Wonderful, Jay!

I've been using Eudora since Apple ][c with handbuilt 1200/75 modem, and will stick with OS 10.6.8 until Eudora surfaces in a Mavericks or greater, version.

I too, would be happy to pay, and beta test!

Best wishes,

James



Now that MailForge is dead, I've been pondering...

How many people would be interested in a faithful reproduction of Mac Eudora 6.2? 10? 100?, 1000?

Probably 100, by the likes of the FB page.

I use Mac Eudora v6.2 every day, since the mid 90s. I'm a pro software developer. I have built stuff of this complexity a number of times over, including a Mac email client a loooong time ago for Digital Equipment Corporation. It's not easy to build a replacement. It would take EASILY over a year for me to do it. If I did do it, I'd stick to keeping the same workflow and features, and simply just "Freshen-up" the look and feel (but not change it like MailForge did).

Thoughts, comments? Collaborators? -- I'd do this project open source, because I love Eudora mail and want it to live on indefinitely.

We thought that MailForge could fill the gap, but after 5 years they are still in beta.

Why FB? I think it is a good tool to get figure out how many really need a true Eudora replacement.

What if you don't do Facebook? I'm in the market for a new email client,
and would LOVE to see a reincarnation of Eudora.

I used the Eudora - Thunderbird add-on for a while, but things got a bit
squirrely when Thunderbird started the forced update cycle.
