Hi Diana, If you’re moving to Mail from Eudora, skip Mail’s built-in importing feature and instead use the free utility Eudora Mailbox Cleaner. In addition to being much faster than importing, it handles attachments, nicknames, and filters—all in one pass. If you’re moving from Eudora to Mail, this utility painlessly converts your mailboxes and messages (including attachments!), nicknames, and even filters to work with Mail and Address Book.
