Eudora Mail Folders

Date: 16/11/2003

Two Scribe users have found that Eudora folders don't import well as MBOX files, which is what they advertise themselves to be.

I've looked into this 'abnormality' and found that the email stored in the folder file is incorrectly encoded. Eudora must discard the parts of the message that it doesn't want and then ignore the encoding errors and 'guess' the type of data stored in the body of the message. This is all fine for Eudora but I personally like standards. *hmph*

Anyway I don't think it's going to kill Scribe to guess at the content type if it's wrong in the headers. I'll post a fix for this in the next release.
