Re: Leopard vs. Eudora

Actually, my original point still stands, t-bird's spam filter is better
than even apple's Mail (which is better than Eudora/spamsieve etc).

Also, T-bird is a lot more stable these days than it was in the last
revision. I'll admit that it's not perfect, and there are a few
interface things that bug me, but the spam filter and extensibility are
hard to beat for me. I don't particularly like Mail, but to be fair I
haven't looked at it in it's latest incarnation, so I should probably
look again. I run a lot of filters, tons of mail folders and have
multiple accts etc, so I'm probably not the best typical example.
