Comments on: Cocoa Eudora? http://aldoblog.com/2005/05/cocoa-eudora/ Michael Alderete’s Weblog Sun, 12 Oct 2008 20:23:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.2 By: La Vie Viennoise http://aldoblog.com/2005/05/cocoa-eudora/#comment-5658 La Vie Viennoise Wed, 02 Nov 2005 02:00:21 +0000 http://aldoblog.com/blog/470#comment-5658 Looking forward to this! Nothing like Eudora for industrial-weight email work. Built-in spam filter, possible minimalist interface (I have no buttons, only menus), x-settings to configure everything under the sun, ultrafast search. I've actually stopped filing email except by time received as the search function is quick enough that I can bring up anything I need fast enough just by searching on the right six mont period. I totally agree that no slowdown or user interface candy required. Just bare cocoa functionality and look. Looking forward to this! Nothing like Eudora for industrial-weight email work.

Since Eudora was my first and pretty much only email GUI client until <a href="http://upsodoun.com/brian/musings/archives/2004/12/01/g-o-t-y-e-r-l-i-t-t-l-e-k-n-o-w-n-o-s-x-h-i-n-t-s-r-i-g-h-t-h-e-r-e/">about 5 months ago</a>, I've been missing some of the UI and feature-set. Lord knows the new interface on Mail with its rather ugly chicklet-style buttons is not getting me all that enthused. I would've thought for sure QUALCOMM would kill Eudora before investing in a complete Mac client rewrite. Glad to know I'm wrong! That’s very interesting news indeed.
