Doesn't surprise me in the slightest (Qualcomm Exec: "Hmmm... We don't want to do Eudora anymore, but we don't want to take any potential PR hit... How do we come out smelling like roses without having to give up any of our IP?"), a full-fledged Cocoa Eudora would've been really nice. I've long since moved my personal email to Apple Mail for a multitude of reasons (price, convenience, functionality, little bit o' nostalgia for NeXTMail...), but I don't really work on my personal computer stuff as much as I would like (witness my horrible dereliction of my own blog - but recent events will be changing <i>that</i>, thankyouverymuch). Reason why I'm going on and on, is I've just moved my work email from Entourage to Apple Mail due to MailTags and Mail Act-On (I'm guessing maybe you read the same <a href="http://www.blueflavor.com/ed/tips_tricks/get_control_of_your_inbox.php">blarticle</a> that I did?). It rocks. Apple Mail is still a little on the pokey side (especially with Spotlight searches), but my workflow has improved.
