Where are the new features? This is just a list of bug fixes. I do not mind paying for a genuine version upgrade but to be asked to fork out money for a bunch of bug fixes seems like a rip off to me. quallcon should justify their decision to make this a whole new version - ie by providing at least one of the much requested features such as address book integration. I'll stick to eudora 5.2 for now for all that it is buggy as hell.

Why is this a V6, and thus to upgrade one must pay again! - White Rose

Given the 12 month subscription model they've had in place for a while, you
shouldn't have to pay if you bought it in the last year. And you should if you
bought more than a year ago. And if you don't mind the ad window (which is
much less annoying on Mac OS than on Windows), then you don't have to pay at
all. It's basically the Opera model.

And it's certainly been a long time since 5.x first came out. I thought new
development was dead.
