I use Eudora 6.2.4 for Mac OS 10. I just received a message containing this note:

Is there a way to get Eudora to properly read MIME messages?

Just had a thought. Is it possible that the message is not a properly formatted MIME message, and Eudora is not at fault?

Yes. If you've ever received any messages with attachments, then
Eudora can indeed handle MIME multipart messages. It looks like the
message has some extra blank lines in the header before it gets to
the "Content-Type" header, so Eudora is (correctly) interpreting the
first blank line as the end of the headers. Without the Content-Type
header, Eudora doesn't think the message is MIME based.
