One of Yahoo or Eudora seem to mishandle this setup (RFC 1521). I am
not an expert, but given that I have had problems with the new Yahoo
mail (ugh!) I'd be inclined to blame them.

My troubles have been with multipart/mixed messages with multiple
parts as Content-disposition: inline. They don't let me see the raw
email either (unlike gmail).

That particular feature is available in Mutt. On the other hand, why
not give gmail a go? I love it (have moved all my non-work emails
there; work is still on Outlook+Exchange).

Thunderbird sucks at various levels. :)
