Adam,
Tiger Mail and Spotlight finally convinced me to switch over from my
ten year stint with Eudora. I had to recreate rules to route my mail
into dozens of mailboxen, and my Eudora nicknames were lost, but
otherwise well worth the investment of time. Set up an import
overnight, move over your addresses and rewrite your rules next day.
Mail's Applescript dictionary is quite good. Give it a try for a
week, and you won't look back.
I've never lost a message in Mail, but set your mail server to keep
messages for a week (or longer) before deleting. That way you'd
always be able to retrieve anything lost from the combination of your
regular backups and the recent stuff on the server. This way, you can
also use Eudora concurrently during your evaluation period,
downloading your new messages into both programs for safe keeping, or
for turning back if you decide Mail isn't working for you.
Just my two cents,
Rick

Actually, Paul, I am. Key issues in "better", however, are the
ability to import my mail from many years of Eudora in a bunch of
organized Mailboxen, reasonable filtering capability to keep mail
flowing to those boxen, and something as good or better than
Spamnix (Eudora's junk filtering doesn't cut it) to cull out the
spam. Scriptability would be nice too as I have several for Eudora.
I thought for a while that Mail might be my answer, but I still
read horror stories about folks losing mailboxes or losing all
their mail, so I haven't made the switch.

Which is really the unfortunate result of Qualcomm's porting it to
Windows. The Mac community isn't its main focus now. When I started
using Eudora, Steve Dorner was peddling it as shareware from the
University of Illinois. It's been a steady downhill slide into
unresponsive bloatware since. If I didn't have years of e-mail
under its wing, I'd bolt (if there was something any better to bolt
to, that is).
There is something better. Are you sure you're interested?
