I've been using the Eudora email client for Windows since 1998.
The paid (Eudora Pro) version reached version 7.1.0.9 before Qualcomm decommitted the product in 2006, but like others I kept using Eudora because it has some features that competitive email clients simply can't match. It still works very well, even now in 2021, but in a couple of areas such as UTF-8 character encoding its age is showing.
.A few days ago I purchased a licence for the Pandora Mail client, and as you can see its UI looks quite similar (but certainly is not identical):
it's my intention in this new blog of mine to document my experiences with migration from Eudora to Pandora and then, over time, to share my ongoing experiences/opinions of Pandora Mail's current features and discuss ways that Pandora might be enhanced.
It's early days. So far, I have use its "Importing Witch" to migrate all my Eudora mailboxes, Contacts, Labels and Messages:
However the "witch" seems to fail in migrating Eudora's mail Filters. Over the decades with Eudora I have set up many fulters to handle incoming/outgoing mail messages (hundreds of them). I consider Eudora's implementation of filters yo be one of the features that distinguish Eudora significantly from all the other email clients that I've tested.
For me. not getting the filters migrated over to Pandora Mail could well be a showstopper. I've a;ready filed a bug report with Brana, Pandora's developer, who has sent an initial reply to start a support dialog. Watch this blog for further news.
