Look Under your C:\Eudora Folder

Then copy to a floppy the following files:

In.mbx
In.toc

Out.mbx
Out.toc

And if you have created any other new mailboxes in Eudora then those files will have the name of the mailbox you created with a .mbx and a .toc extenstion.
for example if you added another email box called work to put all your work emails in then you'd copy the work.mbx and the work.toc files to your floppy.

Then when you get everythiung re-installed just copy those files back to c:\eudora and re-start Eudora.
