	I'm certainly confused.
	This could either be a new lease of life for a great email 
client that was shackled to a company with minimal interest in it, or 
it could be simply abandonment.
	Eudora is the best email client I have found for people that 
get really large quantities of mail, and like to store in on the 
local machine. (a category that includes me). I've been using it for 
well over a decade now, and there is a lot of inertia holding me back 
from changing (and besides, I don't know what to change to). But I 
have no idea what this announcement means - especially as the 
official line from Qualcomm had been that they were cocoa-ifying it, 
and it would be released any day now - and suddenly its all many 
months away, and Thunderbird based. I can only assume the 
Cocoa-ifying project went horribly horribly wrong....
	Cheers
