How I've been testing Pandora Mail in parallel with Eudora

Alter purchasing a Pandora Mail licence (inexpensive), I carried out a migration to Pandora via it "Import Witch" (which took at least 18 hours because of the many gigabytes of messages that built up since starting with Eudora in 1998).

Here's how I've been running the two mail clients in parallel, according to a three-stage cycle.

STAGE 1
Use MailWasher to eliminate spam and any other unwanted messages:

STAGE 2
In Eudora, ensure that messages are left on the mail server when you read them in:

Go ahead and read the messages into Eudora:

STAGE 3
In Pandora, for the persona reading the messages ensure that they are not left on the mail server when they are read in. That is, the Leave mail on server option should be unchecked:

Go ahead and read the messages into Pandora, whereupon they will be removed from the mail server  ready to start the read-Eudora-then-Pandora cycle again.

By following this cycle you should accumulate the same incoming messages in both Eudora and Pandora, so that you hopefully haven;t lost any messages when you ultimately make the decision to stop using Eudora.
