It would be great to see a table comparing the features of (a) Eudora OSE, (b) Eudora v7 (old) (c) Thunderbird, in particular, highlighting differences. --Iantresman 09:42, 27 November 2010 (PST)

The Eudora OSE and Documentation Project pages both list features that are not found in Thunderbird. For the most part, these features are also found in the classic commercial versions of Eudora, though their implementation might not be identical. The Documentation Project page is a comprehensive index linking to detailed explanatory pages, while the main Eudora OSE page has feature summaries and thumbnail illustrations.
Since classic Eudora was a product that was developed continually over almost two decades, it's not really practical to compare its rich feature set to Eudora OSE (or Thunderbird).

Old Eudora v7 showing inbox and outbox summaries, tiled one above the other

One of the features I most liked about the old Eudora v7, was the ability to display both the inbox summary and outbox summary, at the same time, one above the other (click thumbnail for details). Thunderbird does not do this, does anyone know whether Eudora OSE can? --Iantresman 09:57, 27 November 2010 (PST)

Eudora OSE can do something similar, but not floating them in the same window the way your screenshot shows. Under Tools > Options > Extras, simply uncheck "Open mailboxes in tabs" and mailboxes will open in their own separate windows.
