Not really an oversight, Paul, although it would be better for Eudora 
Users if the files were of type TEXT. The problem is that they would 
not then be recognised by Entourage as MBOX files since Entourage 
goes entirely by the file type, not by the internal structure of the 
file.

So, change them to TEXT and they are recognised by other progs but 
not by E, or leave the file type as MBOX and they are recognised by E 
but not by others - quite a dilemma!
