Mozilla Quietly Resurrects Eudora

from the thunderous-applause dept.

Mozilla Communications Software
Stony Stevenson writes to mention that the Mozilla Foundation has 
quietly released the first beta version of the revised Eudora email 
application. This is the first development Eudora has seen since 
Qualcomm stopped development and turned it over to the open source 
community in 2006. "Eudora first appeared in 1988 and quickly became one 
of the first popular email applications, enjoying its heyday in the 
early 1990s as it developed over the early days of the internet. Use of 
Eudora began to wane in the mid-1990s as the third-party application was 
muscled out of the market by web-based services such as Hotmail and 
bundled applications such as Outlook." Linux.com has a bit more 
explanation about why many may not consider this simply a new release of 
Eurdora. According to the release page the new Eudora application is not 
intended to compete with Thunderbird, but instead to complement it.

So I wonder if it runs on Windows 98... Any comment Ed?? :)
