You mean they should make no attempt to import even the messages that Eudora has thankfully left in one piece just to be sure they don't allow the mangled ones to come in? Ever heard the phrase "throwing out the baby with the bath water"? > Either they have an importer that _works_, or they should remove it > altogether. I couldn't disagree more. The importer works. Perhaps they might get round to adding some intelligent parsers to make up for Eudora's shortcomings in how it stored HTML messages, but IMO it's up to Eudora to offer ways of exporting those messages in unadulterated format too. They ripped the format apart in storing them in the first place. If there's no indicator in the message that it's in some kind of rich text format, TB's importer has to jump through hoops of artificial intelligence to work out which messages are or aren't in such a format before it can do something other than simply import what is there. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
