Eudora 8.0b7

<< < (3/6) > >>

SKA:
The name Eudora 8 is a mistake - it's actually Thunderbird v2(I doubt its v3)  + Penelope extension to make it resemble Eudora v7.

I wait for MailForge(formerly Odysseus)  to get better (now at v1.3.3 , with a long way to go yet) - this is much closer to original Eudora than "Eudora 8" ever will be.

Well, I guess that explains why Eudora chokes on recent Thunderbird extensions (e.g., AdblockPlus).

Anyway, thanks for the heads up about MailForge.

I was wrong - "Eudora 8" is based on Thunderbird v3 (not TB v2) + Penelope.

Now I'm scratching my head about the incompatible Adblock extension. Since I use ad muncher on my main machine it is not an immediate problem. Possibly this is just an issue with the beta version.

Innuendo:
Yet another thanks. I'll wait for the end of the trial period and make a decision then ...  :D

While you're trialing The Bat! make sure you trial AntiSpamSniper for The Bat! as well. I wrote a comprehensive mini-review on this forum you should probably read.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic....
