I've been using Eudora several hours a day since at least 1998. And I just installed the 8.0 beta on windows 11 and have been successfully migrating my mailboxes (all 700 of them, carefully nested - so I'm taking about 30 turns to do that, so as not to crash the system).
However Eudora 8 won't check my email - it gets stuck logging into the server. I contacted my email host about setting it up for IMAP since on Windows 10 I used pop, but they said I had everything set fine, including one port change they told me to make, which I did.
Some of the Eudora discussions suggest installing Hermes first, but others say that Hermes hasn't been upgraded in several years, and Eudora 8 is more uptodate - and in fact I couldn't install Hermes because I got the error message that I already have more recent version of its key files installed.
Anyway, I'm looking for help in being able to check my email (about 100+ a day) on Windows 11. In the meantime, I'm having to use my previous Eudora as an archive and find a new email program to start anew.
I loved Eudora better than any emailer I ever used. Bring back Eudora. I miss you terribly. I still have emails in there and keep a record of so many things.
Linda Baldwin,
No email program comes close to Eudora. Extremely fed-up and disgusted with Outlook. Bring back Eudora and charge for the service and I will pay for each of my staff to have it on their computer and Android.
