Do you have the full version of Eudora installed?
If so, look in the options>tools menus and you'll find a bit about sending mail. It says something like (and I'm guessing cos I'm at work and don't have it here) 'domain to use for unqualified addresses'. The field is probably blank and is only there to override Eudora's assumptions. If you don't add a different domain in that field Eudora will assume that if you don't add the back half of addresses (after @) that you are sending to someone with the same server settings as yourself. I guess from what you say that you're using cricketmx as your main e-mail account so Eudora is probably assuming unqualified addresses are at cricketmx. Sooo.... as far as I can tell without seeing your setup is, all you need to do is use the full address of the recipient when you write new e-mail. If this seems like hard work to you - don't despair. In the first place Eudora has an address book just as most other e-mail clients do. Use it. Addresses in the book can "auto-complete" when you start typing them in the To: field. Secondly, Eudora remembers who you have previously mailed (from addresses in your in and out boxes) even if their address isn't in the book and can still auto-complete.
The password authentication shouldn't be a problem as long as you have set Eudora to remember your password. If not, you'll have to type it every time you want to access your mailbox. I've never had it refuse to send mail without a password.
