As an Apple Certified Technician I am getting a ton of client complaints regarding Eudora, especially in the last few weeks. I liked Eudora in 1996. But it was always glitchy for me. For some reasons a certain percentage of people LOVE it and would never switch. But isn't Eudora just a different GUI over Thunderbird now? >From Wikipedia: "On October 11, 2006, Qualcomm announced that future versions of Eudora would be based on the same technology platform as Mozilla Thunderbird and be open source. The current codename for this project is "Penelope". Penelope is developed by the Mozilla Foundation, and the project is being led by the former Qualcomm team, including original developer Steve Dorner." I never really liked Eudora because it was freeware written for a University and it was not polished. I equated it to Norton. I spent more time troubleshooting those two programs than any others. I personally hate apple's mail client as well. When people's mail boxes get too large it tends to crash and lockup etc. That's why I use the "evil" Entourage. It can handle anything I throw at it. 50 mailboxes, 8 mailing lists, 100 filters etc. Never an issue. Oh, it's not free though.
