Apple Events have a default time-out of 60 seconds. The way around it 
is to either ignore the response, which is not handy in your case:

	tell application "Eudora Pro"
		ignoring application responses
			connect with checking and sending
		end ignoring
	end tell

or extend the timeout to your own value:

	tell application "Eudora Pro"
		with timeout of 1800 seconds -- a half hour should be plenty!
			connect with checking and sending
		end timeout
	end tell


Hope this helps
