So Gene, are you saying you can use Eudora OSE as the front-end for Gmail and leave your Gmail e-mail on the web?
I used Eudora for ages at home but when Gmail came on board, starting leaving all mail in the cloud instead of downloading it. I prefer it that way.
Thanks,
Steve
PS - Ken, thanks for the info about the paid mode now being freely available. (Doh! I documented Eudora '96-'99, worked at Qualcomm '93-'03, but have been out of touch with the whole open source transition since the mid-2000's. I have 20 years' worth of archived mail, kept it going through 3 PC generations. Got a new PC early this year and have yet to move my Eudora mail over to it -- I was dreading having to do the install and hunt down the paid code that I got years ago!! Btw, my favorite feature has always been the search -- lightning fast. But I lament that the desktop client has faded from relevance. But it will always be one of the greatest software programs ever invented.:)

The current OSE version of Eudora is built on Thunderbird code with a
Eudora UI skin and features added. Some formerly Eudora-only features have
eventually become TB features. I tried both, and it really comes down to
personal preference on UI. I like the fact that I can rearrange the TB
menus to match most other readers (in my case, my TB UI is laid out a lot
like Outlook 2007, which is what I have to use at work).
