Mac Forum / Applications / Eudora / September 2006Unicode support?
Hi there, For many years I have used Eudora for Windows, but stopped using it 6 month ago because Eudora doesn't support UTF8. I am soon making a change of platforms, and going for a mac, and was wondering if Eudora for Mac has a better Unicode support? So, does it?

The upcoming E 7 is said to finally add that amongst other, major improvements.

Thanks for answering.

If they knew how many people outside english region tried Eudora, loved it, spared all their time to import their settings and gave up when they figure they are getting/sending junk characters to their participants/customers... Unicode is there , anyone could implement it even in Windows 95 ages. It is nothing but "there is no World outside USA" attitude. I have right to whine since I sure remember asking Qualcomm for Unicode or at least international charset (ISO stuff) support in 1997 or something. 9 years... Of course I will be installing Eudora 7 right away when it ships, especially after launching a "real" e-mail client as Mullberry/Eudora and figuring what Apple Mail.app did to my IMAP mailboxes. I was about to submit report to my shared server admin until figuring it is way Apple Mail.app works. No, no messages lost or something. Just... Inbox has Drafts,Sent,Junk INSIDE it. Hard to believe but true :) I lost messages while I tried to fix that mess though. Careful...

Just... Inbox has Drafts,Sent,Junk > INSIDE it. Hard to believe but true :) My IMAP provider purposefully makes the Drafts, Sent, Junk mailboxes as subfolders of the root INBOX (INBOX.Drafts, INBOX.Sent, etc.). My entering "INBOX" as the IMAP Path Prefix in the "Advanced" tab of the account preferences pane, Mail sticks them separately on the mailboxes pane (e.g. not as subfolders of inbox). Without more, it looks to me like it's doing exactly what it's supposed to do. - geoff > No, sadly not. The upcoming E 7 is said to finally add that > amongst other, major improvements. Fall 05! Is it just me or does it smell like Eudora is not being taken very good care of these last years?

Yes, we all have felt very frustrated over the slow pace of development. :-( SignatureKathy - If you're reading this in your web browser from Google or similar forum, NNTP "newsreaders" are a better way to access the content. <http://www.aptalaska.net/~kmorgan/how-it-works.html> Links to NNTP newsreaders at <http://www.newsreaders.com/> |
