Subject: [Leica] OT: Eudora email program (an alternative)

I use Mailsmith from Bare Bones Software and find it to be a very very
good piece of software. Coupled with SpamSieve I seldom see any spam
these days except to do a few quick searches in the even that an
unexpected piece was mis-filed. (Damn those spammers.)

Mailsmith ONLY does text mail although you can view HTML messages
using your web browser and see the text (if there is any) in the
window. It is designed to be AppleScripted which is a very nice
feature if you do automation. Although I use google's gmail for this
list I do everything else with Mailsmith.

I'm not affilliated with Bare Bones in any way -- just a happy user of
a power product. They provide scripts for importing Eudora mail and
mail from Entourage and a few others.

Their text editor (primarily for web designers and programmers) BBedit
is the standard on the Mac even though SOME people use the Terminal
window and EMACS.
