windows to OS X
without a hitch.
