Well I didn’t like it cause of the ads.. Takes up storage space on the
hard drive and I realy don’t like it.. As far as problems well it used
to crash all the time. But it was about a year ago since I have used
eudora at home.. We use outlook at work.. I just have all email sent and
recived in plain text.. You can also configure your email not to run
scripts.. But you have to configure your browser to do it which effects
your email.. Its under the security settings

----------------------------------------
I have heard people comment on the fact that Eudora has some very
unexpected or non-standard behaviour. I don't remember the details of
what it was, but it sounded like a good reason not to use Eudora. Is
this something obvious enough that you can divine what it might be that
I have in mind?
Or might it be certain features it lacks that you'd normally expect
to have? I'm afraid I've forgotten what it was - but there was
something quite big against using it, and I remember at the time
mentally crossing it off my list of possible options.
I would still have to know how to convert my Outlook Express files
before I could even consider adopting another program. Or if I could
reliably convert the e-mail files to plain-text format and use a
text-editor or word-processor to read them, that would be even better;
and I could perhaps start again with a new program.
Regards,
Michael Edwards.
