====Question or Symptom====
When I use Eudora to start my internet connection I usually get the
following error. "Error involving Domain Name System. -3208 {tcp:1109}"
Why? What can I do about it? (Note: this is usually only on systems
running an OS older than MacOS 9).

====Resolution====
This is a known problem. Here's what happens. If you start Eudora before
having an internet connection and try to check mail or send mail the first
thing it does is do a DNS request. This triggers the TCP/IP layer of the
system to realize it needs to make a modem connection, which it does, but
often it takes longer than Eudora's timeout period for the DNS request.
Hence you get the "Error involving Domain Name Server". If you immediately
tried the same operation it would now succeed. The usual suggested work
around is get the connection up first before starting Eudora, or ignore
it's first complaint. Not particularly elegant, but I don't know of any
way to set the timeout on that DNS query from Eudora.

Qualcomm reports this error should be fixed in versions of Eudora >= 4.2.
You can try upgrading if you're running an earlier version of Eudora.
