No error message? Nothing in Eudora's log?

I had that problem for a while and it nearly drove me mad. But it was as
I recall a problem with the Other Personality's mail server - I thought
it was configured right but it wasn't. Is the Other Personality going
out through a different mail server? I can't remember exactly how I
fixed it now. I seem to remember that I actually had to tweak something
in Dominant's settings when I expected it to be in the other one.

Not much help I know, except that I can guarantee it's fixable!

Command/E is "Queue for delivery" on my Eudora. Perhaps you need to use
Command/- (Send queued messages).

NB, these might be different if you have Eudora set to send messages
immediately. I have it set to queue messages.

I did not have "send immediately" checked off in those personalities. When I
checked it the problem I could send the messages. I still don't understand why
changing the status or hitting cmd-E didn't send them. Seems like a bug to me.

"change status" is simply not meant to send messages - you can change
from "sendable" to "queued" or vice versa. "Sendable" seems to apply to
messages that (for instance) you have drafted and put in your outbox but
want to edit further before sending, while "queued" will go next time
you send messages, whenever that happens to be.

What you may want to do is "change queuing", which offers options "don't
send", "send immediately", "send next time messages are sent", and "send
on or after a certain time".

Cmd-E won't send unless you have the settings arranged to do so, as has
been pointed out. Some people like to send messages immediately, some
prefer to queue them for later sending.

What seems possible to me is that, since you are looking at a secondary
personality, you may not have checked "send mail whenever sends are
done".
