Product Description:

Eudora Mailbox Cleaner is a simple drag'n'drop application which helps you migrating your mail and related data between different client programs. Contrary to most other solutions, it preserves message status flags (read, replied) and re-attaches attachments Eudora stripped from incoming messages. It supports migrating data from Eudora (both, Mac and Windows versions) and Thunderbird to Apple Mail or Thunderbird.

What's new in this version:

Improvements/bugfixes:

  • Fix table_of_contents creation on system 10.3.x - due to a change in CodeWarrior 9, the time stamp inside the file was written in the local time zone instead of UTC. Mail on 10.2.x had no problem with this but on 10.3.x the complete TOC would be rejected as malformed resulting in all messages being shown as unread.
    Import to Mail in 10.3.x was probably broken (status flags not preserved) since version 4.4.1 - testing on old system versions is somewhat of a hassle and has lower priority.
  • Don't truncate long subject headers if the original header was wrapping around multiple lines.
  • Fix conversion of multipart/digest messages - you should no longer see random headers within the message text.
  • Reduce number of reads when reading message information from Eudora's TOC - read all information for one message at once instead of reading the individual pieces. This makes the code much cleaner and easier to maintain and possibly enhance.
  • Properly identify recognized *.toc files and empty files during the initial scanning phase instead of listing them as "unknown format" in the log file.

Changing email clients is rare and a usually a one-off exercise. It also a real pain.
Converted 13 years of Eudora mail across 10 mailboxes with attachments and read/reply marks.
The attachments didn't come through first time so deleted the imported Apple Mail folder & started again - 2nd time worked perfectly/

Eudora Mailbox Cleaner Usage TipBetter organization of the directions will improve the product - Version: 4.9, 4/7/2009 11:33PM PST

I read the directions more than once. If they could be organized better, they might be easier to understand. Since this is a "get it right the first time" process, a clearer layout of the steps will help a user to feel more confident before committing himself.

Eudora Mailbox Cleaner ReviewPC Eudora 7 to OS X Mail -- flawless migration - Version: 4.9, 4/7/2009 11:22PM PST

With a little careful reading of the instructions, and even as a newbie Mac user, EMC imported some 7 years' (230 mailboxes) of mail from PC Eudora to OS X Apple Mail. The two scripts included in the package automated rebuilding of the imported mailboxes and edited and activated imported filters.

This program is the only one I've seen that does the whole job with very little effort on your part. And I've looked.

Congratulations to Aamann on a superb program. I'll send him a donation.
