That is nice..I guess. It has been may years (5 or 6 if I remember right) since I used Eudora so I have totally forgotten about it. What are the pro´s of using it instead of Thunderbird?

 

There has always been a free version of Eudora. The only difference with the paid version is that there is a small panel with advertising in the free version - been using it for over 5 years.

 

Open-source could open whole new useful doorways, if they do as good a job as Firefox. I've used Eudora (sponsored mode) for years too, but there's been some bugs in it for ages that the Qualcomm crew can't seem to clean up (or for whatever reason won't).
