Eudora... Now based on Mozilla Thunderbird. The Penelope project's intention is to join the
Eudora user experience with the Mozilla platform. We intend to produce a version of
Eudora that is open source and based on Mozilla and Thunderbird. It's *not* our intention to compete with Thunderbird; rather, we want to complement it.
We are committed to both preserving the
Eudora user experience and to maintaining maximum compatibility, for both developers and users, with Thunderbird. It is our goal to build a single development community around Thunderbird and
Eudora, so both mailers advance faster than they previously have.
Eudora has been a QUALCOMM product for many years. QUALCOMM continues to have a keen interest in the users of
Eudora, and is being kind enough to donate the time of staff members to the Penelope project.
WHAT'S NEW
Version 8.0b7:
Search Messages now uses the fast index if turned on in the preferences,
Advanced->General->Enable Global Search and Indexer. The checkbox
"Use indexed search" in the Search Messages can be used to turn this on/off.
Eudora now automatically checks if new Versions are available. A manual
check can be done by going to the Help menu and selecting Check for Updates.
