I removed the instructions for Eudora Rescue since there's already an excellent README on the product website. Sorry I forgot to include this in the Summary field. --hao2lian

I am merely a lurker on this site. However have updated the page after a wonderful experience. After no luck at all migrating from Eudora to Thunderbird on WinXP using any Windows tools listed, I found a (kludge) solution that worked. I exported my Windows Eudora directory to a Mac, used "Eudora Mailbox Cleaner" (following the instructions) on the Mac and then exported the result back to Thunderbird on the Windows box. It worked beautifully... -Dan

This article needs updating with regard to import problems like when data is not in standard location, or when eudora is not installed. I'll do a little cleanup, but probable more is needed. Related info: - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274021#c6 not given the option to select desired Eudora directory to import mail from if several Eudora installations (profiles) exist - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=368634 Importer (Win Eudora, Address Book). Unable to import if Eudora is using '.nnt' format - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=280006#c6 - http://alma.ch/blogs/bahut/2007/09/importing-eudora-address-books-into.html Wsm 17:08, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
