Eudora 5.2 and attachments

[David Chait]

Yes, Eudora has a problem with boundaries generation if a message is created
in a certain fashion (text, HTML, and attachment in one doc), this was
supposed to have been corrected with 5.2, however if the sender is on an
older version you are still SOL. Qualcomm is trying desperatly it seems to
get out of the Email client market from what I understand.
