Subject: serious bug in Eudora Pro 3.0.2(16)

Dear Tech Support:

The tool bar FRONT ARROW and BACK ARROW do not
work properly any longer (immediately above 
"RR").  They cycle into and out of the same message, 
contrary to prior functionality.  Pointers are
obviously getting fouled, somewhere.

-and-

The serious problem with Address Book persists,
even after I test it step-wise with the following
changes:

1.  archive IN.MBX and IN.TOC
    (MOVE to DOS subdirectory)

    Result: no change

    Hypothesis:  software stack is full


2.  archive OUT.MBX and OUT.TOC
    (MOVE to DOS subdirectory)

    Result: no change

    Hypothesis:  software stack is full


3.  reduce NNDBASE.TXT to a single list,
    with no other entries

    Result: no change

    Hypothesis:  software stack is full


Here are the results of three consecutive
DOS DIR commands, re-routing output into
the DOS file DIR.TXT:


C:\EUDORA> dir *.mbx >dir.txt

                     220,856,320 bytes free


Please help me with this problem.
I need a fix immediately, or I need
to revert back to 3.0.1, but I do 
not know how to do the latter without
running the risks of clobbering
something.

HELP!!
